Ferry Pilofs Killed In Crash Called "Cream of Crop’ 15 Officers and Men Were Doing Fine Job, Official Declares By the Associated Press LONG BEACH, Calif, Jan. 20.— The Ferry Command of the Air Corps lost some of its finest pilots with the deaths of 15 officers and men in a T. W. A, transport crash near Las Vegas, Nev., Friday night. “They might have been the honor roll of the command,” a high offi- cial said today. “They were doing | a hell of a fine job.” | The officer consented to be quoted after a reporter pointed out that Carole Lombard, another victim of the crash, had been given the head- line play although the ferry pilots undoubtedly were heroes. The com- mand previously had limited infor- mation regarding its flyers to their names and home addresses.

They were | doing a *remendo®s job.” | The officer said the men had fer- ried planes to Britain, to Canada,| to the East Coast of the United| States ever since the service was started July 1. “They were eager to go anywhere, any time—the cream of the crop.” He said names of the pilots were withheld a short time the night of tne crash “until we checked and | double checked our records.” He explained how even then one error crept into the list.

After he had overruled the de- | fense motions argued by Emil Mo- | rosini, jr, of New York, Justice Goldsborough remarked: | “I cannot anticipate the future,| but T know of no reason why this| case cannot be tried on Wednes- day.” Mr. Maloney maintains that Feb- | ruary 2 was set as the trial} date by Justice F.

He explained the hearing was in- tended to present “the whole pic- ture.” Mr. Maverick said he, too, was with those for care. He indorsed the Randolph bill in | principle and recommended: 1. The immediate building of hos- | pital units providing at least 1,000 additional beds. 2. Consideration of units or addi- tions providing another 1,000 beds and “the grant of Government sub- sidies and aid to proyide hospitals.” He said he did not think the bill under consideration should place restrictions on where the facilities should be built. Mr. Maverick admitted he would like to see the committee “preju- diced” against hospital officials who might press for permanent type con- struction. U-Boat Packs Off U. 5.

The Germans may “have had | some wild idea” that Prime Minister | Churchill would return to Britain by sea and may have sent out subma- | rine packs to sink him, he said. But, | he added, that was doubtful because | they would not have tipped off their | | position by sinking other vessels. | (Churchill flew home via Bermuda.) | This source pointed out that U- | boats must prepare for a round trip | vor 7,000 miles in order to operate off |the American coast and that this | limits their stay to 10 or 12 days unless they can refuel from supply | ships, a difficult operation.

Wrecked Airliner Was Far Off Course; No Engine Trouble Nineteen of 22 Bodies Taken to Los Vegas; Accident Delays Others By the Associated Press. LAS VEGAS, Nev., Jan. 20—The Trancin‘inental & Western Air transport which carried Carole Lombard, 15 ferry pilots and six others to death was 7 miles off its course and presumably did not have engine trouble, investigators report- ed today. A T. W. A. spokesman said the luxury ship was 7 miles northwest of its course. He stated the course is 25 miles wide and that T. W. A. planes are not routed over such higa peaks as the 8.700-foot mountaln into which the ship crashed Friday night. . A representative of the Civil Aero- nautics Autherity said- propellers of the twiv-eng'ied craft were not feathered, as they wosld Lave been if the motors had faltered.

Blease, Ex-Senator, Dies In South Carolina Perennial Candidate Was Stormy Figure in State, National Politics Coleman L. Blease, former United States Senator from South Carolina, where he was'a political storm cen- | ter for ypars, died last night in a Columbia (S. C.) hospital, the As- sociated Press reported. He was 73 years old. A perennial candidate for office | since the 1890s, Mr. Blease was Gov- ernor of South Carolina from 1911 to 1915, and was United States Sena- tor from 1925 to 1931. He shot into the national limelight in his first administration as Governor because of his issue of nearly 3,000 pardons. He bitterly attacked America’s entry into the World War, and Pres- ident Wilson's policies. In 1917 President Wilson made a direct ap- peal to South Carolina voters, ask- ing the former’s Governor’s defeat in his race for the Senate. Skillful Criminal Lawyer. In private life a skillful criminal lawyer, Mr. Blease was a candidate for Governor or Senator in almost every primary in the last two dec- ades. His last race was for Governor in 1938. In later years he usually polled enough votes to enter a second pri- but never was nominated Last year he was elected by the General Assembly to the State Un- | employment Compensation Commis- sion, and began his four-year term last July 1. Mr. Blease was born in Newberry. S. C., October 8, 1868. He attended | Newberry College, the University of | South Carolina and Georgetown | University. The year after his | graduation from Georgetown in 11889, he was elected to the State | House of Representatives, where he served almost a decade. Was Constant Candidate. Whether “Coley” Blease was elected to more public offices than any other man of his time, as he | said, or was defeated for public | office more than any other man, as | many of his political foes said. he | was a candidate in almost every | election after he attained his ma- | jority. State House of Representatives, he | was later State Senator and served | as presidential elector in 1896 and 11900. In 1910 he became Mayor of Newberry, from which office he re- signed to become Governor. | Mr. Blease was Governor for two 2-year terms till 1915, and one of the last acts of his administration | was a blanket pardon for many | hundreds of persons free on parole. Referring to the pardons. he told Senate colleagues that “they were poor and helpless, with no one to | speak for them, no money to hire la tions, no money to have friends | come into the Governor’s office and make appeals for them. Some of them served for years and years for the very smallest offenses.” Disbanded National Guard. In January, 1915, he startled the State by resigning a week before the expiration of his second term and | the notice. written in red ink, was cheered by the Legislature. An ‘earlwr skirmlsh with the War De- partment, over the disposition of the | State militia led to an executive | | order immediately before his resig- nation, disbanding the entire State National Guard. The order was rescinded by Gov. Richard I. Man- ning, his successor. | atorial | fight in | sentative James F. Byrnes, | United States Senator and now an | associate justice of the Supreme | Court. Mr. Blease, who was bitterly primary. a four-cornered Wilson, including the League of Na- | tions, carried his disregard of party regularity into the Senate. In 1926 he prevented a Senate vote on a res- olution of adherence to the World Court by conducting a filibuster, Admired Dawes and Borah. Discussing party organization a year later with South Carolina newspapermen. he said he did not belong to the Democratic party, “if by the party is meant the caucus that tries to dictate how I should vote.” He professed great admira- tion for Vice President Dawes and Senator Borah of Idaho, both Re- publicans. Mr. Blease was married twice. In | 1890 he married Miss Lillie B. Sum- mers, who died in 1934, and in 1939 he was married to Mrs. Carolina Floyd. Among his survivors is a half brother, former Chief Justice Eugene S. Blease of the South Caro- lina Supreme Court.
