ESTABLISHED 1873 THE BIS North Dakota’s Oldest Newspaper BISMARCK, N. D., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 80, 1937 Left—Here’s a gripping aftermath of the sinking of the U.S. 8. Panay in the Yangtze river. E.R.

Hughes, commander of the Panay in its rescue mission up the Yangtze river, was one of the seriously injured when the American warship was attacked and sunk by Japanese naval planes near Nan- king, China. This photo, taken by Weldon James, news- peperman and survivor, shows Hughes, injured, lying in a mboo thicket.
