Some of these boats may go directly to Tokyo, on the inland Sea of Japan, as rail communication between Yokohama and Tokyo has been destroyed, it Is understood. Coolidge Pleads for Aid. President Calvin Coolidge Monday afternoon Issued the following proclamation to the American people: "To the People of the United States: "An overwhelming disaster has overtaken the people ol the friendly nation of Japan. While its extent has not yet been officially reported, enough Is known to justify the statement that the cities of Tokyo and Yokohama and surrounding towns and villages have been largely if not completely destroyed by earthquake, flre and flood, with a resultant appalling loss of life and destitution and distress, requiring measures of urgent relief. "Such assistance as is within the means of the executive department of the government will be rendered; but, realizing the great suffering which now needs relief and will need relief for days to come, I am prompted to appeal urgently to the American people, whose sympathies have always been so comprehensive, to contribute in aiding the unfortunate and in giving relief to the people of Japan. "In orcfer that the utmost co-ordination and effectiveness In the administration of relief funds can be obtained, I recommend that all contributions, clearly designated, be sent to the chairman of the American International Bed Cross at Washington or to any of the local Bed Cross chapters for transmission to Japan." Commander of Italian Destroyer jjjrte' muda Gives Greeks Half an HOfr In Which to 8iirrender the Fort. Paris; Sept 1.--The Italians hati bombarded the fortress and school at Corfu. An Italian destroyer, the Premuda, arrived at the island first under a white flag. The commander went ashore and demanded the surrender of the Greek garrison. The commander of the ancient obsolete fortress refused. Under a half hour's armistice the Italian naval officer rejoined his ship. Other ships came in and the bombardment began. A few shells from the Italian warships silenced the old, Inefficient artillery in the fort and permitted the landing party to disembark practically without casualties and to seize the strategic points of the postofflce and official buildings, after which they captured the fortifications and imprisoned the Greek garrison. Airplanes flying over the town and harbor aided through observation and bombing. There were no Greek airplanes. The occupation of the fortress was effected by a small detachment of cruisers, according to a communique issued in Rome. About fifteen civilians were killed. The main parts of the fleet are operating in the Aegean Islands and at Athens. The police school at Corfu was destroyed by flames after the bombardment. A proclamation was made to the people of the island that the Italian occupation Is purely pacific and there are no hostile intentions, admonishing the people not to resist. Between 25,000 and 30,000 refugees were lodged on Corfu on American Near East relief doles after the Greek and Americans were driven from Asia Minor by the Turks. Grave fear is felt here that the hungry refugees may precipitate the further anger of the Italians. The population of the island is swollen now to about 00,000 by the refugees. DR. EDGAR J.
