BULLETIN - SEATTLE, May 30.-BrOwne started his projected flig h t to Japan early this afternoon and went down in flames in Elliott Bay.
 $ E A TT l. E., May 30.- Nathan C. Browne made a re- fueling practice flight t h is morning, then came down for more repairs to his plane. Owing to the hard time in hopping off from his short runway, with a heavy load of gasoline, Browne intends to refuel in the air before start ing for Tokyo.
 SEATTLE, May 30.-Nathan O. wne, commercial flier, who hopped off Sunday morning at 5:20 o'clock on his projected nonstop flight to Tokyo, Japan, returned to Seattle after flying about seven hours, due to a broken oil line and broken rudder control which caused the ship to vibrate badly. 1 Browne said the oil line was broken as he was cruising north ward near the north end of Van couver Island to the west He said he was preparing to turn north west toward the Aleutians when the line broke and he was blinded for a while by hot oil and almost crashed because he was flying low. The rudder control wire was broken when the tail assemblage raked a tree as he was trying to climb after leaving the Boeing Field.
 Great Circle Route Browne's route takes him from Seattle over the Great. Circle steam ship lane to Dutch Harbor, Alaska, thence westward and down the Kuriles Islands to Japan and | Tokyo.
 | Browne must be enroute today to win the $30,000 purse offered for the first flight from Seattle to Jaapn, nonstop.
 Browne hopped at 5:20 Sunday morning and one hour later was reported over the steamer Admiral Rogers, 15 miles out.
 Throttle Wide Open Browne hurled his plane down the ramp at the Boeing Field with the throttle wide open and with only four mile head wind for the takeoff. He took the whole run way and was only about one foot off the ground at the margin lights, threaded trees and buildings ahead.
 Browne disappeared in the mist and went towards Tacoma, then circled back over Puget Sound. Good weather was reported along the route.
 The pilot barely skinned the trees and buildings south of the field and hundreds of automobiles swarmed after him fearing a crash. Plane Is New Model Weather beaten pilots at Boeing Field down to the greasy wiper boys have been attracted like iron to a magnet by Browne's plane, the Lone Star It is a specially constructed Fokker monoplane.
 Innovations never before seen in Seattle were studied at first hand and affirmative and negative head shaking accompanied discussion of the ship and it's equipment by mechanics.
 Perhaps the most interesting ex- ternal feature of the great plane. aside from it's 300-h sepower Wright Whirlwind J-6 motor and 50-foot wingspread. is it's detach- able landing gear. which Browne

PATMAN ASSA|LS
USE OF SOLDIERS
Demands Hoover Call Troops
to Drive Banking Lobby
From Capital.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press,
TEXARKANA, Tex, July 29.-De-
manding to know when the President
adopted the policy of using the Army
to drive lobbyists from the Capital,
Representative Wright Patman Demo
crat, Texas, leader of the fight for the
cash bonus payment in Congress, sug-
gested in a statement today that PreSl-
dent Hoover use the troops to drive
"the international banking lobby from
Washington.
Il did everything l could" he said,
Ito discourage the war veterans In the
march on the Capital.
However. 1 think it is shame
that the United States is the only
country in the world that is allow
ing war veterans to die from starvation
on the steps Of its Capitol. Every
other country that engaged IN the
World War is caring for its veterans.
There is no incentive for the war
veterans to return home, even though
the fight for the bonus payment has
been temporarily lost The veterans
figure they might as we'll starVe in
Washington as go home and starve
They have no jobs, their homes are
gone. they have no money, so What is
in store for them?"

as spectators and chose the bridge
as the place giving the best view
of the operations within Camp

The crowd scattered mostly to
the AnacCstia Park, opposite the
bonus camp, and the mild breeze
which blew the tear gas fumes
down over the fats caused acute
discomfort for nearly half an
hour.

One of the bonus rnarchers had a gay
but brief game CT volley ball with
cavalryman when troops swooped down
on the Pennsylvania avenue encamp-
ment yesterday. A tear gas bomb served
as the ball
When a trooper hurled a bomb into
the midst Of one group. an agile vet
eran caught it in a basket. Quick as
flash he tossed it back, narrowly miss
ing the troopers head. The game was
short-lived. however. A charge sent
him scurrying away with the others
A colored veteran conceived the idea
of testing the troopers patriotism.
Grabbing a big American flag, he
paraded before a long line of Cavalry
standing guard Two of the troopers
brought their saberS up in salute. The
others remained at attention.
A few seconds later the veteran was
routed as the command to charge was
given.
Another group of veterans dared" a
column of Infantry to fire on the
American flag.
The veterans, riding in an automo-
bile, carried the flag, prominently dis
played by a colored man riding on a
running board. The soldiers halted the
bonus car, threatening to cut the tires
with bayonets
The march continued with a squad
of Infantry between the rear OF the
column and the bonus car. At the
next intersection. police diverted the
car down a side street.
In the melee at Maryland avenue and
Four-and-a-half street southwest stood
Senator Bingham of Connecticut
Ar Infantryman tossed a tear gas
bomb and the Senator, in palm beach
suit and panama hat, scampered with
the rest of the crowd, hastily wiplng
his eyes.
His artificial leg propped against the
wall beside him. L. M. Miller, Reading,
Pa, veteran, defied police to evict him
from the second story of an abandoned
building He dared them to carry him
bodily from the premises. They didn't.
An onlooker persisted in shouting at
the soldiers: The American flag means
nothing to me after this"
Gen. Douglas Macarthur, chief OF
staff of the Army, approached and said:

his mouth again" The man closed up
like clam.

SPOKANE, Wash, July 29.-Henry

situation of the bonus seekers in Wash

"The American Legion gave me a
mandate at the Detroit convention" he
said last night, ito the effect that the
Legion would not at this time seek pay
ment of the bonus. Therefore, the Le-
gion is 'disassociated from the bonus
marchers at Washington.
Il have not had time to familiarize
myself with events, which seem con-
cerned with gas bombs, bayonets, tanks
and Cavalry. Perhaps the coming con-
vention at Portland, Greg, Will commit
itself on the bonus question. Already
we have several petitions for and against

A kind-hearted police lieutenant
bought Is gallons of milk this morning

ger today, however, that his charitable
act would be wasted. for the few re-
naming veterans at Camp Marks had
no means of getting the milk to Camp
Bartlett. where many of the women
and children sought refuge from tear

Salvaging operations were conducted
haphazardly at best last night as flames

his bed, an icebOX and phonograph.

particularly hostile toward reporters.
