HIGGINS Reps
Croft Critics

washington, Dec. IS. (UP)-An-
drew J. Higgins, whose landing
craft have carried American fight
ing men In every invasion Of the
war, charged today that bad hand
ling Of his boats was responsible for
heavy marine casualties during the
invasion OF Bloody Taraway."
Higgins told the United Press that
there had been criticism Of Higgins
boat performance by some unin-
formed officers and a national news
magazine" and asserted:
1.-THE boats could do the Job. They
lust weren't handled right. They've
got to be drive by someone who will
bang them into the shore at full
pseed, not coddle them lige an ad-
mirars launch"
Asked for comment on Higgins
charge, Secretary Of the Navy Frank
Knox told his press conference to-
day that he would not enter into q
controversy with the boat builder,
but he said the men who handle the
Higgins boats are magnif1cently
trained and have made an excel
lent record with them wherever
they have been used"
Higgins said he had offered to train
landing boat operators free Of
charge at his New Orleans ship
building plants, and hopes and Navy
will accept.
II design these craft and I build
them" he said. II think I know
better than anyone in the world
what they will do and how to do 1t
with them. If l can teach some OF
this to the men who run them I
think I can save some lives"
The rudy faced shipbuilder said
that for several days he has been
showing motion pictures Of Higgins
boat test runs to high officials in
the armed forces as conclusive
proof" that dad handling and not
versatility of his landing craft
was responsible for sea casualties In
the invasion of the Gilbert Island.
