MY service among you," he de-
clared, has impressed me with the
responsibilities of every senator and
at the same time it has given me a
clear understanding of the duties
and obligations Of the vice-presi-

He is not one Of the makers Of
the law, nor is he consulted about
the rules adopted to govern your
actions. His obligations to the peo-
pie Of the country to whom he owes
his high position and his duty to
you senator's call for a fair and i'm
partial construction of the rules
which you. yourselves, have adopted
and which you alone may change.
His obligations and duties require
a recognition and application of the
DrecedentS which have brought the
United States senate to its present
recognized position of paramount
Importance as a legislative body"
Turning to his predecessor the
new vice-president expressed to
him appreciation. admiration and
esteem for his services.

BY RICHARD L. TURNER
ASSOCIATED Press Staff Writer.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-(P)-
Filled with the proud satisfaction of
one who has given the best Of his
years and talents to the service Of
his country, Calvin Coolidge today
came to the end Of his career in the
nations mightieSt office.
Happily, he turned toward North
ampton and the little haf-houSe
that in humber days was home.
Regretfully he parted from those
who have stood at his side in ad-
ministering the affairs OF a great
and powerful nation.
Often, Mr.. and Mrs. Coolidge have
talked of the time when it would
all be over and they could "go back
home" Today, they awaited only
the Inauguration Of the chief execu-
tive's successor before entraining for
Northampton and their desire to be
off was so great that they decided
to abandon the traditional practi-
ces of returning to the White House
for luncheon with the new president.
For their journey to Northamp-
ton the Pennsylvania railroad had
provided a private car.
When the question was put UP to
him directly whether or not MIR
Coolidge was going to write for the
American Magazine, Merle CroWell,
the publications editor, acknowledge
ed that a series of articles had been
contracted for. although he could
give no details.
It was learned that the articles
will deal with the human" side of
life in the White House.

Roaring his defiance to the last.
General Dawes brought back men,
cries of four years ago when he de-

senate was working as antiquated.
Curtis, in a good-natured talk, re-
minded the senate that it made It's
own methods Of procedure.
Il take back nothing" Dawes
shouted in a strident voice as lie
arose to administer the oath.
Herbert Hoover, about to be
sworn in as president. and Calvin
Coolidge, about to retire, joined the
other distinguished hosts in the
senate chamber in laughter and ap-
plauSe.
Fresh from twenty years service
in the senate Mr.. Curtis asserted
to his colleagues that the vice-pres-

CHANEC PLANS
FOR CANADIANS
Touring Group Unable To
Make Hidalgo County
Trip As Planned

Due to a technicality, which pre-
Vented the Southern Pacific from
complying with the amended
schedule arranged for the Borders
Chamber of Commerce, the Cana
dian group which arrived in the
Valley Saturday morning, was In
able to make the contemplated tour
Of Hidalgo county Sunday.
~The printed itinerary supplied to
those on the special train called for
a stop in Brownsville until Sunday
evening, and it was through un-
avoidable circumstances that the
amended schedule had to be aban-
doned Sunday morning" J. L. Win
ter, acting mayor of Windsor, On
tario, said. Letters will be sent to
the various chambers of commerce
III Hidalgo county explaining the
situation"
Failure to carry out the amend
ed itinerary was a great diSappoint-
ment to the Canadians as well as
residents of Hidalgo county. A
large number of cars were assem-
bled at Edcouch for the guests who
failed to arrive. The program for
the day included a trip over the
county with luncheon at ReynoSa.
Many Of the Canadians made the
tour Of the Valley in cars Sunday,
the train leaving Brownsville Sum
day night.
1T is very unfortunate that the
arrangements made by the Valley
secretaries could not be carried
out" MI. Winters said. 1--WE had
planned to see the entire Valley,
and many Of us did make a tour of
the entire section. We sincerely re-
greet that we were unable to meet
the Hidlago people who had assem-
bled at Edcouch with cars"
Officials of the Canadian organ
ization stated Sunday night before
their special train pulled out that
they wished to convey their thanks
and appreciation for the welcome
receivad in the Lower Valley, to
Mayor A. B. Cole, the chambers Of
commerce of Brownsville, San Be-
nito and Harlingen, and to the cit
liens of these cities and Cameron
county.
They called attention to the &C
ton of the Brownsville citizens who
came to their rescue Sunday when
it was Unexpectedly found that the
special train could not be sent to
Eocouch as planned.
Almost without notice, many cit
liens came with cars and carried
the goodwill trippers to Mata-
moros the Country club and to
Point Isabel.

