Sherman Burns was fined $1,000.
Hoover said the record showed the

approached by the Burns operatives,
declaring this was in conformity with
orders from their employers. He con-
tended the Supreme Court had ruled
there could be no contempt without

Coolidge Indicates
He Will Take Long
Trip After March 4

President Coolidge has indi-
Gated to White House callers that
he intends to take a we'll earned
period of rest after his term ex-
pires March 4, in the form of
long-desired trip with Mrs. Cool
idge to the Southwest.
He has a number of invitations
under contemplation, the latest
having been extended today by
Senator Bratton, Democrat, of
New Mexico, who called to invite
the President to visit the famous
Carlsbad Caverns in his State
some time during April or May.
The President has made no de-
cision in connection with any of
these invitations. He is thinking
about going to Arizona in March
to dedicate the Coolidge Dam,
and If he decides to go, it is
probable he may visit a number
of places in the Southwest.
Senator Mayf1eld of Texas has
asked him to attend the meeting
of the West Texas Chamber of
Commerce in Ell Paso in May.

Senate Amendments Ap-
proved After Attempt Is
Made to Revise Measure.
BRITTEN BLOCKS MOVE
TO PERMIT SUSPENSION
Naval Chairman Refuses Floor to
Huddleston, Who Urges President
Be Given Stay Power.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The naval construction program call
ing for is cruisers and one airplane
carrier was sent to President Coolidge
today with House approval of Senate
amendments.
The amendments were accepted after
an unsuccessful attempt had been made
to revise the measure to give the Presi-
dent authority to suspend building OF
the cruisers If an agreement should be
reached between principal nations to de-
fine the rights of belligerents and neu-
trails at sea.
Representative Huddleston, Democrat,
Alabama. proposed the change. but
Chairman Britten of the House naval
committee refused to yield him the
floor to permit the amendment to be
offered.
Coolidge Opposes Time Clause.
The measure, last of the major pro-
posals of the Coolidge administration,
directs that the Is cruisers and aircraft
carrier be laid down before July /, 1881.
President Coolidge has opposed reten-
ton of the time limit stipulation, but
has been represented as friendly to the
bill in its present form.
The most important Senate amend
ment calls for the negotiation OF
treaties with foreign nations to define
the rights of neutrals at sea during war
Under another amendment the Navy
would be authorized to purchase such
equipment and materials from CONNER
cial shipbuilding yards as are not man.
ufactured by the Navy. Eight of the
cruisers are to be built in navy yards
and the remainder in private plants.
The measure was first on the
House program today, and Chairman
Britten had prepared a motion propoS-
ing unanimous adoption Of these two
amendments.
House Ready to Speed Action.
Britten, one of the bf's sponsors, had
expected no objection to his proposal
but House leaders had arranged to meet
any dissenting voices by having ir
readiness a special rule to make the
Britten motion in order without debate
Plans to have. work begin on some
of the cruisers called for in the bill ere
also under way in the House.
Mr.. Britten said yesterday he was
confident that the President would
sign 1t.
"It is true that the President has in
dicated his opposition to the time limit
In the bill. It is also true that he has
indicated his desire for an immediate
appropriation to begin building these
ships. In the light of all that has trans
pired, do not believe the President will
look unfavorably upon the BILL" Mr.
Britten said.

CITY HEADS FAVOR
.CRAMTON PARK BILL
Report Approving Great Prof
ect Prepared for Budget
Scrutiny.

The District Commissioners have
prepared favorable report on the
Cramton bill for the purchase Of park
lands for the District, and the report
will be submitted to the Budget Bureau
today or tomorrow, with an inquiry as
to whether the $l6,0oO,o0o expenditure
called for in the bill is in conflict with
the financial program Of the President.
Representative Cramton of Michigan,
the sponsor of the bill, called on the
Commissioners this morning and was
closeted with them for more than an
hour.
After the conference. Engineer Com
missioner William B. Ladue, under
whose jurisdiction the bill comes. said
that Mr.. Cramton had argued at length
in favor of the bill. which provides for
the advance to the District by the Fed
eral Government of $16,000,000 for pur-
chase of park and playground land. the
money to be repaid to the Treasury
in $1,000,000 annual installments. Mr.
Cramton pointed out that land for
Washington's parks could be bought
cheaper by getting it now, and that in
certain cases delay in acquiring the
land where building operations are go
ing on would absolutely prevent its ever
being secured for park purposes.
The bill has the support of the
Federation of Citizens Associations and
the Citizens Advisory Counsel. Lieut..
Col U. c. Grant,3d, executive officer
of the National Capital Park and Plan
min gCommission, recently called upon
the Commissioners and urged their sup
port of the bill.
Until today. however, the stand that
the Commissioners would take was not
known. Col. Ladue said that as a re-
suit of the conference with Mr.. Cram
ton few changes in the language Of
the letter of transmittal to the Budget
Bureau would be made, but indicated
that decision to approve the bill had
been reached before the Michigan
Representative called.

