MC-1 SINKS DEEP OFF CORVO
fiC-3, Battered by Waves, Will
Be Dismantled and Sent
1 Back to United States.
' WASHINGTON. May 20. Tugging
Rt anchor in the harbor of Ponta Del-
f j?ada, Azores, the eeaplane NC-4, the
lone surviving entry of the American
navy for first trans-Atlantic flight
honors, awaits only morning and fa
vorable weather to start the 800-mile
slash to Iisbon, Portugal.
Lieutenant-Commander A. C. Head,
ierlkipper, hopes to "hop off" on the
third leg of the journey at 6 o'clock
in ie morning, anl believes he will
reach Lisbon before dark.
!Only Brief Stop Plan.
If all is well with the flight, an
ernight stop will be made at Lisbon
id the NC-4 will proceed on the last
ap of the trans-Atlantic journey for
lymouth, weather permitting.
The NC-4 was overhauled here to-
ila'y and took on a full supply of fuel.
Everything about the giant seaplane,
which has, so far broken all previous
distance records, is ready for the next
phase of her daring journey.
Everything in Readiness. (
After three days at Horta, where
She landed upon completion of the
record-making flight from Newfound
land, Lieutenant - Commander Albert
C. Read's big ship flew to Ponta Del
gada today, covering the 150 miles in
one hour and 44 minutes. This was at
the rate of approximately 86 miles an
hour.
Rear-Admiral Jackson, in reporting
the arrival of the NC-4 at Ponta Del
gada, said the plane was "O. K." and
Plight Commander John H. Towers to
night reported the plane to be in "ex
cellent condition."
Day Trip Planned.
'Naval officials here expect the NC-4
to get away tomorrow unless weather
tonditions are very bad. The flight
to Lisbon should not require more than
10 hours. After replenishing fuel sup
plies and being overhauled in Portu-
gal, the NC-4 will undertake the last
leg of the voyage to Plymouth, Eng
land. The NC-4 was definitely made the
Bole reliance of the American navy in
an attempt at this time to cross the
Atlantic through the air through a re
port received tonight from Comman
der Towers at Ponta Delgada, who in
formed the navy department of the
pinking at sea of the NC-1 and the
commencement of the dismantling of
the NC-3 preparatory to shipping the
plane back to the United States.
NC-1 Is Total Loss.
The NC-1, which was in command
of Lieutenant - Commander Bellinger,
sank off Corvo this afternoon, after
the United States destroyer Fairfax
was unable to salvage her. The heavy
Eeas made towing impossible and the
destroyer stood by waiting for the
weather to moderate. But the body of
the machine filled with water and the
wftigs were broken off. This, com
Wbined with the weight of the engine,
caused the plane to settle many
fathoms deep.
Previous reports had said the NC-1
was outside the port of Horta in bad
condition, and it was presumed by
navy officials here that her bow was
torn out by destroyers attempting to
tow her into port. r
NC-3 Badly Strained.
It had been thought the NC-3, de
spite the damage wroughtr during
nearly 60 hours spent on a high-running
sea, might be put into shape to
resume the flight. Commander Towers
evidently after examining his flagship
decided to leave the field to the NC-4
alone. ,
This information was received to
night at the navy department in
cablegram from Commander Towers
at Ponta Delgada, giving a general

Resolution Adopted Urging Congress
to Sustain All Features of War
Time Prohibition Act.
ST. LOUIS, May 20. President Wil
son was criticised today by commis
sioners to the 131st general assembly
of the Presbyterian church. United
States of America, for requesting con
gress to repeal or amend the war-time
prohibition act and a resolution was
adopted urging congress to sustain the
law. President Wilson is an elder in
the church.
A copy of the resolution will be
cabled to the president. It follows:
"This assembly learns with pain that
the president of the United States has
recommended to congress that it repeal
a part of war-time prohibition and in
view of this fact we most earnestly pe
tition congress that it not only retain
the measure but that the measure be
enforced to the fullest extent, to the
end that the needs of the world for food
may be met and that the efficiency and
morale of our own people be pre
served." When the resolution was read, the
commissioners applauded for several
minutes.
The Rev. Dr. W. M. Hindman of Co
lumbus, O., declared "such a- stand is
very unbecoming for an elder in the
Presbyterian church and. for a man
holding so high an office as that of the
president of the United States."
. B. E. Prugh of Harrisburg, Pa., state
chairman of the prohibition organiza
tion of Pennsylvania, asserted "this is
the second time President Wilson has
stepped in to befriend the liquor inter
ests and means the undoing of all that
has been done."
Enforcement of war-time prohibition
was emphasized further in the report
of the temperance committee, which re
quested congress to "oppose all efforts
to rescind any part of war-time prohi
bition to become effective July 1." The
report advocated world prohibition.
The committee deplored the use of
cigarettes, especially by women, and
urged upon Presbyterians the non-use
of them.

