To Visit Santa in MARYLAND

A report that Santa Claus is liv.
ing near Laurel, Md, spread by pro-
moters of an industrial venture, is
almost getting out of hand, it was
learned yesterday.
Two thousand free train tickets
offered children on the radio for
a visit to Santas home have been
spoken for, and the sponsors are
looking into the possibilities. OF
chartering buses to meet the con-
tinuing demand.
1t all started when Harry H.
Helm, manufacturer of Christmas
tree ornaments who bought the
town of Savage from the cotton mill
interests that owned it, decided to
run special trains Saturday to bring
children to a Christmas show on
the occasion of his remaining the
town Santa Helm (Santas home).
He asked Station WTOP to offer
the tickets.

None of the five apparently was

and their families milled about in
the corridors.
Mr.. Sharp issued a statement de-

Mr. Mallard was shot twice. His

County officers absolved the Ku

The killing brought Joseph M
Goldwasser, of Cleveland, to Georgia
to investigate the case in the in

acted on his own. He Is q member

Mr.. Goldwasser obtained the
statement from Mrs. Mallard NAM

She has been in hiding in Savannah
Ca, saying she believed she would
be lynched If she returned to Lyons
to swear out warrants.
The statement and other evidence
obtained by Mr.. Goldwasser was
brought to Atlanta yesterday and
turned over to Gov. Talmadge.
Before todays action, Sheriff
Gray and the GB1 said they were
content to turn the case over to
the regular February session of the
grand jury.
Gov. Talmadge asked Mr.. Gold
wasser If the widow was ready to
swear out warrants against the two
men she named. Mr.. Goldwasser
replied that the widow feared she
would be lynched If she returned.
The Governor replied he would
give her ample protection" by the

300 Chinese Believed Lost
In Explosion of Refugee Ship

Guesses ranged from Communist
sabotage to a floating mine or pos
sihly overtaxed boilers.
The ships radio was knocked out
and no distress call was sent. The
loss was not discovered until Satur-:
day morning, when passing coastal
ship sighted the funnel and bit
of wrecked superstructure protrud-
ing above the shallow water.
Officials of the line which operated
the ship said its top capacity was
supposed to be 1,186 persons. They
estimated that actually it carried as
many as 4,250, half Of whom had
boarded without tickets.
Of1cials said on many recent trips
since the Communist invasion scare
began, more than 1900 persons had
clambered aboard.
They estimated 5000 missing plus
200 bodies recovered.
No non-Chinese were known to
have been aboard.

Quake

16 years ago, residents reported
hearing a rumble preceding the
rocking temblor.
Test for Red Cross.
Ped Cross disaster units were
alerted throughout the metropolitan
area and officials said it turned
into an excellent test, although no
emergency work was needed.
At California Institute of Tech
nology, Pasadena, DR.. Charles F.
Richter timed the quake's onset
at 4:43.42 pm. Pacific Daylight
Time-6:43.42 Eastern Standard
Time. He said its magnitude was
90 on a chronological scale which
rates the worlds most severe quakes
at 81a. The disastrous Long Beach
quake of 1888 was 6A, but it oc-
Cured in a much more populouS
area.
DR.. Richter put the apparent
center at 100 miles southeast OF
Pasadena, roughly between the
desert cities of Indio and Twenty
Nine Palms.
Water Tank Collapses.
From Santa Barbara on the north
to San Diego on the south, and
inland to the Colorado River, the
tremor was reported varyingly as
light to heavy. Palm Springs police
called 1t the most severe in is years
In downtown Los Angeles, police
said a water tank collapsed and a
building at Seventh and Hill streets
developed a crack.
Mt. San Jacinto, which biologists
believe may once have been a VOL
cano, is fringed by San Andreas
fault-California'S S longest and larg-
est. 1t is on this fault that severe
San Francisco Santa Barbara and
El Centro earthquakes have oc-
Cured since the turn of the century.
A San Bernardino radio operator
reported he heard an operator in
the Moreno Valley, east of River
side, say he saw dust for distance
of 8 miles along the fault. Hemet,
where a severe quake shook down
buildings in 1921, reported sharp
quake but no serious damage.

ing them to get in their orders
early. Then we offered the tickets
to meet Santa Claus on the air.
1.-THE tickets to the two trains
were gone in no time, and then in
came an order from an orphanage
for 300 tickets. I called Bill Bayne,
Mr.. Helms representative, and told
him he had better hire another
train. He said the siding out there
would only hold two trains. I told
him he better see what he could do
with buses"
The application to the change of
the towns name to Santa Helm is
before the Post ONCE Department
but no announcement that the re-
quest has been granted has been
made It was pointed out by
hackers of the idea, however. thai
mail addressed to Santa Helm al
ready is being delivered at Savage.

