LOST CLIPPER
CONTINUATION OF HOPELESS SEARCH POSSIBLE FOUL PLAY CONSIDERED. PASSENGER TAKING MONEY TO CHINA. By Telegraph—Press Association. Copyright. MANILA, July 31. The search for the wreckage of the missing Pan-American Airways Hawaii Clipper continued today without success. The oil spot found by the transport vessel Meigs is breaking up and it is unlikely that it can be followed much longer. An unofficial report states that naval craft expect to be called in from the search tomorrow night. Meanwhile an investigation has begun of a report that Wah Sung Choy, restaurant keeper, Jersey City, who was a passenger in the Clipper, carried a large sum of money ostensibly for the Chinese Government. The report mentions the possibility that the destruction of the plane was caused by foul play over Choy’s errand.
