By the Associated Press SAN DIEGO. Calif., May 25.—Piloting a monoplane similar to “The Spirit of St. Louis,” Capt. Emilo Carranza today was somewhere south of the Mexican border on a non-stop flight from here to Mexico City. Capt. Carranza left here at 3:15 pm yesterday, with the announcement expected to have breakfast today in Mexico City. An hour and a half after his take-off he was sighted over Cal- exico, Calif. His plane carried 300 gallons of gas- oline and his food supply consisted of a few sandwiches, a bottle of coffee and some water. The route to the Mexican capital calls for flying over long stretches of desert country and numer- ous mountain ranges, and is described by aviators as one of the most treach- erous air courses on the continent Prior to taking off here Capt.

The Pres- ident has been represented as ready to sign the bill promptly when it reaches the White House. Senator Johnson has agreed that as soon as he gains recognition for the Boulder Dam measure he vill yield to allow the Senate to agree to the com- promise on the Welch-Smoot pay bill. ‘The Senate will act probably unani- mously and the papers will be rushed to the House, where Chairman Lehlbach is ready to move at once for concurrence. If the House should happen to be in committee of the whole. considering other legislation, Mr. Lehlbach will make the motion of concurrence as soon as the eommittee rises.