SHANGHAI, Dec. More than
3,2o0 Chinese were estimated dead
orsmissing tonight in the explosion
Of an overcrowded refugee ship in
the Yangtze estuary.
Lack OF passenger records made
possibly only the roughest figures.
The exact toll never will be known.
Even approximate accuracy, how
ever, ranks the disaster as the
greatest in modern maritime his
tory, including single-ship casual
ties Of major wars.
Estimates of those rescued ranged
from a low of 100 to a high of TOO.
The 2,099-ton steamer Kiangya
sailed from Shanghai Friday for
Ninghsien (Ningpo), 200 miles down
the coast. It exploded about 10 pm.
Friday and sank within an hour, all
available survivors agreed. Cause Of
the explosion was not known.

"a Children Among Groups.
According to records available
here, there was nothing in their
health or security records to prevent
their entry into the United States.
For more than two months, they
nave been detained while diplo-
matte machinery was set in motion
which may result In their being
sent back to Sweden unless the in
tervention of Mr.. Mccormack is
successful.
Forty-six women and "a children
were included among the 236 Baltic
refugees who have come to this
country in small boats since late
l945.
The first group arrived at Norfolk,
Va, December Is, 1945, after cross
ing from Sweden in the sloop Erna.
Il consisted of seven men, four
women and five children. Two OF
them were Russians and IA were
Estonians. They were admitted as
visitors on waiver OF visas by the
State Department, and their vessel
was sold by the owners.
The next group, II men, 6 women
and one child, all Estonians, arrived
at Miami August 81, 1946, in small
craft called the Inanda. These were
followed ON September 9 by another
group IN the Brill-eight men, three
women and one child. OF this group,
10 were Estonians, one Finnish and
one Russian. A third group which
landed at Miami on September %
in the Linda was composed of II
Estonians and one Russian-13 men,
four women and one child.
Boat Sunk as Unseaworthy.
It was in behalf of these three
groups that President Truman in
tervened and they were paroled. Two
of their boats were sold by their
owners and the third, the Brill,
was sunk by the Coast Guard as
"unseaworthy."
Twenty-three Estonians and one
Latvian-14 men, nine women and
one child-landed at Savannah, Ca,
September 16, 1947. after crossing
III a small boat they called the
Edith. Twenty-three of them gained
admittance to Canada. and one was
permitted to remain in this country
pending congressional action on a
bill introduced in his behalf. Their
boat was stored at immigration ex-
pense.
Eight more Estonians-three men,
three women and two children-ar-
rived at Miami October /, 1947, in
the sloop Dockan and they were
paroled subject to legislation in
troduced in their behalf. Their
sloop was left at Miami in care Of
prospective purchaser.

tions were let off with warnings at
that time. The current list includes
many prominent District clergymen.
Mr.. King said yesterday he feels
the ministers received sufficient
warning last spring through the
newspaper accounts published at
that time.
'If they have been violating the
law since then" he said, Il am
going to require that substantial
collateral be posted this time" He
added that it will be up to the
clergymen either to forfeit any such
collateral or to stand trial.
1.-THE idea is to get across to them
that we mean business" declared
the prosecutor. "They have no ex-
cuse for not knowing the law-it
is quoted on the license itself"
Ministers have cited various reas-
ons for the delay including the fact
that some persons take out licenses
without using them. To obtain a
license it Is necessary to name the
clergyman who is expected to marry
the couple, hence the clergyman's
name some times may be used
without his ever knowing about it.
Maximum penalty is a $50 fine or
q year in jail in cases OF overdue
marriage reports.

Truman Acted In One Case.
Their arrival accentuated a prob
lem from the immigration Service
and State Department which has
been increasing since the end of the
war. Their entry into the United
States lis illegal since the immigra-
ton laws, as they stand, exclude
adventurous newcomers who arrive
without proper papers.
Their status has been in doubt
because groups which arrived earlier
were permitted to stay. In one case
President Truman himself inter-
vened to prevent the deportation OF
three boat loads of refugees who
landed at Miami. Fla, In 1916.
Government officials decided tc
adopt a f1rmer attitude toward
such refugees and for that reason
steps were taken to send the Es-
tonians back to Sweden. One rea-
son given for the firmer stand is
that to permit unauthorized arrivals
to remain in this country gives them
an unfair advantage over other
would-be immigrants. In some
cases there is a wait Of three years
to enter the United States because
of low immigration quotas. Estonia
for example, has an annual quota OF
only 1l6.
In line with this firmer attitude
the Estonians who arrived at Will
mington, after routine health and
security checks, were taken by train
to Ellis Island to await disposition
Of their cases. AT their request. the
