CHINA AND JAPAN
BATTLEFOR CARGO
Possession of Scrap Iron on
Ship in U. S. Port Sought

1y the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, May s.-Chinese
and japanese interests maneuvered
today for a clean-cut victory in the
legal hattie over possession OF 1000
tons Of scrap iron aboard the freighter
Kwang Yuan, anchored in San Fran
cisco Bay.
Twenty Chinese sailors were in con-
troll Of the ship and the Chinese flag
was flying over 1t, but the Japanese
hoped for legal coup d'etat.
The Kwang Yuan, formerly an
American freighter, was purchased
last year by Chinese shipping inter-
ests at Chefoo. After Japanese mill
tary forces occupied Chefoo the jap
Anese claimed they had bought the
kwang Yuan. They caused 1t to be
loaded with scrap iron for japanese
munitions factories. But because of its
Chinese registry American authorities
refused to clear the Kwang Yuan as
a Japanese ship.
Chinese sailors fought with their
three japanese officers and chased
them ashore. The Chinese Consul
General in San Francisco then an
nounced the Chinese national govern
n1ent had appropriated the vessel as
"warship."
In Federal Court Saturday Judge
Harold Louderback upheld a motion
OF attorneys for the Yokohama Specie
Bank barring any outsiders from lay
Ing claim to the iron.
The court, however, allowed the
Cnlnese government eight days to de-
eide If it wished to claim the cargo.
Attorneys for the Chinese Consul Cen
eral showed little interest in the
legal title to the iron, but served
notice they would fight any effort
OF the japanese for court order
to require the ship to move to a pier
for possible discharge of its cargo.
