 on. The Woolsons were en route Co New Haven where they were to visit Montgomery Woolson, who is a pa- tent at the New Haven hospital. The visit was Q tragic coincidence.
 Montgomery Was Hurt
 Two weeks ago Montgomery Wool son was injured criticallf at almost the same spot on the woodbridge road when his car was struck by an oil truck, also making Q turn into o side road. For several days his name remained on the danger list at the hospital, but last week his condition was improved.
 Mir. Woolson, ST., had been Q prominent resident of Naugatuck for the past twenty years and was sec- retary-treasurer of the Eastern Malleable Iron company for many years.
 The funeral will be held at 2 O. clock Wednesday from the funeral parlors of Beecher and Bennett in New Haven with burial in New Haven.
 Mfr. Woolson is survived by his wife, Louise. two sons, George, Jr. and Montgomery, two daughters, Mrs. Marjorie Hair and Esther Woolson, all of Naugatuck; and one brother, James of Morris Cove. Native of New Haven Mir. Woolson was a native of New Haven, having been born there on Aug. 22, 1870. His schooling was had in that city and his first employ Foent was with the Winchester Re. beating Arm company. At that time he was also Q member of the famous New Haven QrAys, National Guard unit. From 1000 to 1904 he worked as accountant for the Beacon Falls Rubber Show company, going in the latter year to Wilmington, Del, where he was employed by the WI. rnington MallCable Iron company as cashier and purchasing agent. He remained in that position until Jan- uary 30, i0i6, where he was named to Q responsible position with the Artillery Fuse company of Whining ton. On November II, 1917, he came Malleahle Iron.
 On January 2S, 1918, he was elect. cd treasurer of the company, and six years later the office of secre- tary was also added to his respon- abilities. He had held both offices since. He was the first president of the Naugatuck Building and Loan association and only resigned that office in February, 1886.
 Naugatuck residents were profuse in expressions ot sorrow for the family with two members, Mir. and Mrs. Montgomery Woolson, still hos. pital inmates, the latter on the dan- ger list, the father dead, and one son expected to be discharged from the hospital today.

 It was emphasized ct the White House that no official coinmunicas ton on the bombing has beon res ceived from the Japanese goyefns inent. Information ct the White House revealed that the American giinboat was believed out of tho war zone when tho bombers attacked. Early said that reports to the White House said tho lieutenant Com. inander ]. J. Hughes of the Panay hnd chosen his position to avoid becoming the target for Japanese bombs.

 London, Dec. i3--(UP).- Great Britain hos protested strongly to Japan against yesterdays attacks on British Warships and tugs n the YangtSe, Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden informed c queStioner today ir the house of commons.
 "The seriousness of these incidents needs no otnphasis," Eden declnred
 Not only are American as,d Drit. iBh diplomats at Tokyo and in Chi. no in constant contact, 1t was said but British-American diIcussions are proceeding both hero and in Washington.
 No suggestion of joint action was given. Rather, it was said, the govs ornmofitB were consulting oac1 Cth. CT on what action each might take ifi view of what seemed Co both to Do an increasingly grave situation iii China.
 Key Ministers Called In
 Prime Minister Neville Chamber lain called key minister's into an emergency conference by telephone today regarding attacks on four British gunboats and two tugs and tho doath of . seaman aboard the gunboat Ladybird.
 Then Chamberlain talked ct length with Foreign Secretary Ans thcfy Eden and arranged for him to make . statement iil the governs fnent's behalf in the house Of com. mons this afternoon.
 The general reaction iii well ins formed quarters here was that the situation iil China aA regards fors eigii nations was getting worse.
 Chamberlain was reported to be considering c stern protest to the Japanese government against the attacks ofi the British ships and c demand for compensation, c fors maj apology and punishment Of the offenders.
 Two 0Ovts. Consult

 He refused to reply to a question on whether there had been cOnver- sati0ns with the Netherlands gOv- erninent about defense cooperation in the Far East.

