GERMAN PASSENGERS SEAMEN VOYAGERS (Reed. Feb. 20, 9 a.m.) SAN PEDRO, Feb. 18. Thirty German officers and seamen from the Standard Oil tanker, Harry Gseidel, arrived from Valparaiso aboard the Japanese liner Heiyo Maru. They are expected to continue to Kobe to-morrow.
It is reliably stated that 19 Germans from a German freighter taking refuge on the west coast are also aboard.
United States naval circles are surprised in view of the undertaking by Japanese liners not to transport Germans of military age.
