It. was announced that Senator

Meanwhile, the Camp Springs air

Senate without debate.
Called up by Chairman King OF
the bistxt Committee Just before

measure was adopted by unanimous

tion, however.
The King bill carries ont the rec

and development the bill authorizes

A. passed by the House the May
bill would require Washington Air

Airport officials said they would have
to borrow the money, and that the

Of the road is worth to them, since
it will not add to the income of the

The Copeland bill provides for con-
veyance Of title to the road in fee
simple to the airport but still requires
the payment OF 325,000 to the county
for construction Of = substitute road.

agreed.

 Are Grounded
BY EARL LEAF Limited Press Staff COrrespOndent)

CUM1teU kfeSS Stakt COFreSpOnUcHeD
 Shanghai, October 2. - (UP) - Torrential rains flooded trenches and roads and made morasses of fields in the Shanghai area today Many parts of the International Settlement were flooded. Water and high winds combined to intensi- fy the suffering of thousands oi Chinese refugees, sleeping for weeks In doorways and alleyways.
 So severe were the rains that they stopped the war on the Shang- hai front.
 Japanese airplanes were grounded and thus there ende dior the mo- ment a gigantic air raid program on which the Japanese had em- parked coincidently with President Roosevelt's peace speech and the State Departments approval oi League of Nations action in the Chinese Japanese war.
 More than 100 ariplanes, Japa- nese spokesman disclosed, bombed mercilessly all day yesterday over a wide area of north, central and southern China towns and rail- roads, including the Peiping-Han- kow and Tientsin- -Pukow lines in the north and the vital southern road between Canton and Hankow. the national supply line for muni- tions.
 Canton's suburbs were bombed again today, and 1t was established that communication on the Canton Hankow line had been interrupted temporarily. One stalled train con- tained 250 officers and men of the British cruiser Cape Town to Can ton from Hankow.
 Chinese leaders here and at Ranking were jubilant today at the news that the State Department had expressed its approval of League of Nations procedure in the Chinese Japanese crisis.
 officials, financiers and business men discussed the statement excit- edly and a high Chinese official commented:
 "It is a ray of hope for China through the darkness. All China knows now of Americas positive moral support at this critical mos ment, and Is heartened. It gives us an idea of what we may expect We do not expect America to fight China's battles. But statements SC definite, so strong, so clear leave no element of doubt that America stil stands for the preservation ol civilization"
