Skipper Of Rodman
Describes Rescue Of
. Hobson Survivors
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, May 3.-A deS-
troyer commander today gave a
graphic account of the rescue of
% men who were thrown from the
United States Destroyer Hobson
after its Atlantic collision with the
aircraft carrier Wasp.
The story came from 1t. Comdr.
Chester M. Lee, 80, of Latrobe,
Pa, commander of the United
States Destroyer Rodman, as the
Rodman arrived here.
After the collision on the night
of April 26. Comdr. Lee said. the
commanding officer of the Wasp
ordered the destroyer to assist
any people in the water"
I'VE closed in," he said, land
we saw men in the water who
were shouting their positions.
They were covered with oil.
1--WE lowered our motor rail
boat and flashed searchlights
and signal lights looking for sur
vivors."
Life RATS, floater nets and
other equipment were dropped
over the side.
Many members of the Rodman's
crew offered to jump into the sea
after the men, but Comdr. Lee
said this effort was not necessary.
Ensign Clifford L. Peacock, "a,
Of Norfolk, Va, commanded a 26-
foot whaleboat that picked up
about Is men.
"You could only pull them out
by their belts. they were so slip
perry" he said. You could only
see their eyes and teeth"
Ensign Peacock said he and five
other men manned the boat and
then cut the engines 80 we could
hear the yelling.
"One man was yelling for his
mother, but mostly they yelled
here or help We just headed
for the yells.
'We grabbed them by the belts
and hauled them in the boat.
Wherever they Topped they stayed.
They didn't say anything.
1.-TWO men held on our bow, and
we couldn't reach them until they
fell Off"
% Survivors Picked Up.
Eventually the Rodman picked
up % oil-covered survivors. In all,
81 men were rescued and 176 were
killed in the disaster. The Hobson,
cut in two, sank.
AS the Rodman crew pulled in
survivors, they were taken to the
mess room between decks.
All appeared to be in deep shock,
said Delbert E. Matthews, 80, of
Medford. Ore, chief hospital
corpsman.
They were given brandy, hot
coffee and anything else they
could eat," Corpsman Matthews
said.
Other survivors were picked up
by The Wasp and other destroy
erS.
Those aboard the Rodman later
were moved to the Wasp by hell
copter.
The Wasp, carrying the sur
vivors, is due to arrive here Mon
day.

Fees al French Ports
Cost U. 5. 81 10 s. 10
Land Each Soldier
BY the Associoted Press

PARIS. May 3.lFrench port fees
are costing the United States Sc
for every American officer and
more than So for every enlisted
man landed in France, its partner
in Western defense.
The United States has opened
negotiations with France, it was
learned today, in an effort to cut
these and other port levies that
sometimes run as high as $4,000
per ship unloading soldiers and
arms.
The discussions supplement
talks initiated by Americans in an
effort to prevent a system of
French indirect taxes from taking
ST from every SIS that the Ameri-
can taxpayer shells out for mill
tarv construction work in France.
The port fees include pilot
charges, whether ore not pilot is
used, tug charges, wharf rental
and a port maintenance toll
which the French call peage-on
persons and cargoes.
Regarded as Fees for Services.
The French government regards
all these charges as fees for serv-
ices rendered. The United States
Government maintains freighters
carrying military cargoes and used
by the United States Military Sea
Transportation Service should be
considered part of the United
States Navy and exempted from at
least the peage fee.
It is the peage charge which
obliges the United States to pay
France Sc a head for officers and
more than 50 for GIs entering
France.
The charge is also levied on
every ships cargo-whether the
cargo is 155 millimeter guns or
whisky.
The French say it is not Gus
toms duty. However. it works much
the same. A tank is assessed for a
higher fee than the same weight
In coal because it is a finished
manufactured product.
Because of military secrecy on
troop numbers and ship move
ments, no estimate was available
of how much the peace charge so
far has cost the United States.
But about 10000 United States
troops are based in France. Others
pass through as transients.
Goes for HarbOr Facilities.
The peace fee is collected by
the French customs service which
acts as a cashier. The money
goes to the ports Chamber of
Commerce. which acts as a banker
for member companies operating
the port.
The money is used to pay off
loans contracted jointly by men,
ber companies for such things as
buying cranes, building ware
houses. constructing harbor moles
and dredging.
Since the chambers only reve-
nue. is the peace fees, the French
say that if certain ships and car
goes were suddenly exempted the
chambers finances would go to
pieces and so would the ports.
In theory the fe is chargeable
to all ships, military and CONNER
cial. However, it is a courtesy
practice by France and other ma
tions to exempt ships of another
nations navy. Z
The United States wants this
exemption applied to regular COM
mercial shipping line freighters
carrying military cargoes. The
Frenc hsay these ships are not on
the United States Navy list and
should not be exempted.

He pointed out that, when q

a balance between huiIdup and

However. he said, persons be-

terms. is known as receding gums,

This often results in fang teeth,
in which the gums grow back and

The filling material used, made
Of resin or synthetic plastics, has
been used by many dentists ex-

ever. it is usually mixed before
application much in the same
