11 Former Navy Ships
*
Sail for Turkey After
ERP Exchange Here
By the Assecioted Press
NORFOLK, Va., June 12—Eleven
Turkish naval units', which until
yesterday were warships of the
United States Navy, will weight an- |
chor here today for their new coun
I try.
The vessels were transferred from
| the United States to Turkey under
i the European Recovery Program,
and the Turkish Ambassador said
they will act as guardians of Turk-!
ish “independence and territorial j
I integrity.”
Ambassador H. R. Baydur ac
cepted the eight United States Navy
minesweepers, a repair ship, a gaso
line tender and a net layer in trans
fer ceremonies held at the Norfolk
| Naval Station. ■ i,
Mr. Baydur pledged that the “ap
preciation of the friendly solicitude
^of America in the defense of Turkey I
will never fade from the hearts of
Turkish people who know the value j
of true friendship.”
The ships, he said, are “at the
service of the peace. The United!
States Government has given them
to us for that purpose and on that
! understanding, and we have re-:
ceived them for that purpose and on
that understanding.”
When the ships sail for Turkey
today they will be manned by Turk
ish crews which have been trained
,in this country for several months
; in the operation of the vessels.
I In delivering the vessels to Am
bassador Baydur, Rear Admiral C.
E. Olsen, commander of the Norfolk
Naval Base and Naval Station: said
that the United States is pledged
under the European Recovery Pro
gram to assist Turkey, “as we are to
assist the other participating na
tions, in the hope that this concord
of Democratic nations may stave
off the threat of envelopment and
submission which hangs over them."
