Hint For Holland
∙And Germany?
WASHINGTON,' (UP — By AIR EXPRESS). American naval manoeuvres off the Dutch West Indies suggested that.the Navy may be preparing to de- fend the strategle Caribbean islands if Holland is drawn into the European war.
President Roosevell said at his press conference that 22 naval vessels of the Atlantie squadron manoeuvring in the Caribbean will opernte off and out of the Dutch islands of Curaeno, Aruba, Bonnaire and St. Eustatius. He said that this was no more than routine training.
Moro Than Coincidenco
The Navy and State Department refused to comment. Diplomatic circles, however, speculated that as- sembly of the Atlantic squadron near the Dutch islands following recent Dutch military defence measures, might be more than coincidence.
Recently George A. Gordon, United States minister to The Nellierlands conferred with Queen Wilhelmina at The Hague. The White House never disclosed the nature of the confer- enee, but it was considered possible now that it concerned American
naval operations in the West Indies.
The incident recalled Mr. Roose- velt's declaration shortly after the outbreak of the European war that the United States, under the Monroe Doctrine, would not countenance:
1 Transfer of any western hemis- phere territory from, one European ruation to another.
2. Transfer of any western hemis- phere territory to A non-American
