(In Berlin, however. German authorities declared "a German mine could not have been re sponsible'' for the sinking of the Simon Bolivar.) The Simon Bolivar disaster possibly was the worst to civil ian shipping since the war start ed. Unless the death list of 140 i, reduced in the final survey, it will surpass the toll of 112 per sons lost in the sinking of the British liner Athenia Sept. 3. 1 Some of the 260 survivors of the Netherlands liner told of harrowing experiences between the time two explosions rocked the ship and she settled in water so shallow her funnels showed. "It was just like hell," a young Netherlander said. "The first ex plosion blew me down three decks. I saw people blasted dead, just like knocking down ninepins." One survivor, a middle-aged man with a battered nose, said some passengers were smothered in their cabins when oil pipes burst, and others, unable to get into boats, "slid or jumped into the water." "Some others, though, just stayed." added a barefoot, shirt less British bank clerk. "They just stood on deck and watched us go. Maybe they didn t get off." PortUi PonlsraJ. Or.. Sot. 30.

Saturday morning the lieuten ants left Seattle by Mainliner for Portland but the plane again was fogged out of the Oregon metropolis and the first thing the travellers knew they were yetting off the plane in Med ford. it was lunch time and so the officers were given an ap petizing meal at the Hotel Med ford. After feasting, they board ed another northbound plane and got to their appointment in Portland about 3 p. m., just a trifle late.
