NEW YORK, September 6.— Policemen with riot guns, sum- moned by a radio message telling of mutiny, today broke up a fight between negro and white members of the crew of the Shipping Board freighter Chester Kiwanis, anchored off Staten Island. \ They found Capt. Charles Boothby barricaded in his cabin. bruised and bitten. He attributed his injuries to white members of the crew. ‘When the police boat John F. Hylan approached the officers heard shots and saw negroes and whites in a battle royal on deck. It developed that twelve negroes whites toward the barricaded captain’s cabin. The trouble was quelled in an hour without the police firing & shot. The police left the vessel after driving the whites below decks and waiting till they had gone asleep. The negroes remained on deck guard- ing_the captain.

Boothby's version was the whites had an erroneous idea that he was favoring negroes in the distribution of work, and the trouble culminated when they vowed to “get” him. None of the combatants were seriously -in- Jured, and the captain said he de- sired no arrests made. 1 warrants , believed the corpo: were opposing the rush of thirty OVER A BILLION DOLLARS FOR RELIEF OF FARMERS The War Finance Corporation is issuing its own bonds. payments being mately $100,000,000 in advances outstanding.
