SAN PEDRO, Calf. September IA
Abandoned by her passengers and
crew and battered by heavy seas. the
Panama mail liner Colombia today lay
on the rocky reef Of Santa Marguerite
Island, $40 miles south of here of the
Lower California coast.
All of the 100 passengers and crew
Of 100 were aboard the United Fruit
Co.'S liner La Perla, due to arrive at
Los Angeles Harbor Wednesday. Their
rescue In the early hours of yester-
day morning was related today In radio
messages which paid tribute to the
heroism Of the officers, crew and man
passengers.
Berth E. Moisant, passenger from
E Salvador, radioed a description of
the scene on the darkened decks of the
Colombia while passengers prepared to
take to the 1ifeboats. It said:
Panic Is Averted
s~There was no panic. no hyster1a
TO be noted. This was averted by
common sense on the part Of the off,
GERS and by precise and stern orders
at the same time. Never has 1t been
our lot to see men show a finer ex-
ample Of GOODNESS, and this applies to
both officers and men,
The Wrecking of the Colombia few
minutes before midnight Saturday was
the third accident in which she had
figured in the last seven years.
Orders to take to the lifeboats were
given by the captain shortly after the
ship hit the reef. Within three hours
the San Mateo, another United Fruit
liner. was at the scene in response to
the Colombia's S o S appeal.
The eight lifeboats of the Colombia
were picked up by the San Mateo with
their human cargoes and taken aboard.
Transshipped to La Perla.
Late last night the passengers and
crew were transshipped to La Perla,
which was proceeding northward when
it intercepted the S o call The San
Mateo was proceeding southwark to
Central American ports. whereas the
Colombia was heading northward
bound from New York to California.
Last June the Colombia went aground
of Staten Island, N. Y. She was taken
off without loss of life and only small
damage to her hull. She ran aground
Ii 1924 off Costa Rica and was salvaged
without loss of life.
Salvage tugs were en- route to the side
OF the Colombia today but messages re-
ceived from Capt. Theodore K Oaks,
veteran skipper Of the Colombia, indi-
Gated the vessel was doomed.

dent Hoover, when an inaugural con-
cert was. given under the auspices of
the Inaugural Committee.
