Senator Borah of Idaho, who con- tended for the export debenture plan of. farm relief in. opposition to the president, gave his party leaders in the senate new cause for concern to- aay with his proposal to put the chamber on record for limitation of tariff revision to agricultural and re- lated -products. The 11 republican senators on the finance committee already have de- feated a similar motion by Senator King, democrat, Utah, which won the support of the democrats on the committes .It was then that Borah's propossl was recognized as the principal issue before the senate to- day with prospects of considerable support from the republican inde- pendents and democrats who lined up against the president on deben- tures. Senate Ready to Yield Meanwhile, the farm relief mea- sure was back in the hands of a Jeint conference committee with the Reuse on record for the first time on the ' export debenture provision which the senate twice has insisted on, But the house vote of 250 to 113 ‘was 80 overwhelmingly against the debenture plan that many of its ad- vecates in the senate were ready to yield after perfynctory negotiations. Enactment of ‘the farm bill, in form acteptable to the president, by temorrow night now is the objec- tive of administratien leaders, who then will be ready to propose a re- cess until the senate finance com- mittee completes its work on the tarift bill, probably in August. Moover Wins and Loses President Hoover won and lost yosterday as congress disposed of three other recommendations on his five-peint program. The census-re- appertionment bill, embracing two of them, received final approval by the ssnate, 48 to 37, and was sent to ‘White House.

Sald Gas Getting Low The Yellow Bird told the Rocham- beau that it was taking the south- ern course because of an unexpect- ed high rate of gasoline consump- tion. From the fact that it made no mention of its fuel supply in its communication hours later fo the Niagara and Laconia it was as- sumed that a recheck o fthe tanks had been reassuring. American Farmer Report Chatham, Mass., June 14 (#—The steamship American Farmer report- ed by radio at 1:50 a. m. today that she had heard the Yellow Bird com- municating with the British steam- ship Laconia and the French steam- er Rochambeau shortly after mid- night. The Radio Marine Corpora- tion of America station here receiv- ed the report from the American Farmer. Niagaras Hears Plane New York, June 14 (P—The French line steamer Niagara report- ed by wireless today that it was in communication with the transatlan- tic monoplane Yellow Bird at 6 o'clock this morning, eastern day- light time, and that everything was reported well on board the plane. Laconia Gets Fliers London, June 14 (M—Offices of the Cunard line here today received a wireless from the steamship La- conia, bound for Liverpool, which had been in communication with the French transatlantic airplane Yellow Bird and reported all well aboard. The message was timed “Noon G. M. T." (approximately 8 a. m. E. 8. T) The position of the Yellow Bird was not given in the message, which read: “Noon G. M. T.

A hundred police reinforced the regular guards and cleared the field carly in aniticipation of a great throng to greet the French fiiers. Field (0 Be Guarded The field will be guarded this evening by a large force of addi- tional policemen and the 34th regi- ment of aviation will throw a cor- don around the landing place upon which searchlights will be trained as a guide to the eagerly awaited airmen. Madame Lotti, mother of Armeno Lotit, radio operator of the Yellow Bird, got so nervous walting for news of her son this afternoon that she refused to stay in town any longer and came here with her hus- band and friends intending to stay until the Yellow Bird comes in. M. Lotti said that he was quite calm, hut added: “I wish it were over.” Winds Are Favorable Paris, June 14 ® — Favorable winds for the French transatlantic airplane Yellow Bird blew all along the northern coast of France and Brittany early this afternoon to speed the three French aviators on to their destined goal at Paris. Aviators were at a loss to ex. plain the unexpectedly high con- sumption of fuel reported by the Rochambeau. The Yellow Bird had been flown repeatedly in test flights and the rate of consumption was supposed to have been definitely determined. Weather reports indi- cated that a favorable wind had been encountered. so that strong head winds could not be blamed. One possibility considered in some quarters was that the added weight of a stowaway. rumored to be on hoard the plane. had been enough to upset the calculations on fuel consumption and cause the engine | to burn more than the expected | amount. Sea Reported Rouzh The sea was rough and the sky | overcast, however, with stormy weather reported from several coast meteorological stations. The wind was generally from the south- west and blowing with a velocity estimated at 25 miles an hour. Unfavorable weather conditions. | particularly as regards head winds. | had heen earlier reported hv the French weather bureau. though the weather man predicted that the| wind would veer around to the| Isouthwest tomarrow. Comhinations | over the Aflantic changed faster | than he had predicted. | Up to 4 o'clock this afternoon | (10 a. m. E. & T.) M. Lotti. sr.. had received no messages from the nlane. He said that he had a cable from Ol4 Orchard announcing the {Aeparture of the Yellow Bird but that he had had nothing further.

