suite S jprme Court. ' brt C. Bonner (D-N.C.) eomes Stockholm's ramming of the An-
drea Doria last Wednesday night
already have found space on
Scandinavian Airline's planes
leaving by the end of the week.
Thirty were able to fly to Europe
last Friday shortly after they dis
embarked from the Stockholm.
Scores of others have made
bookings on various trans-Atlantic
airlines.
Crews Double Up
A spokesman for the line said
165 Stockholm passengers will
leave New York aboard the Ber
gensfjord Wednesday and 140
have been allotted space aboard
the Kungsholm sailing Friday.
Accomodations of extra passen
gers was made possible by the
crews of both ships who volun
teered to double up so crew
quarters could be used for the :
survivors.
Bookings on the ships of other
lines were so heavv that few
passengers from the Stockholm
were able to find space. Two
lucky passengers were able to
sail on the United States liner
America within a few hours af
ter the Stockholm's return here
last Friday. One person found a
berth on the Mauretania on Sat
urday. Repair Work Begun
The line has provided S50 for
each adult passenger and S25 for
each child to tide them over
until Friday. It kept its offices
open all week end and has as
signed representatives to the
Governor Clinton hotel to take
care of passengers needs and
help them find transportation
abroad.
The next big problem of
Swedish-American Line authori
ties is to find alternate passage
for passengers scheduled to re
turn from Scandinavia on the
Stockholm in August and Sep
tember." Repair work on the liner's ob
literated prow already has be
gun at the Bethlehem Steel Co.'s
dry dock in Brooklyn but no es
timate of when the ship will be
back in service has been made
yet. It will probably be months,
maritime experts said.

A Democrat active in the pro
Stevenson effort attributed the
poor showing to the "many dis
tractions." of the final week of
Congress and to the fact that
many Democrats come from
states with their, own favorite
son candidates.
Among these states are Texas.
