The most important thing was to see that sufficient provisions and water were in the boat, a com. pass, several lengths of rope, flares, | flashlights, a hand lantern and buckets for bailing. Every man wore a life belt. But it is always wise to re-check and make certain that everything is in satisfactory condition.

Their courage and ability should give our people something to think about and make them proud of the men in the American Merchant Marine. They are not looking for rewards, but if any rec- ognition is given to the men of the America it should go to the life- boat crew in charge of one of the most gallant young officers with whom I have ever been associated— Harry Manning.
