Republicans have scheduled q

Plane Badly Smashed
The plane was badly smashed, but
it revealed one startling fact. Pilot
Ed Blom had not been rtying to
make a forced landing, and prob
ably did not know he was about to
crash until a split second before
the plane hit. This was deduced
from the fact that no passenger had
his safety belt fastened, a precau-
ton always taken even when q
plane is making a routine landing
That Blom realized his doom be-
fore 1t overlook him, was appar-
ent in that he had turned over his
ignition switch. preventing a fire.
One Of today's investigations was
by the department of commerce
which regulates commercial air
lines; the other by officials Of the
United Air Lines.

The plane had been flying through
heavy weather. 1t took of from

Old Mortality Law
Rep. Sam d. McReynolds called
attention Of the department Of JUS
tice to an almost forgotten neutral
ity law Of 20 years ago. It prohibits
the enlistment Of American citizens
In foreign conflicts and provides
year in prison or 5000 fine for con-
viction.
Sen. Key Pittman condemned en-
liStment Of Americans as dangerous
to the nations neutral status and
suggested they might be disfran-

by Sen. William e. Borah, republican
member Of the foreign affairs COM
mittee, and Sen. Gerald P. Nye,
chairman Of the munitions inves-
tigating committee.

Several Veins Burst
A trustworthy Vatican source said
today that several yaricose veins
In the Pope's left leg had burst,
but that contrary to expectations
the intense pain continued UNI
diminished. 1t was reported that
the wounds were deep purplish
red.
A Vatican spokesman said this
morning that the Pope passed a
satisfactory night on the whole and
that there was no appreciable
change in his condition when he
awoke at 7 a. m.
But there was a sad atmosphere
about the Vatican as realization
OF the Pope's condition became more
clear. He is in great pain from
varicose veins and neuritis in hts
legs. He Is reported to be growing
weaker from the pain and to be
breathing with difficulty because
of asthma. 1t was reported also
that circulation of blood In his legs
was not satisfactory. Prof. Aminta
Milani, his physician, declined to
confirm this report.
Officials Convinced
Most officials are convinced that
the Pope never will be able to re-
sumo his duties, and there are al
most none who are optimistic as to
his health.
1t was learned that Prof. Milani
had been forced TO abandon the
idea of electrical or manual mas
sage Of the Pope's legs to improve
circulation because Of the severe
pain.
Circulation, 1t was said, had be-
come progressively worse as the re-
suit Of Is days in bed, and the
Pope's digestion was impaired for
the same reason.
Prof. Milani was understood to be
particularly anxious as to the
Pope's heart, known not to be
strong. So far, 1t was said, Prof.
Milani has found nothing abnormal

Some Decrease in Pain
Monsignor Tardini, assistant Sec
rotary of state, announced that the
Pope's condition remained station
airy during the morning and that
there was some decrease in pain.
The Pope personally forbade Prof.
Milani to issue formal bulletins on
his health, Msgr. Tardini disclosed.
Absence of official bulletins has
led to dissemination Of many rumors
regarding the Pope's condition. Ac-
cording to the best information, the
Pope continues to weaken because

Lindbergh Kidnap Law
The Lindbergh anti-kidnaping
law permits the G-men to partici-
pate In kidnap cases where the VIC
tib has been transported across q
state line. If the victim is held
longer than seven days, he Is pre-
sumed to have been taken into an
other state. Thus, technically, the
G-men could not enter the case un-
til next week.
J. Edgar Hoover, chief Of the
G-men, announced In Washington
that the full strength Of the de-
partment had been thrown into the
case. 1t was reported there that
SO G-men had been concentrated In
the Tacoma area to await break.
DR.. Mattson was convinced that
It was a kidnapping for ransom and
ransom alone.

the kidnapping" he said. II have

nothing that would cause anybody
to seek revenge on me or my family

mented patient" Of DR.. Mattson
were denied by officials Of the de-
partment of public safety.
