Then came the ejid, while other planes be hind htm were scurrying back to San Diego. Passengers in the Western Air express monoplane, on the same run, which some distance behind, was turning and succeeded in get ting back to San Diego safely, witnessed the flames of the gaso line explosion as the T. A. T. ship cracked np. Likewise did many motorists on the San Diego Los Angeles highway, near, which the crash occurred. Tomliason, summoned to the scene last night, today made the following report: "I have Just returned from the scene of the crash. An inspection of the wreckage was made by J. G. Nail, of the department of commerce, and myself. We agreed there was no Indication of any motor or mechanical trouble. Everything we could gather from inspection pointed to assurance tha t the motors .were running when the plane hit. - "I believe the plane was mak ing a left hand torn. Russell hooked his left wing on the hill side. Weather reported Sunday showed a 1200 foot celling fore cast when the plane left Agaa Caliente.

"Tomorrow morning, 9 a. m., at Grant Central air terminal here, I will convene a board of inquiry made up of our company pilots. The meeting will be open to the press. This analysis Is strikingly sim ilar to the story of the disaster of the T. A.

Their initial appearance was the past Saturday night and they met with an enthusiastic re ception. Dancing, singing, and banter proved pleasing diversions, and has made the offering for this coming Saturday night, "Oh Doctor," one to be anticipated. The troop promises new songs, new dances and new specialties for this production. A musical comedy has not been listed among Salem's amusements for a long time and it should prove a welcome addition to the list of theatre attractions. e The inimitable Edward Everett Ilorton is at the Capitol today and Wednesday In one of his short comedy features. Anyone who saw Horton in "The Hottentot" will be pleased to be given the chance to see him again in any thing. It would be difficult for any human to be funnier than he is. Today Is th first day for Zieg field's "Glorifying the American Girl" at the Fox Elsinore. This man Ziegfield has made the idea of reviews an old one because he has been presenting "reviews" In the extravagant "Follies" for the past many years, and in them he has been making stars jnst as the recent screen "reviews" has been making stars Winnie Light ner, Marie Dressier, and many others were not taking many good breaks until they appeared at their best in one or more reviews. Now they are signing big con tracts. It will be interesting to see what Ziegfield, the man of the stage, does with the screen. Remember that today is the last time for Ruth Chatterton ia the powerful "Madame XM at the Hollywood. This play ia really too good to miss not only the play.

There was not extensive suffer ing and no food shortage. Fuel was needed by many families and their needs were being supplied. As the situation along the St. Francis darkened, the White river in Arkansas was falling and was being held within its levels in the Devil's Bluff section, where a few days ago it was believed the fight was hopeless. The Ouachita, Ark ansas and Black rivers were re ceding and the Mississippi was creeping toward a crest at Cairo, where it had reached flood stage. It remained cold in the Missis sippi valley tonight and the fore cast called for more snow or sleet. Such weather would aggravate the immediate situation.

"That bridge has more capacity than the one below," objected Al derman Watson Townsend, who before" Z. F. Moderate! Wc orer a coast-to-coast e CIMl was chairman ot the bridge com mittee last year. "That may be. There Is not enough clearance under that bridge either," Mr. Dancy re sponded. It the water had not backed up from the Winter street bridge, it would have been flood ed back from the Cottage street bridge, he said. He added that he had never been in favor of con structing bridges with concrete beams. "Did - you consider jacking the bridges up to let the water through?" asked Alderman Henry Vandevort. "So, we did not consider that," Mr. Dancy replied. "Will it be necessary to put pipes around all of those bridges?" Mayor T. A. Livesley wanted to know. Mr. Dancy ventured the opinion that if the Winter street bridge could be made adequat to carry the water now, the next hir.h water period would reveal what the other bridges would need.

When the damage was first re ported, persons who had consis tently defended the work of the bridge enginers, claimed It was due to the contractor's negli gence.
