S. s. Circle Shell, June 13.-(R-
Stanislaus Felix Hausner, New Jersey
movie operator whose attempt at a
transatlantic flight to his native Po-
land ended in the sea, was too ex-
hausted Monday to tell the story.
He was resting aboard this ship
and under treatment. but promising
to be completely restored to health
before he arrives at New Orleans
which probably will be in two weeks.
It was decided last night to aban-
don Hausner's red ronoplane, in
which he drifted for week after
falling a few hundred miles short OF
the European coast.
The plane was left drifting In ap-
proximately 42.41.18 north latitude
and 20.04 longitude west. Darkness
which fell shortly after Hausner was
rescued, made it impossible to pick
up the plane. AS it faded from view
it was drifting southwark at speed
of about one knot an hour.
Hausner asked any vessel, whose
position made it convenient, to sal.
wage the plane.

Nonpartisan Cube I'm atoriaI
Candidate Praises Work
-...e, of Railroad Board 1905

Fessenden. N. D., June 49,
Addressing 1900 persons at Non
partisan rally here Sunday. William
LANCER, candidate for governor, con-
demned the manager of the Bank OF
North Dakota for refusing to insure
the Bank OF North Dakota building
with the state fire and tornado fund.
He also assailed the mill commits
sion for giving some of the mill in
surance to other companies when the
state could furnish safe insurance at
a lower cost.
LANCER reiterated his pledge to re-
duce the states expenditures by at
least $l,000,000 and declared that, II
elected, he will give state industries
his unmitigated support.
Other speakers were H. F. SWEET,
legislative candidate from the 35th
district: Alfred Dale, candidate for
treasurer: and o. H. Olson. Endorsed
by the League for lieutenant COVER
nor.
LANCER charged that his I. v. A.
opponent, Frank Hyland, is unable to
show one piece of legislation he has
introduced in his many years as q
legislator which would repeal any OF
the laws which Hyland now de-
nounces.. In control of the industrial
commission since 1919, LANCER said,
the I. v. A. organization has never
tried to repeal any law establishing
state industries.
II want you to remember that the
opposition press garbles my speech
es," the Nonpartisan candidate said.
"They claim that I criticised the
board of railroad commissioners In
my Grand Forks speech. AS a mat
ter of fact 1 praised the board for
the splendid work they have done In
behalf of the people. What I said
was that would use every influence
to help the board get legislation
passed which would enable them to
better serve the people.
"For several sessions bills have
been introduced, but the I. v. A. has
voted them down. Until the fair
valuation of public utilities is deter
mined, we cannot know whether
those utilities are paying fair tax.
A fair tax is all we ask. I made the
railroads pay over million dollars IN
taxes when I was in office before
taxes which they had not been pay
ing since statehood. Thirty millions
of dollars worth Of property had es-
capped taxation.
"As a member Of the equalization
board, when / was attorney general
I fought for a fairer distribution OF
taxes. and we made the large cor
porations pay more just proportion
Of taxes. The farmer and the small
merchant must pay on every piece OF
property he has. The corporations
should also"

HOOVER ASKED TO
POINT Way TOWARD
FURTHER ECONOMIES
Democrats Present Request A.
ter Demand For Addition
al Reductions

Washington, June 13.-(F-A re-
solution calling upon President Hoov-
er to submit to congress specific
suggestions" to bring about the addi-
Itional governmental economies he
has recommended was introduced
Monday by Senator Robinson of Ar
kansas, the Democratic leader.
The resolution said:
The president, with the assistance
of the members of his cabinet and
the heads of the independent offices
and commissions, is in better posi-
ton within the short time before
congress adjourns to ascertain in
what departments, bureaus, commits
sions and independent offices reduc-
ton can be brought about and how
it may be done.
Adjournment plans Of the weary
and impatient congress had been
thrown into confusion as leaders
found themselves in q quandary over
new administration demands for
economy or greater revenue.
Without any definite agreement
being reached, this had been expect
ed to be the final week of the ses-
sion. But Saturday night President
Hoover called in the Republicans
comforting on house and senate diff
ferences in the economy program and
told them the savings expected to
materialize from the final draft OF
this bill-about 500, 900 ,000-were not
sufficient to balance the budget for
1888. -....,
The men who received this warn
ing were pessimistic. They said they
did not see how any more was to be
saved, especially II as was indicated
the amount needed runs between
$150,00O. 900 and 5000 100000. They
hated even to talk of raising any
more revenue than will be obtained
by the huge tax bill already passed.
An expression of confidence, how
ever, came from Senator Watson, the
Republican leader, who after 8 Sum-
day talk with the president. said he
was sure the present legislation would
balance the budget and the present
difficulty would melt away.
NicDuffie Is Bitter
Much depended on the outcome Of
lA1C CNOA1OuAy COAl4CACAANO 4NAOAAN0Js SAS
it Chairman McDuffie, Democrat, Of
the house group, intended to press
for abandonment Of the Hoover fur
Tough plan of reducing the federal
payroll outlay and restore the flat
pay cut, which is figured to save
many millions more. McDuffie was
bitter about the latest word from the
white house, asserting the president
was injecting partisanship by con-
ferring with Republicans alone.
While waiting hopefully for this
situation to clear up, the senate drove
forward with its heavy load Of legis-
lation, tackling first the controversial
problem OF farm relief. Chairman
McNary Of the agriculture committee
expected approval OF his bill to give
the farm board power to use either
export debenture, equalization fee or
the allotment plan for dispostng of
crop surpluses. A night session was
ordered to consider Philippine in
dependence, but . vote was not ex-
pected to Be reached.
