This became known late today
after a White House conference be-
tween the president and Senator
McNary Of Oregon, chairman of the
committee, who visited the execu-
tive offices at the request Of Mr..
Hoover some hours after the presi-
dent had had nearly an hours talk

rotary of State Stimson and Foreign
Minister BRAND of France are giving
their attention to the Russian Chinese

The government has been kept in
formed through the press. but 1t Is
understood that the only official mes
sages on the subject quoted Washing
ton newspapers of Saturday morning
on Secretary Stimson's press conference
Friday afternoon. On account of this
situation, therefore, it is stated that
the japanese official attitude is that no

ton whether any such move actually
has been made.
The foreign Office spokesman today
professed to be mystifled by Washing

doubt whether communications really
have been made to Russia and China,
adding that if the reports are true
Secretary Stimson and Foreign Min

that might be interpreted as represent
ing American initiative. 1t is stated
here there is confidence that any Amer

refueling endurance flights, Dale Red"
jackson and Forest OBrine in their
st. Louis Robin, slowly were circling
over ST. Louis airport today, passing
their 218th hour at 9:l7 am, central
standard time.
The Missouri Robin, second Of two
sister endurance planes to go aloft at
Lambert-St Louis Field in an attempt
to set a new record for sustained flight.
landed at 7:5l am. today, after hav-
ing been in the air lit hours 20
minutes.
A leaky oil line which they were
unable to repair forced the flyers, Joe
Hammer and w. Gentry Shelton, to
bring the plane to earth.
The ten days in the air found Jack
son and O'Brine optimistic in their
notes, Red" being given Sunday of
by his partner, as the latter caught six
hours sleep in one stretch. Refuellng
contacts were being made with regu-
larity and good flying weather held
throughout the time in the air.
Jackson and O'Brine took of from
Lambert-St. Louis Field at 7:l7 am. on
Saturday, July l3, and 1t wasn't until
they had been in the air more than
100 hours they announced their try for
the record-to stay aloft while engine,
plane and pilots held out.
Hammer, air mail pilot, and Shelton,
st. Louis flying enthusiast, expressed
keen disappointment when they land
ed at Lambert-St. Louis Field. They
said the leak in the oil line, which de-
veloped this morning, threw oil over
the windows of the cabin, making II
impossible for them to see: They land
ed safely under extreme dif1iculty.
Hammer and Shelton left at 1898
am. on Wednesday, July II, and Smell
ton experienced a slight attack OF air
sickness" On the second day. The pro-
peller of their plane severed the re-
fueling hose on one of the early con-
facts. otherwise the dual record at
tempts have been uneventful.
A crowd estimated by officials at So
900, larger than the one which greeted
Lindbergh on his return from Paris,
watched the planes soar yesterday.
With a new record the flyers are as
sured of getting at least 81 an hour for
their time in the air. Former Mayor
Henry w. Kiel, president of the Mu-
nicipal Opera, made the promises.
