OCEANOGRAPHY IN THE UNITED STATES 129 



Mr. Drewry. Might I say, Mr. Chairman, that tliis material just 

 handed to me appears to be a statement by Mr. E. H. Hiller, master 

 of the Albatross^ Mr. William J. Bruce, first officer, and Mr. Austin 

 J. Powers, second officer. 



I have not had a chance to look at that yet. 



Mr. Miller, I want to thank you, Mr. McKernan, for being here 

 and tell you that I think that you have done a very good job under 

 these circumstances and we look forward to seeing you at proceedings 

 of the Committee on Oceanography in the future. 



I want to thank you, gentlemen, for being here. 



Without objection, the committee will recess. 



(Whereupon, at 11 :45 a.m., the committee recessed, subject to the 

 call of the Chair.)
