radio-telegraphed the ship that the two ships were racing toward each other and that he would take the appropriate measures to avoid collision upon receiving confirmation "Capt Calamai again repeated the warning and the Stockholm again acknowledged the message But despite all this the Swedish ship kept following the orginal the continued Calamai then decided to try at least to get out of tbs route
