A last minute movement In oppo

sumed formidable proportions during
the morning, disappeared, before the

surances by leaders that the public
ity clause would not make public the
loans by the reconstruction corpora
tion without further action by Con
grats. Pressure from bankers nil over tho
country overnight had caused a move
ment to send the bill back to confer
ence for elimination of the publicity
clause.
I Heady For President
The bill, representing months of
controversy over federal aid to tho
unemployed, Is now ready for Presi
dent Hoover's slgnaturo and will
probably be forwarded to the White
Houso immediately.
It carries a (300.000,000 emergency
relief fund; appropriations of $322,'
000,000 for public workB; and an ln-
creaso In tho borrowing power of tho
reconstruction corporation of $1,500,
000,000 for construction loans to spur
employment and speed up industry.

the Glass amendment to tho homo

Senate leaders were somewhat ap
prehensive over the possibility of ad
journing congress tonight, as the
movement seemed to gain headway.
They sent representatives to con
sult houso leaders to dctermlno
whether sentiment in that branch
had changed sufficiently to allow
elimination of the publicity clause.
Thero was a strong factor in tho
senate, however, opposed to sending
tho bill back to conference and de
manding that the bill be passed and
sent to the White House.

clause developed overnight. Bankers

Ralney explained the senate had
directed its banking comtmlttee to In

rovonue bureau, but that without an
amendment to tho tax laws this com
mittco would bo denied access to tax
records. Tho sonata today sent to
tho Whlto Houso a bill reducing the

to three and one half per cent and
permitting loans on certificates less

The senate today voted to insist
upon retention of the Glass currency
expansion provision in the adminis

Tho senate today approved a Joint

AMERICAN AIRMAN
RESCUED AFTER '
WEEKS IN JUNGLE
(Continued from Page One)
So handicapped was he that he es
timates he only covered four miles la
nearly three weeks ot crawling. The
Jungle at that point Is well-nigh Im
passable and he had no tools to cut
through. h
Although ho said ho believed the
wrcckago was only four miles distant
from whero ho was found, searching
parties had not located It after a full
day of looking. The volunteer expedi
tion pushed on, however, although
membors said there was no hope of
recovering Gordon's body, which
probably long since had been carried
away by wild beasts.
One of McElroy'a ftrst acts lost ,
night was to offer a generous reward
to Melardo Enrtques, the Indian hlll
man who stumbled over hlB exhaust
ed body in the Jungle late . Thursday
and saved Ills life.
Ho then asked that his mother be
not! r fed by cable.
Today he was resting well In the
homo of Mayor H umber to L. Pineda.
A physician said ho would recover.
The Pan American Airways has of
fered to stop a plane at San Geronimo
Sunday afternoon to pick up McElroy
and bring him to Mexico City. The
olfer probably will be accepted If he
can bo moved that soon.
