(When a disaster occurs at sea the rescuing ship is bom- barded by wireless for details of the event. As soon as he could do so Captain Fried pre- pared a graphic account of the rescue of the Florida and dis- patched it to The Associated Press. He was acting in his ca- pacity as honorary member of The Associated Press staff, an appointment won because of his'aid in telling the world of otlter news events.) By CAPT.

None of us knew whether we would make it and furthermore we were in no position to leave our watches to answer these many radio grams. Editors of newspapers through- out the United States were sending duplwnbe messages and when we fnl]ed to respond they would in- quire if they had been delivered. Phen in desperation they would ap- peal' to the passengers. Being in communication with other vessels as well as the Florida, however, our wireless transmission was confined to the morc serious work of the A A e shed it to The Associated Press . I was wet to the sKin, the rain hav- ing penetrated my heavy overcoat which I did not change for I did not want to take time After a few hours sleep I began work on a detdiled account of the rescue.
