NAVY H|NDERED,
LACKS MEN

The U. S. Navy is so dangerously
undermined that operation Of
war ships in an emergency would
be highly inefficient if not actually
dangerous, Rear Admiral William
D. Leahy, Chief of Navigation,
warned yesterday.
In his annual report to Secre.
tary Swanson, Admiral Leahy re-
stated the warning already pro-
nounced by Mr.. Swanson that 85
per cent full complement for naval
vessels is the limit below which it
is not safe to let the Navy drop.
"The seriousness of the per.
sonnet shortage in its effect
on the fleets readiness for war
cannot be Overemphasized and
the b u'r au considers that
a permanent well trained battle
organization on all cOmbatant
ships of the Navy consisting Of
not less than IS per cent of
the war complement is essen.
tiaI to the national defense"
This would require 86,615 en-
listed men for the current fiscal
year. he said, but present appro.
provide for only 81, 800

Still Wants tOFlY

His faith in flying unshattered
despite the ordeal of being ma
rooned in the Snow-bound Adiron-
dacks for so hours following a
plane crash, R. w. Handbook, at
tache of the Federal Office of
Education, planned to return to
Washington today by train from
New York.
Mr.. Handbook wanted to fly
here, but snow and storm can
celled all flights and he was
forced to take train.
The only i'll effect he suffered
in the narrow escape from death,
he told The Times on long-distance
telephone, was swollen feet, result
ing from the long walk after the
rescue party discovered the
wrecked air liner and the four men
on board.
Nearly Exhausted
The rescue party came in the
nick of time, Mr.. Handbook eX-
planned, saying:
"We were just exhausted. Our
supply of wood vas low, our fire
about out, and we had no energy
to go get more fuel.
I'm the sub zero weather, II
the fire had gone out We would
have frozen to death. The ar
rival of the rescue party was

very cold. I had a light supper
Friday night about $3.50. And
then nothing more until 1890

whisky and wine. 1 took a little
wine, and it tasted very good.

LEADERS URGE
ISSUE s DELAY
UNTIL JUNE
Both Sides Find PreCedents
For and Against Young
West virginian
BY International News Service


A determined fight to keep
Senator-elect Rush D. Holt CD
Of West Virginia out OF the Sen
ate because of his youth at the
time of his election last Novem-
ber, was decided upon today by
. small group of Senators.
They will argue he was dis
qualified as a candidate because
he had not yet reached the age
Of 80 years in November. Mr..
Holt will be 80 in June and the
Senate leadership has advised
him not to seek his seat until
then.
May Make Effort
An effort may be made by Mr..
Holt's opponents to unseat him
before then, by resolution, de-
c1aring his seat vacant. This
would present the same issue to
the Senate as an effort to deny
him his toga next June,
One precedent has been found
by Mr.. Hollis friends for seating
him in June Another Senate
precedent would support any
move to deny him the seat.
The friendly precedent revolved
around a House case, in which a
member-elect was under age and
had to wait six months until he
became Is before the House
would seat him. He was seated
then without opposition.
The Senate precedent involved
. Senator-elect from Illinois in
1B49. He delayed his appearance
nine months because he had not
lived the required nine years in
America.
The Senate then ousted him,
with both Daniel Webster and
John c. Calhoun, noted constitu-
tionaliSts, declaring his election
void because he could not qualify
ct the time his term began. The
resolution of custer held his elec-
ton void.
Must Be 30 Years
The constitutional requirement
Tor residence IN America, under
which the Illinois Senator-elect
was ouSted, rests in the same
sentence of the Constitution which
requires a senator to be 80 years
old.
Mr.. Holt's friends, however,
argue this qualification does not
make his election void. but merely
postponeS the time when he can
assume office. In the earlier con-
test. however, both Webster and
Calhoun took the opposite view on
an analogous issue.
The huge Democratic majority
in the Senate may seat Mr.. Holt
next June despite opposition. This
was indicated when Senator Joe
T. Robinson, the floor leader, de-
clared he believed Mr.. Holt en-
titled to his seat in June.

