S.E.__ Atiantic I U.S. TOGETREPORT | ONPLANE DISASTER Investigators Now' Complet- ing Inquiry Into Death of Eight in West. By, the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, September 10.—In- vestigators of the Aeronautics Bureau of the Department of Commerce today were completing an investigation into the wrecking of Transcontinental Air Transport’s passenger liner City of San Francisco on Mount Taylor, N. Mex, with loss of eight lives. Maj. Clarence Young announced he will hold’ no hearings on the disaster in this city, but said he planned to nfake an exhaustive study of weather the year over the Western flying routes. His “findings in this regard, together with observations he made at the scene Washihgton after the department has assembled all of its reports. Maj. Young {came here by plane from Albuquerque, N. Mex., Sunday. , % Report to Washington. R. J. Hazen, sent out by Capt. Walter Parkin, head of the Los Angeles office of the department’s Aeronautics Bu- reau, as soon as the big transport was reported missing, is conducting an in- tensive investigation of the wreck from Albuquerque and Gallup. Hazen also will report his findings to Washington. Maj. Young explained that the prin- cipal purpose of the Department of Commerce investigation was to “find the cause and seek to eliminate it in future flying.” “To form an opinion now or to ex- press one would be premature,” Maj. Young said. “I know the air-minded- ness of the American public will accept this tragedy as it would accept a similar unfortunate happening in any other mode of travel.” Rice States Opinion. Lieut. George A. Rice, Western Air Express pilot who discovered the wreck- age on Mount Taylor, has expressed be- lief that Pilot J. B. Stowe of the City of San Francisco, blinded by a wind and rainstorm, made a slight mistake in wind and altitude calculations, resulting in the storm forcing the ship against the_mountainside. “The only possible way the accident could have been avoided, it seems to | me,” said Rice, “would have been for the plane to have had more altitude or to have remained in Albuquerque.” | . “It is a deplorable thing,” he coi | tinued, “and this is the only explan: {tion I can give for its cause. It is al | most impossible to predict weather con- ditions in that section, they develop so suddenly.” THREE BODIES § T HOME. Others Await Instructions From Rela- | tives to Authorities. GALLUP, N. Mex., September 10 (#). ! —The placid quietness of the South- | west today appeared in this little town |after five feverish days, the result of an | airplane crash in which eight lives were lost. The sheriff’s office, once the center of activity and filled with men coming and going, was deserted. The airport, where scores of planes were centered for the greatest aerial search in history, had only two lanflings yesterday. Tired men, worn from their “70-odd hours’ work without, rest, were sleeping. Tidentification was completed last night of the seven men and a woman who were plunged to death in the City of San Francisco, Transcontinental Air Transport, Inc., plane that crashed and burned on the precipitous sides of Mount, Taylor, 20 miles from here, in a storm last Tuesday. Seven of the bodies were identified by dental work, melted metal of jewelry or general physical size, and the eighth was a logical iden- tification. The body of the eighth bore no telitale marks, no metal, and it was agreed it musf have been that of Wil- liam H. Beers of New York City. The body of Harris Livermore was {sent to Boston, C. F. Canfield’s body was sent to New York City and Pilot | J. B. Stone’s remains- were on their way to San Diego. Others were being held pending word from relatives. LINDBERGH GIVES VIEWS. In Joint Report Cause of Wreck Is Not Finally Fixed. ST. LOUIS, September 10 (#).— ‘Transcontinental Air Transport officials, including Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, chairman of the technical committee, issued a report last night concerning probable causes of the wreck of the air liner City of San Prancisco with the loss of eight lives on Mount Taylor, N. Mex. The report was based on Col. Lindbergh’s observations at the scene and the telegraphic report of Paul Col- ling, general superintendent of the line, who directed the search and visited the wreck. \ “Too many things are involved,” the report sald, “to give an irrefutable cause of the accident. From a survey of the facts obtainable, it is our opinion that Pilot Stowe crashed into the ! ground at full speed and under full control. He may have been blinded momentarily by a severe storm. “A dangerous storm area was not in- dicated on any of the. weather reports and must have been very local in character. Just before taking off from Albuquerque, Pilot Stowe was handed a weather report showing visibility, temperature, cloud conditions, baro- metric pressure and ceiling and other important data from 12 reporting sta- tions in that area, three Weather Bureau stations and nine T. A. T. sta- tions. At none of these places were hazardous flying conditions reported. On the same day out eastbound ship and aircraft of other companies flew the same route without encountering unusual conditions. “Pilot Stowe did not take off in the face of poor flying conditions ‘nor against his better judgment, as mo one in the entire T. A. T. organization has the authority to order a pilot to make such a flight. 