BLAME NATURE
FOR WRECK OF
GOLDEN STATE

Concluding an extensive investi-
cation of the derailment of the
Golden State Limited, transconti-
mental train of the Southern Paci-
fic, near Tucumcari, N. M, on
August 90, which resulted in the
death of II persons, board of in
quiry has just made known its
findings, declaring the tragedy was
caused by unprecedented flood
waters aggravated by size and To-
cation of a highway BRIDGE
Through the testimony of nu-
nlerous witnesses, including resi-
dents of the region, state highway
engineers, and railroad employees,
the board of inquiry learned that
the flood, which undermined the
east concrete abutment of the DO
foot steel girder bridge causing it
to collapse under the weight of the
locomotive, was the highest ever
known in that locality, being six
to 10 feet above any previous high
water mark.
The board of inquiry found that
every precaution had been taken to
guard the safety of the train dur
ing the heavy storm. Orders had
been given the train crew to pro-
coed with caution, and at the time
of the derailment the train was
travelling only about 20 miles an
hour, while a speed of 60 miles an
hour is normally permitted over
the bridge. Representatives of the
interstate commerce commission
attended and assisted in the inves-
tigation.

HOPE EXPRESSED FOR REPLACING
AIRMAIL LINE ACROSS VALLEY

is also the only direct route from
San Diego to Phoenix, the former
city now having TO dispatch airmail
via Los Angeles to the eastern CT
ties.
Immediately after the southern
route was discontinued early this
year the beacon lights which mark
ed the route from San Diego across
the state to Yuma we're removed
and Bomar and Hays, manager of
the Ell Centre chamber, protested
their removal in the belief that.
the southern line would eventually
be reestablished and the beacons
would again be necessary. Despite
the efforts of the two chambers,
however, the beacons we're removed
and Bomar's message today is the
first favorable word which has been
cent Ell Centre concerning the
hoped for establishment of the
southern transcontinental airmail
line.
Bomar states, I'VE are not ac-
lively endeavoraing to have the
San Diego-Phoenix airway reestab-
lished at this particular time, feel
ing that it would be impossible to
stage a successful campaign until
business conditions improve. Our
aviation committee, however, is con-
fident that with the return of nor
NAL business conditions TIE route
will be reestablished connecting San
Diego, Ell Centre and eastern points
by air."

Belief that the southern trans

During the long struggle to have
a direct airmail route established
from San Diego to Phoenix through
Imperial Valley with a stop at the
Imperial county airport and the
efforts made to keep planes oper-
ating on this route when the gov
eminent curtailed airmail service
throughout the country last spring,
the FL Centre and San Diego cham
bers worked together consistently.

giving most of his attention to tho makeup of his official family.
 Nor did 1t mean that he was not reasonably certain who would fill at least some of the cabinet posts. Senator Thomas J. Walsh was be- lieved by some prominent demo- crats to be slated to be attorney general, and the choice of Miss Frances Perkins as secretary of labor appeared to be almost cer- tain. Roosevelt, commenting on a Washington report that Miss Per- kins might be made secretary of commerce, said, That's all wrong."
 Roosevelt gave much of his at- tention yesterday to the farm prob- lem. He conferred with former Governor Harry II. Woodring of Kansas on the agricultural situa- ton in general.
 Indications that the concentrated consideration of patronage prob- lems was nearing an end, at least until tho period immediately pre- ceding inauguration, werc seen in tho announcement of Robert II. Gore, newspaper publisher, that many of tho intimate advisers of tho presid dent-elect would be his guests in Florida for a two or three week rest cure.
 Tho party will include James A. Farley, chairman of the national committee; Colonel Louis M. Howe, Robert IT. Jackson, W. Forbes Morgan, Frank c. Walker, Marvin Mcintyre. Colonel Arthur O'Brien, Eddie Bowling and George Hills.

 "rhe present bill falls to fulAll these responsibilities. It invites all these dangers. It does not fulfill the idealism with which this task in human liberation was under taken"
 He held that the economic lifo Of the Philippines to-day and for many years 10 come lis absolutely dependent upon their favored trade with the United States" and that the bill would cndanger the fnan- clal system of tho islands.
 Asserting that the passage of tho bill was motlvated In large part for the presumed relief of certain American agricultural industries, President Hoover held that 1t gives no protection to American farmers during the first two years, and that in tho following nve years there will be no effective protection be. cause the amount of competitive commodities admitted Into the United Stntes duty free k larger than imports of sugar and cocoa- nut oil In 1928.
