Lindberghs Are Tossed Into Turbulent Yangtse
 Stream NARROWLY ESCAPE FATE OF THOUSANDS Pliers Rescued by British Air Carrier Crew
 Flight Plans

HANKOW, China, Oct. 2.-Thrown into the turbulent waters of the Yangtse River when their plane capsized, Col. Charles A. Lindbergh and Mrs. Lindbergh narrowly es- capad the fate overtaken by thou sands of Chinese during the recent weeks.
 The plane upset when one wing struck the water as Col. Lindbergh was turning about preparatory to taking off on flood survey flight.
 The two were tossed into the swift stream while wearing their cumbersome flying togs but were rescued by lifeboat crew from the British aircraft carrier Hermes.
 The accident halted the flood survey flights.
 The Lindberghs planned to go to Shanghai within few days anyway to get their plane in shape for the next phase of their flight.
 Indications are the Lindberghs will fly to Europe by way of Southern Asia.

 VIA VICTORIA
ARC. President Going to Capital to Appear Be-

Enroute to Washington, D. C., to attend hearings before the United States Buraeu of Budget on the Alaska Road Commission and Riv- CTS and Harbors items in the War Departments annual supply bill, Mai. Malcolm Elliott, President of the Alaska Road Commission and United States District Engineer, left here last night on the steamer Admiral Rogers for Seattle.
 Enroute to the East he will go to Victoria, B. C., to visit his daugh- ter, Miss Stewart, who is attending school there. He. also, expects to meet E. w. Sawyer there and with him meet with Canadian members of the International Highway Con- mission for a discussion of that project.

 During his absence from here, Maj. L. E. Atkins, Engineer Of- ficer of the Road Commission, will be in charge of that organization. He and Assistant Engineer Ike P. Taylor returned here early this week after spending most of the summer in interior and northern Alaska.

Experiment stations were started at Sitka, Ke- mai, Copper Center and Rampant in the order named. In 1901 it was
