IN MiNIMl DISPUTE1
_ !
NANKING, Oct. 15. (/P) — The
world’s interest in China’s diplo
matic struggle to regain Manchu
ria from the military grip of Ja
pan was illustrated by the arrival i
here on orders from their home j
governments, of the American and
British ministers to China.
They come from Pieping, the
capital, where most foreign diplo
mats still live. Their arrival was j
the most important local incident |
in a day of anxious waiting en- j
gendered by the failure of the j
council of the League of Nations i
at Geneva to take definite action |
in the Manchurian crisis.
Nationalist officials seemed to
see a hopeful sign in the visits of
the two diplomats.

probably play a prominent part
in the community’s music within
the next couple of weeks as Sew
ard residents begin to take advan
tage of the firewood which has
been piled high and dry on the
beaches by the present raging of:
Father Neptune. I

tage of the excellent protection
I afforded their boats during the
storm by the recently constructed
breakwater- They also report that
some of the rocks on the far end
of the breakwater were washed
away by the storm of yesterday.
Nothing was heard as to the po
sition of the SS Starr today but
| the vessel is expected to arrive
here by Saturday.

Steamship Co., which brought in
a huge cargo of freight including
10 all-steel coal cars for the Al
aska Railroad,’ oil, and many tons
of dynamite, left port during the
forenoon after having discharged
the last of its freight at the Sew
