STRONG DENIAL MADE
BY COMPANY OFFICER
OF ANY VIOLATIONS
NEW YORK. May *.— Assertion that
none of the ships of the American
Trans-Atlantic Company, had at any
time supplied German submarines was
made here today by the company's pres
•dent. Richard Q. Wagner. The story
told by members of the crew of the
steamship Manitowoc at Porto Rico, he
characterized as pure "fiction” told
probably because '"the crew waa dis
gruntled."
“If the government is investigating
our ships now we do not know it,” Mr.
Wagner said. “We have no.thlng to
conceal.
“We were advised by the captain of
the Manitowoc, about April 21 and 22
that the navy department was detain
ing his ship at St. Thomas. We tele
graphed an Inquiry to the navy depart
ment, and the department asked us to
show our manifest. We did and we
were at once notified that our ship had
been released.
“When the Manitowoc left New York
for Buenos Aires, she carried a -gen
eral cargo, Including cotton goods, au
tomobile parts, and so on, and carried
only enough coal for steaming pur
poses. She put in at Norfolk to take
more coal.
“Our company Is on the British trado
blacklist. The British control the
South American coal' aupply and as
our ship would have been unable to
get fuel at Buenos Aires it was neces
sary to replenish at St. Thomas.
“I deny absolutely'that any cargo has
been carried on any of our ships at any
time that did not appear on the mani
fests, and I deny that any of our ships
has at any time furnished supplies to a
German submarine.

Near and far, loving messages are sped; charm

plants, exquisite baskets and special boxes of
freshest cut flowers, filled to the brim with rever
ent, loyal affection.
Thrilled are the hearts of the senders, for ever
before them they see the glowing face of the
mother as she bends her face to the flowers and
her eyes grow dim with rejoicing, for always to
a mother are flow'ers a cherished possession.
