(AP) Alfred Duff Cooper, former first lord of the admiralty once called a "war mon ger" by Adolf Hitler, sailed today for a lecture tour in the United States. 6 iXifttt tvl 85c $1.60 cjr irt LEGION DISCUSSES ARMISTICE FIESTA SAY PASSENGERS Storm and Fear of Subma rines Tortured War Ref ugees in Atlantic Passage Ship Searched Daily NFW YORK. Oct. 13. (AP)-A ter rific three-day storm and an ever flowing stream of sinister rumors tor tured 788 Americans 877 passengers and 311 crewmen who reached New York last night on the liner Iroquois the ship which the German ad miralty warned would be sunk, sup posedly by sn allied belligerent. Abla7 with llgms, the 13-year-old vessel dropped anchor to the cheers of some 2000 who bnd gathered to greet her. A giant spotlight played on a large American flag at her stern. Other powerful lights were directed on two other flags 13 by 20 feet painted on her sides. Ship of Horrors Mrs. Mary Stleelman of Baltimore, one of the passengers, declared "if ever there were a ship of horrors, this was It. The storm was so bad that some of the officers said they ex pected the top of the boat to blow off. Everyone was ill. Then, they started senrchlug our baggage and wouldn't say what for. "They made us go into the holds- dark, dirty holds to identify our trunks. Some of us were so sick we couldn't go. When we told them we couldn't go, they told us they would smash our trunks open." Several passengers agreed the most frightening of the speculations aboard ship was that a time bomb had been secreted somewhere. Even two United States destroyers which met the 394-foot ship Monday to form a convoy on orders of the White House caused alarm at first, some passengers rushing to the con clusion that they were hostlla vessels. Six Days' Suspense , The muster of the Iroquois, Cap tain E. A. Chelton, said he was ad vised by Washington last Thursday of an extraordinary message from Berlin which warned that the ship would be sunk near the American coast under circumstances similar to those surrounding the destruction of the British liner Athenla. The Germans have contended the British, not they, were responsible for that disaster. The warning seemed Incredible, the captain said, "but I was told I had to believe it until It was proved other wise." That meant six days of awful sus pense. "The first thing I did," he said, "was to call the heads of the ship) departments together and tell them about it, Instructing them at the same time not to speak to the pas sengers about it. "Then I had the ship searched ior radios (in case someone aboard might be signaling maraudlne craft.) We took off radio antennae and re moved tubes from several short-wave seta the crew had. The passengers did not have radios, "Of course the crew knew, and the passengers too. that there was some thing up, but they didn't know what. "On Sunday morning when the cutter came up, I told the passengers part or what had happened. I said I had information there would be other ships sunk as was the Athenla, but I didn't mention the Iroquois. The next day two U. S. destroyers came up, and then I gathered the passengers in tha lounge and an. nounced specifically what my In formation was. They all cheered. "I had the ship searched every day until we got here." the captain said, "but found absolutely nothing." Once Allowed BEDFORD. Mass.

Oct. 12 F) The American housewife saved three quarters of one per cent on her grocery budget last week as food prices continued to react from the sudden rim at the start of the war. Secretary Perkins reported the av erage retail decline today as shown by the bureau of labor statistics sur vey for the week ending Oct. 10. "Prices of most of the 15 staple foods were either unchanged or low er." nhe said. "Some decreased by as much as 11 per cent." Lard prices declined sharply, Miss Perkins said, averaging four or five per cent less than the previous week, but they were still between 15 and 30 per cent above August figures In most cities. Miss Pork Ins reported prices of pork chops, bacon, navy beans, and sugar moved do n ward fairly con sistently, decreasing generally by from two to five per cent. Navy beans, however, were still 15 to 40 per cent above the August 15 prices. Pork chops were at or below the August level In nine of 12 principal cities.
