The third American casualty was Miss Blanche Tenney, a Shaighaiborn United States citizen, who suffered minor injuries.

The foreign death-toll mounted when A. U. Brunner, a Swiss citizen injured when shells fell around the intersection of Nanking and Chekiang roads, "the Times Square" of Shaighai, died of his wounds. Klaus Eckhart, a 16- year old German, was killed instantly in this shelling. Other Chinese shells circling a high arc from the defense batteries Pootung dropped in crowded streets of the International Settlement, killing at least 150 other persons.

These new mass killings in the very center of the settlement, for decades an inviolable sanctuary where thousands of foreigners live and billions in foreign capital are invested, occurred without warning as fighting raged throughout the Shanghai area. The Sincere department store, a five million dollar structure built a few years ago and one of the tallest skyscrapers the Far East, was jammed with shoppers. With a whistle screech, followed by a deafening explosion, and exploded a within the building one shell crashed through itself, reducing the interior to shambles and crushing most of the victims beyond recognition. Another huge shell burst just outside, while smaller missiles sprayed the south corner of the store's ola and new buildings and the central facade. Several persons were in the building hundred, time, calmly purchasing necessities and luxuries.

Those inside had no warning whatever, while scores in the streets heard only the screech of shells before they struck and exploded with an impact that shattered windows and rocked buildings for blocks around. Walls caved in and ceilings fell. Tons of bricks, mortar and timbers fell in on the hapless victims. Through the yawning aperture left by the gigantic shell sunlight steamed in upon a scene of horror and desolation. Scores of dead, their bodies blown to bits, lay about.

Some were decapitated, some deprived of arms and legs, some 30 mangled and mutilated there was no hope of recognition. Shells From Pootung The shells which wrecked the department store as well as those which killed persons in the streets, came from Pootung. The Japanese plane which was target of this civilian' massacre dropped a single bomb which struck United States marine granary, causing small damage. Dud On U. S.

Warehouse While scores of shells boomed around the "Times Square" of Shanghai, at the intersectional of Nanking and Chekiang roads, a "dud" tell from the roof to the ground floor of the five story United States Navy warehouse on Szechwan road. It did not explode. Near the American consulate. only three blocks south, a shell hit Hamilton House, at the corner of Kiangse and Foochow roads. Landing of the 50,000 Japanese reinforcements, bringing the total to around 75,000 in the Shanghai area, against 200,000 to 300.000 Chinese, came in spite of torrid shelling from Chinese batteries in the wide triangle at the confluence of the Yangtze and Woosung Rivers.

Confirmation that a "big push" by the Japanese will rock Shanghai within a few days was voiced by a spokesman for the military high command, Major Naotake Utsunomiya. "In view of their provocative attitude," said the major, "we hope to deal a decisive blow against the Chinese troops before they have withdrawal. a chance to make a strategic "We expect to have the Shanghai area cleared of hostilities very shortly." estimated that the Japanese facing seven fineness divisions, four of the first three of the second." Chinese troops launched a general offensive, in all sectors this morning, Utsunomiya admitted, but all were unsuccessful. U. S.

Protecting Nationals Washington, Aug. by the Shanghai holocaust, in which 350 died as two Chinese artillery shells wrecked an 18-story department store, the United States government today made two swift moves to protect its nationals there. These were: 1. Complete evacuation of "nonessential "Americans from the warwrecked metropolis will be enforced, it was learned, or those refusing to leave will remain at their own risk. 2.

A sharp note of protest over the shelling was addressed to the central government in the hope it might halt further bombardment of the international settlement. The latest warfare's horrors to be wreaked on a great city brought President Roosevelt one step closer to invocation of the neutrality act, a step he thus far avoided because war has not been officially declared between China and Japan, nor have they formally severed diplomatic relations. It was stated in authoritative circles, however, that this action, which would declare a "state of war" existing between the two oriental powers and embargo arms and credits to them, might be taken any moment. While the formality of a protest over the department store shelling was gone through, it was beginning to be admitted privately in high official circles here that the only hope of saving Americans from the death that strikes without warning from the skies is to get them out of the war zone. A new warning was addressed Americans today to leave the city.

State Department officials said every possible leverage will be used to effect complete and rapid evacuation. The Dollar liner President Pierce was rushing to Shanghai today to take out another shipload of refugees. The Pesident Lincoln will call there the 28th. Meanwhile, with 70,000 Japanese arations were compelled to prep- take posed for a "big push," Americans from the city on American warships if need be. Shanghai, worried officials here fear, is destined to become another Madrid, deserted and wrecked by war's modern horrors.

Arabs To Give Little Heed To Plea Of Jews (Continued From Page 1.) the consensus was that the suggestion of a Federal Arab-Jewish State in an undivided Palestine was foredoomed to failure, Britain, it was argued, having committed herself to the thesis that the Arab and Jewish communities are irreconcilable, will show no disposition to foster a round-table conference. Discussions must center chiefly, then, on the British plan to set up a small Jewish State in a divided Palestine. Resolutions adopted at the closing, session of the Agency Council early yesterday paralleled those of the Zionist Congress, which authorized the Zionist executives to negotiate with Britain for further light on terms of the proposed Jewish State. But the Agency asked Britain to call a conference to explore the possibility of settling ArabJew differences.