June 8 and is due here on Monday, which would put it somewhere this side of the middle of the ocean. The -American’ Farmer of the United States Lines reported it had heard the Cunarder Laconia communications with the plane by wireless, but did conversation. Some fliers saw in the report from the Rochambeau an indication that the Frenchmen were heading for the Azores to make a landing there. They pointed out that if the Yellow Bird had progressed some 600 miles along the northerly route from the “corner” to head for the Azores, would mean turning ap- proximately due south and that for the next 500 miles or 50 no progress would be made in the direction of the goal. Doubt Plan Followed This. they maintained, wouid not be done unless it was considered highly probaole th; a landing would have to be made before the mainland could be reached. The other side of this line of rea-4 soning, however, was that if the Yellow Bird turned south from a point 1,600 miles from Maine along the northern route at 2 a. m, it should have reached the Azores by 7 or 8 o'clock and it had not been reported .there at 10:30, more than 24 hours after the take-off from Old Orchard. The more optimistic were confi- dent that the plane had swung southward until it picked up the Azores, but not so near as to be sighted from the ground and had then wheeled along the easterly course to Portugal. Shortest Route 913 Mile: ‘The shortest course rom the ‘Azores to the mainland is to Lis- bon, a run of 913 miles, but the Frenchmen had planned when leav- ing that it they should take the southerly course they would head from the Azores northeast to Cape Finisterre at the very northern point of Portugal, which would add an- other 100 miles or #o to the distance over water, When the Yellow Bird took off at 10:08 eastern daylight time yester- day morning from the Maine coast, the crew had two courses under consideration. Tt s planned to travel east southeast 1,000 miles to the steamer lane “corner.” At that poin the crew was to decide whether they would follow the steamer lanes northeast and then cut across east to the French coast or proceed southeast to the Island of Faval in the Azores and then over to the northern tip of Portugal. At the speed of 100 miles an hour known to have been maintained for the first 800 miles of the flight (a steamer sighted the that distance) the Yellow BDira would have been 1,600 miles out at the time of the message from the Rochambeau. The wording of the message indicates that the decision had been made to take the norther- ly course and after proceeding along it for 600 miles, necessity had forced a veer to the routh. The southerly course is 600 miles longer (hnn the northerly. Speed is Calculated The Yellow Bird is credited here with a speed of 150 miles an hou: when not too heavily loaded, but as she made only 100 miles an hour during the first eight hours with a favorable wind, most aviation ex- perts consider her arrival here un- likely until weli after midnight. This would mean 6 o'clock. or lu- ter this evening, eastern standard time, Rene Lefevre's brother today re- ceived a cablegram saying the plan= carried sufficient fuel for 32 hours and that the fliers expected to maka not tell the burden of the wireless plane at | the trip in 30, which would bring the ship into Le Bourget at 9 p. m. or 3 p. m. eastern atandard time. Other ldvicel indicate that the plane carried enough fuel for 26 Rochambeau and thehours, depending upon any head winds or storms which she have to fight. Message Transiated The message from the Rocham- beau was received at 2 o'clock this morning and was in somewhat gar- bled French. It was translated hy French line officials as follow: 'On account of the heavy use of gasoline we are changing our course and go- ing toward the Azores and the Por- tuguese coast.” The message was 80 garbled in transmission that it was impossible to tell when it had been dispatched or when the steamer had received the report of the change of course from the Yellow Bird. The message reported that the Yellow Bird gave its report at “—:30 G. M. T.” Some in the of- fice thought this was supposed to be 12:30 G. M. T., which would be 6:30 New York time last evening, prior to the time the plane was sighted by a freighter 850 miles from Maine, No Loss of Time If this was true the decision to take the southerly course would mean no appreciable loss of ground as the swing to the southern course could be made at the steamer lanc “corner.” Others, however, thought the time could not have been 12:30 G. M. T. as there was no reason- able explanation for the Rocham- beau having held the report for hours before relaying it to shore. may 30 Mile Wind at Brest Brest, France, June 14 UM—A 30- mile wind blew here this afternoon from the direction west southwest. This would favor the French trana- atlantic fliers if they cross the Brit- tany coast at 8t. Nazaire. The sky was overcast, with intermittent showers, Bordeaux Weather Bordeaux, France, June 14 (#— A good stiff wind blew here this aft- ernoon from the souwest, favoring the French transatlantic airplane Yellow Bird in that part of ;ts flight which lay between the Azores and the coasts of Portugal and France. The skies were cloudy with a visibility for airplanes of about six miles.

