Navy inquiry blames Delphy officers in destroyer disaster
An official board of inquiry cites three officers aboard the Delphy for culpable inefficiency and negligence after nine destroyers were wrecked off Point Honda, California, on September 8. Squadron commander Captain Edward H. Watson, Delphy’s commanding officer Lieut Commander Donald T. Hunter, and Navigating Officer Lieut Lawrence F. Blodgett face court martial. The report finds no exculpating circumstances for the captain of the Delphy and endorses holding division commanders partly responsible. Independence celebration coverage follows.

Ifugao tribesmen in the Philippines are shifting from hostility to trade with lowland settlers. Deputy Governor Dosser, after months of peace work, moved 150 Ifugaos to exchange rice, vegetables and baskets at Duluog near Isabela for pigs and chickens.
