BELGIAN MOTOR PILOT
MAKES DARING Run
THROUGH ENEMY WATERS

Amsterdam, Sept. Is. Correspond.
encep-The Belgian motor boat Scaldis,
recently ran the blockade from Ger
many, flying German admiral's flag;
and arrived safely in Holland with a
load of prominent Belgian refugees.
The incident has aroused much interest
along the whole length Of the Scircldt.
The Scaldis formerly belonged TO the
Belgian government and was confiscated
by the Germans, who fitted her luxur-
iously for use by the highest officers. A
Belgian pilot, JEFF" Van Dingen. was
given the post of captain because Of
his intimate knowledge of the river. He
frequently had the governor-general on
Hoard and from the mast there gener'
ally fioated an admiral's flag. for
which every guard on the river and
canals showed respect.
Jeff" early this month determined to
make a serious attempt to convey to
safety a group Of prominent Belgians
who were in danger of prosecution by
the Germans, and these men were so
weary Of the German regime that they
were willing to risk their lives TO escape.

the following Nc lday. He figured that
If he cruised northward on Sunday the
guards along the Scheldt would think
the encouragement was taking short
trip to the frontier. He started at noon,
hosting the admiral's flag.
The Belgian civilians were hidden be-
low deck, the captain and two assist
ants alone remaining above deck. They
passed the forts of st. Marie and Philip
de Paari and by Liefkenshoek and Doel,
their flag everywhere saluted ceremon-
iously by the soldiers. At Doel the
whole guard turned out.
Close to the frontier the motor stop
ped, gasoline being almost exhausted.
a German patrol boat approached, but
no assistance being asked it appar.
entity did not dare to come alongside a
boat flying the admiral's flag. BY a
friendly salute JEFF .ntignated that he
did not need assistance.
After some tinkering the motors were
made to work little longer, and the
tide aaso helped. Thus the vessel reach
ed Dutch waters, where it was visited
by the Dutch patrol and given enough
gasoline to get II to the nearest port.
where captain. and passengers were
warmly welcomed.
