He is 51 years old and has » spent 32 of these on the ocean, 22 in command of liners. During the World War he navigated convoys, work given only to the most skillful and daring skippers. For heroism during World War days he was recommended for the Distin- guished Service Medal and praised in & personal letter from Josephus Daniels, then Secretary of the Navy. Fried’s Record Noteworthy. Capt. Pried, 52, for 31 years a sea- man, commanded a ship carrying sup- plies during the war. He was made captain of the liner President Roose- t in 1922 and the America in 1928. He has numerous medals and other awards for bravery. Transfer of these men will be ef- fective in January when Capt. Harold A. Cunningham, now skipper of the Leviathan, returns from his last trip. He has resigned to “give more time to golf” and to head the shipping divi- slon of the Standard Oil Co. e RADIO STATION LICENSES EXTENDED S}X MONTHS Less Red Tape and Elimination of Litigation Expected to Aid in Securing Better Programs.
