| DEAD, 5 HURT
WHEN PLANE.
FALLS
Bomber Plunges 1000 Feet in
N. Y. Harbor, on Way to
Boiling Field.

NEW YORK, March 5.--Like a
meteor, a burning Martin bombing
plane. en- route to Boiling Field,
Anacostia, plunged from a height
of 1000 feet here near the Statue
of Liberty yesterday. causing the
death of one army officer, the prob
able fatal injury of another and
slight injuries to four enlisted men.
The officer who fell to his death
was First Lieutenant Stanley Smith,
thirty.eight years old, pilot of the
large machine. Fracture of the
skull and internal injuries caused
his death. He died at Kings
County Hospital
Fractures of both legs, internal
Injuries and Commissions of the head
and face were suffered by Maj.
Louis Bradley. forty-two years old.
At Bushwick Hospital, Brooklyn, 1t
was said that his condition is
critical.
In Capital Friday.
The plane arrived in Washington
last Friday on it's eastward trip
from Rantoul, Ill. On Its return
trip to it's home. field 1T was ex-
pected to arrive at the Capitol ABOUT
o'clock yesterday.
The four enlisted men In the
plane were Privates James Rochelle,
twenty; Robert Jaramillo, twenty
three; Jacob c.. Macdonald, twenty
one, and Robert Naughter, nine
teen. Minor bruises and lacera-
tions. Treated at Kings County
Hospital.
The direct cause of the accident
was the swapping of a crank SHAFT.
Immediately after the engine went
dead" Major Bradley began VOL
planning from a height of 5000.
Fought to Save Machine.
When at a height of about 1000
feet the twin engine went dead,
Major Bradley skillfully operated
the machine despite this handicap
until it had dropped within 800
feet of earth. Then it tilted and
dropped nose downward into muddy
flats. 1t is probably because of
its dropping into the mud that the
enlisted men escaped with minor
INJURIES. Both officers were pinned
beneath the machine.
The plane carried four student
mechanics who had finished their
course at Chanute field, from that
camp to Mitchell field. 1t was
intended to return with four others
who were to become student me-
chanics.

members took stock of the work of
Congress in the closing hours and
wrote their constituents what meas

Joyous scenes marked the closing
hours of the House session yester-

leaders, oongratulatory messages to
the members who will not reappear
in the next Congress, songs, and

and they were not interested in 1t.
Three or even four other progress
ives may squeeze into the committee
and they may know and care moth
ing about it, depending somewhat on
where they are from. But to expect
that six senators favorable to this
relief for the intermountain states
will be selected-perish the thought!
1t will not happen for the excellent
reason that they cannot be found.

Senator Key flttnidn , ietlei IA
last weeks issue of the White Pine
News holds out but Sigh. hope for
the passagesof a law against interior
railway discrimination. While the
senator writes hopefully he bases his
optimism upon the probable makeup
of the senate interstate commerce
committee after the new congress
shall have met and been organized.
that certain members of that commit
tee have been defeated for reelection
and the possibility that their sue
cessors upon the committee may be
more favorably disposed toward the
intermountain country.
Yet of the six members he names
as having been retired in the last
election three have been touted from
n end of the contry to the other,
times without number, as the real,
simon pure progressives, these being
Poindexter, Kellogg and Pomerene.
OF the others, Myers is from Mon
tana and surely should be favorable
to the sort of legislation under dis
cussion, which would leave but two,
Townsend and Frelinghuysen, who
would be expected to oppose justice
TO the people of the west in the mat
ter of railway rates.

be thinkable, but this time it would
be an exception, as would ninety
nine out of a hundred cases. The
trouble with the election system is
this particular one. One legislator
or other officer promises to do a
thing and falls down, then m a
successor who knows he can do it
and he falls down. A change has
been made and the subject of agita-
ton yer which 1t came about is for
gotten and it all is allowed to die.
The gamer is the mar who won an
office. The stockholders are the peo-
pie.
No m knows who will constitute
the next senate interstate commerce
committee. To look for La Follettes
and Brookharts to fill six vacancies
on this one committee would be like
looking for the impossible. It cannot
and will not happen. In the first
place, there are not enough La Fol-
lettes and Brookharts to go around,
and in the second place, as Mr.. Pitt

ests Of the country will have some
