TOKYO, Dec. IL N.N.S.).
The Japanese navy ministry
today handed the American
embassy 656 yen IL sen (abOut
$19O) contributed voluntarily
by ] pa n S e Sympathizers
with the families Of those
killed in the attack on the
United States gunbOat Panay
and three other American
ships in the Yangtze River.
The sum included Ill pen

other amounts given by Japa-
nese barmaids and the Jana

ciety.
The Washington times., 1937-12-17

The State Department told
Tokyo it had in its hands reports
which confirmed these facts:
l. That the sinking U. S. S.
Panay, its colors flying, was
machine-gunned at short range
by Japanese army troops who
ran alongside in Japanese
motorboats.
SURVIVORS FIRED UPON
2. That the American survi-
vors were blasted by japanese
machine gun fire from diving
planes as they attempted to
leave the sinking gunboat in
small boats.
3. That two Americans re-
ceived their wounds in this at
tack, which followed swiftly on
the bombing assault from the
air.
4. That Japanese officers and
soldiers boarded the Panay while
the American officers and crew
of the Panay were seeking
safety. The Americans were
fired on.
FORWARDED TO TOKYO
5. That, in the way of exhibit
A and to brace the sworn testi-
mony of survivors, American Of
ficials in the Chinese war zone
have recovered the machine
gun-ripped motorboat of the
Panay, in which the survivors
had attempted to reach safety
in a hail of Japanese bullets.
All this information was for
warded from Washington by Sec
retary of State Hull to American
Ambassador Grew in Toyko, with
instructions that Grew call it to
the immediate attention of the
Japanese foreign office-with the
implied suggestion that it may
change the "only a regrettable
accident" attitude of the japanese
government.
SITTER NOTE SEEN
The definite confirmation that
the American warcraft had been
deliberately machine-gunned after
it had been first bombed from the
air may cause the United States to
stiffen the stern note which it has
placed before Japan.
No reply has as yet been re-
ceiyed to Americas original de-
mands for full apologies, COM
plete reparations and definite as
surances" or to President Roose-
velt's memorandum, insisting that
his feeling of shock and concern
be placed directly before the EN-
peror of Japan.
In the Capital it was regarded
as likely that the United States,
now armed with confirmed eyewit-
nesseS and official reports of the
assault which rule out any plea
of mistake or accident" will now
adopt most hard-boiled attitude.
Hull refused to discuss
this.

MelanchOlia
By DR.. W. D. Brown
DIR. w. ID. Brown

In some people, there is a marked
change in personality about middle
age. They seem TO age suddenly
Uut of all normal proportion ana
worry becomes a dominant factor
IN their lives. While men may be
ucLims OF this early senIIe cnange,
che condition Is more frequent III
women and corresponds WIN the
menOpause. The cause of TINS early
change is aScubed to herediIy,
emotional shock, mental stress, en-
docrlne dyStunctlOn or InOaIance.
The latter probably is the most i'm
portant factor because proper at
IGNITION to the endocrine glands
helps or cures a large proportion
OF these cases.
The term, lnvolution melanchoha,
has been applied to this changed
mental and physical condition OF
middle life. One so affected usu-
ally does not realize that there is
a mental alteration. She COM
plans of headache, dizziness, loss
OF appetite, insomnia, weight loss
and pain here and there. She is
usually apprehensiye of some i'm
pending danger, she knows not
what. Often she imagines some
unimportant fact of her life as an
objectionable sin. She is sure that
her soul is lost and that she will
suffer torment eternally. Death is
spoken of as temporary relief and
suicide is always a potential dan
ger unless she is watched carefully.
Much can be done to help these
cases. The relatives should under
stand what can be accomplished by
medical treatment so that they
may know how to cooperate with
the physician. If necessary, insti-
tutional care must be begun early
if there is no response to "home
treatment" The percentage of re-
covery until recently was about 40.
However, since the introduction Of
theeln, a glandular product to be
given intramuscularly, many ply
sicians report percentage of re-
covery approximating 80.

It's a nice idea at any time, and
is particularly enjoyable just

already so, and you will not
only demand gardenias from
your best beau, but will also
want some new gardenia per-
fume to prolong the fragrance.
The store is having plenty of
gardenias about, and is show
ing seven different gardenia
perfumes. With the real
flowers, you can better select
the odeur which seems to you
the nearest to the blossom frag-
rance. Of course all other
things such as toilet water and

Beauty
the Skin
Clean
By DONNA GRACE

Soap and water are and always
have been our best means Of keep
ing the skin clear and refined.
There are times, as you know,
when We think it advisable to dis
pense with this method of cleans
ing the skin, but it is only for the
dry, sensitive type. Even this deli
cate skin should have a regular
cleansing with soap and water
but it is necessary to apply pro-
tective and soothing treatments
afterwards.
The scarf skin or cuticle sheds
imperceptibly, and the soap and
water are the best means of remov-
ing this chiffon-like film so that
the surface will be smooth. A
little complexion brush is really
the best means of friction with
the soap and water. Then it is
nice to use the tips OF the fingers
to massage the creamy soap lather
around the nose, eyes and mouth.
The rinSing is the important
part of the operation-first in
tepid, then cool or ice-cold water
to remove the soap and firm the
skin. The cream is applied and
the cleansing cream or a very thin
tissue cream is better for this first
application than the firmer tissue
creams. 1t lubricates the tissues
so the massage cream is spread
more readily.
When the thorough creaming
follows the use of soap and water,
the skin will never become dry
and irritated. Girls whose skin
is dry should not use soap and
water if they do not have the
time to follow it with the sooth-
ing application of cream.
Use the cream and then a
LIQUID tonic or freshener to re-
move the film. This method is
used by many mature women who
found soap and water harmful.
We know a few who boast Of
the fact they have not used
soap and water for years. They
all have nice refined skin, but we
believe a frequent careful ablu.
ton of soap and water would
be a more satisfactory cleansing
method.
Fresh air, sunlight and soap
and water cleansing are the
necessary factors for producing
the youthful, translucent quality
we find so desirable.
