SAN PEDRO, Calf, July 5. U.D
Capt. Frank Zaddert and "a mem
bers of the crew of the lumber
schooner Anne Hanify, which went
aground at Point Honda last TueR-
day, arrived here today aboard the
Red Star tug, Sea Rover.
Capt. Zaddert reported that the
ships bottom had been sheared off
by the rocks but that her cargo
and hull could be salvaged with
proper equipment.
Describing the wreck, he said the
dense fog hanging over Point
Honda waters prevented him from
determining his exact location. lie

shore when he heard railroad en-
gine whistle at 1:50 a. m. Tues
day. Although the engines were
running full speed, they were un-
able to make headway against the
strong tide and heavy seas that
were running, he said.
Capt. Zaddert is 68 years of age
and has sailed the Anne Hanify
ever since she was launched in 1920.

Unable TO Find
Climbers Body

PARADISE INN, Mount Rainier
National Park, WASH, July 5. (U.R)
Back up the icy slopes of Mount
Rainier, before the first rays of
sun had lighted the glacier and
snow banks, a dozen weary men
today to resume their hunt
for the body of Forrest Greathouse,
one of two men lost in a crevasse
Tuesday.
Two days of Almost unceasing
search yielded the body of Edwin
A. Wtzel, Milwaukee, but the noun
tain still held the body of the for
mer University Of Illinois footba Il
star. He was believed to have been
buried deep in the snow.
Rescuers dug in vain all day yes
terday.
Snow, wind, cYouds and even the
sun hampered the band of rescuers
as they toiled on the heights.
'sWhen we got as far as Camp
Charles Brown, guide and
leader of the rescuers, said "clouds
and wind struck us and we were
forced to wait there for two hours
before the air cleared and we could
go on.
"Then in Ingraham Glacier the
sun came out and caused the ice to
melt slightly and grow more slip
perry. 1t made the crossing doubly
dangerous.
Wind had blown snow over the
tracks of the six men who had
plunged into the glacier, four of
whom were rescued without critical
injuries. and the task of finding the
exact spot where Greathouse waS
hurled over the brink bordered on
the impossible today.
John Day was lowered into the
crevasse and for hours he searched
through the ice and snow, digging
and scanning the surface.

RIVALS EXPRESS
THEIR VIEWS ON
PROHIBITION LAW

NEW YORK, July 5. W.pj--
Sharply contrasting suggestions us
to what ought to be done about the
prohibition laws were put forward
over the Independence day holiday
by DR.. Clarence True Wilson and
Alfred f. Smith.
DIR. Wilson, general secretary OF
the Board of Temperance and Pub
lie Morals of the Methodist church,
believes that the administration
must put "the fear of God" in the
minds of prohibition violators and
that some such drastic step as call
ing in the army and navy will be
necessary to enforce dry law ade-
quately.
Former Governor Smith, speak
ing at a Tammany celebration hero,
urged all who believed in the
Declaration of Independence to cur
tail the activities of ''the eigh-
teenth amendmentprohibition
crowd" whom he charged with
Compromising the fundamentals
of government.
DR.. Wilson'S views appeared in
today's issue of Golfers. He advo-
Gated prison sentences for first
violators of prohibition laws,
punishment for buyers of liquor as
well as the sellers, deportation OF
aliens who violate the laws and rigi@
padlocking legislation.
The article suggested that mar
tial law should have been declared
in Baltimore and New York be-
cause of the attitudes of Governor
Albert c. Ritchie and Governor
Smith who, he said, had "led their
states to rebel against the union'
in the matter of prohibition.
Former Governor Smith's s address
was on the subject of personal
liberty.
"The eighteenth amendment-pro
hibition crowd have said they would
attempt to prohibit the use of
tobacco in public places,' he said
in part. "It' s the job of us who be-
lieve in the Declaration of Inde-
pendence to keep the old constitu-
tion free from further changes of
this and similar kinds. =

Mill VALLEY
STILL BATTLES !
SEVERE BLAZE

MILL VALLEY, Cal, July 5. W.G
In the face of new threat from
the forest fire burning above here
on the slopes Of Mount Tamalpais,
Mill Valley armed itself again to-
day'to beat back the flames which
have ravaged more than 100 homes
and thousands of acres of timber
land.
Fed by high wind, the fire zone,
which was believed to have been
under control, assumed dangerous
proportions again shortly after mid
night and as precautionary mea
ure hundreds of sleeping fire fight
ers We're aroused by the sirens and
sent to the head of Cascade Can
yOn.
Great frs and redwoods fell be-
fore the new onslaught of the
flames, which jumped 500 yard
back fired district and swept down
the canyon in direct path for the
heart of the city.
Before the beautiful country
home of DR.. William c. Dawson the
line of fire fighters was organized,
and although the house caught fire,
the flames were conquered before
great damage was done. This was
believed to have been the turning
point in the battle to stop the on
rushing blaze
Although the danger was believed
to have passed early today, the
weary line of fighters was strength
ened with fresh volunteers. A turn
in the wind had again saved the
town but the vigilance was not re-
laXed and the danger is not yet
passed, it was said.
