Shawnee was proceeding to it's
 dock in San Francisco bay.
 San Francisco, Aug. 30 L19-Re- yised figures on the number of pas sengers aboard the coastwise steam- CT San Juan when she sank off Pigeon Point south of here today showedfthat 74 persons remained unaccounted for and may have per- ished.
 Officers of the Los Angeles and San Francisco Navigation Co.,, own- CTS of the San Juan, announced that their latest information showed there were G5 passengers aboard the ves- sel when she collided with the Standard Oil tanker s. c. T. Dodd in a thick fog at midnight, The crew of the San Juan numbered 45.
 There were conflicting reports as to the number rescued. Aboard the Dodd were S7 of the San Juan's passengers and crew. Nine others had been picked up by the steamer Munami, which was still at the scene of the collision at 8 a. m. One report said there were four other survivors aboard the motor- ship Frank Lynch, but this could not be confirmed.
 Renews Search at Dawn
 Radio stations here reported that the Munami had renewed it's search of the wreckage- -strewn collision area at daybreak but that up to 8 a. m., it had not reported picking up any additional persons. These advices, coming eight hours after the San Juan sank, led to be- lief that few. if any, of the "A miss ing would be found alive although the Munami refused to give up the search.
 AmbulanCeS Line Docks
 Every available ambulance in San Francisco was sent to the water front to receive the 27 persons pick ed up by the Dodd. Emergency hos pitals were made ready to receive the survivors, some of whom were ! injured and reported badly in need of medical attention. | The San Juan, double decker of iron construction, 235 feet long and of $500 gross tons. had sailed the seas for 47 years. She was one of the oldest ships on the Pacific. hay ing first taken to the water shortly after the disappearance of the swift packets that carried the frontiers of trade to the Pacific coast.
 After short period of service with the Pacific Mail Steamship line in the South American trade, the San Juan wah sold to the James K. Nelson Go. and soon thereafter became the property of the Los An- geles 2nd San Francisco Navigation Co. She piled between the two California cities for years. featuring low passenger rates.
 The Dodd is a 1000 ton ship. She was damaged little in the collision.

The French flyers had mapped two
alternative courses to Paris, the choice
depending upon weather conditions.
Fly to Corner
They planned to touch the tip of
Cape Sable and then fly to the cor
ner" a junction of-lanes about 1900
miles east southeast of Old Orchard.
Here the Frenchman's two routes
diverged, Q one going northeast to

to st. Nazaire and to Paris; the other
east southeast to the island Of Fayal,
Azores, cast to the northern coast Of
Portugal and thence northeast to

BY the northern route the airmen
would fly approximately $500 miles;
by the southern about 1900 miles.
May Have Stowaway
Two men who were standing about
the French plane as the motor was
being warmed up said they saw a
young stoWaway climb into the cabin.
The report could not be confirmed
and no radio messages had been re-
ceived from the plane.
The crash Of the Green Flash took
place about a mile from the start.
Williams who was at the controls, said
the tail was in the air, when he felt
the wheels spread under him. and the
plane swerved to the left. He closed
the throttle quickly and pulled the
plane to the right and she nosed
over, the propeller digging into the

Another important matter that
came to a head at the st. Paul con
ference was the receipt of corces-
sions by the Farm board at Washing
ton, by which funds are made easier
of access to farmers who wish to store
their grain under the North Dakota
warehousing law of last winter, per-
hitting this innovation on the basis
Of loans. Circulars to the number of
10000 are being sent out by Manager
Thatcher, prepared in advance of the
Farm boards decision to open loans
to individual storers as well az pooling
stores.
Circular on Farm Storage
This circular states the situation
as follows:
LAS most farmers need money to
pay current expenses and harvest
bills, the usual method has been to
sell grain Immediately to pay these
expenses. Arrangements have now
been made SO that members of the
Farmers Union may borrow money on
farm warehouse receipts. Money may
be borrowed in two ways:
First. If you desire to pool your
grain and sign a pooling contract, you
car borrow government money at the
interest rates of the intermediate
credit banks, which range from 5 to
6A per cent. If you pool-"eXpenses"
r limited to actual charges such as
your own interest cost, freight, in
Spection, Sampling. regular grain
commission charges, etc.-and no eX-
pense charges such as field ex-
penSeS," organization expense
home office expense" etc. 1t is the
cheapest pool expense w offered to
grain farmers.
Second. If you prefer to ship and
have the "say-so" as to when your
grain is to be sold, and sell without
being in q pool the Farmers Union
Terminal association arrangements
provide for funds from commercial
banks at an interest rate to you of 6
per cent. You pay this interest only
for the actual time the money is Dor
rowed.
"Consign your grain shipments to
the one big cooperative grain sales
agency-full bonded and protected
the Farmers Union Terminal associa-
ton. Write to them at st. Paul for
shipping instructions and for infor-
nation regarding the best market for
your particular grain"