A package of food and hot cof-
fee was dropped to the men by

But it arrived after the rescue
party had fed the four marooned
men.
Feet Nearly FrOze
Continuing his thrilling story
of the adventure, Mr.. Handbook
said:
I'VE had no OvershOes, and
with the deep snow were afraid
of freezing our feet. We took
towels and rags from the plane
and wrapped them around our
shoes.
But these soon soaked
through and our feet were wet
all the time and extremely un-
comfortable.
"We had great difficulty in
getting wood for our fire, as
the tools in the plane were
buried beneath the wreckage.
But we managed to live
through, although it looked very
black for us. 1 came through
in very good shape"
Mr.. Handbook flew to New
York yesterday and had planned
to fly here last night, but the
storm grounded all planes. He
went 10 a hotel, celebrating New
Year Eve by getting good rest
Still Wants to Fly
Still enthusiastic about flying
he said:
"This accident will not keep
me from flying. 1t was a thing
no one could prevent. We got
into the storm Unexpectedly,
and were unable to get out Of
it. The pilots were blinded by
the snow. and did the best any
one could do under the circum-
stances"

TAGS To WALK

They will be walking the slushy,
:cecovered streets of Washington
today-those 1000 motorists who
forgot to get their automobile tags
for 1885.
For the first time in many years
the Traffic Bureau has refused re-
quests for extension of time, with
the result that cars parked on the
street after 6 p. m. today will be
subject to the strong arm of the
law. New Year revelers were given
a laSt-minute break" by Traffic
Director Van Duzer, when, late
last night. he ruled they could
operate their cars home from
parties bearing 1884 tags, until 8
a. m. today.
Some 1000 Washingtoniaus
yesterday obtained their 1885
tags. Mr.. Van Duzer declared
he had no sympathy with the
1000 who failed to get the
proper tags, since the city has
been flooded with publicity on
the new regulations for many
weeks.
Annual inspection by the Public
Utilities Commission of the city's
$500 active taxicabs was almost
completed today. A last-minute
rush yesterday of 200 of the cabs
leaves only 100 more to be
inspected.
Warnings have been issued to
dealers not to loan tags to
motorists who failed to get their
1885 plates. Violations will
result in immediate arrest, the
Traffic Bureau warned.

WARNS
NY. ON TAXES

ALBANY, Jan. / GN.SD.-En.
tering his second term as chief
executive of New York State, Gov
ernor Herbert H. Lehman today
warned the municipalities that
their drive for a larger share Of
State revenue faces little prospect
Of success.
The Governor delivered the
warning before a brilliant gather
ing in the assembly chamber,
where he publicly took his oath Of
office.
Governor Lehman declared that
in this fiscal year, the State will
have collected and turned over to
its municipalities, either in State
aid or in ALLEGATION of taxes, about
$176,00O,00O or nearly go per cent
Of the States entire estimated tax
receipts for the year. Out Of a
State budget of $279 100000, only
$102 900, 900 is used for State ad.
ministra ton itself.
The Governor pointed out that
the State also takes all the risk
of disappointing tax returns. the
localities getting their promised
aid even if the State runs into a
deficit. estimated this year to ew
ceed 100000, 900.
Governor Lehmans warning
comes on the wheels of the recent
decision by the New York State
conference of mayors to urge q
2 per cent retail sales tax, with
the bulk of the revenue going
back to the localities. The Gov.
ernor's attitude indicates that II
a sales tax is imposed, it will be

1t was happy New Year indeed
today for the four survivors Of

ship which crashed Friday night
on a lonely Adirondack mountain
top southeast of MorehouseViue.
Snatched from death that
threatened them for so hours in
temperatures which touched %

employe of the airway, were in
St. Elizabeth's Hospital.
The fourth man, R. w. Ham