Japan Officials
 Admit Attacks
Continued from Page D

"At 9:30 Q. m. Dec. lS, (20 hours later) the American ambassador ct Hankow received e telephone fnes- sage from pr. II. B. Taylor, Ar1eri- can missionary stationed at Anklng, Anhui province, stating that he had received Q telephone message from George Atcheson, Jr, the senior American diplomatic ofiicer on board the Panay, saying the Panay had been bombed and sunk, and that b4 of the persons on board had survived.
 Five OH Ships There
 "Atcheson was then at Hohsien, Anhui, and presumably the other survivors were there also. Atcheson stated to Dr. Taylor that the ships of the Standard oil company ari- chored near the Panay were sunk aS well. It is thought that five of these vessels were there, but 1t Is not known whether all were lost.
 "The report stated that 10 surviv. ors, including one Italian, were wounded, some of them seriously"
 The British 0unboat Bee, reported to have been under fire yesterday from Japanese aerial and land forces, put out to bring the sur. vivors of the Panay to Wuhu. The American gunboat Oahu, sister ship of the Panay was ordered from Kiu- kiang to Wuhu to pick up the sur- vivors and take them up river to Hankow.
 Survivors Menaced
 Atcheson, In c later report to Johnson through Dr. Taylor, howE ever, said the survivors were men. aced by Japanese machine gun fire on the town of Hohsien, and he thought they would be unable to go to the river bank to board the res- cue vessel. He asked that the Jap- anese authorities be requested not to attack Hohsien.
 This information was relayed to the Japanese authorities In Shang- hal through American Consul Gen. eral Clarence E. Gauss, and the Jap. anese consul general there informed him that both the Japanese military and naval commanders had issued orders for the Japanese forces to 'cease firing" ct Hohsien. A special Japanese plane took off from Shang- hale with duplicate, written orders suspending the attack Oil Hohsien.
 A statement from Secretary of State Cofdell Hull was anticipated early in the day. Reserving cofn- rrent as reports from Hohslen, Han- kow and Shanghai poured in, Hull said ho hoped to Do able to assemble complete information early today.
 Relations Have Been Bhaky
 It was recalled that Aiiierican- Japanese relations have become steadily more strained since the Sino-Japanese fighting began at Shanghai. Time and again American officials at Shanghai have protested Japanese actions, and these have been supplemented on several occa- sions by more formal representa- tons from the state department di- rect to the Tokyo foreign office.
 A few days ago c serious incident was narrowly averted when Japan- csc troops, participating fin Japan's victory parade" through the Inter- national Settlement ct Shanghai, attempted to occupy and set Up barbed wire defenses in the sector guarded by U. s. marines. Col. Charles Price, commander of the fourth regiment of U. S. marines, exchanged hot words with tho Jap. anese military commander, and the Japanese troops withdrew from the sector.

alongside the Kaiyuan warf and tho Standard oil boats Meiarl and Meishsa were burning on the beach nearby.
 Additional Survivors
 Pickering, according to the mes. sage, told the ships officers thAt additional survivors were on the loft bank of the river. Tine Sec sent c party to attempt to locate them:
 Another message from the Bee said that the ship had Investigated the north bank of the YangtBe, where Panay survivors had been re-. ported, and had soen no signs of fife. The Standard oil Tanker Meiaii was deserted, the Bee said. Tho boat apparently had been hit by c bomb on the bridge and was beaehed.
 An outboard Sainpan from the Panay was recovered c half.tnile downstream, according to the incS' sage.
 No Word of Return Fire
 There was no indication iii the cables aS to whether the Panay at- tempted to fight off the attacking bornbers with her antl.aircfaft bat- teries. ofIicials here, however as:. Suined that the American vessel oi war had fired on the attacking planes when 1t became the. direct target of the bombs.
 state Department officials worked until nearly 1 c. iii. assembling cables from U. s. representatives n the Far East, and returned to their ofiices early today to resume work. It was reported that this country was collaborating closely with Great Britain in studying the situation, although there were no definite indl' cations here to substantinte the re- port.
 U. S. Policy Being Decided
 Policy of the U. 8. Government was bein determined ct the urgent conference of Hull and his advisers.
 Among department heads ct the conference were UnderSecretary or StntO Sumner Wolics, Assistant Secretary Hugh Wilson; R, Walton Moore, counsellor Of the State De' partf,1ef,t, Stanley Hornbeck; spec ciai adyisor to Hui on Far Eastern fnatters. and Max Hamilton, chief of the division of Tar Eastern as- fairs. l.,
 Hornbeck recently arrived ifi Washington from Brussels where nc was Q member of thC American Allegation to the conference Of nine power treaty signatories.
 President Calls Mull
 President Roosevelt summoned secretary of State Cordell Hull foi a conference ct noon to discuss the situation which was regarded as the most serious g1Tice inception Of sif'o' Japanese hcstiIitieg.
 Before going to the White House. Huii summoned department heads and fay-ICasterti advisors Tor on urgent conference.
 stephen T. Early, presidential secretary, said Mir. Roosevelt ib jtudying the situation only from the viewpoint of national welfare, aiid stibordinating ali other ccnsidera. tions, He said the president hoped the press and the Aimericetl people will give him understanding aild support on whatever decisions are made.

