telegram 60 the league council last
night asserting terrorism is in
creasing in the Saar.

This staggering blow against

will prove Bruno wrote each and
every ransom note.
The defense is diSmayed at the
states Unexpectedly strong case.
The trial is adjourned over the
weekend.
Edward J. Reilly had counted
on breaking j. +. (Jafsie) Con-

Instead, Condor identified
Hauptmann as the ransom collec-

hours of cross examination.
The State has produced one
witness which placed Hauptmann
near the scene of the crime only
a few hours before it was commit
ted and two witnesses corroborat-
ing DR.. COndon's testimony.
Mrs. Anna Bonesteel. lunch

was met by two men in the car

three witnesses who were with
Miss Sharpe that night.
A Bronx garage man has volun-
teered information that he paint

weeks after the kidnapping. The
car was a dirty green. One wit
ness testified last week that he
saw Hauptmann in a dirty green

F.R.OVERRIDES
SECRETARY AS
TO INSURANCE
Miss Perkins Recommend
atoms for Unemployment
Insurance Ignored
CONGRESS is WELL
AHEAD OF SCHEDULE

WASHINGTON, Jan. ~. CUP)
1t appeared today that President
Roosevelt's recommendation to
congress for unemployment insur-
ance will disregard the opinion of
Secretary of Labor Frances Perk-
ms. The Presidents plan calls for
the employer to give per cent of
payrolls and the wage earners l
per cent of their wages.
Miss Perkins said the employer
should underwrite all of it.
WASHINGTON, Jan. II (UP).
The 74th congress was weeks
ahead of usual schedule last night
when the $78O,OOO,OOO indepen-
dent offices appropriation bill, the
first big bill of this session, passed
by the house and ready for action
by the senate.
The administrations overwhelm-
ing majority roughly overrode an
attempt by Rep. Clarence J. Nc
Leod, R., Mich, to have the fed
eral five per cent pay cut restored
retoractively to Jan. 5. President
Roosevelt is against restoration at
this time.
Likewise it rejected, 1913 to %,
an amendment offered by Repre-
sentative Blanton, D., Tex, to re-
duce the $264,043 appropriation
for the Home Loan Bank board
to 81, and compromised to the
Securities and Exchange commits
sion's demand for larger appro-
priation by granting it 81, O0O,O OO
instead of the 81 $4,000 the ap-
preparations committee has pro
viAed.
A Republican attempt to slice
100000 from the appropriation
for the Federal Communications
commission, which will conduct an
investigation into the American
Telephone and Telegraph Co., also
met defeat. The amendment, OIL
fered by Rep. John Taber, Repbn.
N Y, was voted down 63 to ~
and the appropriation was left al
$1,5OO,OO0.
McLeod's amendment to abolish
the salary restoration never
reached the floor. Rep. Claude v
Parsons, D., Ill.,, presiding at the
time he offered it, sustained q
point of order raised by Rep. Cliff,
ton w. Woodrum, D., Va, and ii
was ruled out.
Thus except for the increased
grant to the Securities and Elk,
change commission, the bill passed
in virtually the form it was re-
ported by the committee. Usually
| the bill is not passed until weeks
after congress convenes. But the
senate is expected to pass it and
send it to President Roosevelt
next week.
Rep. Robert L. Ramsay, DEM,
wv Va, introduced a resolution
setting up an Appalachian Valley
Authority, with functions similar
to those of the Tennessee valley
Authority, and authorizing 1t to
spend $5O,OOO,OOO in developing
| the valley. The resolution calls
for completion of five projects, IN
Guiding three dams and two reser,
voirs. The governing body would
consist of three persons appoint
ed by the president, with salaries
of $4,000 each per year.