was standing by, but there Was no in
activity because it only was by rushing
work in day and night shifts that we
could make everything ready in antici

stepped aboard for the first leg were
by no means an overslept lot. " The
order waa given by Commander Towers
to stand by, and soon the motors on

Belief Is Expressed That Trouble
Between Two Wings or Party
Has Been Adjusted.
WASHINGTON. May 20. Possibility
that the progressive group of repub
lican senators might take no part in the
selection of senate committees was re
moved today by the appointment by re
publican leader Lodge of Senators Mc
Nary, of Oregon, and Gronna, of North
Dakota, both allied with the progres
sive wing, to places on the party com
mittee on committees, and acceptance of
the former.
Although no reply had been received
from the North Dakota senator tonight,
it was believed that the differences,
which resulted first in Senators Borah,
of Idaho, and Johnson, of California,
and later in Senators Kenyan, of Iowa,
and Jones, of Washington, declining
appointments on the committee, had
been adjusted.
The committee on committees, which
makes all republican committee assign
ments in the senate, at a meeting to
day was understood to have agreed on
concessions to the democrats In the
membership of the appropriations com
mittee, which under previous plani
would consist in the new senate of 12
republicans and 8 democrats. The com
mittee, however, declined to entertain
any suggestions as to giving the mi
nority a larger representation on the
foreign relations, interstate commerce
and finance committees.
Five senators belonging to the pro
gresslve republican group. Senators Bo
rah, Johnson, Jones, Kenyon, of Iowa,
and Norrls, of Nebraska, met today to
discuss the organization. Senator Bo
rah announced after the meeting that
no final plans had been reached.
CAPTAIN SAVES HIS SHIP
Norwegian Bark Superior Reported
Lost Arrives at New York.
NEW YORK, May 20. Three months
after the 50-year-old Norwegian bark
Superior became a "mystery of the
sea." by "disappearing" off the Island
of Ball in the Malay archipelago on a
voyage from Manila to New York, the
vessel arrived here today with her cap
tain unaware that his ship had been
given up as lost.
The crew was recruited in San Fran
Cisco before the ship sailed from that
port for the Philippines la December,
1918.
Captain Hansen explained that after
he and the crew, believing the Superior
was going on the rocks, put out in two
lifeboats toward shore, the wind
veered and his own boat returned to
the ship. Meanwhile the mate and
six of the crew went ashore, and be
lievlng the vessel nan been lost, so

LONDON. May 20, 11 P. M. (By the
Associated Press.) Up to this hour
there is no word of Harry Hawker and
his navigator, Lieutenant-Commander
Grieve, who left St. Johns Sunday to
attempt a non-stop flight to Ireland,
Not a single report has been received
from any of the numerous airplanes,
destroyers, minesweepers and light
craft of all descriptions which have
swept the seas off Ireland.
Their task has been hampered by
fog and rain.
In an official communique just is

eminent in relation to the cross-Atlan
tic flight which has ended in disaster,
the admiralty warns the public that in
view of the vast areas Involved the
chance of finding Hawker and Grieve
are very remote.
Government lt(ti Cnntlon.
The communique, referring to recent
criticisms, says that the attitude of the
air ministry has been to enjoin caution,
rather than to urge' such attempts, and
while anxious to do the utmost to save
such gallant and Intrepid airmen as
Hawker and Grieve, the government
feels bound to warn those who may in
the future attempt to fly the Atlantic
that its resources make it utterly im
possible that the immense task of
patrolling 2000 miles of ocean can be
undertaken.
All communication centers in London
are silent as to news from Hawker and
Lieutenant-Commander Grieve. - Even
the rumors which prevailed yesterday
and last night have died out. I'he. opin

Malady Described as Symptoms ol
Brlghts Disease, Aggravated by
Internal Complications.
OLYMPIA. Wash.. May 20. (Special. )
With little or no apparent prospect
of ever regaining his former health and
vigor. Governor Lister was taken from
Olympia today In an ambulance for the
second time this year. He went to con
sult specialists at Seattle as the result
of a relapse he suffered several weeks
ago after he had so far recovered
strength as to be able to ride down
town and visit the executive offices.
Speedy development of stomach trouble
ensued beyond which the governor has
made no progress since
The most optimistic of the governor's
friends now concede hopelessness of his
ever becoming a well man. It is not
thought likely that he will make any
attempt to reassume the governor's
office for the remaining 18 months ol
his term.
Although obviously seriously stricken
when the legislature assembled in Jan
uary, Governor Lister remained at his
office for several days, and when taken
home continued for some time to direct
executive affairs through Attorney
General W. V. Tanner and Dr. Henry
Suzzalo, serving in advisory capacity.
In a short time he was taken In what
many feared to be a dying condition to
the Western Washington hospital to be
under direct care of Dr. W. N. Keller,
superintendent of that institution.
Inference from this that the gover
nor's mind was affected annoyed hira
so that he returned to Olympia on
March 14 and has remained here until
today. His malady is described as
symptoms of Brlght's disease, aggra
vated with internal complications af
fecting other vital organs.
Governor Lister is 49 years old.