He Will Carry Mail on
Return Hop.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PANAMA, February 7.-Col. Charles
A. Lindbergh was guest today aboard
the u S. S. Saratoga, airplane carrier
while that ship participated in maneu-
vers of the Pacific feet.
He will return here tomorrow, and
prepare for departure Sunday on a re-
turn flight to the United States. This
will reverse the route of his fight from
Miami, Fla, which ended yesterday at
4 pm. at Cristobal.
Col. Lindbergh's visit aboard the Sar-
atoga was by special arrangement and
in compliance with desire of naval
authorities that he be taken along to
give his opinion on naval air problem.
To attend the maneuvers he few
across the Isthmus last night from Cris-
tobal to Panama, where he boarded the
Saratoga.
Official quarters were somewhat at sea
as to whether he would take mail back
with him to the United States.
More than 10000 letters are ready for
the return flight, but advices were re-
ceived from Ricardo Alfaro. Minister at
Washington, that the post Office depart
ment had informed him 1t had been
planned on this trip to carry mail only
from the United States.
Despite this, government authorities
continued plans to send mail back to
the United States aboard the plane.
Col. Lindbergh delivered $50 pounds
of mail to the authorities at France
Field, and then had his old troubles
with cheering crowds repeated. The
crowds massed around his plane and 1t
was only with difficulty he was able
to make his way among them.
He reported excellent weather and
flying conditions on the trip yesterday.
Stops were made at Puntarenas, Costa
Rica, David (Panama) and Panama
City. He arrived at his destination on
time to the minute.

mittee conducting the contest of John
D. Rockefeller, jr.. to oust Col. Robert
w. Stewart from the craftsmanship of
the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana, an
nounced today that proxies for 81 per
cent of the voting stock were assured
to the Rockefeller forces.
The Aldrich statement follows:
winthrop w. Aldrich of the firm of
Murray, Aldrich & Roberts, member
Of the proxy committee consisting of
Mr.. John D. Rockefeller, jr.; Mr.. VIII
liam Roberts and Mr.. Aldrich himself,
which is soliciting proxies to be voted
at the annual meeting of the Standard
Oil Co. of Indiana, against the re-elec-
ton of Col. Robert w. Stewart as a
director of the company, announces that
his committee now has in hand proxies
representing 81 per cent of the stock
of the company"
The annual meeting of the Indiana
company at which the battle of the
proxies will be waged takes place a
month from today.
Rockefeller asked Stewart to resign
on the ground that he felt Stewards
testimony in the Senate Teapot Dome
investigation tended. to weaken public
confidence in the company. Stewart re-
fused, although Rockefeller said Stewart
had previously promised to withdraw
any time Rockefeller asked him to, and
then the contest for the balance of
power at the election was begun.
Rockefeller Is in Egypt, but has kept
in close touch by cable with the COM
mittee he appointed to obtain proxies
from stockholders.
Statement Is Answered.
An hour after the Aldrich statement
had been issued there came one from
the Stewart faction discounting claims
made by Mr.. Aldrich. It was made pub
lie by George K, Bowden, Col. Stewards
representative here, and asserted:
This fight is not going to be won
by statements appealing tor bandwagon
support. It will be won by votes on
March T."
Mr.. Adrich states" said Mr.. Bowden,
that the Rockefeller proxy committee
has proxies representing more than 81
per cent Of the stock Of the Standard
Oil Co. of Indiana.
1T is obvious that Mr.. Aldrich cannot
be sure of what they have. First, he
has no knowledge Of changes in owner
ship Of stock on the books of the COM
pany. Second, he has no record of the
revocations of his proxies. Third, of
course, he has no way of determining
the number of revocations that are be-
ing made and will be made between
now and March T."

7.-A "hoodoo" that trailed Martin
Jensen from the time he took off yes
terday in an attempt to break the solo
endurance flight record finally forced
him down at 2:10 this morning with
less than half his goal achieved.
In the Bellanca monoplane Green

35 hours and Is minutes established by
the late Royal Thomas. He took off at
9.04:05 am. yesterday in the face OF
adverse weather conditions and at the

II hours, minutes.
He declared the combination of ice
and rain that he had faced all day and
night caused him to give up the at
tempt.
A minor break in gasoline pipe, the
breaking of the thermostat and the bad
weather caused him considerable an
noyance. When gallon earthen jug
of water crashed to the floor of the
cabin, sending fragments of the jug
into his eyes, he decided he had
enough.
1t was Jensen's second failure in an
attempt to set an endurance record. A
week ago he was forced down by an
overheated engine after two hours In
the air.
