SAN FRANCISCO, June ZQ-JP)
An explosion aboard a 38-foot
yacht berthed at Treasure island
today tore away the entire stern
of the craft, which sank immedi
ately- in 45 feet of water.
Charles Larsen, 45, the only
crewman aboard. Jumped to tne
dock with his clothes aflame- and
was painfully burned about the
hands, face and arms, before the
blaze was extinguished.
The yawl's owner is Arthur F.
Rousseau. San Francisco real es
tate operator.
Pre-holiday crowds at the fair
thronged to the island's compact
little harbor as the blast echoed
over the water.
It was assumed the explosion
occurred in the gasoline tank of
the craft's auxiliary motor.
Larsen said he was working on
the 'gasoline tanks of the craft,
the Fulton G, when he noticed the
port tank was leaking. He said
he transferred "the gasoline into
the starboard tank, then, started
the engine. A spark ignited gas
in the bilges;
Ralph Stubbe, Palo Alto radio
engineer who witnessed the explo
sion said, "the yawl seemed to
rise out -of the water and break
in two. ' Her mizzenmast went 35
feet Into the aii, and a -sheet of
flames 50 feet hih enveloped
her."

provision could be well applied to

The abolition, h? added, pro
vides "an entering wedge of leg
islation against a specific class In
the community." "
Previously the senate had
stamped its final endorsement on
the relief measure and despatched
it to Mr. Roosevelt only iM
hours before the midnight dead
line. As passed by the house, the
compromise relief bill carried
$53,300,000 less than the total
appropriation approved by the
senate..
Stricken out,? however, were
provisions originally approved by
the house to substitute a three
man board for the present single
WPA administrator and to set
aside $125,000,000 for public
works from the $1,477,000,000
work relief appropriation.
Besides the work relief allot
ment, the compromise measure
carried $100,000,000 for the Na
tional Youth Administration and
$1X3,000,000 for the farm secur
ity administration.
The compromise legislation pro
vided that the WPA could spend
not more than $52,000 each on
non-federal building projects. The .
house originally had approved a
$40,000 limit and the senate had
increased it to $75,000.
