I The Norman sank as she was
retnrning from Cow: Island with a
party of engineers here attending
the convention of the mid-south
association of engineers. She was
raoYing along" smoothly, accord
ing to BurriTors when she sudden
ly began rocking from ; side to
side. This conttsgjed for perhaps
live mlhute3 when she careened
far- over and failed to recover.
Three minutes later she had vir
tually gone from sight.
The scene of the disaster is 16
miles south, of Memphis opposite
fcoahona landing and 300 feet
' The steamer had on board
about fifty persons ' of these ap
proximately forty were huddled
n a little cabin on. the, shore of
the river near the scene of the
disaster. The place is isolated
and difficult to reach. Newspaper

r The steamer, according to sur
vivors first began i rocking; from
side to side, careening so that
persons oa board" were forced to
run from one side to the other
in. an effort to remain, on the
high side of the boat. Finally she
careened so far that she could not
recover. Survivors said, however,
that there was no panic. Tom Lea,
operating a motor' boat for the
Tennessee Construction company,
who happened to be passing the
Norman when she , turned over,
saved the lives of most of those
i escued. '4. ; - ---
W. -W. Deberard of Memphis,
told the Ascsociated Press but for
this fact virtually every person
on: . board would have- been
drowned. !
Few persons managed to swim
ashore. t " ,
There was no explosion when
the boat sank, the survivors said-
Jack Cothran, engineer, having
turned off the fuel ell under the

WASHINGTON, May 8. (By

CoolJdge, opening the national or
atorical contest with an address
here tonight, declared that the
United . States has, a- "weighty re
sponsibility,, not , only for main
taining its own welfare, liberties
and power, but for. the utmost pos
sible contribution toward organiz
ing the nations, and peoples in the
aspirations- and ways of" peace."
"Here is.a field for institution
al development' to , which the
thoughts of men and women every
where are ,. turned : as - they never
were before," he-stated. 'IThough
their scale is . greater, yet, the
problems In this realm of world
organization are , essentially the
tne as, tho3e to which mankind
has been, addressing itself from
the beginning of society. -j
"These, are the problems of as
suring justice- alike to the weak
and the strong; of assuring peace
with ' honor, of enthroning con
science In places of Authority too
long usurped by mers force. The
same humanity that has been able
to erect the rule ot lav and lib
erty on the scale of great! nations
and mighty federations i will - at
last fled" Institutions by which to
place; International relations- upon
the same sure foundations."
:; Recall that he had dellveredf
an ad in 3 when a similar contest
was-held here a year ago, the pres
ident reminded his hearers thai
he had observed then that, "there
never was. a time when our insti
