Many versions of how' the German luxury liner "Bremen" eluded . the 1'4oya1 Navy on her hi,storid ,t,cip Priam, New York to Murmiansk, have ap- peared in the press of the world. Fol- lowing is the version told in England by authoritative sources to C. J. H. Sn'id'er, Toronto, who ,told the story in an address at ,the annual Mariners Service at Cherry Valley this week.
