It was clear earlv in lite hearing
that the rornmlttoA members had
made their minds up to advocate leg
islation preventing wireless operators
on shipboard from holding back the
details or disasters. Marconi and I
Sammis both acknowledged a mis- j

Sammis Not tc Blame. '
Frederick M Sa.pmis. chief enc
neer of the American Marconi corr

was excused and resented bitterly the
imputation that he had been the
cause of the suppression or nev.
from the Carpathia which, he said
resulted in his neighbors ";ointiiig
the Anger of scorn at him " He sa'd
be told the Carnathia's wireless op

phoned to Mr Davidson, In charge of
the -wireless, and instructed him o
tell the boys that arrangements had
been made to care for them I thought
It would brace them up." Sammis
said arrangements. to caro for' tn
operators were made by Marconi and
ISottomly. the generol manager, ha
merely earntd out the plan as d

that probably a "m'stake" nad beefi
made in the manner in which stories
were placed.

tion and there would have been no

News Corses Last.
Sammis said the international tel
egraph code users already had gone
on record as putting news 'dispatches
last on the list of the wireless as to
precedence. Sammis declared that
liride and Cottam. o.erators on tl.fl
Carpathia, should not be blamed for
not sending news from the ship. "If
there is any blame," said Sammis. "K
should be on the captain of the Car
Ith'a. Thp captain of a ship is cen
sor over all wireless messages sent
from the thip. Operators are there
to send and receive. They send
nothing the captain does not nans
on "
5ammis said the American wireless
operatois on board a ship receive ?47
a month, English operators get fo ir
nounds a month.
PAS Franklin, after consulta
tion with Ismav. addressed th committee-
"I want to say on behalf of
Mr lsmay, for the International Mer

White Star line and for myself per
sonally, that we absolve all the tel
