And when congress met this afternoon there were sharp repercussions on the floor of the house and senate. Congressman Luther Johnson of Texas declared: Those fellows have gone far enough. Congressman Coffee of Wash- jngton called for an immediate embargo of American materials to Japan. And House Democrat jc Loader MacCormick said: "The bombing was an act of hostility, clearly showing that Japan is a front for Hitler in Ris aggressive moves against the United States. There is no question that the act was deliberate." Acting secretary of state Sumner Welles- - announced that the representations had been made but hd declined to describe them as a protest. Welles pointed out that the gunboat Tutuila has been anchored in a safety zone, on the far side of the river away from Chungking proper. The acting secretary also said the American embassy on the same side of the river was a target for Japanese bombs. However, the navy depart ment says the damage to the Tutuila was only superficial1 and there were no casualties.
