BRITISH NAVY SHIPS
1.-THE G0LDENG GATE
Large Squadron at San
Francisco Port, First Time
in Forty Years.
By the Associa ted Press

By the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Calf, July s.
Seven British battle craft, the first
large British squadron to enter an
American port for forty years,
steamed through the Golden Gate
yesterday to pay a visit to the United
states on the way home from a tour
of the British dominions the world
over. They were headed by the bat
tie cruiser Hood, mightiest of all
fighting craft afloat
The United States destroyers Hull
and Chase met the visitors several
miles out and escorted them into the
harbor. AS the squadron entered the
bay the Hood fired national salute
of twenty-one guns, to which Fort
Scott replied.
Noise Makers Roar Welcome.
Factory whistles. sirens on vessels
In port, the big whistle on the ferry
building and other noise making de-
vices roared welcome to the British
ships as they proceeded up the har-
Dor to Man-ofWar Row, where they
anchored near the American warcraft
Vice Admiral Sir Frederick Field

discharge from the service he mar
ried. In July, 1922, he was acci-
dentally killed. leaving a wife and a
small child. His wife has remarked
and 1 have the child. Is the child
entitled to the bonus, and IL so, how
should I proceed to collect it?-Mrs.
j. B.
A. Since your sons wife is remar-
ried, his child is entitled to the bene-
fits of the adjusted compensation act.
If you have not actually been ap-
pointed the guardian of the child,
you should be, and then you should
file an application as the legal guar
dian of a minor child and a depend
ent, as described in the adjusted
compensation act.
@. am divorced from my husband
and have the custody of our child.
I have had a great deal of trouble
to collect the alimony allowed me for
our support by the court I want
this bonus for our child; I had it
any way 1 might claim it or have
the judge of our court order him to
pay it to me?-H. M. c. S.
A. Your husband will receive an
adjusted service certificate IL he
makes application for it. He can
any other person, as his beneficiary,
in case of his death. You cannot
compel him through any court action
to name you or the child as bene-
ficiary. There is no way in which
you can compel him to pay you any
of the proceeds unless at the end of
the twenty years for which the GER
tihcate runs he collects it himself in
cash. Immediately after the proceeds
are received by him you might be
able to serve an attachment upon it.
But until he actually, receives cash
for the, certificate there Is nothing
you can do. The thing you should
persuade him to name either your
self or the child as his beneficiary.
If he dies within the next twenty
years you would have the benefit Of
the money and perhaps that Is what
you want, anyway.

The mines had operated under a
agreement up to March 81, last.
Since that date the operators have
been negotiating with union repre-
sentatives, but all efforts to reach an
agreement failed, the union forces
holding out for the Jacksonville
scale and the operators contending
that they could not compete in the
market on that basis.
Since the 1922 strike, only a part
Of the Kanawha mines operated on a
union basis and while the Kanawha
Operators Association had no part
