Passengers On Board
Watch Firing
A description of a practice shoot at sea by the six inch gun and three Inch anti-aircraft gun on the stern of a British lner, during the voyage from Manila was given by passengers when they arrived here yesterday.
"In order not to alarm passengers, who might think an actual attack by submarine was taking place, we were notified the night before the practice that shooting would take place, passengers said.
A target consisting of two large tea chests was dropped overboard and two shots were fired at it at about 8 a.m.
The first shot from the six inch gun aft, fred at a range of about 3,000 yards sent up a spout of water nearly 50 feet high close to the target. The second shot fel! wider of the target, but as we understood it was controlled fire, accuracy of the shooting could not be judged even

Japan, however, has no intention trompie the rights and interests of third Powers in China nor has she any desire to suppress the legitimate activities of third-Power nationals in China. The Government, therefore, is ready to accept those American requests on Open Door and Equal Opportunity which are not calculated to obstruct the new order Asia.
