SAYS BAD WEATHER
DEFEATED PLANES
Commander Towers of NC-3 Tells of
Plucky Fight of the Crew After
Losing Hope.

PONTA DELGADA, Nav 21-" Ex-
ceptionally bad weather, which was to-
tally unexpected, was the sole reason
for the failure of all three of the Amer
lean navy's scaplanes to fly from IRE
passey, n. f. to Ponta Delgada on
schedule time, said Commander John
H. Towers to the correspondent of the
Associated Press last night.
Commander Towers and the members
of his crew were much refreshed last
night after having regained sleep lost
while bucking. the storm for Is hours
and being adrift 53 hours more, entire
Ily out of communication with the
world
Individually, said Commander
Towers, the members of the crew of
the NC-3 virtually gave up hope of be-
| ing rescued Saturday night, but collec-
| lively they showed no signs of fear
and carried on until they arrived in
Iport here Monday and heard the forts
| firing saves III welcome and witnessed
the scenes of general jubilation over
their escape from the sea.
. Having run short of fuel and en-
countering heavy fog, the NC-3 came
down at / clock Saturday afternoon
in order that we might obtain our bear
| ings. The plane was damaged as It
reached the water and was unable
again to rise. While we were drifting
the 205 miles in the heavy storm the
thigh seas washed over or pounded tho
Iplane and the boat began to leak
$50 fast did the water enter that the
Imembers of the crew took turns in bail
ling the hull with a small hand-puml
while others stood on the wing in ordel
to keep the plane in balance Mean
while We were steering landward.

NO WINE: OR BEER
Congress Will Provide Enforcement of
Wartime Prohibition
Act.

WASHINGTON, May 2l.-Notwith-
standing President Wilson s recommen-
daton for repeal of wartime prohibition
in so far as If relates to wine and beer,
the opinion seemed to gain ground at
the capitol today that all repeal meas
ures would be kept in committee until
after July /. In the meantime, however,
prohibition leaders planned to enact
the legislation, which failed at the last
session, to enforce the war time prohi-
bition act and constitutional amend
ment.
Senator Shepard, Democrat, Of Texas,
author of the wartime act, said today
he was confident enforcement legisla-
tion would be passed before July |.
There was no disposition on the part
Of majority leaders, It was said, to
hasten consideration of a repeal meas
ure. The only apparent move was by
prohibition leaders who were outspokeu
in their opposition to the President :
recommendation. They let it be known
they would oppose any substitute liquor
bill and would make every effort to pre-
vent favorable committee action ON any
measure which would delay nationa
! prohibition.

GERMAN DENIAL
COMES TOO LATE
Premier Clemenceau Replies to German
Note Denying Responsibility for
the War.

PARIS, May 2l,-'It is too late for
Germany to seek to deny both aggression
in the war and her responsibility for it :"
This declaration is made by Premier Glenn
enceau as president of the peace confer
ence in replying to the German note on
reparation.
The argument put forth by Count Won
Brockdortf- Rantzau is that Germany did
not start a war Of aggression, that the
German people We're convinced they
fought a defensive war and that the pres
ent German government cannot be held
responsible for faults Of the former Ger
man government.
Premier Clemenceau declares that the
German government last November made
no protest against the charge in note
of Secretary Lansing that Germany wa,
the aggressor. The reply points out fur
ther that Germany made the French gov
ernment of 1871 and the Russian govern
ment of 1917 responsible for the acts o
the imperial regimes in France and Rus
| sia.

ST. LOUIS, May 2l.-President Wilson

needs of the world for food may be met,
and that the efficiency and morale of our
own people be preserved.
