The Severa Company, which owns
the Junkers plane, planned to make
the flight tandem one if they sue
cecded. A second plane was to fol
low in its tracks, in order to dem
,onstrate the company belief in the
feasibility of regular Transatlantic
air service via the Azores and New
Foundland-ad admitted by experts to
be the most practicable route.

in a speech here last night by Con-
gresham Louis G. Champion of

Receivers Refuse
Bennett's Demands
To Release Him
Ry United Press Lessed Wire

LOS ANGELES. Oct. 1.-The
possibility of restoring harmony be-
tween Jack bennett and the federal
receivers sfor the Julian Petroleum
Corporation grew dim today when
asserted demands made by Bennett
in offering his assistance in recov-
ering millions of dollars in usurious
interest were revealed by receivers.
According to the statement issued
by Joseph Scott and II. l.. Carnahan,
Bennett S stipulation was that the
receivers release him and his rela-
tives from all claims in connection
with their transactions with the oil
company.
Refusal to make such a settlement
with Bennett was based on the views
of the receivers as we'll as on the
advice of Federal Judge Paul j.
Mccormick, according to Scott and
Carnahan. Judge Mccormick has
been handling all matters in the re-
ceivership proceedings.
The open war between Bennett
and the receivers was declared when
they charged he had failed to make
good on his promise to aid in the
recovery of $1,000,000 a week.

Senator Applies "Short
and Ugly Word" to Illi-

ADDRESSES L A B O r
Declares Madden Is Hid
ing Real Reason for OPP
position to Dam Bill.
BY United Press LeaSed Wire

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4.-Declar-
ing that there was but one way in
which to characterize a statement
attributed to Chairman Madden, and
that was with Fshort and ugly
word,' Senator Hiram johnson to-
day answered reports that he and
Herbert Hoover had entered into a
"deal.'
"It seems incredible that a man
of Madden s experience should have
INDUCED in such arrant nonsense
and downright Justification, John
son declared in reply to an assertion
that the California senator traded
his presidential support to Hoover
for Boulder Dam backing.
eff he said what is attributed to
him there is but one way to char
acterize it and that is with the
short and ugly word and the whole
thing is a mighty thin smoke screen
to hide the real reason that Madden
is opposed to the Boulder Dam pro-
ject,' johnson declared. President
Green said that labor's representa-
tives had come to regard Johnson
as "fearless and heroic advocate
of human rights"
Following a vigorous defense of
the direct primary, Senator John
son launched into his attack on the
"power trust' declaring that every
kind of publicity was being utilized
against the proposed dam on the
Colorado river in every section of
the country.
In speaking of the direct primary
johnson declared that powerful in
terests were trying to wipe it out
and because certain men have tried
to debauch the direct primary argu-
ments were being made to return to
the "old convention system under
which the purchase of political pow
er is easier and cheaper.'
Defends Primary
He urged the representatives of
organized labor to resist s'the con-
centrated attack being made upon
the direct primaries' and to oppose
any effort "to loosen the people IS
control of the instruments of gov
ernment, including the courts"
One of the authentic features of
the session of the federation was
the receipt of an invitation from
New Orleans and Columbus, Ohio,
to hold next years convention in
those cities.
1t is understood that Lakeland,
Florida, headquarters of the Inter
national Brotherhood of Carpenters
and Joiners, will also extend an in

Important resolutions which have
been referred to various committees
are to be acted upon at today's

tions of policy regarding the re-

ton of negro workers, an amend

Sues Government
By United Press Leased Wire

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 4. - Mrs.
Alice GRAY Kales, former stockhold-
or in the Ford Motor Company, who
sold out to Henry Ford in 1919 when
the latter acquired majority control
of the organization, today won an
important point in her suit to re-
cover from the government $2,627,
800 paid in excess income tax.
Federal Judge Ben c. Dawkims of
Monroe, La, handed down a decis-
ion that the government could not
revise its own valuation of stock
for income tax purposes. In this
ease the government furnished a
valuation of the stock to determine
the amount assessable and subse-
quently revised the valuation down
wards. making the taxable profits
greater.
Mrs. Kales paid under protest and
started suit to recover. Other stock
holders, including Senator James
Couzens and the odge estate. did
not pay but appealed to the United
States Board of Tax Appeals before
which their eases are pending.

