WASHINGTON,

Oct.
31:
The
United
States
Navy
announced
today
the
loss
of
the
first
U.
S.
warship
in
this
war
when
the
destroyer
Reuben
James
was
a
victim
of
torpedoing
to
the
west
of
Iceland
last
night.
The
first
reports
brought
no
word
of
the
pos-.
sible
loss
of
life.
The
ship
carried
six
officers
and
114
men.
'
Unlike
the
destroyer
Kearney,
which
survived
i
a
torpedo
blow
amidships
on
October
17,
but
lost
,
eleven
men,
the
older
Reuben
James
went
to
the
bot-,
torn
when
struck.
The
navy
said
she
was
convoying
!
in
the
north
Atlantic.
Later
this
morning
President
Roosevelt
said
he
'
saw
no
possibility
of
severing
diplomatic
relations
,
with
Germany
and
he
thought
there
has
been
no
.
change
in
United
States
policy
as
a
result
of
the
loss
of
the
American
destroyer
and
other
attacks
on
American
vessels.
He
said
he
had
no
details
of
the
loss
other
than
as
announced
by
the
