"Mr. Garner of Texas

The Times has received a copy
of Mr.. Garner of Texas by
Marquis James, and in looking
through it learned much OF
the vice-presidemt that other
wise we would have never learn
ca because Texas Jack Garner
has been somewhat of a mystery
man in that he has little to say.
The career of Mr.. Garner as
urfolded by Mr.. James is an
epic OF, American opportunity.
The American boy who aspircs
to political fame should read
Marquis James book and watch
the boy Garner begin and stel
by step rise to his present high
Office and he growth of his skill
as a politician from nil to the
adroit skillfulness that to-day
places him in the top llight Of
leaders of America.

newspaperman said-Mr. Crockett
raced to private telephone set up
by the Associated Press at the Navy

Only after giving full details to
the Boston bureau would he consent
to visit hospital.
In his first formal statement since
the sinking of the Squalus Tuesday,
Rear Admiral c. w. Cole, comman-
dant of the Portsmouth Navy Yard
and director of rescue and salvage
operations, voiced his appreciation"
tonight of efforts" of the press.
The admirals statement follows:
There is little to add to the in
formation already disseminated.
Realizing the tremendous interest of
our people in their Navy and the
general humanitarian temper of the
Nation, have endeavored to keep
the press informed Of every event
as it occurred.
"The press has co-operated mag
nificently and I know our people
join with us in appreciation of their
efforts.
THE rescue operations have been
completed and we are now devoting
our energies to raising the stricken
ship and returning her to her place
in our line of defense. We hope to
be successful.

at 100 feet.
Then air would be pumped into
the ballast tanks in the stern until
it, too, reached the surface.
Optional Course.
An optional course, the Navy Off
GERS explained, would be to tow the
Squalus into shallower water before
bringing 1t all the way to the sur
face. This would permit divers to
work under less pressure in the
event of slip that might send
the submarine down again.
While the divers worked at the
scene Of the sinking IS miles of
shore, most of the 80 survivors,
brought up by an escape bell We'd
nesday, were ready for new duty.
Bronchial ailments bothered one or
two. but doctors said they would
be out Of the hospital at the navy
yard in the near future.
Although some relatives of the
men who lost their lives in the dis
aster came to the yard to claim
their bodies, officers planned to
wait until the Squalus was brought
to the surface and towed to dry
dock before removing the tragic
cargo.
In nearby Dover sat a weeping
mill worker, pretty Ruth Desautel.
who was to have been married this
afternoon to Sherman Shirley of
Little Rock, Ark, torpedoman on
the Squalus. In her heart she bore
no ill-will to Lloyd B. Maness of
Greensboro, N. c., who was to have
been the best man and who saved
the 81 other men by slamming shut
a door on the 26 as water rose in
the ship.
What he did was perfectly right, /"
said Miss Desautel. Il hold moth
ing against him and expect him to
come to see me when it is all over /"
The Naval Relief Association to-
day announced receipt of $4,000
from Submarine Squadron 4 at
Honolulu to aid the needy in the
submarine Squalus disaster. Preyi-
Gus contributions of $500 came from
submarine officers and crews at
Mare Island, Calf, and New Lon

old when he took over the prime
minister's post on May %, 1887, in
succession to Stanley Baldwin, who
went to the House of Lords as Earl

In describing his complete agree

Chamberlain said: Il do not want

Yet startling have been some Of

BOSTON, May 27.-There were
risks aplenty taken by the men who
performed the remarkable rescue of
the 80 survivors of the submarine
Squalus-and newspapermen at the
scene assumed their share, also.
Today the details of the news
scoop by E. Harry Crockett of Bos-
ton, an Associated Press staff man,
in reporting that 26 men had died
aboard the Squalus were revealed.
Returned to the Boston bureau
Of the Associated Press after four
days and nights on the job, Mr..
Crockett told his story
Before dawn the night after the
Squalus sank, Mr.. Crockett put out
from Portsmouth in 30-foot open
lobster boat against high seas. With
him were three staff men from the
Boston Globe, Transcript and Post,
all members of the Associated Press.
At daylight the !5-mile journey
over open ocean was completed
Drawing as close as the high seas
would allow to one of the key boats
in the rescue fleet, Mr.. Crockett
used a megaphone to call a question
to responsible officer:
How many are dead down be-
low?"
The call came back that mes
sages tapped out on the hull of the
sunken submarine reported 26 men
had been trapped in the flooded
after compartments and probably
were dead. A few minutes later
one Of the four newspapermen
boarded the rescue craft and veri-
fed the shouted information.
The reporters sped back to Ports
mouth. The seas were so high that
Mr.. Crockett was thrown from his
place and his right hand slashed to
the bone on big lobsterman's hook
All four were so seasick they could

Like any vacationing man, the
King gave his barber, razor and
face 3 rest, accumulating q stubbly
bristle. He and his wife climbed
none-too-d -docile Tunnel Mountain,
then raced over to have q look at
Norquay Mountain, where the fa-
nous ski slide stands naked to the
spring wind now. They stopped to-
watch q mule deer and to photo

was proudest Of was that he stalked
and snapped picture Of q grouse

roadway.
Missed Windsor's Ranch.
The King and Queen covered the
region pretty we'll in their series
Of sprints. About the only thing
they missed in the neighborhood
was look at the "E. P. Ranch"
which is still owned by the Duke
Of Windsor, the Kings elder brother.
The ranch, about 100 miles from
here, Is a big-business stock out
At. It hasn't been visited by the
owner in almost IA years.
The climb up the mountain was,
in more ways than one, the high
point of the day. The King ven-
tured it dressed in gray flannel
trousers and a very looking
gray checked jacket. Under that
was sweater and under that an
open-neck shirt. He was crowned
with gray felt flip-brimmed hat
and wore the brim tipped down.
The Queen was disguised as a
vagabond with a vagabond hat. She
wore pumpkin yellow sports cos

gray stockings and Scottish walk
ing shoes of gray suede.

AS the royal procession rolled
down the mountain road afterward,
l0-year-old Barbara Wakely, who
had been out collecting lady slip
pers on a field study session with
school chums and botany teacher,
tossed bouquet into the Queens
car and the Queen looked i'm
mensely startled and little Barbara,
conscience-stricken, was about to
burst into tears, but the Queen
picked the bouquet from the floor
OF the car, turned. rose half out of
her seat and waved the flowers gaily
at her tiny subject. Barbara is the
most excited little girl on the con-
tlnent at the moment.

The reaction of official Soviet
quarters to the reported terms was

hesitated to predict what Stains
answer would be- British circles
here, however. were optimistic.
The conversation of British and
French ENJOYS in the Kremlin was
short and said to have been cordial.
