rives Here on Yukon

Gaylord Adams, who with his
NC seaplane, and Pilot James Rine-
hart, was reported yesterday two
DAYS overdue in Ketchikan to the
U. S. Customs office here, arrived
this afternoon on the Yukon from
Petersburg, where they had landed
on Sunday evening after two-day
trip from Juneau.
The plane required two days to
make what is ordinarily an hours
trip, due to an overheated engine
which forced them to spend most
of two days and nights on the
water Of Seymour Canal They
were first forced down just below
Mole Harbor, Mr.. Adams said, and
Pilot Reinhart attempted to find
out the motor difficulty. They fin
ally managed to reach Petersburg,
with no casualties or serious dam
age. Rinehart remained in Peters
burg with the plane which will
require extensive repairs and Mr.
Adams came to Juneau for neces-
sary tools to send down.
The local Customs Office had
been notified that the plane was
missing and overdue. The ITALIA
poosa left Immediately yesterday
from Juneau and the Alert from
Ketchikan to make a search.
Capt. Fletcher w. Brown, of the
Tallapoosa said today that he
closely watched the port shoreline
enroute to Petersburg searching
for the plane and about two miles
out of Petersburg was advised by
the Alert that the plane had been
found in Wrangell Narrows, down
because of engine trouble.
After ascertaining that no addi-
tional help was needed, Capt. Brown
put the Tallapoosa about and re-
turned to Juneau, arriving at 7::30
o'clock this morning.

Attacked Wilson

In opposing the League of Ma
tons project, Shields attacked Pres
ident Wilson SO strenuously that
he was accused of having helped
to hasten the breakdown of the
war time President. He also voted
against the soldier bonus and the
tive circumstances were used
against him when he was defeated
in the campaign of 1924 by L. D.
Tyson, a veteran of the Spanish
American and World Wars.
AS an opponent of prohibition
Shields voted to uphold wilson's
veto of the Volstead act, declar-
ing it an "unwise and detrimental
piece of legislation. H
As an upholder of state rights
he fought against Federal control
of water power, declaring that the
United States government had no
authority to dispose of power sites
within the states, whether they
were on navigable or non-navigable
streams, unless the streams ira
yersed government land. The states,
he maintained, were entitled to the
revenue accruing from leasing OF
power sites. He believed the act
creating the federal water power
commission was unconstitutional. 4
Shields was born August Is, 1858,
at "Clinchdale," a 3,300-acre estate
in Granger county, Tennessee, that
had been in the family since 1906

WASHINGTON, May 1O.-A Sc
we're sharpening of the war debt
crisis, and an increase in imperial
ist antagonisrns, especially between
the United States and Britain, was
made certain today by the ruling of
the State Department, which de-
clared that in the future token pay
ments by European powers on war
debts to the United States would
constitute default"
Last June Great Britain paid in
a certain amount of silver, which
was accepted as token" pay
ment, obviating default"
In Britain the capitalist press is
sharply coming out with agitation
to refuse to pay any more Of the
war debt to the United States. The
London Daily. Express, in an edi-
torial yesterday, declared "Presi-
dent Roosevelt may as well know
that this country is paying no more
war debts"
The Roosevelt government is
using the war debt issue in the Bit
ter struggle for world markets and
colonies, and in order to strengthen
the position of the American bank
ers, in their mancuvers with other
imperialist powers.

Propose To Change
.NRA To Help Big
TruStsBOOstPr
To Concentrate on Codes
in Steel, Coal, Auto,
and Like Industries

WASHINGTON, May 1O.-Drastic
changes in the NR.A. in order to
put all concentration on the big
trusts, and help them through in
tenSified monopoly, was indicated
today in statements from high Of
ficialS in the N.R.A. administra-
ton. The object is to eliminate
codes for the so-called smaller in
dustries such as laundries, BARRIERS,
restaurants, hotels, ETC., doing away
with even the pretense at mini
mum wage or maximum hours.
The reason for this is that a
number of complaints have been
piling up against the NR.A., and
General Hugh S. johnson, chief
N. R. A. administrator, has been
unable to conceal the fact that the
Roosevelt administration does not
intend to take them up.
Hereafter, according to the plans,
the main emphasis will be put on
steel, coal, automobile, lumber and
0 other manufacturing industries,
where the codes will be frightened
up at the expense of the workers.
The idea is to permit the big
trusts to go ahead with their mon
opoly price-fixing, and let the
smaller industries out of the codes.