7 “It is quite possible that full facts concerning the cause of the tragedy will never be known, but the company realizes its obligations to make public such facts and will do so if they are Taylor, IBOY HELD IN SLAYING | OF SLEEPING FATHER; | Had Been Scolded for Spending Too Much Money and Staying | Out Late. { By the Associated Press. | FRIENDSHIP, Wis, September 10— | Because his father, James Galston, 50 scolded him for spending too much money and staying out late at ‘night,' Duncan Galston, 14. said he shot and killed him with a rifie as he slept in Mis farmhouse near Adams yesterday. - | Last night the boy was in the county jail here, charged with first degree murder. He readily confessed to the slaying when authorities arrested him at an Adams billiard parlor, where he nonchalantly played pool. The money | for the game, authorities said, was| taken from his father’s body. The boy was given a preliminary hearing here yesterday afternoon. He pleaded guilty and was bound over for trial in Circuit Court. { Galston's body was found by his sons. James, jr. and Herbert, who returned to their home about an hour after the | shooting. eight dead were found In the eabin wreckage. WASHINGTON, . FIRST PICTURES OF ILLFATED DESERT AIR LINE — D. ¢, CHEST COLLECTIONS NEARING RECORD $1,156,537.48 About 77.7 Per Cent of Total Sub- scribed for 1929, With subscripfions amounting to $1,156,537.48, or approximately 77.7 per cent of the total subscribed to the 1929 campaign, by September 1, Elwood Street, director of the Community Chest declared yesterday that “Washington bids fair to establish a record for col- lections this year.” Publication of the subscriptions yes- terday by the auditing department of the Chest, disclosed that at the close of the campaign in February, collec- tions totaled $1,501,560.77. Recently, received pledges brought this total up to $1,505290.72, but duplication of pledge cards, reductions and cancella- tions amounting to $17,424.46 reduced the subscription total for 1929 so that pledges for the year amount to $1,487,.- 866.26. Fourteen tiousand for the bal- ance of $331,328.78 were dispatched early in September and Chest officials anticipate large collections for the month. Record Is Expected. “When it is considered that our cam- paign did not end until February, and that in seven months of the year we have collected nearly four-fifths of the total pledged, we have every reason to be pleased and belleve that Washing- ton bids fair to establish a record for collections this year,” Street declared. He continued, “Economy of the chest method of handling these funds is easily demonstrated when it is re- called that under the old plan of hav- ing 57 organizations conduct separate campaligns at a collection cost of from 15 to 25 per cent, the amount we have collected to date would represent prac- tically the total that would have been obtained by the organizations from pledges representing the same amount subscribed to the chest. As it is we still have upward of $306,000 coming in for relief work and the chest is stay- ing within its estimated cost of collec- tion and administration of funds, or 6 per cent of the total.” Thanks Contributors. In a letter to the Chest yesterday. Dr. William A. Wilbur, provost of George Washington University Hos- pltal, thanked contributors who had designated the hospital as the recipient of thelr gifts. “We are pleased with the many in- dications of the success of the Com- munity Chest,” Dr. Wilbur wrote. “The Telephoto pictures showing (upper) the wrecked cabin of the City of San Francisco, which crashed intoe Mount N.

Will Rogers Says: SANTA MONICA, Calif.—Mr. Hoover and Ramsey McDonald are both peace-loving, tax-saving, con- scientious men, but since 1922 we have read nothing but: “You limit your battleships to so many, and we'll limit our cruisers to so and s50; you have this much tonnage under ten thousand and we will agree to ours over nine thousand.” And both are still bullding and still arguing. If both nations was absolutely on the level with this, they would agree .on a grand total of armament that each one could have, whether it was in battleships or battle axes; cruisers or cuspidors, pistols or paper wads, shotguns or slingshots, submarines or subways, aeroplanes or airdales. But when it was all added up it should weigh the same. Then that will make the next war a tie and will guarantee that we fight another one. Oh, hum. Silencer for Snorers. PLEA FOR COLLEGE MEN.
