COAST SHIPPING
 IN GRAVE DANGER

San Pedro, Calf, March 14-- (UP)-Pacific coast shipping was in critical state today as the coastwise oil tanker strike threat ened to spread to general cargo vessels.
 Arrival of two general cargo ships was anXiously awaited to determine whether the tanker strike, which has affected 200 sea- men in Los Angeles harbor and approximately 800 along the Pacific coast, will be extended.
 The Maine of the Isthmian line and the Timber Rush of the Shep- ard line were due today. Shipping men said the actions of their crews will determine whether the Inter- national Seamens Union has is- sued orders for general cargo strike.

At Garden City, Kan, the sky

intensity and length.
The dust drenched all of Texas

on him at a mile-a-minute clip.
The crossing is one of the most
dangerous in Maryland, police said.
Five other persons were killed there
recently. The view in one direction
is partly obscured by the station
and in the other by an embank-
ment. The crossing Waterman was
off duty at the time.
A moment before the train
plowed into the rear of the bus
the pupils, members of a senior
high school science class return
ing from a lecture at the Univer-
sity of Maryland, had been sing
ing and joking in a holiday mood.
Line said he failed to hear the
train whistle The light from the
locomotive suddenly Illuminated the
bus. The children screamed in
horror for an instant. Then the
grinding crash of steel against wood
snuffed out the lives Of 10 pupils
almost instantly. Two bodies were
on the cowcatcher of the engine
when it ground to stop almost
half a mile down the track. Bodies
and Wreckage were strewn for 200
yards along the right-of-w
to take the bodies home.
Miss Funk sobbed as she identi-
fed bodies of her science class pu-
pills. She had been sitting in the
front seat of the bus, beside the
driver.
Il had just suggested to the driver
that we had better stop il Rock
vile for gas. AS we came to the
crossing I heard no bells or whistle.
Suddenly there was a binding
light. The driver stepped on the
gas in an effort to clear the tracks.
Il didn't hear a whistle until the
lights of the approaching train
blinded me. AS the driver stepped
on the gas the bus lurched forward
and the train hit us in the rear.
My head hit the top of the bus,
stunning me. Then heard screams
and means of dying children. re-

 Fortunately, in this case, the child, George Weyer- haeuser lumber family has been returned safely to his home and not cruelty slain as was the little Lindbergh infant The money, $200000 is in pos session of the kidnapers. Undoubtedly, the guilty parties will be apprehended and justice meted out Capital punishment is not too severe in such cases for there is no crime as terrible as Kidnapping.
 But the fact remains that the snatch" was made despite the vigilance of authorities Depart ment of Justice officers known to the underworld "G Men" Government men) had known for some time that something big in the way of crime being planned on the West Coast but they had not progressed with investigations to the point of being able to tell exactly what it was just where to expect it. The criminals well aware that the Federas were on their trail acted quickly and boldly Their triumph probably will be short-lived, but the crime reveals the need of still further strengthening of Government forces against crime. The "G Men" have done excellent work in their drive against the criminal element and they will continue to do so. The fact they were expecting something the Coast shows they were on the job, and perhaps if there had been more of these experts work the Weyerhaeuser kidnapers would have been nipped before the act could have been perpetrated. It costs money to fight crime; it will cost more to increase the Federal forces but so long as such vicious criminals as the that snatched the Weyerhaeuser boy at large it appears like sound investment to spend the money The "G Men" can run the criminals to earth and they must be given every support in ridding the country of it's worst menace.

 Each of these eight brothers and sisters inherited wealth. Chaloner's share being estimated at $4,000, 900 when in 1897 his brothers Lewis and Winthrop and Arthur A. Carey, a cousin, joined in having him com mitted to the Bloomingdale asy- lum at White Plains, N. Y. They testified he was incapable of man. aging his own affairs.
 Marriage Back of Arrangement
 Chaloner traced Une commitment to business troubles with his broth CTS and to an arrangement from his entire family growing out of his marriage on June IA, 1888, to Amelie Rives, author. The princi- pal character John Deering, in her famous book, The Quick or the Dead" published that year, was supposed to have been drawn from Chaloner They were divorced in October, 1895 and later she married Prince Pierre Troubetskoy, Russian artist.
 Chaloner remained in the White Plains institution until 1900 when, with sl0 given to him by a friend, he ran away, made his way to Philadelphia and entered a private sanitarium. There the staff doctors adjudged him sane.
