March M ' eret of the Lindbergh story la pub licity. War Secretary Dern brought the colonel down here to get Jilm to en act a big love scene with the war department for the movie reels. The colonel went back to new iora ana sent two scorching telegrams to Mr. Dern and the colonel took care to give them to the newspapers for pub lication before they reached the sec rotary. That left them just about even. Mr, Dern got a better play for bis side in the movies, but the colonel got a few more paragraphs in the newspapers. Background Colonel Lindbergh has long been the publicity front for the aviation Industry. Anything ho says or does attracts Immediate country-wide at tention. All the other officials In the industry could shout themselves hoarse for a week and no one out . side the sound of their voices, would jfcnow they were speaking, f In his Job Colonel Lindbergh has earned as much money as his em ployers have given him, and prob ably more. He Is successfully dramatizing be fore the public tfie fight of the avia tion companies to regain their air mall contracts. He has an edge on Secretary Dern for the long run, be cause his name is bigger. Inside The Whits House was never strong Xor the move to make up with Colo nel Lindbergh. It was Mr. Dern's idea. He re ceived the Whlto House O. K. to go head with it, but the White House group carefully kopt hands off. There la apparently nothing in the tory going around in the Inner circle that while the colonel was talking to Mr. Dern he received a message from the White House asking him to call. He Is reported to have stuffed ' the message in his pocket without a "yes, no or thank you," as he went off to lunch with Dern. Mr. Dern told everyone from the start that Colonel Lindbergh would NOT be Invited to the White House. The mllltaiy aide of the president would have been the one to carry any such Invitation, and he dertes that he went near Colonel Lind bergh. Such an invitation would hardly .have been ottered in writing anyway. Rancor There Is bitterness backstage among the house Democrats. As many as 64 of them broke the unwritten law In the veterans' pay cut fight. The law says that the party caucus controls a man's vote. A caucus la a secret meeting of party members. If Vie caucus majority decides on a certain course of action, all mem bers are bound to support that ac tion. The only excuse that can be offered Is for a member to write his party leader a letter and say he is In honor bound to vote otherwise because he has pledged himself to his constitu ents on that specific issue In his campaign for election. Thet Democrats held a caucus on the veterans' pay cut matter. They Toted overwhelmingly for a certain course. Next day on the floor 131 - vtniatri the caucus action. I Only 87 of them can say they ex cused themselves In the proper way. The other 84 must confess ignor ance or admit deliberate desertion. Omen The oldest members of the house tartnot recall anything like that hap pening before. In an earlier day it Ttould have called for a showdown between the leaders and the person nel, but the present house loaders are Inclined to be lenient. The situation shows a new under line, sentiment In the house. The bovs there are reverting to type, after a year of good behavior. They are thinking more about getting themselves re-elected than anything else. The administration Is not Inclined to make an issue of the matter, any more than It did with the revolters on the St. Lawrence treaty in the mate. Some day, however, voting will have to be made a test of loyalty, or consress will start running wild.