FORBES FIELD, PITTSBURGH,
Pa, Oct. 4.-One of those accidents
which may prove a turning point
in the 1927 world series occurred
this afternoon while the New York
Ianks were going through their
batting practice on the eve of the
opening game.
Herb Pennock, star left handler
of the American League champions,
was struck just above the left knee
cap by line drive from the bat
of Cedric burst, a substitute outfield-
er. ~i%ss
A blood vessel in Pennock's leg
, was ruptured by the blow and a
slight hemOrrhage resulted.
The New York club physician who
immediately attended Pennock said
that the inflammation fortunately
was spreading upward instead of
downward to the knee cap.
The ball struck Pennock an inch
and half above the knee cap,
otherwise the injury probably would
have kept him out of the world
series altogether.

Hot Words At
Denver Parley
By ARTHUR DE GREvE
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

DENVER, Colo, Oct. 4.-Hopes
that harmony would mark the clos
ing sessions of the Seven State Col
orado River Compact were dispelled
here today when it was learned hot
words would be tossed about over
the Pittman estates Rights' res
olution in the afternoon session.
California has opposed the meas
ure bitterly since its introduction.
Any attempt on the part of the six
states to pass it over her objections
may end in the California delega-
ton s withdrawal from the confer
ence, it was rumored.
From reliable sources it was
learned the California commission
was not in complete accord. Chair
man John L. Bacon and Earl C.
Pound are unalterably opposed to
the principles contained in the
measure branding them as being
Revolutionary"
On the other hand, w. B. Math.
ews of the California delegation, ia
vors those principles as being bene-
ficial to the entire state regardless
of the attitude of the Southern Cal
ifornia and Imperial Valley repre-
sentatives.
Rumors persisted that after the
afternoon session is concluded an
other recess will be taken, the con-
ference reconvening at Sacramento
or San Francisco. Governor Adams,
it was learned, will invite the del
egates back to Denver again.
The lower basin states are report
ed to be so closely agreed on the
water and power sessions that an
agreement can be reached in a few
weeks.

SURVEY REVEALS
NEEDS OF CITY
Report Shows Absence Of
Several Badly Needed
Institutions.

Startling facts concerning Ell Cen
tro' s social needs and community
deficiencies were presented at the
fall meeting of the FL Centro Com
munity Service council held at the
Barbara Worth hotel yesterday.
Representatives of the 28 different
civic and service organizations com
posing the council were in attend
ance at the gathering, which marked
the first birthday of the organiza-
ton.
OF outstanding importance in the
survey submitted was the fact that
Imperial county has 81 young delin
quents, and no delinquent home, in
spite of the fact that such home
is required by state law. At pres
cnt these eases are being handled
in the institutions of other counties
where the young people are being
'boardcd out and in private
homes. Sixteen of the total number
are in private homes, while state
ments made by Probation Officer
J.. ID. Griffin revealed that there
are five or six young delinquents
here at the present time for Whom
no places can be found
Next on the list, which comprised
a. summary of the survey of the
mental, moral, physical and spiritual
state of the youth of the community,
vas the reminder that the city has
no mothers or childrens' clinic.
That there are no adequate facili-
ties for training the mentally handi-
capped child was next emphasized.
The violations of Sections %, 80
and 81 of the California state hous-
ing act which are found in the East
side residence district were also
considered.
Need Recreation Grounds
1t was further pointed out that
oil violations of the law reported Il
Gainst minors are committed be-
tween the hours of 8 p. M. and mid
night, and during vacation periods,
thus showing the need for supervised
public recreation places to turn the
young delinquent S energy into other
channels.
Reporting for the Kiwanis Clue,
ID. b. Roberts, its president, stated
that his organization is strongly in
