SHOPPING 15 FIRST DESIRE OF AVIATRIX Mrs. Putnam Guest of U. S. Embassy in London—Lands ' During Storm. By the Associated Press. LONDON May 23.—Amelia Earhart Putnam, American woman fiyer. who lact Saturday became the first of her sex to fly the Atlantic alone, was a guest at the American embassy today. She landed at Hanworth Airdrome last night during a terrific thunder- er a flight from Londonderry, Northern Ireland, in a borrowed plane. Today her first thought was of a shopping tour to replace the jodphurs #nd the leather fying suit which made up_her wardrobe She arose soon after 7 this morning, declaring she was thoroughly rested, and after a light breakfast was off on her shopping trip into the West End before 9. “I can't be borrowing always,” she said. At dinner last night she wore a dress loaned her by Mrs. David K. Bruce, daughter of Ambassador Mellon and hostess of the embassy. ‘The crowd which grected her as she splashed to a landing at Hanworth was small but enthusiastic. Other thou- sands had gone to the Croydon Airport, believing she would land there. Among the group at Hanworth was Ambassador Mellon, who welcomed her officially as she arrived at the club house under an umbrella held by two officers of the field. Accustomed to Rain. “I don't mind the rain.” she said. “I got_used to it Friday night.” The, slim young woman, who is the only person in the world to have flown the Atlantic twice, made friends in- smml\ the crowd. your money.” a friend told her ’\ few minutes ter she landed. (She carried only $20 in her pocket when she set out on her flight, and her husband had cabled Iunds from New York.) “Keep it until we get out of the erowd.” she whispered “Have you talked with your hus- band?” a newspaper man asked. It was one of a volley of questions that eeted her. gY"Oh, yes!” she replied. “The first thing I do always is check-in like a good girl. Today the newspapers were filled with the story of her flight, a struggle with storms and failing apparatus from Harbor Grace, foundland. to Lon- donderry. Most of them printed edi- torials of hearty tribute to her courage and skill She interrupted her trip to the em- | bassy last night to broadcast her ex- periences by radio to the United States After an hour at the British Broad- csting Co. she refused to do anything else until she talked to her husband, George Palmer Putnam, by telephone and had a bite to eat.

SEES $750,000,000 CUT IN U. . COSTS Senator Vandenberg Says Econo- mies by Congress Are Under- estimated. Prediction that this Congress will bring about reductions in government expenditures totalling 750 million dol- lJars under current expenditures, was made in the Senate this aiternoon by | Scacior Vandenberg, Republican, of | M igan. The Senator said there was an ob- vious misunderstanding throughout the country of what alrezdy has been ac-! omplished in curtailing the cost of government. He said this is based on ihe belief that the general economy bill, which came to the Senate with tota] savings of not more than $40,000,000, repref@ints all that this Congress in- tends do in the direction of econ- omizin He R:id this belief overlooks the fact that the budget submitted by the ad- ministration at the opening of Congress started with a reduction of $350,000,- 000 and that the House, in writing the various appropriation bills, already has taken off an additional $150,000,000, making $500,000.000 up to thet point. To this saving, he said, must be added whatever amount the Senate takes from the total of appropriations, and on top of that will come the gen- eral saving to be effected in the economy bill. He then made his pre- diction that the final total would be &round $750.0( 00. Senator Bari Democrat, of Ken- . wanted (o know if the budget reduction of $350,000,000 meant that much of a cut under current appropria- tions or under deparimental estimates. Senator Jones, Republican, ¢f Wash- ington, chairman of ths Appropriations Committee, replied the budget estimates were between $300,000,000 and $400,- 000,000 under the ordinary expenses of , the Government for the current year. The speciz]l Senate subcommittce on cconcmy will go forward this week to- ward completion of its work cn the bili, which deals with | qucstions a5 reorganization of governmental activiti-s and a saving in the cost of personnel either ihrough a salary cut or a furlough system. Japanese Transport Burns. SHANGHAI, May 23 (#).—The Japa- , nese military transpor: Bembay Maru burned in Shanghai Harbor yesterday ! as it was preparing to sail for Japan with a detachment of Shanghai expe- ditionary forces.

Pickett’s article, which may have | sericus repercussions among Roosevelt's really wet supporters, resembled an - | indorsement of the New Yorker by the | powerful dry lobby. In eftect, Pickott wrote, Rocsevelt came out for repeal |only because such a statement would |{hold the wet vote in the North and East, and if he wins the nomination and election, the drys “will have no | reason to feel that proaibition has been | repudiated.” “The nomination of Gov. Rogsevelt | by the Democrats appears daily mnre‘ vrobable, although it is not yet certain. the article said. “Gov. Roosevelt. in iew of the two recent wet statements. can certainly nct be the first choice of the drys in his party, but it should be a | mistake to consider him to be what is known as a ‘soaking wet’ When he | was in_Washington, we knew him as a | dry. His wife, unless she has very | recently changed her opinions, is a prohibitionist, and indeed has made prehibition speeches. Gov. Roosevelt is | a man who has no natural symphthy | with the saloon element. “Furthermore, when the drys in his party were faced by the necessity of | combating Raskob's atrocious proposal to put the National Committee on | record as wet they defeated Raskob so | decisively as to humiliate him. and it | is putting the fact diplomatically to say | that Gov. Rcosevelt did not hinder | them in that fight. The conflict be- | tween Roosevelt and Smith at the pres- ent time is a real one, with deep feel- | ing behind it. It has not served to e Gov. Rcosevelt from the drys party, who, indeed, constitute his chief support, inasmuch as Roosevelt strength has been principally in the | South and West.” Liberal Plank’ Forecast. Representative Snell of New York, the House Republican leader, who is slated for permanent chairman of the i convention, expressed the belief that the | Republican platform would contain a |liberal plank on nrohibition. Making clear he did not know a group of Republicans reported to be preparic ed scmething i ill be in the p'atform adopted.” “What it will be I don’t know,” he added. “It is pretty hard to take a | position that the people cannot express their sentiments on a vitally impnrtant ! economic and social problem.” | Beer Bill “Grotesque.” Snell said the beer-for-revenue vote ! to be taken in the House today “is the most grotesque kind of a gesture as| far es doing anything with prohibiticn is concerned.” “The wets and drys know the b?fl“ vote does not mean anything as far as handling the prohibition question is he said. “I do not believe ¢ to fool the people, for every | vho thinks knows you cannot have 3 to 4 per cent beer under the present Constitution. “Every one who thinks also knows | that before there is any degree of lib- cralization, either the eighteenth amend- | ment must be amended or repealed.
