Put-l\a1n's destination, Paris, was not enouneed until lust before the eta-rt. No reason was given for its choice. The piano which holds the evietrix's destiny is a 000- horsepower Wasp motored craft with e cruising speed of 140 miles an hour, e maximum speed of 180 and a musing radius of 8,200 miles. It carried a fuel supply of 420 gal- lons of gasoline and 20 gallons of oil, sufficient, she was confident, to keep her aloft for fully 20 hours. nr herself. she carried a quart of chicken soup and nothing more. A light southwest wind was blow- ingand the ski was cloudy as Mrs. Putnam sped eastward toward her goal but ahe had the cheering promise of clear skies and friendly winds along the way. ' BT. JOHNS, Nfld., May 20-(By the Canadian Press)-This night five -years ago a slim Viking rode on silver wings down the great circle course toward Paris. Tonight that city's lights were still beckon- ing. but it was a gold and crimson moth that flew toward them-e big bright ,monoplene with e slender girl at ‘the controls. Perhaps the Lindbergh anniver- aer! had some bearing on the choice of Paris for Amelia Earhart Put- nern'a attempt to write her name on eviation's adventurous record ea the first women to fly the Atlantic alone. Two years ago. with Wilmer Stults and Lou Gordon piloting, she became thefirat ofhersex to cross by Plane. - In any event, Paris it was as ahe stepped into the cockpit at Harbor Grace tcnight,,lust five hours after Berne Balohen had set the plane down there from Saint John, N. B. Previously she had intimated Rome might be her objective. Amelia had slept part of the time while Bal- ohen and mechanic Eddie Goralri went over the engine on which the f1yer's hopes rest, and stored in fuel. At 5.51, Atlantic Standard Time, the craft was in the air. There wee no sunlight to glint on its bright body, as Balchen and Goreki joined the throng to wave good-byes, but Amelie had the promise of breaking clouds and e furthering wind at see. _ D0-X lad! Four hours after the take~off the plane had been unreported by ship- ping. Meanwhile, I0 miles up the coast of Conception Bay from Har- bor Crace, the giant Do-X, halted here on the way back to Switzer- land after a year and e helf's ab- sence, lay at I-Iolyrood. 'Ibday 7,000 gallons of fuel were poured into the men\moth'a tanlul to carry her on to the Azores under Captain lkederick Christiansen. Yesterday the Do-X flew from Long Island Sound to Dildo cn Trinity Bay, `croaeing over to 1-lolyrcod, a dis- tance of 25 miles, this morning. Bolyrood had been picked for a take-off spot to avoid the possibil- ity of difficulty with the ocean swell which comes in around Cape lt. hencls and rumbles up thc beach et Harbor Grace.

Three l i _r§ I ieisea the wisdom of the capital eg. penditures that have been made. - Lees Capital Expenditure "'Doubtlesa had the present world depression not so adversely affeetaq the system or continued for such a great length of time, better results from. these capital expenditures would have accrued to the system. In view, therefore,'!_ the report eaya, "of the results of the past two or three years. your committee strong- ly recommend that until there is a. marked improvement in the esm- inss of the system. capital expend- iture should be limited strictly to the blrelt necessities, llwlys con- eietent with efficiency." The committee concur in the re- commendation of the sub-commit- tee appointed by the C. N. R. di- rectors that "specific rather than horizontal reductions in salaries" of all officials of the system be put into effect, and also in the action of that sub-committee in examin- ing further into salaries exceeding $5,000 per annum. ' In this connection the report calls attention to the fact that evidence submitted to the committee show-. ed thet, as of July 21, 1931, e total of 96 officials of the road were re- C9lVll18 $10,000 per annum and over, while 37 officials were being paid $15,000 a year and over. Salaries Excessive “Your committee are of opinion that the salaries paid to the high officials are excessive and should immediately be substantially de- creased." the report deolar-gg, The number of railway officials is glso too high, in the commlttee’s opin- ion, and reductions should be made there. Tho directors' sub-commit. tee are asked to give immediate ef- fect to "the principles underlying this recommendation." The $5,000 fee received by Sir Henry Thornton from the Ontario Car Ferry should be cancelled, the °°mrnittce recommends, while the report also asks that the $15,000 e Year allowed to the President es,an expense account be reviewed by the directors in the light of its incon- sistency with the terms of his con- tract engagement; Exlwrlsc accounts of all the rail- way officials should be supported by vouchers and other necessary- evid- GIM 01' Payment. continues the. re- port: and a special sub~committee of the directors should be set up to examine these accounts irrespec- tive of who submits them. stricter control over expenses for entertain- ments, club dues and donations is recommended. Enlargement of the finance com- mittee of the directorate' by' two more members is urged, and all ex- penditures "save and except pay rolls, amounting in value to $215,000 or over, should first be passed upon by the finance committee and sub- sequently ratified by the boar-'d or the executive committee." '1'hornton’s Free Residence The report finds that the pur- chasing and leaning or sir 1-renry Thomton’s residence et 1415 Pine /Avenue, Montreal, constituted "a successful attempt by the board of directors to do indirectly what could not be done directly by expenditure on capital account-namely, to pro- cure a residence for the President free of rent, taxes and repairs." While the board may not have ex- ceeded its legal powers in so doing, nevertheless the committee finds it did not exercise that degree of prudence, care and judgment re- quisite in the premises. Further re- view of this transaction is recom- mended to the end that, if possible, it may be rescinded. Careful review by the board and the management of the whole ques- tion of the New York and other of- fices of the C .N. lt. ie demanded, together with a recommendation that non-remunerative offices be closed down. _ Continued vigilance to avert the introduction of political patronage into the operation of the railways is recommended.
