Dead Bodies Tell A Tragic Story OSLO, Norway, Dec i4—(A.P.)-

Two men, more dead than alive, floated ashore hear the fishing vill-

age of Maaloey yesterday in a bah, ,

tered and leaking lifeboat. WithE them were the bodies of four of. their comrades, dead from thirst, hunger and cold.

'I‘he landing of the two survivors marked the tragic end of the career of the German trawler Venus, which has used the shadowy paths. of the North Sea. and the cover of night. 1.0 deliver cargoes of illicit liquor on the shores of Norway.

Seventeen members of the vessel crew are either dead or missing.

The two survivors were incoher- ent, but from their fragmentary statements the authorities were able to piece togethcr the story of the Venus.

December 1 the Venus put out from Lerwick, Shetlandtlslands, with sl- mose 5,000 gallons of liquor. Sev- eral days ago. after she had suc- ceeded in landing three thousand gallons on the Norwegian coast. she was found by a coast guard cutter. The cutter dined twenty shots at her, some of them proving effective, but she escaped in the lowering dusk.

Soon afterward she struck the rocks off the Sogne Coast north of Berlin. The crew got her off and kept her afloat by pumps only to‘ have her ground again, rip open at the bottom and sink.

The seamen attempted to escape in two boats and on pieces of wreck age. One bout capsized and the I111 men in it were drowned. !

The other lifeboat also capsized.‘
