Then went with the command

"As I left his Office to go to the
hotel, and had just arrived by auto
mobile at the spot where workmen
had been laying 5-foot drainage
pipes, I left the car to walk -.
"At that moment, they came over
nine planes on close pyramid

Dropped Small Bombs.
This was one of two squadrons,
each of nine planes, which partici-
pated in the attack. One squadron
started by machine-gunning the
construction camp, the other imme-
diately afterward launched the at
tack which I saw. They were over
the island for about five minutes,
dropping what I judged to be fairly

THE bombs fired the hotel, de-
stroyed other Pan American build

fortune no bullets struck a vital

take them aboard to go with US.
Sighted Two Warships.
EN- route to Midway We ''' saw
nothing until we were approaching
Midway and we were within about
40 miles of the island. Then we saw
two surface vessels, destroyers or
cruisers, headed on a course toward
Wake. Midway was completely
blacked out.
"As soon as We landed we reported
this to the naval commandant and
we learned that the attack which
had been made on Midway had been
shelling by surface vessels.
up to that time there had been
no attack on Midway by plane. At
each point we noted an economy of
action, at Wake and at Midway. The
enemy apparently knew the desired
objectives and proceeded directly
for them
"As soon as possible, we proceeded
again, this time with Hawaii as our
destination Again the flight opera
ton itself was routine, we saw moth

flight we took a course for time

II must say that the morale Of
the people in Hawaii is excellent.
The same is true Of the people we
saw at Wake and Midway. These
people are calmly going about their

at the same time taking the neces-

Y. F. W. Leader Goes
To Trial on Charge
Of Violating Oath
Illinois Commander
Brands Accusation
War Monserins'

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2l.-Leaders of
the Veterans of Foreign Wars as
sembled today to try one of their
number, Earl Southard of Chicago,
on charges of violating his men,
hership oath by working for the
Citizens Keep America Out of War
Committee.
Mr.. Southard, Illinois commander
of the veterans organization, was
suspended August 16 by National
Comdr. Joseph C. Menendez of New
Orleans, who ordered a court
martial.
The charges against Mr.. Southard
arose in his own post, Progress, No.
2255, and were filed with the ma
tional organization a short time be-
fore he was chosen last June to
head the Illinois department.
Linked to Attack on Aid Bill.
They set forth that he was Sec
retary of the Citizens Keep Amer
lea Out of War Committee here
and that his name was attached to
one of the committees handbills,
which said, in part, of the lease
lend bill:
H. R. l776 is as viciously uncon-
Stitutional as anything ever advo-
Gated by a tyrannical governor or
king or legislature, either local or
foreign. Like the Stamp Act or
other tyrannical acts, it calls for no
obedience from free men and
women. This way we can preserve
peace and save our republic"
In announcing Mr.. Southard's
suspension, Comdr Menendez COM
mented that, "the v. F. w. has full
confidence in the President of the
United States and we are sworn to
bear true allegiance to the Govern
ment, its laws and institutions"
Naturally" he added, "the Or
ganization is in full accord with aid
to Britain by virtue to the Lease
Lend Act. We must be loyal"
Charges War Mongering.'
Mr.. Southland charged his sus-
pension was war mongering effort
to silence me-" He said Comdr.
Menendez was strong interven-
ZIONIST and close follower of Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
My defense will be based on nv
rlght TO freedom of speech" Mr..
Southard announced. There is
nothing in our organizations con-
stltutlon which can deny my right
to a personal opinion"
II the court martial should up-
hold the charges, the penalty would
be dlshonorable discharge from the
organization. n,ss
Past commanders of II States con.
stituted the court martial with

Judge advocate general and past

the last block of his challenge
match with Jake Schaefer of
Cleveland tonight.
While Hoppe was rushed to a
physicians care, Schaefer con
coded that the New Yorker had
retained the championship.
Hoppe was leading, 429 points
to $50, when the match was inter,
rupted. He had won the first five
60-point blocks of the challenge
match, but lost in the play last
night and this afternoon.
Billiard fans feared he would be
unable to defend his championship
in the tournament opening here
next Monday. Last year he won the
three-cushions crown, achieving %
astounding victories without a de-
feat.
LET Hoppe retain his champion.
Ship" Schaefer said. He is much
too sick to play and he had a big
lead. I wouldn't want the title un-
der those conditions"
