ON SOS
URGED
international News Service

LONDON. Oct. 26.-Charging that
the SOS international call sign for
shipping in distress is nowadays
being greatly misused. several
prominent British shipping men are
urging the imposition of new regu-
lations with a view to checking the
evil"
The matter has been brought to
a head by the recent case of the
Dutch freighter. velaeno. which
when west of Newfoundland sent
out an SOS call. After several large
liners had altered their course to
proceed to her assistance and one
had actually reached her. she noti.
fled them that their presence was
not needed.
It is argued that 1t costs between
SO 900 and 5000 to send large
ocean liner off her course, for apart
from the extra meals required by
all on board and additional fuel
consumed tides are sometimes lest.
Too Many Calls
Far too many sos calls are
sent out, I'm my opinion" Capt. Sir
Arthur Rostron, commodore Of the
Cunard line. told International News
Service. Unfortunately / do not
think there is any method of over
coming this and do not think the
responsible authorities would care
to make any hard and fast rule.
when a ship is in distress it is
hard to say she must not send out
an sos, for only the man on the
spot is in a position to Judge the
danger. Failure to act at once
in emergency may mean disaster.
81 think. however. it would be
better for vessels calling for assist
ance to state the extent Of their
damage, so that the commanders OF
other vessels could gauge their
plight.
Airmen on Own Risk
with regard to answering 20 s
calls sent out by airmen who are
forced to descend into the Atlantic,
that is quite a different matter. =
airmen, more often than not, are
to cross the ocean for
t. = glorification, and while | ad-
mire them they must understand
that ships cannot go securing the
Atlantic in search of them If they
fail
Means will have to be found for
dealing with these calls, such as the
aviators guaranteeing to pay COM
pensation to the ship or ships an
swering them and going to their
rescue"
