NANTES, France, June 15.—- Ships and aeroplanes were scour- ing the waters off Point St. Gildas tonight searching for l-ddltior/‘l bodias of the approximately 400 excursionists who lost their lives yesterday afternoon, when the ex- cursion steamer St. Philbert cap- sized and sank near Noirmoutier Island.

As the quest for bodies went on the searchers also nourished the faintest hope that some additional survivors might turn up to be add- ed to the slender list of eight who were rescued last night. Late ic- night s total of 0i bodies had been recovered fromthe seayblod them bodies of women. As the work of retrieving the bodies went on. in- describeble scenes were enacted on the shore. One man came riding up to the waterfront on a bicycle cry- ing like a child. "I put my whole life into one ideal," he said, "my young son, eighteen years old, who was on that boat.“