FOR AVIATRK
Headed for Oakland From

18-HOUR SOLO TRIP
BIG MENTAL HAZARD

OAKLAND AIRPORT, OAK
LAND, Calf, Jan. 12.-UP).-
Amelia Earhart reported at 1890
p. m. (EST) to the radio station
here that she was within go miles
of Oakland. Miss Earhart took off
on solo fight last night at 1913
p. m, from Honolulu to Oak
land. She might 90 on to Salt
Lake City, her husband said, be-
fore landing.
HONOLULU, Jan. 12.-(UP).
Amelia Earhart headed over the
Pacific on another trail blazing
flight in her career as Americas
First Lady of the Air last night,
with Oakland her goal on a $500
mile hop from Honolulu.
She sent her red monoplane in
to the air from rain-soaked Wheel
er Field at 4: 43 p. m. At approx
imately $50 p. m. she radio
phoned that she was flying at an
altitude of 400 feet, and that
Everything is okay."
Her husband, George Palmer
Putnam, announced on receipt of
the message that she would fly to
Oakland by the Great Circle route.
"This flight represents the
greatest mental hazard that
Amelia ever has encountered"
Putnam said after making his an
nouncement.
He said the flight had been at
tended "by disagreeable publicity,
and scurrilous charges that her
equipment was not in good
shape" =
Amelia. calm and rested after
a day Of seclusion, climbed into
her plane with little ado, first kiss
ing Putnam goodbye, and headed
down to the end of the army air.
port field for the takeoff.
The red plane sped less than
600 yards before taking to the air
with it's heavy load of $40 gallons
of gasoline. Extra fuel tanks had
been installed in the high winged
Lockheed Vega monoplane to ac-
commodate the extra load.
Miss Earhart had the advan-
tage of favorable weather reports
for her long flight. A storm
sweeping in from the northwest
may prove an aid in that its pres
emit course indicates it will pro-
vide tail winds to speed her along.
She carried a bottle of tomato
Juice, several sandwiches and a
bottle of water, but no stimu-
lants.
Army fiers praised the smooth
ness of her take-off which was
made over the water-soaked field,
drenched by early rains. They
pointed out that she had put-the
blame into the air easily despite
the fact there was no appreciable
wind.
Seven steamers were reported
on the route she will follow to
Oakland, which is located on san
Francisco Bay directly across
| from San Francisco.
Putnam, who had watched the
| take-off, appeared confident that
his wife at last was on her way
to another potential air achieve
ment. >,
The start of her flight was made
| exactly one year after six navy
planes arrived in Honolulu from
San Francisco, completing a rec
ord mass flight.
Miss Earhart expected to COM
plete the fight to Oakland in ap-
proximately 10 hours. She expect.
ed to maintain cruising speed OF
1870 to 14O miles per hour at the
start of her gallant effort, then TO
reach for higher speeds as the
planes gasoline load lightened.
Call letters of her radio were
KHABQ,. on a frequency of 3lO5
kilocycles.

CITY COUNCIL DISCUSSES
8 PROPOSED ORDINANCES
Health Officer Would Regulate
Sale Of Milk In Oakland

Discussions concerning proposed or
dinances requiring permit to sell
milk in Oakland, prohibiting the keep
ing of hogs within the corporate linn
its and prohibiting the sale of fire
works, were the points at issue at the
monthly meeting of the Mapor and
Town Council Monday evening.
The milk permit requirement was
presented to Council by DR.. Eugene C.
Peck, health officer, and Fred w. Cas-
pari, special sanitary engineer for
the State of Maryland and in charge
of milk control for the State. Mr.. Cas-
pari is drafting an ordinance covering
State recommendations in regard to
the sale of milk and will present it at
the next meeting of Council.
The discussion concerning the ordi-
nance about hogs and the sale of fire
works came as result of several COM
plants registered by citizens of the
town. There is already an ordinance
against setting off fire works in town,
but none prohibiting their sale. The
attorney for the town was instructed
to draw up ordinances for presentation
to Council.
Council decided to curb and repair
Alder street between Third and Fourth
streets and to repair Third street
from the Baltimore and Ohio bridge
south to Mason street.
Monthly bills, amounting to approx
imately $1,000, were presented and
ordered paid.
The Ringer Independent Oil Com
pany, which recently purchased the
old Buzzard property on Oak street
in the rear of the Manhattan Hotel,
was given a permit to rae the build
ing and on it's site to erect residence
and private garage and to move sew
eral gasoline tanks now owned and
operated by the company on the prop
erty adjoining.
