LOS ANGELES, Dec. 1. U.P)-
Further evidence of a rapproche-
ment between industry and the
"new deal' was offered today by
Henry l. Hartman, president of the
chamber of commerce, declaring
business favors working out a
sound and just economic system. ]"
The national president told
regional meeting of the United
States Chamber that the recent
elections showed an endorsement
of President Roosevelt and that
"business has accepted the man
date of the voters. -
"I am convinced Hartman
said, "that business has accepted
the mandate of the voters and is
facing the present situation frank
ly and realistically, that it is pre-
pared to accept the challenge of a
somewhat changed order. and that
1t will bend its energies toward the
workout of sound and just econ
omic system adaptable to the con-
ditions in which the country finds
itself.'
He called on conservatives to ac-
cept the changed order
"Nothing can be accomplished by
calling names or turning our faces
toward receding past" he said.
He enunciated a Seven-point pro-
gram which was interpreted as one
embodying chamber policies to be
outlined at the coming session of
congress. Partially "new deal,'' it
recommends that:

FROST PLAYS
HAVOC vi II
VALLEY PEAS
Shipments In Northern Area
Practically Suspended And
Future Of Crop In Doubt

Pea shipments were practically
over today as result of the frost
Monday and also this morning,
and whether or not the fall pea
deal is completely over depends up
on the weather for the next few
days.
This information was given the
agricultural commissioner office
today from growers in the north
end who stated that nearly all the
peas ready for harvest had been
destroyed by the first killing frost
of the season. Should the weather
become warmer, there is a posi-
bility that there may be shipments
later, although many predicted that
the fall season was over.
Last night IS weather was in COM
plete reversal of the previous, the
south end reporting colder temper
atures than the north, according to
this noon's IS report made by Fred
A. Baughman, local observer for the
u. S. frost service.
Temperatures as low as 26 were
reported in the colder sections
while in the north end tempera-
lures were degree or SO higher
than on the previous night. Baugh-
man states that the extremely low
temperatures early this morning
were of short duration and that
probably little damage was done.
Another frost is predicted for to-
night although at noon Baughmar
thought that it would not be quite
as severe as the two previous ones

HONOLULU, T. H, Dec. 4. (U.P)-
The attempt of Captain Charles T.

from California to Honolulu end
ed at 1913 a. m. (PST) today when
the plane, lost and out of fuel,
came down at some unknown spot
on the surface of the Pacific in the
vicinity of the Hawaiian Islands.
Since 9:15 a, m. army and navy
planes and shore stations, CONNER
cial wireless stations and naval
and private shipping at sea had
joined in a frantic effort to give
Ulm and his plane, the Stella Aus
tralia, their bearings. Apparently
something was wrong with the
plane IS radio for it was. unable to
pick up the radio beacon signals
which had been turned on uninter-
ruptedly throughout the night.
At 9:15 a. m. Ulm, who then had
been begging land stations for bear
ings for considerable time, reported
his gasoline would be exhausted
soon and there followed a dramatic
series of efforts to bring him aid.
But all efforts failed and about
11:35 a. m. the plane IS signals.
which had come strong to the Globe
wireless station at Kaena Point un-
til that time, began to fade.
