There was one muffled blast as she took her death plunge. I swallowed large quantities of oily scum and water before I bobbed to the surface. The water all around was dotted with Die heads of hundreds of sailors. Several sailors had succeeded in getting off a small motorboat Trying to splash toward it, I went under again. My lungs felt as if they were bursting, but I came up and a sailor helped me aboard the boat. But a score of others had the same idea. The boat's stern sec tion rapidly filled with water as the weight of more and more men pushed it down. Motorboat Upset Finally the motorboat tipped over, hurling us all into the sea. I managed to reach the boat and pull myself into the front cockpit again. Then the boat sank. With a lone jailor I hung to the tip-most point of the bow until it slipped beneath. he waves. I even hung on until it pulled ms under and I got anoth er large dose of oil and water. I strained every muscle to force my head above the surface. From beneath the waves a pair of hands reached up and pawed et my shoulders, then slipped I away. , I collided with a small float ing spar. Desperately I tried and succeeded in tucking it un der my left arm. still carefully holding up the lifebelt with my right Shouts In Dark I joined with scores of others in crying for help, hoping in the pitch darkness to attract the at tention of the destroyers. No one had a flashlight so it was difficult for the rescue ships tc find us. At that moment I saw a huge black silhouette of a destroyer about 75 yards ahead. Help. I'm drowning, gasped a sailor in the water near me. 'Keep going," I called weak ly. "Look, there's a destroyer ahead." That seemed to give him new energy. He swam toward the destroyer. I tried, too, but couldn't get closer. The waves seemed to carry me farther away as I screamed for help. A big wave swamped me again with a mouthful of oil. Then, as if miraculously, anoth er wave pushed me forward al most directly under the propel lers of the destroyer Griffin. Strength Gone I called for help until my throat felt burned out. Sudden ly a long, oily rope was flung over the side. I grasped it, but there-was no strength left in my hands. 'Hang on," an officer on the ship shouted. "We'll" pull you up." Can t, I called as the rope slipped from my fingers. "Try to get a little forward." the officer shouted. "We are putting over a rope ladder." bomehow I managed to propel myself forward and hang onto the ladder, safe, but so spent that I couldn't pull myself up even the fifst rung unaided. Stepped on Head At that moment a life raft drifted against the destroyer's side. It repeatedly banged my head against the warship and I cried out time and again: "Stop it You're killing me." Sailors on the raft grasped the rope ladder and clambered up safely while I fought desperate ly to keep from drowning. Sev eral stepped upon my head, push ing me down into the water. Only half conscious, I hooked my right arm through one rung of the ladder, which helped to keep my head above water occa sionally, and again I called out for help. A young British sailor aboard the raft saved my life. "I'll help you," he shouted. "Get this rope under your arms." He passed a thick, heavy rope under my arms, tied it and flung the end to the quarter-deck of the destroyer. Three sailors slowly pulled me out of the oily mass and flop ped me flat on the quarter-deck like a limp wet fish, completely covered with thick oily scum. "This fellow's an American," I dimly heard someone say as they read the words "American naval correspondent" on the sleeve of my oil-soaked coat while pressing the water from my lungs. They cut off all my clothes and carried me to the mess deck below, where nearly 100 other survivors were getting medical attention. The ship's doctor gave me a counter-shock injection and for EX IT Mnjor General Charles H.

Still, the fact remains that Napoleon sealed his own doom when he disregarded the urgent I advice of his generals and pushed on in naste to Moscow instead of stopping and organizing his supply lines and otherwise mak ing preparations for possible trouble. Up to that time, throughout his amazing career, he had held the offensive. From that mo ment on, he LOST THE OFFEN SIVE. Never again did he hold the fate of Europe unquestion ably in his hands. Less than two years later, he was in exile at Elba. CPEED and daring even reck- lessness are all right when they succeed.

In addition to the survivors rescued by the Griffin, another destroyer, the Hotspur, picked up 75. The Galatea's normal complement was 580 men. Her captain, E, W. B. Sim, whose family resides at Syosset, Long Island, N. Y., was among the missing. Returning to Alexandria, I walked ashore with the help of a naval officer, cleaned off the oil and went to bed for several days, recovering from severe shock and numerous bruises. 7oRtllevt eft Afbrry !