President's Message Read
in Both Houses.
IMMEDIATE ACTION ASSURED
House to Take Up Suffrage
Resolution Today.
ROADS RETURN PROMISED
Wilson Recommendations in Many
Cases Anticipated by Leadens on
Republican. Side.
.WASHINGTON. May 20. President
Wilson's cabled message outlining leg
islation for the extra session of the
new congress was read separately in
the senate and house today by clerks,
and arrangements were made by con
gressional leaders for immediate .con
sideration of the vast legislative pro
gramme, with the equal suffrage reso
lution to come up tomorrow in the
house.
M:jor recommendations of the pres
ident were for the early return to pri
vate ownership of railroads, telegraphs .
and telephones, for repeal of war-time
prohibition insofar as applying to beer
and win;, for woman suffrage, retalia
tory tariffs, protection of the dyestuff
industry and labor and employment
measures. The president announced his
intention to turn back the railroads al.
the end of the calendar year.
Wilson's Plans Anticipated.
Republican leaders met the pres
ident's proposals for early return of
public utilities by statements that such
legislation already was planned. A
to the prohibition recommendation both
republican and democratic "dry" lead
ers Joined in vigorous statements dis
senting from the president's sugges
tions and predicting that no beer and
wine repeal would be passed. Opinion
in both senate and house as ascertained
by leaders was general that the ban
on beer and wine would not be lifted.
Presentation of the president's mes-
Bae the first ever transmitted to this
country by cable was the principal
business of today's session. Neither
the senate nor house was in session
much more than an hour, tho former
adjourning until next Friday and the
house until tomorrow. Before the
president's message was read, the
hou.;e arranged to "ake up tomorrow
the woman suffrage resolution. Its
adoption before adjournment is
planned. Senate leaders have promised
prompt action in th upper body prob
ably early next month.
Flood or Hills) Reported.
The flood of bills and resolutions
opened in the senate today, while scores
were thrown into the house hopper
which yesterday received about 1200.
The principal measures in the senate
asked for copies of the peace treaty,
for definition of the American policy
in Russia, adoption of woman suffrage,
establishment of a federal budget sys
tem and repeal of the luxury taxes and
the daylight saving law. All were re
ferred to committees, democratic sena
tors objecting to all requests for Im
mediate consideration.
Republican plans for many Investi
gations were launched in a resolution
by Chairman Green of the house mer
chant marine committee, proposing in
quiry into operations of the shipping
board and emergency fleet corporation.
Representative Welly of Ohio, asked
for an investigation by a "non-partisan
commission of irregular and unlawful
expenditures."
Organization Pushed Forward.
Organization of senate and house
was pushed forward today at a contr
mittce conference of house republicans,
a meeting of the republican steering
committee with Speaker Gillett and an
Initial meeting of the republican sen
ators' committee on committees. The
democratic senate steering committee
will meet tomorrow to consider minor
ity changes.
Of tho recommendations In the pres
ident's message, those for return to
private ownership of railroads and
wires and repeal of wartime prohibi
tion against beer and wines drew most
comment from congressional leaders.
It was agreed that legislation dealing
with the public utilities virtually ia as
sured at the present session. Leaders
also were Interested In the president's
statement that If he was familiar with
administrative questions affecting tel
egraph and telephone systems he could
"name the exact date for their return
also."
Prohibition FeellnK Strong.
In proposing the beer and wine meas
ure, the president said that "demo
bilization of the military forces ...
has proceeded to such a point that it
seems to me entirely safe now to re
move the ban upon manufacture and
sale of wines and beers." Legislation
!s necessary to remove the prohibition
provision, the president said he had
been informed by his legal advisers.
Senator Sheppard of Texas, democrat,
and Representative Randall of Califor
nia, prohibitionist champions of the war
time "dry" law. and other prohibition
advocates. Issued statements announc
ing determined opposition to repeal Iok
islalion. They Mccliire a large majority
of congress favors prohibition and pre
dicted the repeal nie:isnre would ni
