Kin Of AmericanS Wall
In Vain for Word Of
japanese Liner
Totuto Moru Silent;
Headed for SEQ After
Order Freezing Assets
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 28.-Anx-
ious relatives of Americans aboard
the big japanese liner Tatuta Maru
sought in vain today for any hint of
the whereabouts of the ship which
turned about a few mile soft the
Golden Gate and steamed out to
sea when President Roosevelt Or
dered freezing of japanese assets
in the United States.
The Tatuta, with PAT passengers
including Americans, Europeans and
Japanese, was due in last Thursday,
but idled off the Golden Gate in
apparent anticipation of the Presi-
dents freezing order. Finally 1t
messaged 1t would be in early Sat-
urday. Then came the Presidents
order. and later a second message
telling of further delay.
Since then there has been no word
from the liner. which also carries a
s2,500,000 cargo of silk. Unofficial
sources here said even code mes
sageS sent by the ship would be
heard ashore here. and recognized
as coming from here. 1t was as
sumed the liner has been receiving
instructions from the home office in
Toxic.
N. Y. K. line officials here said
the vessel was we'll stocked with
food, but that she would need fuel
soon. However, several Japanese
tankers laden with oil sailed hastily
from West coast ports before the
Presidents order became effective.
and it was supposed the liner could
easily be refueled at sea.
Forty other japanese vessels en-
route to America when the freezing
order was announced also have
maintained strict silence. Coast
Guard officers at San Pedro re-
ported seeing the N. Y. K. line
freighter Sagami Maru change

In Washington. Treasury sources
speculated that the Tatuta Maru and
other japanese ships standing of
the West Coast would put into
Mexico soon TO discharge American
passengers and cargo and pick up
fuel for the return to Japan.

day.
"A dispatch from Stockholm

A statement made public by Tass,

BY the present time, the ex-

cations in the u. S. S. r. of all
countries which entered the war

hand has been effected.
only the government Of Finland,
refusing to reckon in this matter
with international usage. under
various artificial preteXts delays the
departure of personnel of the Soviet
legation. trade representation and
consulates and refuses to permit the
departure of Soviet engineers and
other Soviet officials who were in
Finland before the war in connec-
ton with Soviet orders for Finnish
firms.
I'm this connection the Peoples
Commissariat of Foreign Affairs ad
dressed the Swedish government,
which undertook protection of the
interests of the U. S. S. r. in Fin
land, requesting it to intervene in
this matter and take steps to induce
the government of Finland to dis
continue these unlawful delays and
effect the exchange of personnel of
legations of both countries in con-
formance with international usage"
Bulgarian Charge Denied.
At the same time it was announced
that Foreign Affairs Vice CommiSsar
Andre j. Vishinsky had denied a
Bulgarian government charge that
three Soviet parachutists landed in
Bulgaria on July IA and declared
instead they were sent by the Ger
man military command from Ru-
mania"
Thus the version about the land
ing of Soviet parachutists in Bull
garia is devoid of any foundation
and was launched by German quar-
ters with provocational purpose, ~
said an announcement of Vishin-
sky's action, carried by Tass.
Vishinsky likewise denied Bull
garian charges that Soviet planes
had bombed number of Bulgarian