(AP) The army will fly the malls again on Monday with routes reduced to a skeleton, but nevertheless extending from ocean to ocean. Coincident with this announce ment, America's . promler war-time ace. Col. Eddie Rickenbacker asserted today that President Roosevelt should "purge his official family of traitor ous elements" which "misadvised him on cancellation of private airmail contracts." The man who sent 26 enemy planes plunging to the French terrain, made this statement before the senate post office committee In a continuation of the testimony taking In which Col. Charles A. Lindbergh and Clarence Chamberlain yesterday attacked an nulment of the contracts. Eight routes were penciled across a map of the United Statea at the war department for the resumption of airmail carrying by the army. It was scheduled to begin Monday at 12:01 a. m. The routes follow: New York to Chicago; Chicago to San Francisco; Boston to New York; Chicago to Dallas;. Salt Lake City to San Diego; Salt Lake City to Seattle; Cheyenne to Denver, and Now York to Atlanta and Jacksonville. Army planes were grounded last Sunday after the president had as serted that deaths among the filers must stop, since then Intensive prep arations have been taken to resume flying on a curtailed schedule which would assure the aviators' safety. Rickenbacker Is vice president of North American Aviation. Inc., par ent company of Eastern Air Trans port, Western Air Express and Trans continental & Western Air. Inc., for which Lindbergh Is technical adviser. These three companies held mall agreements prior to .the cancellation of all domestic awards on February 19 because of the postofflce depart ment's decision, since vigorously dis puted, that the contracts were award ed through fraud. . But, Rickenbacker said the loss was not that of the aircraft Industry or the air transportation Industry. "That is incidental," he said. "That can be wiped off the slate and for gotten. We can forget we ever owned an airplane. , Many May Doubt He said "the question" was that "millions" might doubt because of the cancellation that other of the president's accomplishments "the NRA, CWA, gold content and many more" might prove as "big a mis take" as the contract action. He said that up until the mall epi sode the president "has been guided In a great measure by the divine spir it." For this reason, he said, he urged the elimination of the "traitors few In number, I presume, who hive mis advised, or advised, without giving full facts, and have caused him (the president) to act contrary to Amer ican principles and American Judg ment." The aviator said, however, after Senator McKellar (D., Tenn.) called for a halt that "he did not Intend to attack the president," and "It Is my confidence In him which I do not wish destroyed." Senator Logan (D., Ky.), who has been critical of the administration's air bill, could not sea "any auch thing' as an attack on the president In Rlckonbacker's, outburst and Sena tor Barbour (R., N. J.), agreed with the Kentuckian, Before his Impromptu address. Rick enbacker read a prepared statement to the committee on the administra tion's permanent airmail bill. He as sailed the clause which would bar the private companies from awards If they press claims against the govern ment. Virtually, every witness has tsken a verbal slam at this section and It Is to be eliminated. DILLINGER FADES PORT HURON, Mich., March 17.

(Associated Press Photos- FIERY DEATH TO MAIL PILOT TEST FLIGHT Army Reserve Pilot Plunges to Earth Tragedy Toll 'Grows Assigned to Regular Service Monday CHEYENNE, Wyo., Mar. 17. (AP) Preparing for resumption of air mall flying by the army, Monday, Lieut. H. G. Richardson, 35, of Chey .enne,. reserve air corps officer, dived 1,000 feet to a flaming death on a teat flight late today. Just two days after he had been ordered into active flying riarvlce. The spot about three miles wost of here where he crashed Is only a short distance from the scene of the death of two other army mail fllera in a crash and fire on the night of March 0. They were Lieut. A. R. Kerwln, of March Field, Calif., and Lieut. P. L. Howard, of Barksdale Field, Shrevo port. La. The day after their deaths, which brought to ten the fatalities In the brief time the army flew the mall, the order to curtail air mall service temporarily was Issued by President Roosevelt. Lleuts. Kerwln and Howard had Just taken off for Salt Lake City on a test flight, similar to that of Lieut. Richardson today. As Lieut. Richardson's craft plum meted to earth and caught afire, scores of persons from nearby Fort Warren and the Cheyenne airport rushed to the rescue.

(AP) A rumbling undertone of labor troub le sounded today through the admin istration's recovery theme. While national recovery administra tion officials strove by persuasion and plea to block a strike in the automo bile Industry, threatened Wednesday unless "extraordinary concessions" are made, union men flatly .refused to accept the railroad managers' request, that a ten per cent wage cut bo ex tended after expiration of the agreed June 30 deadline. The railroad union's action was taken in the face of President Roose velt's expressed desire that the ex isting be extended six months after the expiration date. Awaiting the results of a meeting of employers representatives In New York Monday, William Green, presi dent of the federation Issued a state ment asserting the trouble which threatens the Industry Is "directly traceable to the attempt of tho man ufacturers to Imposo company unions upon their workers." Meanwhile, the potentialities of an other major Industrial conflict arose In the pointed and blunt rejection by representatives of railroad labor of a proposal that the prevailing tea per cent wage cut be continued for six months beyond it scheduled expira tion date next June 30.

(Associated Press Photo) CLAIMS ANOTHER L Suicide Try by Aide in Swindle Scandal Tragic Events Mount in World's Most Sensational Crime PARIS, March 17.

However, the government at pres ent believes, that "talk" is the "es sence of America's stiver boosting plan" and this "suits China," The outlook for increased trade with the United States, tho spokes man said, was never brighter and Mr. Roosevelt's 69-rent dollar accounts for the situation.
