SUB ATTACKERS SUNK, SHIP SURVIVORS SAY

LONDON, Aug. 8 (U. P.).—Survivors from the British motorship Accra, which sank off the Irish Coast on July 25, related today that the vessel had been torpedoed by two submarines, both of which were sunk by British Warships. The Accra, a 9337-ton ship, was leading a convoy at the time of the attack. About 450 survivors landed at a northwest port and reported that eight passengers and nine crew members were missing. They said that one of the ship's lifeboats had capsized, and one raft was overturned by the Accra’s propellors as she went down.

U, S.-SOVIET SOVIET TRADE RELATIONS EASED

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8 (U. P.).— Soviet-American economic relations, | erratic since the Russo-Finnish war, appeared to be moving toward smoother channels today. Indications of this trend came with a rush within a few hours after both Governments had ini- | tialed a pact continuing a trade agreement for the fourth consecu- | tive year. Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles, in a formal statement, said he was gratified at renewal of the] treaty and expressed hope that! commercial relations would develop during the coming year. Soviet Ambassador Constantine | Oumansky called again on Mr.! Welles and held one of the longest | conferences on record with the] U. S. official. His only comment was that economic matters had occupied their attention.

HONG KONG BARRED TO JAPANESE SHIPS

HONG KONG, Aug. 8 (U. P.).— British authorities refused entry into Hong Kong port today of the Japanese steamships Kaiju Maru and Shirogani Maru as the wesult of a dispute over navigation in the Pearl River leading to Canton. Japanese had detained a British steamship at Canton after the failure of negotiations to open the river. The Japanese had demanded the right to station inspectors along the Hong Kong border, asserting that supplies still were crossing it into Chinese térritory. The British steamship was released later but British authorities threatened Tuesday to refuse entry to Japanese ships until the dispute had been settled.
