Krwin Ator of Alhambra, Cal., reported he intercepted saying that a derelict airplane and a" life raft carrying a man and the body of a dead woman had been picked up at sea. Leroy was reported to have re ceived the message on , a wave length between 40 an'd .4 2 meters. B. H. Linden, United - Statqs supervisor of radio in this dis trict, declared today that he knew of only five vessels on the Pacific licensed to transmit radio mes sages on a short wave length. These vessels were the schooner Kalmola; motor yacht Four Winds; auxiliary schooner Fish erman, and the gas schooner Ida- lia. A check of the last reported position -of these ships placed them far from the great circle, along which the biplane Miss Dor an and monoplane Golden Eagle were supposed to., have been lost in the Dole air .race to Honolulu. Linden said that several wire less operators aboard licensed 600 meter ships carried short wave length sets, but he. did not be lieve the report could have origin ated from such sources. He expressed the belief, how ever, that the message raight have come from amateur, stations in some remote spot on the Hawaiian island group. A .50 watt station might easily transmit messages from the Hawaiian islands, Samoa or Australia, he said. He admit ted there was little liklihood that signs of the missing planes would be found in the South Seas. PLAN "LINDY" GREETING Portland Rasiness Men Discuss Welcome' for Noted. Airman PORTLAND.
