gers and crew of the sunken Italian
liner Principessa Mafalda went down
with the vessel was expressed by sur
vivors who reached here despite re-
ports from other sources that only a
handful of the more than 1000 aboard
were lost.
Tales of horror-filled night were
told by the first of the victims to
reach this port aboard the French
steamer Mosella, one of the half dozen
ships that answered the Mafalda's dis
tress call and saved approximately 100
persons from drowning. The Mosella
had no information as to the number
rescued by other vessels, understood
to include all but 6S of those who
were aboard the Inflated liner.
Despite warmth Of water and calm
ness of sea four of those rescued by
the Mosella died from exposure and
exhaustion before reaching port and
survivors expressed the belief that
many others of the rescued would not
live. They said it would not be sur
prising to them If the final death toll
amounted to between 600 and 800 per-
sons. Some of them insisted that a
number of victims were devoured by
sharks as they struggled in the wa

Captain Privat of the Mosella said he

he knew about it was that he heard
Captain Gull giving orders on the
bridge of the sinking vessel short
time before it foundered.
Captain Privat said "the scenes
could not have been more horrible
than they were, especially the scream
ing in the midst of wind and darkness
from women and children helpless in

The disaster was due, according to
Captain Privat, to the loss Of pro-

A NAVAL RACE
Big Navy Congressman
Jubilant; Boosts Tariff

WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.-Presi-

phia audience at the Union League
Club to support a policy of naval ex-

of the fight for big cruiser and sub

spokesman in congress declared to-
day.
The presidents advice was the di-
rect climax of campaign of pro-
paganda, starting with the holding of
the Geneva Naval Arms Limitation
Conference, which was meant to fail,
and thus throw the onus of naval
race on foreign nations.
"Big navy" forces hailed with de-
light his statement that 1--WE shall
round out our navy with more SUBJ
marines and more cruisers, and priv
ate ownership should provide it with
an auxiliary merchant marine of fast
cargo boats"
"That is splendid" said Rep. Brit
ten (R) of Illinois, a leader in the
house fight for a stronger navy,
This assures adoption of cruiser
building program"
Coolidge in his speech reaffirmed
his belief in the growing prosperity
of the United States, and calmly over
looked all evidence of unemployment
low wages, and increasing length OF
work day, as we'll as decrease of car
loadings and stock market panics.
