The SUte Department today .receiv
ed a lengthy communication from The
Hague. It Is understood ,to contain
the official attitude of the, Dutch
government on the seizure of the
Dutch ships by the United States and
Great Britain. ,
Unofficial dispatches from The
Hague have stated that-the foreign
office there has characterized the
seizure as "an ac,t of violence which
It will oppose-with' all the energy
of Its conviction and Its wounded na
tional feeling.' It also declares that
the seizure was'unjuetined.
Officials asld that the attitude of
the Dutch government would not
change -the situation. The action of
this Government, It was. stated, was
taken only- after the entire situation
had been Investigated .and there would
be no change In policy. Officials re
gret the Dutch position, but say that
nothlns- further can be don to
change, the "Views of the officials of j
the little Kingdom.
Officials are Inclined to believe that
the Dutch position la dominated by
Berlin, and resent the Implication that
this Government did not set in good
faith. The declaration by the Dutch
government that the United States
could be expected to violate Its prom
ises and seize ships sent here for
grain has displeased many officials.
However, under direct Intructlons
they refuse to discuss the situation
in any way.
There has been a report current
here for the last few days that Hol
land has been considering withdraw
ing her minister and breaking diplo
matic relations as ' a protest against
American action. However, It Is not
expected that the- Dutch government
la ready to go that far inasmuch as
such' action would lead to compli
cations with the entente. The situa
tion between' the two countries, how
ever. Is decidedly serious and officials
say that It will have' to be handled
with extreme delicacy.
