HYMNS PROTEST
AERIAL ATTACK
ON MAUNA L0A
Chanting Natives Put Faith
in Madame PeIe, Hawaiian
Fire Goddess.
BIZ Tnited Prcss

By United Press
HILO, r. H, Dec. 27.-Natives
singing and chanting hymns to
Madame Pele, Hawaii's fire god
dess, abandoned their stations at
the foot of Mauna Loa volcano to-
day as II United States Army bomb
ing planes prepared to go aloft and
fight the menace of advancing lava
flows with areial bombs.
For more than month the
l4,000-foot volcanoes fire pits have
been erupting flame, gas and lava in
one of the most prolonged and ex-
tensive displays in memory Of island
inhabitants.
Direct Appeal to Goddess
The bombs will drop 30 tons of
high explosives in an effort to plug
the holes in the earth from which
the lava streams are pouring, and
to divert the flow from its pres
ent course paralleling and gradually
advancing upon the Wailuku River,
principal source of Hilos water
supply.
AS army authorities and vol
canologists discussed the proposed
bombing experiment, expressing
doubt that it would have noticeable
effect, the natives gathered near
the smoking red lava streams.
They chanted and sang to the &C
compartment of stunning ukeleles.
Reverently they appealed to leg
endary Madame Pele, residing with
in Mauna LOa's churning craterS,
to stem the flow of molten rock and
earth.
Doris Duke Flies Over Crater
To attempt to bomb the lava will
be a futile effort, they believed, de-
claring the fire goddess will direct
the streams where she wishes.
Henry w. Mueller, inter-island
Always pilot flew over Mauna Loa
today with Doris Duke Cromwell and
her husband, James Cromwell, as
passengers.
Progress of the flows did not in
dictate immediate danger to the city
of Hilo.

to all American Indians, who
have reached the age of 20
years, annuity Of one dollar per
day during the balance OF their
lives, has been introduced in the
L. 5. Senate by Senator Nor
beck Of North Dakota The
measure is a good one and while
it would not give the Indians

three--day hunt which led them
through the toughest part OF
