dropping draWbridges across our
sides and, throwing tear gas
bombs to clear the way, they
stOrmed across to board our
vessel. The scene was that of an
inferno.
"The British were wearing gas
masks and they were armed with
gas guns, gas grenades, pistols
and wooden clubs tipped with steel
bands. They rushed the bridge
and without warning fired two
shots at the helmsmen. They shot
one boy and dubbed another
(Walter Bernstein, the American
crew member who later died from
his wounds.) Some of the sailors
smashed open sea door, one of
them leaped through it and with
out warning fired his pistol into
a group of devout Jews, members
of the Mizrachi faction, who were
deep in prayer at the time. His
shots hit two children.
Everywhere about me were
people with smashed heads and
hands. When the tear gas first
touches you it seems like a scar
ing flame is piercing the skin.
"After the first attack, our
water system was destroyed. In
the galley I found a kettle of
coffee still warm. We added milk
and used this to battle our tear
gassed eyes.
I'm a matter of seconds our hos
pital was filled with blOOd-sOaked
people. l went up to the bridge
where some of the British had al
ready taken control, but to no avail,
because when our men in the en-
CINE room heard British accents
shouting orders they refused to
obey, and we steered by an auxiI-
larry steering gear which had been
placed aft.
ut was nightmare of smash
ings, for during all this time the
British cruisers were repeatedly
ramming us. They would pull
away, converge on us until they
were parallel to us and then
smash us again. They did this
seven times and each time it SEEM
ed as though the ship was about to
break into thousand pieces, with
bulkheads caving in, bed tiers be-
low decks splintering and people
screaming in panic when they
found they were unable to move.
All this time we were shipping
huge quantities of water.
Had the British rammed us an
eighth time, the ExOdus-1947
and its 1900 passengers would be
at the bottom of the Mediter-
ranean today.
During all this, one of our boys
suddenly rushed up to me, shout
ing, give captured four. limeys-
what'H I do?" I found the four
beaten and ordered them into my
fo'castle where I gave them some
cognac and cigarettes and told
told them to be silent. One was
an officer who removed his epau-
lettes.
"The battle continued, with our
boys hurting potatoes, tin cans,
anything that came to hand, at the
British. We were singing all the
time at the top of our voices.
But, learning that one of our boys
was dying, and in order to save
lives, we agreed to allow the
British to take over our ship, on
condition that navigation would
remain in our hands. The officer |
in my cabin agreed to our terms, |
and SO we made our way to

8 Light Co.
=,
WHATS WRONG WITH YOUR
WlRlNG?"

Do you have enough lights?
Lack of light causes many home
accidents. Lights in Railways, stair
ways, closets and multiple controll-
ed lights in the living room were
often omitted in former years. In
dividual lights over working spaces
and for reading and sewing are
needed to avoid eyestrain.
Do you have enough outlets?
You should have enough outlets
to be able to plug in lamps, radios,
and small table appliances in your
living room no matter how you
furnish or rearrange it.
In your kitchen, you need more
outlets than in any other room in
the house. All the labor-saving
electrical appliances which the cleo
trical industry has made available
to the public in the last few years
are useless without properly locat-
ed convenience outlets.
Is it e,sy to fird the switch in
every rcc-f!
Seine years ago, many houses
were wired With the switches built
directly into the ceiling and wall
fixtures. Very often, when enter
ing the room in the dark, it took
considerable fumbling to find the
pull-chain to turn on the light.
Many an accident has occurred
from falling over chairs or chill
dren's toys because switches were
not installed near the entrances
of the room. The modern home
should have switches so arranged
that the lights can be turned on
or off from each entrance so that
there is a path of light" all
through the home.
Do You have extension cords strewn
all over your home?
The use of extension cords for
other than temporary extensions
is a bad and dangerous practice.
Extension cords are not made to
be attached permanently to the
walls or baseboards. This copper
size is too small for proper OPP
Grafton of many lamps and ap-
pliances. The presence of many
extension cords in. a home is one
of the most definite proofs that
the wiring system is not adequate.

INCREASED POPULATION
DEMANDS SOIL SAVING

Steadily increasing populations in
the United States and in the world
that must be fed from the land
together with new industrial pres
sures that require redoubled care
of the Nations soil resources were
described by Hugh H. Bennett the
recent annual meeting of the Am
erican Political Science Association
in Cleveland, Ohio.
These needs already are exerting
themselves on the worlds supply
of productive land" Dr. Bennett
warned, land will continue to do
so with such force as to challenge
our utmost chronological capacity.
We cannot afford to ignore the re-
lationship between the land and
our smokestacks. The productive
raw materials are produced is linn
land out of which these organic
tied. just as definitely as are the
supplies of minerals which we dig
out of the ground And we cam
not stockpile soil in the way we
can tin, tungsten, lead, and uran-
ium."
He pointed to estimates that this
county's farms supply the raw mat
erials for between two-fifths and
two-thirds of industry's needs, and

Composed of six ex-GTs and about

Elwood Smith, the sensational
young baritone, appearing at the

some" one middle aged lady stated
last evening. HE reminds me of
my first love-. She was wearing a
wedding ring and several other
sparklers, evidently the gentlemen
she was with didn't like what she
said because he hurriedly left,
leaving her the check to pay.
Smith, one of Harlem's best
known play girls said, makes me
feel like mothering him.. His eyes
become all soft when he sings and
you get the feeling that he is sing
ing right out of the bottom of his
heart and that you are an intimate
part of it." This young lady insists
on a ringside table each time she
comes to the Club so that she can
look right into Elwood's eyes. Ell
wood is one of the most versatile
of the rising vocalists of the day.
When he was at Xavier University,
