Exhausted Fuel Supply Halts Flight By PAIL MALLON (Copyright. 1934, by Paul Mallon) WASHINGTON, Dee. 4. It U cus tomary for everyone to start view ing congress with alarm about this time of year, mere seema to be lese of It this year because of the popular Im p r e a a i o n that President Roose velt domlnatea , the altuatlon. He certainly hae . so (ar. A private check up discloses that in the first 21 ' m o n t h a of his administration he has Issued almost orders. That means he made nearly 1000 new laws. This Is a record. It la almost fifty a month, or two a day, not counting Sundays. In the same time congress has passed 1332 measures, meeanlng 1332 new laws. Most of these decrees by the presi dent and by congress are unimport ant. Mr. Roosevelfa mostly related to NRA codes. Some of the congres sional acts merely gave Mr. Roose velt authority to act. Yet. In a general way. the com parative figures will give you a general Idea of the extent to which presidential Importance has groTin and congressional authority dimin ished under the new deal. Paul MaUoo 1000 executive There are other more algnlflcant underlying factors In the present congressional altuatlon. The truth Is that this coming meeting of the newly elected legis lators Is not going to be a congrca atonat session at all, but rather a caucus of the new polyglot demo cratic party. There are not enough . republicans left to make It interest ing, but there are enough different" kinds of democrat to prevent it from being orderly. At the bottom, the situation seems to be this: The congressmen gener ally fear Mr. Roosevelt, but few agree with him wholeheartedly; nearly all who have arrived here, so far, seem to feel that they could still do better than the president has; each carries from one to half a dozen pet panaceas hidden In his skull. They can be expected to beat their breasts for him and raise hell for themselves. IN HONOLULU AREA1 , i Exhaustion of Gasoline On Flight From Oakland Forces Australian Flier to Water Float Two Days: SAV FRANCISCO. Dec. 4. (AP) The Globe wire If m com pany', after working with the President Coolldge at 1:50 p.m. today said that llm's plane had not been found, despite widely circulated reports the trans-Pacific had been located on the water. The Globe company said: "A false rumor, the origin of which U unknown, confused the Presi dent Coolldge with that of the 11 m plane. 'The llm plane has not been found." The Glebe company Is a sub sidiary of the Hollar line steam ship compaliy. which operates the President Coolldge. Mr. Roosevelfa patronaee club hfts been shortened considerably since the last session. Most, of the 'Rood Jobs already have been given away. Yet h retains more than the ordi nary amount of small privileges and preferment to barter with. More Important Is the fact that congress as a whole seems still to be as unpopular as ever with the coun try. Last week there was a try-out of k new piny here. The producers discovered, to their amazement, that tbe scene which drew the greatest applause was one in which George Washington physically th re w two congressmen out of his headquarters with scorn and derision. Such a feel ing, more than anything w111 work In Mr. Roosevelt's favor. The result will be that the ad ministration generally will prevail, but It will be a harder Job than yon think, and frequent compromises will be necessary. The drought has passed out of the headlines, but its real effect is only now beginning to be measurable. Animal feed supplies have reached such a dangerously low level that actual Import of corn, soy beans. oat and hay are now starting. The government curtailment program and the drought have cut the supply to the smallest level since 1881. AAA'era admit, off the record, that. If there is a heavy winter, feed stocks probably will not be suffic ient to rarry livestock through to spring. Tet if the winder is open and pastures remain available the lack of snow will offrr another drought menace for next year. Tills dilemma has the AAA all tied up In knots. While one division Is announcing plans for new crop cuts next year, another Is moving earth, and trytng to move heaven, to eonww feed stuff s. HONOLULU, Dec. 4. (AP; Gaso line exhausted and the course to Hon olulu lying toward the north, the Hawaii-Australia plane carrying C. T. P. Ulm and two companions alighted on the Pacific ocean near here to day. Messages from the plane to radio KYG, the Globe wireless station here, Indicated the plane reached the sur face without mishap. . Its exact location, however, was not known. Army and navy planes and the coast guard cutter Itasca already were making a search. Both before and after going down Ulm sent a continuous stream of SOS messages. They were most clear ly heard by the Dollar liner President Coolldge, whose radio operator haz arded the opinion the plane might be north of the Islands, Instead of south, as Ulm't own messages has In dicated. - V"... - . - - Can Float Two Days The Mutual wireless station here picked up a message at 0:08 ft. m. Hawaila time (11:38 ft. m. P. S. T.); (2:38 p. m., E. S. T.), saying: "Going down Into sea now. Plane will fioat couple of days." Navy planes repoVed they had reached a point as far as 60 miles south of the Island without sighting the Ulm plane. Lieutenant Ulm's surrender to fate fpllowed a two-hour fight to ascer tain his position before dwindling gasoline supply forced him down. The fliers took off from the Oak land, Cal., airport at 3:41 p. m. yes terday on the 2408-mtle flight to Honolulu, the first of a series which they expect to rarry them to Aus tralia. As far as messages from the plane showed, .none of the plane's crew sighted land at anytime, and they had not . been able to pick up the Makapuu Point radio beacon, which had been in continuous operation since midnight. Asks for Help At 8:24 a. m. (Hawaii time) the President Coolldge picked up another message: "We are turning Into wind. Come pick us up." The Itasca was already well out Into the Motokal channel when the plane sent out word she was going down. The cutter was heading to ward the southeast, on the theory that the Ulm plane would be found somewhere In that direction. This apparently was based on Ulm's own radio signals. The President Coolldge reported at 9:30 a. m. It had picked up a mes sage reading "On water now." The SOS signals, the ship said, continued to come unceasingly, showing the plane's radio was still working, al though its signals were weak.

(AP) three towns ' with a total population of 6.500 persons were re ported as probably destroyed by an earthquake In Ocotepeque depart ment, in an official measage today from 3inuapa, the new capital of Oco tepeque. The three towns named were San Jorge, population 2,000; La Encarna cion, 3,000, and San Fernando, 1,508. ' Owing to the wreckage of com mutations systems, the government had difficulty in determining any de tails regarding the fate of the in habitants or the exact time of the quake, but it was regarded as prob able that the shock was the aame which struck Honduras day before yesterday. A report from Ssn Salvador said the Honduran village of Santa Rita in the Copan area was destroyed by the quake. The western region of the republic was rocked all day yesterday. Several houses were destroyed and others damaged In the Important city of La Esperan7A and the population there was sleepless throughout last night.

( AP) Sena or Borah, who demanded a reorgani zation of the Republican party, re ceived a challenge today from Senator Coueens (R.. Mich.) to take the chair-' manship and suggest a new plat form. He said Bornh, like Senator Reed of Pennsylvania, campaigned against aspects of the New Deal but "neither one was successful because they of fered no substitutes for the programs they criticized." Fletcher Refuses Resign The Michigan senator's entry Into the party controversy came shortly after Henry P. Fletcher, chairman of the Republican national committee, had flatly declined to resign at Bo rah's request. To step out at this time. Fletcher said, "would plunge the party Into confusion." Representative Fish (R., N. Y.) also took lasue with Borah, saying that while the party should "UberaliM and humanize Its policies, Fletcher should not be called upon to resign, "pro vided he Is willing to go along in favor of liberal policies." Coucens Surprises Couzens' statement, coming from one who has frequently voted wttn the party's western Independent wing where demands for reorganization are now arising, caused some surprise. "I suggest," he said, "that those who are supporting Mr. Borah's pro pasal that Mr. Fletcher resign offer Mr. Borah the chairmanship of the Republican national committee.
