 There was apparently confusion of lights and signals as the two boats were proceeding along al a good pace. the Republic outbound and the Sentinel inbound with 14,O00 pounds of halibut on board.
 The larger boat crashed into the smaller and the latter. with a big hole pierced in her hull, immediate ly began to sink. The Republic how 10 and took the crew off the Senti- mel at once but not before the i'm pact had thrown two of them int the water. Then the Republic put a line on the sinking vessel and towed her to shore where she was beached By this time the Sentinel was al- most sunk being buoyed up only by her oil tanks.
 This morning preparations were being made to salvage the sunken boat
 The Republic herself had her for foot bent but otherwise appears to have sustained little damage.
 Captain Martin Hegge Was in command of the Republic and Capt L. P. Sutherland was in charge of the Sentinel.

 Admiral Eberle. chief of naval operations. testified that 'an in air force controlled by government department would be rontrary to the recog nized doctrine oi unity of efforts in battle and bring disaster to the national defense.
