Mr. Campbell, under the dirsction of the Veterans' Bureau. had been in the Philippines for little more than a year.

For @ brief respite from the ocean travel, Mr. Campbell went ashore while the ship was taking on both passengers and The day, Baptember 1, was warm and sunny. Just at noon a slight tremor was felt.

The | shock there in Kobe caused no mate- irial damage and was regarded by the natives with no alarm, for through- out the island shocks of that sort are frequent and are not uncommon. . Sa’led for Yokohama. The shock was of short duration, and, totally unaware of the results of 'the earthquake elsewhere, the President Jefferson, with Mr. Camp- bel] on board, sailed for Yokohama, leaving Kobe about 4 o'clock in the afterncon. On_the morning of the following day, September 2, the ship anchored for a short time at Shmidzu, where a_load of tea was taken on board. Still no word of the catas- trophe was heard, and at noon a radlo message was picked up from the Empress of Australia, which was anchored In the Yokohama harbor, glving a short description of the se- riousness of the quake. Officers of the President Jefferson, as the vessel | glided Its way along the seemingly unperturbed waters of the coast, re- fused to belidve the radio message to be true, for it seemed to them im- possible that such an upheaval could have occurred The President Jefferson kept on its way and at nightfall the sky in the direction of their destination was brilliantly {lluminated, the glare casting its spectral light far along the horizon. Even then no one be- lleved it to be the result of any cat- aclysm, the strange light being put down as “probably the rays of search- lights.” The ship had ieft Shmidzu at 6 o'clock in the evening and now was only a hundred miles away. Pas- sengers on board stayed up and watched the strange _spectacie, but not until the boat anchored in Yoko- hama harbor at 2:30 o'clock the morn. 7TH-DAY ADVENTIST LEADERS TO MEET Denomination Headquarters Takoma Park to ]}e Repre- sented at Milwaukee. .

Justice Hoehling of the District Supreme Court yesterday. issued a rule on Charles E. Bushong, secretary of the Weck Chemical Company, to sShow cause Thursday why he should not be required to submit the books of the corporation to the inspection of the other officers of the company. The company through a number of its stockholders brought suit for an injunction against Bushong, in which they charge that he has possession of the books of the corporation and of the secret formula, which is one of the chief assets, and Yrefuses to surrender them or to permit inspec- {tion which had been ordered at a meeting of the company. Through Attorneys Jeffords and LDutton the court is told that Bushong y1as threatened to wreck the corpora- ion and to leave the city. The plain- tiffs express the fear that he may remove the formula and start another corporation elsewhere. They ask that the books be deposited with the court.

At this time Yokohama and Yoko- ldoI‘:eln bur:- ing for thirty-six ,Glant waves nn% swells caused the President Jef- ferson to bounce on the water like a straw in a mill pond. On every lay scenes of devastation and wreckage. At daylight scores of refugees, mostly Americans and Eng- lish, rushed to the liner by meani of small boats that miraculously es: caped the fury of the water Tha refugees were for the most part in rags ana tatters, some of them belng partially clotiréd in kimonos and pa- jamas. They were covered with both mud and blood. One strange specta- cle marked their. entrance to_their refuge—their great morale. When they clambored up on the .ship they sought word from their friends and relatives who were missing and re counted tales of the disaster ingre: detail, although their descriptio were somewhat varied. The President® Jefferson immedi- ately started unloading food and sup- plies and set about caring for those that had come aboard. According to the stories told by the victims, the great dock to which the Empress of Australia was tled up had sunk with- out warning, and only the breakihg of the ropes that held the ship fast soved her from destruction. —Thous sands of people who were on the dock perished in the foaming Wwaters. There were two distinct shocks on the land, according to the refugees, about five seconds apart. During the first shock the land rose up, leveling most of the city, and then abruptly sank down again. The second shock, which wag of a siniilar magnitude, caused the ground again to rise up; this time it sank with a twisting motion. Fires Break Out, Fires broke out everywhere and the water mains were turned loose, leaving everything practically d stroyed. The shocks during the three days numbered 1,000, 700 of which were of marked intensity. Thousands of people sought the parks, where, hemmed in on all four sides by fire. they managed to live through the night. "mans. however, dying of ex- posure and injurles previously sus- tained. The rPesident _Jefferson returned that afternoon to Kobe =with 400 ref- ugees. Arriving at Kobe, the ship unloaded the majority of its passen- gers and, stocking up with food and supplies, returned to Yokohama, where it again took on more refugees. Leaving Yokohama with the first au- thentic news of the disaster, the ship sailed for Seattle, Wal where it arrived September 16. Mr. Campbell today called on Gen. Frank T. Hines, director of the Vet- erans’ Bureau, and gave him a brief summary of his thrilling experiences, as well as the work of the bureau in the Philippine: MERCHANT MARINE PLAN UNCHANGED Government to Go Ahead Under Present System of Operation.

A far-sighted policy in buying land for park extensions and school sites is not only essential to good city planning, but is & move toward econ- omy also, Maj. J. Fraklin Bell, En- gineer Commissioner, told the Soclety of American Military Engineers at a meeting in the District building last night. Maj. Bell declared that if Congress had carried out the McMillan Park plan when it was proposed twenty years ago the necessary land could have been acquired at a reasonable figure. Today, he sald, the land not only has taken on higher value, but is rapldly being takem up for private building operations. “Had the government .bought the iand years ago and later ‘decided not to utilize it there would have been no loss, for it could have been dis- posed of without difficulty,” he said. Maj. Bell is of the opinion that this poliey of looking far ahead in the ac- quisition of land should be followed now in selecting sites to be used for school bulldings in future vears. A few days ago the Engineer Com- missioner, in buying land authorized if the current appropriation act for new schools, had brought to his attention the handicap of trying to purchase property after a neighhor- hood has become closely built up.
