INGHAM ING-HAM AT THE MOUTH OF THE YANGTZE, Sept. 22, (UJ) The first United States naval convoy to approach the China coast in nearly four years an-shored an-shored at the Yangtze river delta today, awaiting a swift run up stream at dawn tomorrow. The convoy will re-establish the Shanghai naval base and deliver de-liver supplies to the U. S. and Chinese armies nearby. A long column of ships, led by the cutter Ingham under the flag of Rear 'Adm. Elliott Buckmas-ter, Buckmas-ter, moved gingerly this morning through the mine-swept Bonharo Straits and past Saddle and Parker islands. Hundreds of Chinese fishermen aboard junks lining our passage waved and smiled at us as we sailed by. Although our convoy moves in peace, the last few days have been almost as rugged as any wartime experience. We fled Okinawa before rising winds, from one of the year's fiercest j typhoons. For 48 hours, our 1 heavily-laden ships bucked and rolled amidst mountainous waves. Our mission is really three-', fold. First is the delivery of sup-; plies and personnel of a naval advance unit under Cmdr. John' H. Hentz, Haverford, Pa. Second! is the re-establishment of the famed Yangtze patrol with force? under Rear Adm. Joy who moved up to Shanghai today aboard thej cruiser Nashville. Last is the! rescue of American prisoners ofj war and civilian internees from j Shanghai camps.
