Bulletin
Lakehurst, N. J., Nov. 13. (UP) The naval dirigible Los Angeles is expected to leave the naval air station in New York for a visit by the lifeboats of the liner Vestris.
New York, Nov. 13—(AU)—Five of rescue vets today and rescue team members aboard the passengers and crew of the air Veritas, which sank off the Wilmington in Cape Verus.
A drama of horror was pieced together from radio flashes today as rescue vessels picked up a northeast liner, who had spent 16 to 20 in lifeboats, on rafts, on bit of ice and in life belts on the chapel. *Atlanta*
Began Yesterda
The epic of the sea bug bne up before noon yesterday when the Vectria water logged, startling sipped 240 miles off the Virginia anape. It was a great day for him and operator Michael J. O'Leaughli flashed the word to ships speeding toward nim; "Taking to lifeboats now". It was nightfall before any ships reached the scene. It was 2:25 a.m. The ship was sighted by the S. S. American Shipper and its survivors as much dead as alive were culled to safety.
All Night in Boats
All night, bundled in the open boots, all under a driving rain and with sense white-capped by lusty winds, they had searched for a sight of rescue teamers. The man may have pulled at the gate; his progress must have seemed slow.
It must have been a terrible experience for the women, estimated at about 30 years old, to take their places in fifteenth short after afternoon yearend under the rule of the Nazis.
Even worse off were those who had no lifeboats, but bobbled on small rafts, clung to wreckage or were buffed this way and that with no support except the lifebelts holding them up. The bitter cold of the wind would have seemed useless to them compared with the cold of the sea itself.

Hoover May Include Nicaragua in Proposed Latin-American Visi
Present Plans Call for Stop in Argentina, Chila, Cuba an Mexico
By Thomas L. Stokes
United Press Staff Correspondent
Falo Alto, Calif., Nov. 13—(UP)—President-Elect Howard L. Latin America
ambassador to the United States in bernarock next Monday, will include
calls in Mexico and perhaps Nicaragua, centers of most outspoken ill-treatment of the United States of
countries below the Rio Grande.
No. 52
Plans are being made for a stop at Vera Cruz and a railroad journey to Mexico City on the northward journey back to the United States. There they will be guests of Ambassador Dwight W. Morrow, whose success in restoring good relations between the two countries has won high praise. Morrow has been mentioned as likely to be Secretary of State.
Aim to Settle Differences
There, as in Nicaragua, Howard's aim would be to further efforts recently made to settle differences between the United States and those countries. Whether the President-Elect will visit New York City, he also has received institutions from other Central American Republics.
Significant as he is the South American trip, the Howitzer entrance will be comparatively small. About forty of his members are part, including the President-Elect.
A visit to Nicaragua would be unusual but a hold stroke, one in keeping with Hower's Latin American ventures, which was unexpected and uneasy. It may have come from high officials in Central and South America.
Mrs. Hoover will not accompany the President-Elect. His son, Allan Hoover, will make the trip.
The South American sea voyage will be about 26 days,12 on the south ward trip and about 14 on the northward return.
The first stop will be at Balcon, where Hoover will inspect the Panama Canal. The complete itinerary, which include a flight to Cancun, Chile, Buenos Aires, Argentina, Montevideo, Uruguay, Rue de Jiané, Brazil, Mexico City and Havana, Cuba will be announced later, probably in State Department at Washington.

"This is in no sense a highbrow lecture. The scientist and the high school student will sit side by side. The lecture is a simple, dramatic literary, told in simple language. It will be illustrated by a half hour of music, with the arctic," said Dean John R. Dyer in commenting upon the lecture.

C. Buchler said this morning in commencing on the debate, which will take place Wednesday, Nov. 15, in Foyer theater from 7:30 to 9.

Women Hear Sandelius
"Will to Peace" Key to Kellogg
Pact, Speaker Says
"The importance of the Kellogg pact is its emphasis on the will to peace," said Prof. W. E. Sandelius yesterday in a lecture at preface before the College League of Women Voters. The beautiful thought expressed in the part, Mr. Sandelius pointed out, was to resource war as an act of deliberation.
