SEARCH is EXTENDED
FOR SPANISH FLYERS
Mexican Official Reports Lieut..
Collar Killed, but Ambassador
Is Unable to Confirm Rumor.

BY the Associated Press.
MEXICO, D. F.. June 22-Civilian
and governmental aviators redoubled
their search today for two Spanish
transatlantic flyers, long overdue on
flight from Havana, after scores OF
men returned from a fruitless hunt
in mountains southeast Of here where
the Spaniards were reported to have
crashed
President Rodriquezs office received
information indicating the flyers. Capt.
Mariana Barberan and Lieut.. Joaquin
Collar might have been forced south
of their course by storms and had con-
tinued westward through Tabasco State
over the Sierra Mountains.
Consequently preparations were made
to extend the hunt into the States OF
Oaxaca and Guerrero.
A department of communications
official last night said he had con-
firmed reports chat the Spanish plane
Cuatro Vientos. or Four Winds. had
crashed on La Malinche Mountain, that
Lieut. Collar had been killed and that
his companion was seriously hurt.
The Spanish Ambassador. Julio AL
varez Del Vayo, declared, however.
Tlaxcala State appeared untrue. and
that he had made numerous attempts to
verify the rumors without success.
Heavy jungle covers the area east OF
the Sierras and aviotors landing in
that region would have difficult time.
If the Spaniards few westward from
Villa Hermosa, a little more than an
hours flying would have brought them
over the place where Clarence McElroy,
an Indiana pilot, crashed during a
rainstorm last June and was lost for
three weeks before being rescued.

ACT
Deposit Guarantee Provision
AssaiIed by Head of Bank
ers' Association.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HOT SPRINGS, Va, June 22.-The
deposit guarantee provision Of the
by Francis H. Sisson, vice president of
the Guaranty Trust Co. of New York
and president Of the American Bankers
Association, in an address here today
before the fortieth annual convention
of the Virginia Bankers Association.
The guaranty of deposits has been
undertaken on a Nationwide scale" he
said, "on the theory that 1t will restore
confidence III banks and reduce the
number of failures. Experience shows
that 1t will not reduce the number Of
failures and that any confidence it In
spires will amount to nothing more
than feeling of false security that will
run heavy risk OF eventual disillusion-
ment, with disastrous consequences.
THE only kind Of confidence worth
having Is confidence that is warranted
by the soundness of the banks. And
soundness is gained not by deposit
guarantees. but by competent manage
be successful only to the extent that
genuinely better banking makes it un-
necessary"
Meanwhile, S. w. Keys of Glade
Spring, Va, president of the Virginia
association, in his keynote address de-
scrlbed the passage Of the Glass
Steagall bank bill IN the closing hours
of Congress as the greatest revolution
in banking since the passage of the
Federal Reserve act and perhaps in the
history Of bank legislation
The provision for insurance Of bank
deposits he described as the next logical
step" following the action Of the new
administration in declaring bank
holiday, which resulted in the Federal
Government assuming responsibility for
reopening only Oh sound basis, thus
creating strong moral obligation to
protect deposits in banks thus licensed
The hySterical denunciation OF the
measure by bankers generally" he
added, has not tended to increase our
prestige with the public It Is now the
statute law, and the patriotic duty Of
every banker Is to lend whole hearted
support in its administration
Mr.. Sisson said bankers in general
have always opposed deposit guarantee
schemes on principle, and their at
titude has been thoroughly justified
by the experience Of States where
deposit guarantee plans have been
tried" He pointed out that despite the
warning of the American Bankers As
sociation. deposit guarantee laws were
enacted in eight States. In six Of which
the laws have been repealed In South
Dakota 1t is only nominally in effect,
with important amendments, and in
Mississippi its operation has been par
TALLY suspended pending liquidation of
outstanding guaranty certificates
Regarding the remainder of the ad-
ministration's recovery program, Mr.
Sisson said ANY attempt to pass judg-
ment at present would be premature.
