Falls telegrams in reply, saying he would be glad to hear the plan, went into the records.

NEW TARIFF MEASURE IS
 NEW SCHEME
Senator Borah Submits Plan for Early Disposal
 of Measure

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Senate leaders gathering to work out some means of ending the tariff debate are confronted with ready made resolution which its author, Senator William E. Borah. claimed will bring the measure to final vote within Ia short space of ten days.
 Senator Borah's plan however, is one to which Senator Shoot and Republican sponsors of the bill could hardly agree.
 Senator Borah called for uncon- ditional equalization to the group of independent Western Republi- cans and it's firm intention of re- writing measure "in accordance with the purpose for which the spe- cial session was called" regardless of time it takes. He said the in- dependents determine to stick dog gedly to their task of producing a bill they consider fair to the agri- cultural industry.

 Most of the time, however, re- ception is good and programs arc received from stations in nearly every part of the world during the fall and winter. Because of the remarkable reception conditions in the Arctic she has written to the federal radio commission suggest ing the establishment of an experi- mental station in Alaska.

 from Moscow

SEATTLE, Oct. 14-After a To- hour flight from Waterfall, Alaska, the Russian plane Land of Soviets, arrived at Seattle yesterday after noon at 5:27 o'clock.
 Coming south from Alaska, the plane took the outside route, along the westward coast of Vancouver Island, and down the Strait of Juan de Fuca, a distance of about 645 miles.
 The aviators on arrival here were quickly engulfed in a surging mob, after the welcoming ceremony con- ducted by Dr. Karl Tiffin and Will liam G. Mckay, in behalf of Gov. R. H: Hartley, and Mayor Frank Edwards. The welcoming cere- mony was cut short by the milling crowd. The crowd was ordered to stand back to permit of photogra- phers to take pictures. The Russians were hurried to the Olympic Hotel where headquarters were established.
 The dusk of a fall night was pre- vailing when the plane arrived, but there was sufficient light to permit the plane to make a suc- cessful landing. There was a ter rife jam at the airbase.
 Commander Shestakov announced that a conquest of the Atlantic may be sequel to the Pacific flight, and such a trip would be a non- stop flight from New York to Paris. thence to Moscow, completing q journey around the world.
