Loss I'm Containers.
There has been brought to the at
tention OF the War Department the
loss due to the failure to return the
containers in which commodities are
purchased for the air service, when
the contract provides a specific credit
for each container SO returned. as Well
as failure to salvage and sell to the
best advantage containers In cases
where there Is no specitc arrange
ment for the return of such contain
ers TO the contractor for the COM
modify, but where the containers are,
nevertheless, of considerable intrinsic
tainers of the latter class are covered
by regulations and orders, and the for
mer class requires only a careful full
fillment of the terms of the contracts.
Instructions. therefore, have been
issued relative to the disposal Of
empty containers collecting at air
service stations.
The new air service flying field.
Santa Monica, Calf, named in honor
of Lieut.. Greayer Glover, who was
killed in France during the world
war. will soon be in operation. The
! field is intended primarily as a train
ing center for air officers Of the Re
serve Corps in the 9th Corps Area.

Great Red Spot on Jupiter

noted and recorded. It's rate of mo-
ton, he says, last year indicated a
period of rotation equal to nine hours
fifty-five minutes and thirty-eight
seconds. During the last few years
the spot has exhibited a slackening
of velocity.
At the present time the spot pre-
cedes the zero meridian by three
hours.
Mr.. Denning says there is another
long. dusky marking in nearly the
same latitude of Jupiter which close
ly follows the eastern end of the red
spot. This, he says. will well repay
close observation.

The great red spot which has been
visible on the planet Jupiter under
different aspects since 1857 is now
especially conspicuous.
Though this phenomena now on the
disc OF this gigantic member of our
solar system in all probability has
nothing to do with the far distant
burning sun Beta Ceti. Yet Mr.. W.
f. Denning, the English astronomer,
says "it should be observed as often
as possible during the ensuing spring
months, and the time of Its transit

Navy Department Here
"Suspends Judgment"
on DESTROYER Crash

The Navy Department is "sus.
pending judgment" upon the disaster
that befell seven American de-
stroyers Sunday and piled them up
on the Southern California coast
with loss of more than a score of
lives, Secretary of the Navy DENLY
said today.
Details of the wreck, DENLY said
are not yet sufficient to permit an
expression of opinion as to what
caused the destroyers to pIow into
the rocky coast at speed of twenty
knots an hour.
1t is regarded as certain, however,
that a board Of inquiry will be ap-
pointed.
The Navy Department received the
following message this morning from
the commander chief Of the PIT
cific battle fleet:
"All survivors from stranded de-
stroyers sent to San Diego by train
and remainder by Destroyer IL.
No movable material can be
salvaged until heavy surf abates and
then will require protracted efforts.
Officers and men of Woodbury.
and Fuller reported saved. No
! further news"

Los ANGELES. CAL, Sept. TO-
Thrilling eyewitness stories that
rival the most weird fiction were
told here today as the SIT salvaged
souls. refugees of the crash of seven
United States warships on the
rocks near Point Arguello, Santa
Barbara county, passed through
Los Angeles on a special train en-
route to San Diego, where the
squadron was headed when the
wreck occurred Saturday night.
The men and officers, half clothed
and crammed into nine passenger
coaches, many of them strewn in
the aisles of the coaches, craved but
Two th1nge-eOmethiAg to eat and
some sleep.
Tragic Story Told.
Every man showed signs of hard
ship and many of them wore
bandages. One of the most tragic
stories told by the sailor survivors
was that of Squad" .Pierson, fire
men, first class, OF the u. S. s.
Delphy, who lost the sight in both
eyes when cut by his glasses which
were broken as he was washed over
board. PierSon was rescued, but
upon being brought on deck. lost his
mind and was again lost when the
ship was broken In two.
All members of the crew gave un-
stinted praise to Commander w. L.
Calhoun, in command of the u. S.
8. Young. which tipped over within
. minute and a half after she had
crashed upon the rocks.
Men Whistled at Death.
Commander Calhoun, the men
said, ordered every man to. remain
calm and stay aboard, which they
obeyed without the slightest dissen-
sion, as an Illustration of the spirit
OF the men while facing apparent
death in a fog that was an dense as
was ever experienced on the south
err California coast. Members of
the crew Of the destroyer Young
started whistling their favorite
songs.
Many of the men were modest
and refused to discuss their actions,
but We're anxious to relate the hero

One of the thrilling stories was
told Of Chief Boatsman's Mate Pc
