By the Associated Press. The end of another chapter of the Federal Government’s $50,000,000 ex- | penditure on airships was reached yes- | terday with an official Navy report | that the causes of the crash of the | dirigible Macon had not been deter- mined. Secretary Swanson approved with- | out comment and finding of a court of inquiry that whatever caused “a sudden lurch or jar” set up a chain lof circumstances which did not end until the huge craft had crashed off the California coast last February. No Blame on Any One. At the same time, the court's re- port, signed by Rear Admiral Orin G. Murfin, found no blame could be at- JY |tached to any one for the crash, or [l | any one singled out for responsibility i | for it. | “The court,” said the report, “has f been unable to determine whether or not this lurch was caused by a gust of wind or by the giving way of some | part of the ship’s structure, but what- ever caused the lurch was the direct cause of the damage that followed.” Two Killed in Disaster. Two lives were lost in the disaster and Secretary Swanson said later he would oppose further Navy dirigible construction. Lieut. Comdr. H. V. Wiley, the commander, who also sur- vived the crash of the Macon's sister | ship, the Akron, has been transferred | to sea duty, and some of the others | aboard the Macon have been sent to Lakehurst, N. J., where the Navy's remaining lighter-than-air activities | are carried on. In declaring it was of the opinion “that no offenses have been commit- ted.” the court paid high tribute to Wiley and his officers and crew, ; YOUTH ACQUITTED Four-year-old Cerilie Ann Kearns of San Pedro, Calif, pictured above, |Los Angel IRefers snakes o dolls, Bhe'hss | - o5 s Jury Frees Boy on Charge of Killing Father. been playing with snakes since she was 1 year old, and she shares with LOS ANGELES, May 23 (#).—Or- ville Scott, 18, was acquitted by a her brother Jacques, 13, a collec- tion of 200 lizards.
