Germany has ready for sea two 20,- 000-ton battleships and the three pocket battleships of 10,000 tons, with a collectivë main armament of of 36 11in guns, and two battleships 35,000 tons, armed with 10in guns, are being built. Two 10,000-ton armoured cruisers with Bin guns are ready, and a third is completing, while four other cruisers of 7,000 to 10,000 tons, mounting din guns, are on the stocks.

Of the two 19,230-ton

aircraft enrriers buikding, the first is to be launched on Thursday. With a main armament of 10 5.0in guns and a powerful anti-aircraft battery, these ships are as much fghting cruisers as aircraft carriers, and they are. elaimed to be the only vessels of their type which have strong armour protection.

It was blowing hard from the south-east with heavy seas and tor- rential rain, bul volunteers from the local ambulance brigade came for- ward to make the journey.

After three hours battling, the Salvor, with Skipper Kirkoldie in command, arrived back in port with Seaman A. G. Nash of Commercial Road, London.

CRUSHED BY CABLE

He had been crushed by the heavy cable of the lightship and was suffer- ing from a fractured pelvis.

Skipper Kirkaldie said: "It was one of the most terrible tasks I have ever been set.

"Nosh was in great agony. The sea was to heavy that we dared not attempt to get him aboard the moter-

boat until we had lashed him to the

stretcher with ropes. Then we had to wait our opportunity as the Salvor rose on the crisi of a wave to swing the stretcher out from the lightship.

"When we got him on board we were pitching so badly that to prevent the stretcher slipping we had to tie it to the deck. Seas broke over us all the way and we rigged up a shelter for Nash with spars and tarpaulin."
