The position Is exposed to the open sea of Mil bank Sound. The possibility of sal vage, therefore, depends upon weather and the time element Is Important. Capt. Armour reported that a dlv er had already examined the hull from stem to stern. The double bottom has been penetrated right into the fuel tanks and there is a large hole area for about fifty feet from forty feet aft of the stem to the engine room. At high water the vessel is practically submerged. The Kvichak Is a heavy steel built vessel. She Is equipped with two 500-h.p. Atlas Imperial dlesel engines. The Intention is to buoy the ves sel up after she Is refloated with compressed air and four large barges, two on either side. Thus the plan Is to bring her into Prince Ru pert. Now standing by the Kvichak are the power tug Amarlyss and the derrick scow Skookum III. which carried out such salvage as already has been done of the deck catgo and will take part In the salvaging of the, hull.

SUICIDE OR MURDER NEW YORK General Kavlt-' sky, one time i chief of the Rus-J sian secret police and more re-. cently identified with the Fed-' eral Bureau of Investigation, was found shot to death in a New York hotel yesterday. The ques- ion is whether he suicided or was murdered. Some are inclined to blame the Ogpu, far-reaching Soviet military police. Kavitsky had written articles for a well known magazine condemning the Soviet regime. WHAT FRANCE IS DOING VICHY The visit of General Francisco Franco of Spain with Premier Mussolini is the cause of much speculation. Question is whether there is a move to mediate an Italian-British peace or whether Spanish co-operation with the Axis is sought. There are varying reports that Franco may later confer with Chancellor Hitler or Marshal Petaln.
