(Associated Press by Wireless) LAKEHURST, N. April 11. Lt. Cmdr. Herbert Wiley, the only officer who survived the Akron disaster, told a naval inquiry board today he believed a down-rushing current, of air, the center of a terrific storm, sucked the airship downward to destruction and the loss of 73 Cmdr.

Wiley said he now believes the shock which he previously attributed to a severe gust of wind a few seconds before the crash was the result of the Akron's taU striking the water. He based this opinion on the fact that he had not felt the wind through the control car. and the feel of the shock was different from anything he had experienced before. Previously he had expressed the opinion that the Akron was 800 feet in the air when he felt the shock. Cmdr.

Wiley testified that offi cers and crew did their duty, to the best of their ability. "If any errors were made they were beyond the skill, and experience existing today" he concluded. Richard Deal and Moody Erwin, enlisted survivors, had agreed with Cmdr. Wiley's earlier report to the navy, attributing the shock they felt to a sudden gust of wind while the airship was wholly in the air. Cmdr.

Wiley said today he had changed his mind partly because the enlisted men told him they saw the girders buckle inside the ship after the shock. Erwin said the ship was still flying after the jar "and it couldn't fly after it was in the water. "When the tail hit the water the ship was checked," Erwin said. "I heard the tail hit. I heard the water swishing and the forward part of the ship continued falling." When the ship crashed, said Erwin, "it sounded like stepping on a box of matches."
