Britain Is Unable To Back Angry
Protest With Any Naval Measures

Even if the United States
should propose any action strong
er than protest and demands
for compensation and guarantees
against any occurrences. it was
believed doubtful that Great Brl-

Behind the British concern over
events in China was equal concern
as to how Germany and Italy

SHANGHAI. Dec. ii. (UP)-
On the basis Of scattered reports
from scores of sources the rag
cdy of the sinking of the L. 5.
gUnboat Panay was reconstructed
IN Shanghai today rs follows:
The Panay. which had been an
chorcd opposite the United States
embassy III Marking for more
than fortnight 50 that she would

the embassy and other Americans
who wished to flee the city when
the Japanese broke through its
walls, left Marking at midday
Saturday after Japanese artillery
had started Smelling Chinese mill
tury transports nearby.

at the last moment, sent Il steady
stream of radios from the warship
until 3:40 p. m. Saturday dcScrlb-
ing the hail of shells through
which the Staunch little l5O-ton
gunboat was proceeding.
The Panay picked up the stan
dard Oil ships just above Marking
and conveyed them through the
night until an anchorage was
reached about 25 miles up stream.
The ships then huddlcd togcth-
rr under instructions from Lieut..
Commander J. }. Hughes of New
York. the Panays commander,
who figured that Japanese filters
would realize that stationary ships
could not be Chinese transports
which naturally would be moving

All the ships were flying the
United States flag and all had the
Stars and Stripes painted on their
hulls and Supcr-structwcS.

The Japanese had one prime OBJ
iectivc - TO smash the huge Chi
nese armies which had been as
scmblcd for the defense of Nam
king and which they had routed.
They were depending largely on
the air force to bomb the Chinese
vessels and complete the task OF
complete annihilation" which
their land forces had begun.
More than 200 Japanese naval
planes were engaged in the bomb
ing operation dropping proJectiles
on every ship they saw.
The Japanese appeared over the
American vessels and let go.
There wa sno time to attempt
a defense as the commanders Of
the American ships had no rea-
son to expect an attack.
Caught off guard, the Panay
and the merchantmen were dis
abled in the first explosions.
II wa sindicated that Lieut.:
Commander Hughes. captain" of
the Panay, was injured in the first
attack along with some of his Of

There was no choice, as the
japanese planes dived again and
again dropping more bombs. but
