By japanese Sentry,
Held Four Hours
BULLETIN.

observing with concern the in
creasing number of Japanese
American incidents in China.
He made this statement as he

sentry at Hankow.
BY the Associated Press.
The Navy announced today that
strong protest had been lodged
with Japanese officials against
the manhandling of Robert A. Baker
American naval warrant officer, by
Japanese naval sentry at Hankow,
China.
In lengthy report on the Incl
dent. the Navy said Admiral Harry
E. Yarnell, commander of the
American Asiatic Fleet, had forward
ed a report by 1t. Comdr. Orville F.
Gregor at Hankow. The latter said
Mr.. Baker had suffered minor in
juries on the face and arms.
Comdr. George contended the in
cident was entirely the fault of the
japanese sentry. He said he had
addressed strong letter to the
senior japanese naval officer pro-
testing this treatment of an Amer
lean officer
In HankoW, japanese naval au-
thorities announced an amicable
settlement had been reached on the
incident.
American naval officials in Han

reported settlement, saying only
that mo apology was rendered the
Japanese"
Mr.. Baker was manhandled
severely and detained four hours
after he became embroiled in an
argument with a japanese sentry.
The misunderstanding was said to
have resulted from language diff
culties when the sentry sought to
have Mr.. Baker walk on the left
side of the street instead of the
right side as is the custom In
HankoW.

NEW YORK, June 5. (UP) -
Without consulting the American

named Johnstown has appointed
himself attorney for the defense.
