DISASTER PROBE
CLEARS CREW
Of. BLAME:
Shenandoah Inquiry Urges
to Continue Dirigible
Experimentation.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Jan. q
R)--The airship 8 enandoah. wreck
cd last September 8, over. Ohio. was
a victim of the storm which en-
compassed her'with no blame attach
ing to her personnel.
The naval court of INQUIRY has
made this report to Secretary Will
bur after exhaustive Investigation
into the accident which cost the lives
of the dirigible's commander, Lieuten-
ant Commander Zachary Lansdowne,
and thirteen other officers and MEM
bers of the crew. Final destruction
of the ship, the court concluded, was
due primarily to the effect of unbal-
anced forces arriving from high
velocity air currents" 1t regarded the
disaster as part of the price that
must inevitably be paid in the de-
velopment of any new hazardous
art" and urged the navy to give close
consideration to recommendations for
progressive development of lighter
than-air craft. ~
Freeing the airship's crew Of any
responsibility for the wreck, the court
was unable definitely to determine
whether minor damage to the hull
caused by excessive pressure on. the
helium cells was a determining fac
tor in the breakup Of the\ship. How
ever, it thought reduction of the num-
Der of automatic gas valves from Is
to s was negligible.
The court disagreed with the con-
tention Of Mrs. Margaret Ross Lans-
downe, the commanders widow, that
he had protested against making
flight because of weather conditions
and it disputed also the various
points stressed by William Mitchell
and Captain Anton Heinan, former
German dirigible pilot.
Regarding exhibition flights, how
ever, the courts report was that they
should be limited to essential naval
and military operations insofar as
possible but concerning the Shenan-
doah's fatal trip, it held that Com
mander Lansdowne was fully con-
suited and given every opportunity
to state his views.
The report added that the com
mander did not any time express op-
position or reluctance in undertaking
the flight beginning September %,
on the ground Of possible adverse
weather conditions.

MEXICO TO EXHIBIT
CHICKENS IN S. A

Poultry exhibits for the Lone Star
Poultry Show, to be held in San An
tonic january to 10, have been
promised by the chambers of commerce
of 30 Mexican towns. Fred W. Mally,
secretary of the agricultural depart
ment Of the Chamber of Commerce, an-
nounced Friday.
Poultrymen of San Antonio and
Mexico will make. an interchange of
choice breeds after the close of the
show, Mally said. Better relations
between poultry raisers in both coun-
tries should come about from this in
terchapge, Mally thinks.
Breeders have been requested to put
price tags on their exhibits at the
show, SO that those wishing to buy
may do so without undue delay.

one of the boys"
The "boys," the authorities interpret
the letter, were Golf and Stringham.
The letter closed with a protesta-
ton of love from the aged grandmother
to her middle-aged sutton: .
II do love you; do you love me?
"From your mother to her baby"
Goffs version of the Staying placed
the entire blame on Winn.
Tuesday afternoon 1 went to Mrs.
Nussbaum and got the keys of car,
Goff's confession, as given out by the
authorities, reads.
BLAMES VIM.
81 drove to Mrs. Martins house
and VIM was there. So was Mrs.
Martin. Pretty soon We saw the old
man hobbling along. Winn said we
might as well get him. wanted to
get away and started toward the back
door but VIM drew a pistol and told
me if 1 spoiled things he'd get me,
too.
II went to the garage to quiet the
dog and / didn't see what happened
until Winn called me to come back in.
He told me he had hit the old man
over the head and forced me to get a
pair of ice tongs and help him drag
the body to the attic"
There, Golf added, the body was
washed and dressed in new clothes.
As darkness fell the body was placed
in Nussbaum's automobile and taken
to the lonely prairie and hurled into
the snow. The clothes and towels in
which the body had been wrapped were
burned.
Mrs. Nussbaum exonerated her
grandson, Lloyd Nussbaum, from any
knowledge of the Staying.
