NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-The opin-
ion that the attempt of Urban F.
Diteman Jr. TO fly from New
foundland to London ended in dis
aster a few hours after the take-off
Tuesday was expressed today by
Lewis N. Yancey, Maine to-Rome
flier.
Blind flying over the ocean espe-
cially with clouds and fog, is no sim
pie matter" Yancey said, "Diteman,
according to report, did not have
much more time in the air alto
gether than we required to learn
how to fly blind"
Yancy was referring to his prac-
tice with Roger Williams, his part
ner on the Pathflnder's Atlantic
fight.
when darkness overlook us, we
needed several times all the expert
ence and knowledge we gained in
our practice flight to keep on an
even keel" he said.
Although there still were rumors
holding out hope for Diteman'S
safety, none of them had received
any trace of verification today.

Holt objected to the two separate

Quest for Storm Victims in
Ferry Disaster Is Slow
Work.
BY RoBERT T. LOUGHRAN

InsteA FreSS stan correspondent
CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-The cold,
gray waters of Lake Michigan gave
up their prey stubbornly today, re-
linquishing one by one the bodies Of
the more than fifty sailors who went
down with the Grand Trunk car
ferry Milwaukee.
Bleak dawn saw airplanes winging
above the choppy waves through
which coast guard boats plowed in
the search for victims. No trace
had been found of the hulk of the
ferry, which was believed to have
slid under in a storm Tuesday
night.
Five bodies, including that of
Captain Robert Mckay, were known
to have been recovered. Others pos
sibly had been picked up by lake
craft or by landsmen along the
shores where breakers were casting
up wreckage torn from the ferry.
Coast guardsmen said they be-
lieved the Milwaukee foundered off
Wind Point, a peninsula which ex-
tends seven miles into the lake three
miles north of Racine, Wis. There
the storm struck with the most fury.
Waves crashed over the narrow neck
of land swirling over the top of
a twenty-foot lighthouse at the end
of the peninsula.
Twenty-seven loaded freight cars
were clamped along the four lines
of rails on the Milwaukee when the
big ferry headed into the storm
Tuesday afternoon. The cars prob
ably were thrown from their moor
ings by the tempest.
Once free, the cars proved batter
ing rams, tearing the ship to pieces
as it lunged and reeled under the
shock Of the racing waves. If
enough were loosened at once, they
capSized the ferry as If it had been
Shingle. No craft, however sturdy,
could have withstood the sudde::
rush of hundreds of tons to one
side, shippers declared.
1t was a heroic ending to Captain

WorIey to Act Following
Ruling of IIIegaIity
in Arrests.

Amendment of the model city
traffic code to give police authority
to arrest traffic violators On sight
will be sought by Police Chief
Claude M. Worley and City Prose
cutor Herbert M. Spencer.
Worley announced he would con-
fer with the city legal staff on the
ruling made Thursday by Municipal
Judge Paul C. Wetter holding it
illegal for police to arrest traffic
violators on twenty-four sections of
the city code.
The traffic ordinance provides for
issuance of a "sticker." ordering the
violator to appear at the police traf-
fic bureau within seyenty-two hours.
Wetter held that the police legally
could not make the arrest before
expiration of that period.
The ruling was given in the case
of Charles Brown of Jeffersonville
when Attorney Edward O. Snethen
filed a demurrer to the charge of
failure to stop at a preferential
street.
Must Have Authority
police must have some authority
if we are to cut down the accident
toll" declared Chief Worley in
reference to Wetter's decision.
1.-THE arrest of violators or issu
ance of a sticker for traffic offenses
must be matter left to the judg-
ment of the officer, who should be
governed by circumstances" Worley
declared.
IF we're going to control traffic
and stop this orgy of deaths we
must have authority to make proper
arrests. We can't cut the accident
toll if court sits up and encour-
ages such things. We've got to take
some action to stop careless driv-
ing"
O1en S. Hack. city corporation
counsel, began a study Of the ordi-
nance with the view of giving an
opinion to city council. Sections in
the code which are also in the state
motor law would be superseded by
the state statute. giving police au-
thority to ct%under the state law,
Hack said.
Up TO Council
This question of whether officers
should make arrests or give stickers
is clearly a legislative matter for
the city council to decide Hack
