SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 13. UH
Concluding its hearing into the
official conduct of Federal Judge
Harold Louderbaek without the
testimony of the jurist, members of
the sub committee of the house ju-
dietary committee today planned to
return to Washington to prepare
their report to the full committee.
After hearing U. S. Senator SAM
uel Shortridge, who recommended
the appointment of Judge Louder
back, tell his reasons for sponsor
ing the jurist's appointment, the
committee adjourned last night af-
ter Judge Louderback declined to
testify.
James NJ. Hanley, counsel for the
juriSt, read a statement to the COM
mittee which said:
Judge Louderback feels that no
testimony introduced requires a
statement by himself at this time.
Taking everything as true. then
there is nothing to answer"
Representatives F. H. LaGuardia,
New York, and Gordon Browning,
Tennessee, who acted as questioners
at the hearing, urged Hanley to
have his client submit to question
ing. Hanley refused. 1t was then
decided to adjourn the hearing.

Browning and Hatton Summers,
Texas, who conducted the hearing
into the allegations that Judge
Louderback granted excessive fees
and showed favoritism in receiver
ships, amounting to alleged NAL

(Copyright, 1882. by United Press

ABOARD LORD TALBOT, sept.
13. CVia Reykjavik radio to United
Press)-We found the plane OF the
Hutchinson family at l a. m. today
with all eight well, including the
two little Hutchinson girls.
The plane was total wreck. Be-
cause of the darkness and the sea,
we were unable to effect an imme-
diate rescue of the passengers put
planned to do so without difficulty
as soon as possible.
We came upon the wrecked plane
after searching for it through the
ice floes since Sunday afternoon.
We had arrived at the fishing
grounds off Angmagssalik at 1880
D. m, Sunday. We Immediately
picked up an SOS from Hutchin-
sons airplane via the Angmagssa-
hk radio, giving the position as
65.28 north, 38.45 west, not far
south of Angmagssalik.
We steamed there Immediately
under full pressure but failed to To-
cate them. We continued searching
after dark, aided by our powerful
searchlight.
The numerous icebergs made
night work difficult. In addition
to being a constant threat to our
safety, they were easy to mistake
for a plane. At intervals we sent
up rockets but got no reply.
From daylight to noon, Monday,
Greenwich time, we covered 30
miles, searching the coastline. We
saw the Mountard and Star OF
Victory off Cape Dan. Shippers
Campbell and Smith decided to
join us in searching. They took up
positions six miles and seven miles
apart from us and we steamed
parallel courses for 55 miles.
Darkness had just fallen Monday
when we sighted a flare right
astern. We made for it at full
speed, working the searchlight.
Soon we encountered an icefield,
however, and warned the other
ships by radio.
We navigated slowly for eight
miles through the treacherous ice
toward the distress signal position
and at / a. m. today the light was
abeam.
We queried by radio and got
reply from Hutchinson that all was
we'll. We launched a boat imme-
diately. carrying the mate and
crew of five.
The boat returned at 2:15 a. m,
the mate and Hutchinson having
decided there was too much swell
to permit a rescue in the dark.
am pleased to report we will
get them all at daylight today. The
plane is a total wreck
The above dispatch from Captain
Watson was filed from the Lord
Talbot at 4:30 a. m. today. Be-
cause Of the length of time taken
in transmission, it is believed that
after it was sent from the ship, the
Hutchinson party was rescued.

HURLEY REPLIES
TO GIBBONS ON
BONUS EVICTION

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 13. (U.H)
Defending the action of the ad-
ministration in evicting the bonus
army from Washington, Secretary
of War Pat Hurley answered charg-
es made by Floyd Gibbons, news
paperman and brought rounds of
applause from Legion guests at the
dinner rendered National Com
mander Stevens Monday night.
Gibbons had been addressing the
gathering He referred to rough
treatment accorded the men, de-
clared the army burned the
homes, the humble, poor homes of
the men that came to Washington
to pead with congress" He de-
tailed their patriotism, how they
stood in the rain and sang the
national anthem"
Hurley was introduced. Slowly
arising, he began in slow voice: ::
MY friends, we have met here
in the spirit of comradeship.
There is one subject on which I
did not intend to speak, but I will
reply to the statement made by Mr..
Gibbons, I will reply to the chal-
lenge made to me-"
A cheer arose.
HE told you that the soldiers
set fires to the humble homes of
those men. That is not fact.
The fires were set by the men
themselves. No members Of the
army would do that. All fatalities
occurred on the day before the
army arrived"
Hurley then retold events of the
day the army was ordered out:
when the President sent word
to me that the civil authorities Of
the District of Columbia had in
formed him that they were power
less to handle TIE riot, that men
had been killed and many others
injured, I wrote with my own hand
the orders under which General
Macarthur acted
81 have never failed to take it
on the chin when 1 had anything
coming. If you have anything to
say to me, say it. I never thought
the government was in danger, but
when there are riots, peace must
be restored" he concluded.
