WASHINGTON,
Nov.
29. — As an example of
unusual occurrences that
find th eir way into rou­
tine Government report
may be cited a recent
paragraph received from
a ship which sends w’eatli-
er observations at regular
intervals to the Federal
W eather Bureau.
This ship, the Ameri­
can steam ship W est No-
m e n tu m ,' en route from
Yokohama to
Portland,
Oregon, was anchored
off Davao, Mindanao, P.
I., about half a mile from
shore one July morning
this past Summer
Cap­
tain L. Oetting, who was
on the bridge winding
the ship's chronom eters,
suddenly observed count­
less dark objects circling
around the ch art room.
Investigation showed that
action was necessary, and
the chart room doors
were hastily closed, for
the visitors were bees.
Some
m inutes
later
they located them selves
on the top end of one of
the ship's booms in front
of the bridge.
