HONOLULU, September 19 (). — The famous trans-Pacific seaplane | -9 No. 1, reconstructed at the Pearl Harbor air station, after being picked lup off Kauai more than 200 hours overdue from San Francisco, made a successful four-hour test flight this morning. Six men were assigned to go up in the seaplane today, but when noses were counted in the afr, it was found {that three others had stowed away that they might have the first ride in the seaplane that carried Comdr. Jahn Rodgers and his men on their historic journey. While the big ship was in the air radio messages were sent to the Navy Department at Washington and to Comdr. Rodgers aboard the U. . & Idaho en route to San Francisco, tell- ing of the successful fllght in progress. The message to the flight commander | congratulated him on the wonderful | condition of the seaplane despite its nine days at sea.

G. Risley, solicifor for the lepartment, for an opinfon as to whether Saklatvala is admissibie to this country under the immigration law; Mr. Davis explained that the inquiry was not prompted by the State Department, but was initiated by himseif. Under the law, the Labor Secretary said, the Communist delegate appar- ently comes under the provisions of the immigration statutes which bar from this country all admitted mem- bers of the Communist party or those who teach doctrines inimical to the Government of the United States. He added that hundreds of mem- bers of the Communist party have been refused admission to the United States on this basis and declared that he saw no reason why special dispen- satfon should be granted In & vala's case. The opinion is expected to be rendered late this afternoon. — e WOMAN GETS 60 DAYS FOR DRIVING INTOXICATED Irene Longerbean Also Fined $100 After Pleading Guilty to Accusation.
