was being done at Peiping, Tient
sin, Chefoo and other placet. The
Standard Oil installation at
Shlhchiachuang, in western Ho-
pen province, was reported
closed and under Japanese
guard, while numerous Ameri
can and British firms throughout
Shantung province were under
"protective custody."
The Japanese charged that a
raid recently on the compound
of the American Southern Bap
tist mission at Kaifeng, where
three cameras were stolen, was
made by Chungking agents de
scribed as members of a "Honan
provincial anti - American com
mittee." CHUNGKING, July 31 W)
- The United States gunboat Tu
tuila, which barely escaped a
Japanese bomb in an air raid on
Chungking yesterday, had such
a close call she was lifted partly
out of the water, a United States
esibassy eye-witness related to
day. "The bomb crashed in the
river eight yards off the ship's
stern," he said. "The stern was
lifted clear out of the water by
the force of the explosion, which
lightly buckled the steel plates
of the ship s superstructure.
"Oil barrels were knocked
overboard," the witness continu
ed, "awning supports were dam
aged and many things such as
bottles were shaken to the floor.
"The crew had a few rough
moments but not a single man
was Injured.
"The Tutuila's speedboat was
smashed beyond repair.
"The embassy was not in any
way damaged."

were in the rear. Dreyer was
driving.
Investigators said the Dreyer
sedan evidently came upon the
highway without stopping. Af
ter the collision with the Kirby
car, the Dreyer sedan went into
a ditch and Dreyer was pinned
against the ditchbank by his
automobile. He died almost im
mediately from a crushed chest.
According to Lawrence Berg-
mann. state police officer who
investigated the crash, Kirby
said he was driving about SO
miles an hour when the Dreyer
car moved onto the highway at
an undetermined speed. It was
believed the Dreyer party had
been on a picnic at the lava beds,
for articles of a picnic lunch
were scattered over the road. One
opinion ventured that Dreyer
thought he was traveling a
through highway, "and thus had
the right of way.
Dreyer was a prominent
rancher of the Little Shasta val
ley district, near Montague, and
active in affairs of the Little
Shasta as well as Pomona
grange. Mrs. Eaton, it is under
stood, is Mrs. Dreycr's sister.

TpHE Japs, it develops, wore
almost hasty in their apol
ogies for the bombing ot an
American gunboat at Chungking,
getting to American Ambassador
Grew in Tokyo before the con
sored news of the incident
reached this country. At tho
same time, the chief aide ot the
Japanese navy visited tho Amer
ican naval attache in Tokyo to
express regrets.
Frozen-laced Sumner Wells,
acting svcrelury of state, says
curtly in Washington that tho
Japanese apologies are insuf
ficient to "close the incident,
adding that this government
awaits a more complete reply
from Japan.
THIS writer's guess:
The Jap's prompt apology
for the gunboat bombing Is de
signed to say to this country
that they AREN'T getting out of
bounds.
Welles' frosty reply is de
signed to say to the Japs that
getting out of bounds is THEIR
lookout, and to be CAREFUL.
fLIMMER ot business sense on
the home front:
It is announced in Washington
that hereafter we'll buy from
Canada strategic minerals, which
we do need, instead of high
priced gold, ot which we have
quite a plenty.
