From the fact that the schooner was
unmarked and the reticence of the
skipper, Major Smith inferred that she
was a liquor smuggler, many of which
have been reported on the Long Island
shore. He added that he had been told
the crew looked like Cubans.
Il have not read the entire story"
said Mr.. Parsons, "but 1 have read
enough to believe that an investigation
is necessary. 1t will be started at once
and we will complete it before we make
any reports"
The latest drama of the sea which
attracted nationwide attention when
the United States navy was directed to
assist in search for the plane, missing
for 43 hours, was full of action but the
story was told to the press not by the
pilot, mechanician and passenger who
figured in the trip, but by officials of
the company in prepared statement,
which told of the hardships they pre-
sumably encountered in fighting the
waves after they dropped into the sea
with motor trouble. Late Tuesday,
none of the trio had been located.

executives if all other peace advances
fail.
Rail Chiefs Silent
Heads of railway executives re-
fused to comment on the unexpected
arrival of the three eastern presi-
dents. Their return on the same boat
and in the midst of the present crisis
was admittedly significant, however,
especially since their respective vice
presidents have been the nucleus to
the group which in conference of the
national association consistently has
fought against any peace plan which
included reinstatement of strikers
with seniority rights unimpaired.
The decision of the steel corpora
tions to raise the wages of laborers,
announced just "a hours prior to the
scheduled meeting of the executives,
was hailed by the strikers as a point
in their favor. 1t not only justified
their refusal to accept wage cuts
fixed by the railroad labor board, they
said, but was ample proof of an i'm
pending industrial boom which would
put the railroads with their thousands
of bad order cars, more than ever in
need of their old repair forces.
This wage increase will put con-
siderable fire into the veins of rail-
road labor" declared David Williams,
secretary of the eastern strike COM
mittee. The railroad man will find it
hard to understand why he should get

the same work in the steel mills
'If the railroads don't settle with
the shopmen, it will be doubly doubt

A "Finish Fight7"
Rail heads refrained from discus
sion of the possible effects Of the
steel companies move on rail strike
negotiations. They were, neverthe-
less. quick to offer numerous reasons
why the steel industry should grant its
men a raise at this critical stage.
One was that some of the steel
bankers who also are
large investors in the railroads took
such means of making untenable the
position steadfastly maintained by the
eastern die-hards," headed by Mr..
[loree. that the strike be allowed to
continue as finish fight" rather

rights to the strikers.
