city grew steadily.
A mill whistle, called Reveral score

trucks brought In all manner of sup
plies. Many of the 1,500 resident
returned to the ruins of their homes.
Three other mills are scheduled to
reopen tomorrow.
Lone chimneys were being pulled
down and streets cleared of debris.
The ruins of hundreds of homes were
combed for human bones.
Many wild Rumors.
Foresters, residents, state police,
CCC boys and volunteers from near
by towns labored together as city of
ficials pondered plans for reconstruc
tion. An emergency county commit
tee awaited action on rehabilitation
surveys before swinging to support
of the city.
Many wild rumors of Incendiarism
continued, but state police denied
they had made any arrests.
Hundreds of women and children
were milling around-relief headquar
ters, discussing the tragic deaths and
exchanging stone, including the ap
parently authentic report Miss Ida
Hill lost her life when she waa trap
ped Inside her house as she tried
to push a washing machine through
the door. She had Just bought the
machine arter washing for others for
years by hand.
Women Save Homes.
Several houses of the community
proper, across the river from Bandon,
were still standing due to women
climbing roofs and stamping out
sparks while the men fought In the
forest nearby.
Contrary to denials, a few persons
actually fled to Coos Bay Sunday and

Holy Land in Turmoil
Over Jewish Immigration;
Britain Sends Troops
Danger of General Uprising Endangers Long
Mandate Granted by League Nations;
No Peaceful Solution Seen
(Editor's Note: Martial law Is ordered for the Holy Land as Great
Britain strives to end the terrorism of the Arab's war against Jewish im
migration. Edward J. Nell, Associated Press war correspondent, on his way
from covering the Italo-Ethioplan conflict, spent two months In the Holy
Land with both British and Arab forces and In the following story gives
a picture of the Arab-Jewish background as gathered first hand.)
By KWKAlin J. NEIL
Associated Press Sinff Writer
NEW YORK, Oct. 1. (AP) Nine
teen years have passed since Field
Marshal Allenby stormed Jerusalem
with British and Arab forces, bring
ing Turkish domination of centuries
to an end. Today martini law cul
minates the 16 years of Britain's man
date over the Holy Land. Outwardly
the world war might still be on there.
Troops, some 16,000 of Britain's
'finest regiments augmented by thou
sands more arriving dally, with the
finest of eqxiipment; hundreds of
machine guns, field pieces and squad
rons of airplanes, are striving to make
the mandate workable;
They are fighting not only a com
parative handful of desperate Arabs,
raiding from the barren, rock-strewn
hlllB and the desert country around
the Dead Sea, but to preserve as well
Britain's empire chain through the
Near East Into Africa.
General t prising Feared
Overhead hongs the danger of ' a
general uprising of the millions of
Moslems of the cast, and particularly
of the dreaded Bedouins of Trans
Jordanla, where money judicially
spread among the chieftains has kept
100,000 of the world's fiercest fight
ers on the sidelines.
Worse still Is the threat to Great
Britain of another humiliation in
the east to match the loss of prestige
suffered In tho failure to stop Italy
in Ethiopia.
She may be called before the
League of Nations at any time for
an accounting of the mandate given
her 16 years ago. Today the country
la in greater disorder than ever be
fore.
Martial law Is the new law, terror
the normal state of all lnhaoltants.

Fight to Death
Previous uprisings of the Arabs,
growing out of bitterness over the
establishment of a Jewish national
home In Palestine, over unrestricted
Immigration and Immense land buy
ing, were put down quickly. But
tills one. which has gone on 24 weeks,
is a fight to the death In surround
ings now so bitter that leaders on
both sides agree there Is no peaceful
solution.
This uprising started spontaneonsly,
without leadership. There was a
funeral In Jaffa In April, and Arabs
claim that slurring remarks from the
sidewalks as the cortege passed start
ed a fight. Before the day was over
ten Jews and two Arabs had been
killed.
The Arabs closed their shops all
over Palestine, more as a protection
against what might follow than any
thing else.
It was decided this was a time to
fight to the death. When Arabs
sought to reopen their stores, they
were told to wait. They did.
Then came the formation of a
strike committee and decision not to
allow anyone to reopen.
Great Britain refused to deal with
the Arabs until order was restored
and the strike called off. The Arabs
said they'd die first.
Italy, Germany Blamed
Britain hints that Italy and Ger
many have had hands In strengthen
ing the resistance of the natives,
since they now have no visible me-.ns
of support. But since the famous
Balfour declaration in 1917, looking
with favor on establishment of a na
tional home In Palestine, Britain's
way there has been trouble.
All the time the Arab has raged
against the promise Britain gave In
, 101P that In return for Arab partlci
pation In the world war, freedom
would be his.
Today the Jews number 400,000 In
Palestine, but own about one-third
of the tillable land. The Arabs, num
bering 700,000, live mostly in pov
erty.
Most of the land has been sold to
the Jews by wealthy absentee Arab
owners and the Arab peasants who
worked the land for oenturiea have
been dispossessed.

ELK MASSACRED
Animals Stampeded Over
Cliff .s Revelation of For
est Officials Facts Are
Hushed to Prevent War
SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 1. (&)
An elk massacre kept secret for
months by fear "guerilla warfare
might crop out against the killers"
came to light today with an an
nouncement that Information would
be laid before a federal grand jury.
Evidence will Include motion pic
tures of 31 dead elk. their crushed
bodies in a ghastly pile at the bot
tom of an 8 00 -foot cliff. United States
forest service officials said.
State Game Commissioner Newell
B, Cok said charges would be sought
against seven stockmen for the al
leged Btampedlng of the animals last
December over the cliff on North
Horn mountain In Emery county. In
wild south central Utah.
Elk which did not leap to their
death were shot at the top of the
cliff and their bodies left to rot.
Cook asserted, adding:
"The purpoa of the msssacre, the
worst game atrocity ever committed
in this state, was not to secure meat.
"The motive was much more
shameful to kill animals accused of
consuming forage needed by the
stockmen.
"But these animals were killed on
forest land, on the public grazing
domain. Stockmen as well as sports
men were stunned by the brutal deed.
That's why we've kept it secret so
long we didn't want any guer.Ua
warfare to crop up against the kill
ers." Information gathered in the nine
month Investigation has been placed
with T. M. Talbert, forest service at
torney, for presentation to a grand
Jury, Cook said. Penalty for the of
fense Includes a heavy fine and loss
of grazing privileges.
