Over and above the mat damage. heavy duty. freight and storage charges were added The severe weather which set in in November chilled the potatoes so badly in box cars that heavy pg. placements had to be made this spring, with potatoes at much sreater cost to the Association, to those who purchased seed last fall, thus causing further loss.

At a. largely attended meeting of the Association held in Charlotte. WW"- °n May 9. the whole situation was discussed and by a unanimous vote the meeting authorized the board of directors to take the ne- cessary stepg to meet the present financial situation.

Aftor the meeting, the directors met the bankers, who outlined ma; 1t would be necessary to 35595; [m- all mount 0f $75.00 per member, in order to liquidate liabilities and have sufficient capital in reserve successfully to can-y on the A550. station's operations.

"It was the worst experience I ever had." said Pond, after walking to Lahinch, where the flyers rested at a hotel.

Much Fog

“We saw absolutely nothing from the time we left Newfoundland un- til reaching Ireland. We encoun- tered much fog and a very strong veering wind."

The flyers sought aid from Bal- donnel, and an air corps there was sending a mechanic to help repair the plane. They hoped repairs would be completed tomorrow in time for a take-oil’ for Rome before nightfall.

Both flyers appeared quite fresh despite their sleepless vigil. A crowd quickly gathered at the hotel when it became known they had landed.

Lleut. Sabelli, in his version of the flight, said “after about 23 hours of blind flying, trouble developed with the engine. We lowered the plane and at first thought of attempSng to alight in the sea.

"Fortunately, the trouble clears: up and the machine gained altitude again.

Line Chokod

“At another stage of the flight, the gasoline line choked, but Pond, with great courage, left the cockpit, climbed out to the reserve tank and cleared the flow. Otherwise we would have been forced down in the Atlantic.

Sabeili said that they sighted land shortly before dusk.

"We were flying low enough to see cottages below us," he said. "From our bearings the land was obviously Ireland, so without delay we came down alter being irl the air more than 30 hours.”

A member of the civic guard at Lahinch said the first infonnafion regarding the flyers was brought by themselves when they walked into

wn. "They looked well, although tired," he said. "Their gasoline was almost exhausted when they landed." They came down easily, but after touching the ground. struck a ditch, and dam- aged the under-carriage.

(By Andrue Berding, Associated Press Foreign Staff) ROME, May 15—Dlsappointmel1t was mingled with relief tonight when Rome leamed that Captain George Pond and Lieut. Cesare Sabelli were forced to stop their New York-to-Rome flight in Ire-

land.

The news found many persons— including officials and newspaper men—on their way to Ciampino Airfield, which had been prepared for the landing. An all-night vigil was in prospect since the flyers, had they completed their project, would not have arrived here until the early morning hours.

The Air Ministry representatives. while expressing regret the non- stop flight was not accomplished, were happy that the aviators were safe on this side of the Atlantic.

ways retorted that the Liberal Gov- ernment had “sat back and penult- ted the gentleman in charge of the Canadian National Railways at that time to become such a squanderer of the people's money that nobody dared to open his mouth for fear of risking his life."

Control Lacking

"There was no control whatsoever by the Government of the director- ate of that day or of the gentleman who later disappeared from the management of the Canadian Na- tional Railways for the good of the railways and the good of this coun- tryf.

The record of the King Govern- ment, Dr. Manion exclaimed, “in re- gard to this great public utility was more appalling than the record of any other government in Canada, federal or provincial, in regard to any public utility in this country." The debate on the budget has been unfortunate for amendments. Some days ago the sub-amendment to the motion to go into committee of ways and means was ruled out of order by Mr. Speaker Black; today he rul- ed the Liberal amendment out of or- del- for the reason that it duplicated motions already on the order paper, or already dealt with. The amend- ment urged other policies in respect to credit and unemployment as well as tariff policies contrary to those of the government. The Speaker's rul- ing was sustained when the House divided, and shortly afterwards Wil- liam Irvine (UJRA. Wctaskiwin) moved an amendment attacking the Government for not taking steps to distribute the abundance of the nation among the Canadian people.

The iightship was modemiy-equlp- ped, even to the extent of a radio fog beacon, for use in foggy weather. She was of steel construction with two tall masts, and was commission- ed in 1931 at a cost of $200,000.

A I} T I II N B Y GREAT BRITAIN

“Waiting Policy” Will Be Adopted In Re- gard to War Debts Payments.

(AP. By Guardian's Special Wire)

LONDON, May 15—Until the whole subject of war debts has been further clarified, Sir John Simon, Foreign Secretary, declared in the House of Commons yesterday Great Britain will not decide what course she is to follow next month when her payment to the United States fall due. .

Asked whether a token payment would be made, Sir John answered that it would depend on “the cir- cumstances prevailing at the mo- merit."

‘The waiting policy Britain ap- parently means to follow now may delay all action on the question until June after the Whitsuntide holidays, it was believed. A Down- ing Street informant told the As- sociated Press that British states. men are eagerly waiting Pl-esldent Roosevelt's war debt message to Congress.

Efforts of the “silver group" in the U. S. Conkwss to persuade Great Britain to pay the June debt installment in silver evoked gmilgg in official quarters.

“Should anyone suggest payment in goods. debtors would be more interested," one official observed.

II N I BA G II GRAIN TRADER BURNS NRA

(A- P- By Guardian's Special Wire)

CHICAGO, May 15. —- Arthur W. Cutten, adherent of the old days of unfettered grain trading, went on trial for its trading privileges today.

The veteran champion of rugged individualism in the wheat pits snubbed the opening hearing of charges that he violated the Futures Trading Act by refusing to let the grain administration know of his big deals. Instead he sent an attorney to challenge the right of the secre- tary of agriculture to sit as both complainant and judge of his ac- tions in the market.

Cutten, last of the noted Giants of the Chicago board of trade, has been cited by Secretary of Agricul- turefflenry A. Wallace for alleged failure to comply with regulations requiring every operator in the grain market to report his position long or short on 500,000 bushels or more. The penalty can be only the with- drawal of his trading privileges on every contract market.

The government counsel piled its table high with ledgers subpoenaed from Chicago grain houses, read from them figures that told of 100,- 000,200,000 and 700,000 bushel sales of wheat back in the days when the agencies of the federal farm board were trying to support a. falling market.

"Strange coincidences“ of heavy short selling by Cutten and sudden slumps in wheat prices will be drawn from the ledger-s of eight brokerage houses in which Cutten operated 34 dummy accounts, Leo E. Tierney, at- torney for the Department of Agri- culture, aserted. _
