Thomas J. Walsh of Montana condemned declarations. that efforts for peace cannot succeed and asked that veter- ans make themselves as great a force in the direction of preventing war as they have been in fighting the battles of the nation, in an address before the 30th annual encampment of the Veterans of Foreign Wars today. A peace pact should have fully as good a chance to succeed as treaties binding nations to go to war for one another, he declared, denouncing efforts to belittle peace treaty efforts of the United States. Senator Walsh was loudly applaud- ed when he told the veterans that he had been unfavorably impressed by patriotic organizations who have passed resolutions condemning other forms of government than that in vogue in this country. Nation on Its Feet “If that is necessary to keep this country on its feet, if our form of government is tottering, if it cannot stand on its own feet, why, we should have another,” Senator Walsh de- \clared. “But the contrary is true and our nation does stand on its feet and I see no sense in pronouncements of this kind from organizations, in fact their actions are foolish.” Congressman Harold Knutson, ‘Wadena, Minn., chairman of the pen- sion committee of the lower house of congress, also addressed the veterans, expressing be¥«i the payment of pensions on a‘liberal basis is meri- torious not only in recognition of the efforts of veterans to preserve the na- tion’s liberties but as well from an economic standpoint. Resolutions creating a national crime commission within the organ- posal of the president's national crime commission; urging better living quarters for the army personnel; urg- ing congress to appropriate funds to provide for a reunion of union and confederate veterans at Washington, D. C., in two years, and urging & program providing for an adequate national air defense, were adopted. Ask Traveling Expenses Another resolution was passed urg- ing congress to appropriate moneys which would allow travel pay to Phil- ippine veterans who entered the Spanish-American war with state military organizations and later re- enlisted at the request of the war de- partment. The average which would be realized by the veterans would {be about $500. There are veterans in Iowa, South Dakota and Minnesota, who would be entitled to the allow- aifcé if congress approved. Resolutions also were passed pro- viding for conscription of all national resources in time of war; urging es- tablishment of a separate air force distinct from the army and navy, urging employment of service men in advocating establishment 2f a gov- ernment employment agency for dis- abled veterans. * Officers’ Sons Like i I * : 4 latform committee. ‘The list may be | tended the program.

There was continued desultory fighting in the less populated sections. Looting continued even in Jerusalem, and danger from marauding tribes of Bedouins from Southern Palestir&e and Transjordania still existed. Looters caught in the act were or- dered shot forthwith by court martial. The felaheen—the Arab peasantry— who fear the wild Bedouins almost as much as do the Jews, brought their children as hostages of peace to the Jewish labor settlement, Kiryath Anavian. The Jewish colonists were deeply touched by the sign of friendliness, which served somewhat to cool the passions aroused by stories of Arab atrocities on Jewish girls and youths in other parts of the Holy Land. Moslém Sabbath Critical Today, the Moslem Sabbath, was looked upon as critical, with Mussul- mans gathering in their mosques. ‘With its passage it was believed the situation would grow steadily better. Arab leaders arranged a huge assem- salem. ‘There were continued scattered dis- orders. Two Arabs were killed in an attack on the Jewish setoment at Kalandia. A Jewish girl and a small child wer: | wounded on the road between Ludd | and Tel Aviv. Later two Jewish men | were killed on the same road. An Arab was assassinated on a street in Jerusalem, and three more houses were burned in the old city. | Physician Is Shot Dr. Korkidi, a physician, was shot and wounded by a sniper while op- erating upon a patient in the hospital Misgab L’Dach in Jerusalem. He had attended the sick continuously throughout the troubles, performing operations despite the dangers.

San Francisco, Calif, Aug. 30. —(?)—Offices of the Los An- geles and San Francisco Naviga- tion company, owners of the Sia caa vessel San Juan which sank south of here this morning, announced that their advices in- dicated forty-four of the 100 per- sons aboard the San Juan had ie rescued. e navigation company's re- port indicated that 30 ar the sur- vivors were alpard the Standard | Oil tanker S. C. T. Dodd, which figured in the collision with the San Juan. Ten others were said to be aboard the steamer Munami and four more were picked up by the moterihip Pia Lynch. San Francisco, Aug. 30—()—Radio advices from two rescue ships indi- cated that 65 persons may have per- ished with the sinking of the coast- | Wise passenger vessel, San Juan, 30 | miles south of here early today. The rescue ships reported they had picked up 35 of the 100 passengers and crew of the vessel. The San Juan went down in five minutes after colliding with the Standard Oil tanker 8. C. T. Dodd off Pigeon Point, Cal. Although one side ; of the Dodd was stove in she lowered {her boats and went to the rescue of the passengers and crew who were | Diane into the sea as the San Juan sank, | “Another ship, the Munami, turned {from her course nearby and aided in the rescue work. Several hours later the Dodd was on its way to San Francisco with 27 survivers, some of them badly injured and in need of medical attention. The Munami had | taken eight others aboard and was standing by, looking for those who may have remained afloat after the ship sank. Darkness Handicaps Rescue Radio accounts of the rescue indi- cated, however, that. the chances for many of the 65 unaccounted for per- sons were slim, due to the speed with which the San Juan sank and the fact that darkness and confusion handicapped the rescue workers. The San Juan left San Francisco last night for Los Angeles. She was an old vessel of about 1,700 tons, was operated by the Los Angeles and San Francisco Navigation company and | featured low rates for travel between the two California cities. Most of the passengers were from Los An- Beles. Survivors aboard the Dodd said they saw Captain Adolph F. Asplund go down with his ship.
