under the blazing sun with sometimes a rag of cloth rigged up as protection from the burning rays thousands of the natives refused to be rescued They clung to the superstitious belief that Hankow Is doomed and refused either to be helped or to help themselves Relief crews worked furiously to aid the destitute but their efforts were limited and the gigantic need Mr relief surpassed local capacities Thousands of natives who escaped the angry Yangtze would perish unless Immediate succor was available The brunt of the American relief efforts is expected to fall on the Yangtze patrol force of the Asiatic fleet This unit Is composed of seven gunboats especially constructed for work on the river Rear Admiral Yancey Williams Is In command and his flagship the Luzon and the Guam are at Hankow Other vessels are cruising near-by waters while some are still at Shanghai but will sail for Hankow as soon as possible Help Limited Naval relief work would be limited American officers
