GANADA'S TROUBLE WAITING FOR OFFICIAL REPORTS
In Washington the State Department has not yet received a demand for the release of the Canadian vessel Black Diamond but expects one once Britain learns officially of the seizure. Officials say no serious trouble is anticipated with Great Britain as preserving seals aids global commerce. Assistant Secretary Batchellor notes the Treasury did not engage in diplomacy and the President’s proclamation will be enforced. The seal habit is to breed and then be hunted when not with young, with strict limits on female catches to protect the stock. England cannot afford widespread destruction of the seals. A report has been sent to Victoria for a note of the affair, and a strong remonstrance will follow upon receipt.