The cement is sought to combine the greatest economy in materials and manufacture with the beat ser- vice, which includes quick drying, resistance to wear, and minimum expansion and contractien in heat and cold. Raw materials, in powdered form, are used in varying quantities. They are placed in the tiny boats so there is no danger of impurities combing wlth them under intense heat. The heat-tormed compounds are formed into a “clinker,” which 1a studied to find not only what chem- ical combinations have occurred but what influence the composition has on the properties of the cement. Little bars are cast from each of the different varieties. These are measured. Some then are placed for & year in & both of running water; others are placed in a cabinet where moving air passes over them; while other sets are immersed in various alkali solutions. The bars least affected are ex- pected to give the key to the ideal cement. When laboratory studies have been completed, experiments will be tried on a larger acale be- fore the results are adapted to in- |dustrial production, Experiments have been under way five years. Dr. R. H. Bogue heads a staff of six men. who do the re- search under a fellowship of the Portland Cement Association. ‘While definite results will not be accepted until they have been tried on a larger scale, Dr. Bogue believes that they may now look forward to a design of raw mixtures which will give early strength, improved dur- ability, and volume constancy. Early strength is of special im- portance in the building of roads. Contractors look forward to the day when roads may be opened within a few days after completion.

(UP)—While indi. cations ‘are that Spanish love for bull-fighting is slowly being trans- ferred to football, the art of the matador -is gradually spreading through France, much to the indig- nation of many welfare organisa- tions. In Central France bull-fighting has suddenly become a craze and neighboring towns compete in in- ducing crack matadors to come from Spain to prove their mettle in the arens, Thus, Vichy, which was once famed solely for its medicinal wal ers and attracted thousands of tour- ists and health-seekers annually, now advertises its bull-fighting tour- neys. Towns still farther north, such as Bourges and Nevers, have also he- come enthusiasts and there are signs that the sport is spreading in popu- larity farther north. The fear that it may become a national pastime is- causing the organizations which de- nounce bull-fighting as an inhuman spectacle to renew their fight against it. The French society for prevention of cruelty to animals is particularly Indignant, since in France there fis not the same law which now applies in Spain, where the horse must be protected with a steel shield against the horns of the maddened bull. The opponents of bull-fighting know that once the public begine to accustom itself to the brutality of the sport it is ditticult to get them to forego the vicious pleasure, while they are equally aware that big fortunes .are fovelved. It is. not.vo- usual, for example, for towns in the south of France to pay $5,000 to a crack Spanish matador to make & tlying visit and kill a few bulls_for the edification of several thousand thrilled spectators. The bull-rings in central France are now advertising themselves ex- tensively, insisting that the specta- tors are in no danger from the bulls.
