He got a big thrill out of a visit to Worcester, Mass,, his ¢ home town, however, while the New York and other receptions left him dazed.) By CAPT. GEORGGE FRIED (Copyright 1929, Associated Press) CHAPTER XXIII Twice I have been the central figure in rather spectacular sea res- I felt resignea to whatever come. As great, migit if not greater, was my | 1ast greeting in New York City an: {later I visited Washington, Phila- | deiphia, Boston, Providence, Chica- | go, Cincinnati, Culver, Ind., and my | home town, Worcester, Mass. In |cach city I was given tremendous | ovations and extended such unusua! | courtesies that each experience will | always be indelibly carved in my | memory, but with it all I have one regret—that I did not have with | me.my chief officer, Mr. Manning, innd his splendid boat crew. Like a general commanding an army or an admiral directing a "quzxdron of ships, the captain of a | merchant vessel receives credit for ol 'l'he tremendous ovations made me (t:cl it was all a dream . cues and twice I have been honor- ed and feted by thousands of my fellow citizens in various parts of 'the country, but I can assure you that it is far easier standing on the bridge of my America facing a stinging nor'wester than to be con- fronted by an admiring throng| waiting for me te make a speech. A sailor is at home on a ship but not in a hall or auditorium or be- hind the banquet table. Sailors may be noted for spinning yarns but not at banquets. ¢ After the Antinoe rescue this hero business was all new and strange. I felt it was all a dream. 1t was an amazing and bewildering experience and never once did I know what to expect next. I weath- } .ered the first so after the second something done by hig officers and men. But there are others whose work cannot be overlooked. First of all there is the personal heroism of every individual in the boat crew who endangers his life by venturing in an open boat on a high sea. Then there are the | men who double up to maintain the stcam pressure in the boilers, and the alert engine crew that responds | inctantly to orders from the bridge. The loss of a moment in executing an order by these men might mean disaster and yet they can see noth- ing from their positions in the hold of the ship. The credit for effect- ing a safe rescue belongs to every man of the crew, but in the case of failure, the blame is placed on the shoulders of the captain, {engaged in financing and other ac- I do not particularly feel like a hero.

But after all, it was in the Iine of duty and the master of any ship in my po- sition would have done his best. I could have enjoyed all the re- septions that have been given in mny honor if I had never been called ’m to make a speech.

The aggregate value of all stocks and bonds listed on the New York Stock Exchange is almost 100 times the present total holdings of in- vestment trusts. Converts to the trust idea therefore are saying that the curface has only been scratched and that there is a wide area for expansion. Some well informed persons in the financial district predict that the next step will be the merger of existing trust companies into larg- er organizations, and so on.
