day by the city of Newport to save
Its fashionable bathing beaches from
ruin rs the slow settling of the
tanker Ilewellyn Rowland, aground
on Seal Ledge near Brenton's Reef,
indicated that she might soon go to
pieces. The tanker. bound from Fall

it was feared that the oil contained
in the tanks might be spread over
the Newport beaches.
City officials were notified tonight
that the coastguard service and the

would take action Immediately with a
view to preventing the flooding Of
the beaches with oil and removing
that already deposited. Appeals
were made to the navy. commerce