the south bank Of the rlVer anu tnat the Meian had been beached and de- serted.
 Comment Withheld
 State department officials with. held comment pending receipt Of complete details. They made no SC. cret of their concern, however, re- garding 1t as the most serious attack made on the American flag since Sino-Japanese hostilities began.
 Indications were that administra. |. ton officials would not be satisfied with mere apologies or expressions Of regret from Japanese officials. A number of congressional leaders al- ready have declared that the united States should demand full satisfac. ton" for the attack on the Panay'
 One foreign diplomat said the at tack on the Panay might prove to be the turning point" In Japan's undeclared war on China; that 1t might be the opening wedge With which democratic nations might band together to halt Japan's mili- tary activities in China. He said the incident might provide Ian excellent chance for concerted action by Great Britain and the United States to stop oil hostilitics In the Far East"
 British suffer As Well
 Tn this connection, officials here noted that almost simultaneous with the attack on the Panay. Jap- anese air and land forces atttacked British naval and merchant river ships, One British sailor was re ported killed and several wounded.
 The suddenness of the Panay inc cident stunned officials here. The state department, closed over the week end except for the telegraph and code rooms, was hurriedly rec opened when first reports were rec ceived. The navy department also was kept open. ..
 It was believed that copies of all official dispatches concerning the incident were sent to the White House immediately.
 Panay Attack Most Serious
 Officials considered the attack or, the Panay the more serious because Admiral Harry E. Yarnell, com- mandeg- In -chief of the U. s. Asiatic fleet repeatedly had notified the Japanese naval and military au- thorities of the presence of the Panay ana other American river gunboats in the Yangtze, of their mission there, and of their move- ments. Neither the Japanese inili- tary nor naval authorities could have been ignorant of the approxi- mate whereabouts of the Panay, it was said.
 Official reports of the incident were sketchy. American Ambassa- dor Nelson T. Johnson, from his temporary embassy aboard the U. S. Gunboat Luzon at Hankow, ten. tatively fixed the time of the bomb. Ing at l.30 D. fl,, Dec. l2, Hankow time. This would be l2:30 a. fi., D. s. T. Sunday.
 Ambassador Johnson Reports
 Tn formal statement given to the American newspaper men iil Han. kow, Johnson said:
 At 1880 p. m. Dec. 12, 1887, the radio of the U. s. s. Panay ceased operating In the midst of message which was being received by the U. s. s. Luzon at Hankow.
 At that time the Panay was an. chored 20 miles above Ranking.
 Tt is estimated that besides the crew, the Panay carried four inem- bers of the embassy staff and five other American men. It is also thought that one British and three Italian subjects were on board.

ard ships did so in the belief that he had done good job by bombing Chinese ships carrying troops.
 "When he found what he had done he was extremely contrite," Admiral Honda, navy spokesman, said.
 Admiral Honda said that orders had been given to Japanese airmen to be most cautious fin future in their bombing along the Yangtze.
 Funeral services were held at Wu- hu today for the British tar killed aboard the Ladybird. A British bishop ofilciated. Japanese army men provided the bier. A represen- tative of the Japanese senior officer and two officers and 12 men ct. tended the funeral.
 Further Incidents
 Further incidents were reported in dispatches. British official ad- vices asserted that 30 Japanest army men landed in British terri tory near Hong Kong Saturday al. legedly in pursuit of Chinese rive ermen, and, raiding q farm, carried off chickens. Japanese Saturday. 1t was reported only today, fired on a launch flying German flag at Kiangnan and beat Swiss citizen, Jean Jacques Cometese, woh rec fused to obey an order to board c Japanese tug there.
 Japanese reported that at last they were penetrating Ranking, on the third day of their mass attack. They gained e foOthold on the city wall, 1t was asserted, then entered the Chungshan gate and, reaching q group of government buiIdings. drove Chinese troops from the Ov- ernment military academy.
