Located inI. Y.

Imprial county peace officers
found three runaways ranging in
age from IA to 80 years Tuesday
and restored them to their families
or guardians.
Milton Moore, 82-year-old San
Diegan, was found in Holtville and
sent back to the coast city. He
wandered away from a boarding
home there last Sunday and went
to Holtville to look after business
he thought he had there.
A l4-year old San Diego boy was
taken to the County Detention
home while deputy sheriffs attempt
ed to ascertain why he ran away from
ranch where he was working
near Ell Centre. He returned to the
ranch voluntarily but the rancher
asked the officers to take charge of
him.
Antonio Luzano, 81, was arrested
on charge of child stealing when
he attempted to enter California
from Arizona with a 16-year- -old
Phoenix girl. They were released
to Phoenix officers.

Grim Search for

Thousands Homeless, 200
Hurt by Blast, Fire
In Auto Chemical Plant

CAMDEN, N. j., July 81.
(UP)-Firemen grotesquely
clad in asbestos suits began
grim search today through
the rubble and still smoul-
dering debris of the Camden con-
flagration for the bodies of nine
men and women missing and be-
lieved to have perished in the ST.
100000 holocaust.
Two men were dead, "a fireman
and an employe Of the r. M. Hol-
lingshead Company, the worlds
largest ckemical plant here where
a series of 35 terrific explosions
started the fire that swept the
building, leaped to 54 homes in
the immediate area and left all a
mass of ruins.
One thousand were homeless and
200 injured or burned while flee
ing from the factory amid a shower
of blazing oil and chemicals.
The known victims were Raymond
Harter, 38, of CollingsWood, an en-
ploye who succumbed at Cooper
hospital of first, second and third
degree burns; and William Merri-
gan, 48, Camden hoseman who COL
lapsed while fighting the blaze and
died last night at the hospital.
Four of the 80 taken to the hos
pital were reported in critical con-
dition and physicians feared they
might die.
An attempt was made last night
to search the ruins by Philadelphia
and Chester, Pa, firemen, but they
were forced to give up the grim
tax because of the intense heat.
The five-story brick structure,
located scant three blocks from
Camden's main thoroughfare, was
in ruins a half hour after the first
of the explosions

T. Nakashima, Hollywood cafe
proprietor and one of the defend
ants, Wednesday morning denied
knowledge of any death threats
assertedly made against H. Yama-
toda, japanese gambling boss, while
the latter was in custody of Oswalt.
ross-examined by Attorney Lor-
rim Andrews, Nakashima related
details of a trip he made to Ell
Centre on the day Yamatoda was
taken there. But he denied having
heard a conversation between sew
eral of the Japanese defendants
and Yamatoda in which the re-
mark was made, Lets not turn
Yamatoda over to OsWalt Let's
finish him up"
This conversation assertedly Oc-
cured just after Yamatoda reached
Ell Centro in Oswalt's custody. Os-
walt had testified, however, he was
under the influence of intoxicants
and did not remember anything
about visit to the Little Tokyo
club in FL Centro where the threats
were aSsertedly made.
Nakashima followed SetSuzo Ota,
another defendant, to the stand
Ota Tuesday afternoon had denied
any knowledge of kidnapping plot
involving Yamatoda.
Ota, known as 1.-The professor" by
his associates, is a former husband
of Lucy Banning, socialite, who left
him $500,000.
Through an interpreter, Ota said
that while there was some enmity
between Yamatoda and the de-
PENDANTS in the case, he knew of
no plot to kidnap Yamatoda and
denied participation in it. Ota in
timated it was Yamatoda' interest
in the profits of the Tokyo club
at Ell Centre that caused all of the
trouble.
He related conversations that
took place on the occasion of va
matoda's visit to the club when he
was taken to Ell Centre by OswalU.
He denied there were any threats
made against Yamatoda at thai
time.

That action came as Secretary
of War Henry L. Stimson in strong
terms urged both the Senate and
House Military Affairs committees
to approve the conscription meas

In a personal appearance before
the House group he pictured a pos

that of the budget bureau. Com

implying presidential sanction.

about 100000 men, compared to
