The Chargé in Germany (Kirk) to the Secretary of State

2314. My 2152, November 28, 2 p.m. I have been orally informed by the Foreign Office that the Prize Commissioner has released the Danish ships Delaware and Frode carrying wood pulp to the United States and that several more vessels will be released in the very near future. It was stated that although German Consuls in the United States had not reported the arrival of all the eight vessels named in my 2076, November 12 [17], 6 p.m. a sufficient number of these ships had unloaded in American ports to justify the release of further vessels.