10Th CONGRESS
IS AT ITS END
list Senate Immediately
Goes Into Action On
Special Act
By d. HAROLD OLIVER
Associated Press Staff Writer.)

tEhSo0AAbtSa oeNAA
WASHINGTON, March 4.-Pe
The record of the SEVENTEEN con-
gress has been made and written
into the great book Of law.
It's storms and tumultS were be-
hind it when 1t was called into SeS-
sion at the capitol today for a brief
perfunctory meeting before termi-
mating.
For most of the senators the day
held forth an immediate step from
the retiring congress to the new
the Seventy-firSt-fOr under spe-
cial proclamation Of President Cool
idge the senate Of the new congress
came into session at the moment
the old senate passed into history.
Looking ahead and with Herbert
HOover'S campaign promises in
mind, the old house, however, al
ready has prepared the way for leg
iSlating by the new congress on
these questions of tariff revision and
farm relief.
Following the first Sunday session
in six years, both houses were sum-
moned to meet earlier than usual
today, the house at 10 a. m, and
senate an hour later.
Few measures of Importance re-
manned to be acted upon at adj
journment. One doomed to die, and
strangely enough, m in which Mr..
Hoover has a real interest, was that
passed by the house yesterday by a
vote Of 100 to 153. 1t would post
pone for N year from July | the
placing in effect Of the national
origins clause of the immigration
act but it's chances Of becoming a
law faded in the senate where op-
ponents yesterday had a whip hand.
Under existing law Herbert Hoo
yer, as president, must sign an Or
der next month, placing the clause
in effect on July l. In his cam
paign he favored repeal Of the pro-
vision, which would revise the quota
restrictions in favor Of Great Brit
ain and northern Ireland at the
expense of Germany, Sweden and
Norway.

is said to have come Wien
Becker refused to take out life

christen 1t Pan American" in eX-
ercise1 at Kelly Field here today.
The captains projected departure
for Brownsville Saturday will fall
on the same day as the scheduled
official inauguration Of the Mexico
City-Brownsville airline and the
aviator may participate in the
ceremonies.
His takc-off from Brownsville on
the big attempt is planned for
about 4 a. m. Sunday, March 10
and he hopes to arrive in Colon
Panama, before dark. The distance
is 1920 miles.
The tiny plane, the army air
corps newest, christened the Pan
American for the purpose Of this
good will venture to Central Amer
lea, has a high speed Of 1873 miles
an hour and is the fastest fighting
plane yet developed for the army
air corps.
It's sleek streamlined body and
diminutiYe size stands out in direct
contrast to the Question Mark,
which Captain Eaker plotted OH its
long record-breaking flight over
southern California. The P-12 has a
wing spread only % feet as con-
traSted with the Question Marks
span of 80.
From nose to tail the speedy pur-
suit ship measures only 81 feet,
while the tri-motored Question
Mark vas more than 60 feet long.
The 450-horSepoWer engine in the
Pan-American represents the COM
blned power Of two of the three en-
gineS in the Question Mark. The
little plane is equipped with a SUI
per-charger which feeds air Of sea
level temperature and pressure into
the carburetor, thus inusring eff
cient engine performance at ex-
tremely high attitudes.
While the Question Mark main
tanned a cruising speed of from 70
to 80 miles an hour, the Pan Amer
lean will speed from Brownsville,
Tex, across Mexico and Central
America at from $50 to 155 miles an
hour.
Taking his cue from the lessons
learned during the Question Marks
cruise. Captain Eaker will not fol-
low the slow conventional process
of filling his tanks by pouring gas
oline through a funnel. A hand
wobble pump with a 90 foot hose on
the right side Of the cockpit will
make it possible to insert the hose
into drums Of gasoline and pump
the fuel directly into the tanks
aboard the plane. Since the pump
makes refueling possible at the rate
OF IS gallons a minute, Captain
EaEer will keep his engine running
and will be ready to take off within
three to four minutes after landing
at his five %refueling stops.
The 2,000-mile speed flight Is
being watched with considerable in
terest by cir corps experts who con-
slider defense Of the Panama Canal

the paramount problems Of national
defense.
The 15-hour flight will be across
territory that Captain Eaker has
covered on two other flying mis-
sIons: the Pan-American good will

trip Of Mai. Gen. James T. Fechet.
