The City of Rome Should Have Remained on the Spot

Washington, Sept. 26 (AP)—The steamship City of Rome should have remained on the spot unless urgently impelled to leave, after ramming the submarine S-51 last night, secretary Wilbur said today.

The conduct of the captain of the City of Rome, the secretary added, would be inquired into in connection with the investigation that would be ordered, and if it was found there had been any criminal act of negligence on his part, action would be taken against him.
