(AP) Re freshed from a long sleep and a "nice" breakfast. Amelia Earhart stayed In her hotel Bulte today ana discussed briefly her non-stop flight from Mexico, D. P., to Newark, N. J. It was an unexciting trip, she said, and she experienced her "most dis quieting moment" during the mile and one-half takeoff yesterday in the rarlfied atmosphere of the Mexi can airport. The port Is 7000 leet above sea level. "Otherwise," said the aviatrix, "the trip was uneventful but enjoyable." In Air 14 Hours. The plane which had carried her acre-; the Atlnnttc and from Hawaii to California touched Its wheels to the brightly lighted field at 9:28:50 p. m., eastern standard time, 14 hours, 22 minutes and SO seconds after the take-off. Police lines meant nothing to the crowd. The spectators swarmed about the plane and' Miss Earhart had to abandon it to sturdier guardians. With police cars for opening wedges, the flier slowly made her way to a hangar. Almost there, she met her husband, George Palmer Putnam, who reached her side only after prolonged football tactics by a bluecoat escort. Husband Irked. "fcj;xlco Is more civilized than V-Mvark." exclaimed t?.e publisher. Mi3 Earhart appeared to enjoy the excitement, although she later de tained It as the hardest part of the tr1.?. She disclosed she had found the Gulf of I;xlco covered by a great layer of clouds. This she escaped by soaring to 9000 feet, only to find another great range of cloud moun tains built up ahead. And for more than 100 miles she flew with clouds Soth above and below her. S-.e had headwinds at first, then unwinds, the filer said. She aver aged 151 miles an hour, flying slowly enough to conserve fuel and arriv ing with a little left In her tanks. Mildr:.

"A good friend, but not a special friend," she said of him. (Associated Press Photo) (Continued from Page One.) Roosevelt Is goin back to Hyde Park to attend the cows. The official ex planation seems to be true as far ns It goes. James has not been In good health and the estate needs managing. The favored supplemental guess, however. Is that his business activi ties were embarrassing to the White House. No relative of a president can be In business without causing embarrassment. No matter how in dependently a presidential son may conduct his business affairs, com petitors, enemies and even friends are bound to assume that he hah power and pull beyond their reach. The mere existence of such a situ ation usually causes a flood of sneaky Btortes which cannot be effectively answered or denied. Withdrawal of James also Is an other indication that the adminis tration is caulking the senilis for the next campaign. President Roosevelt first made known his attitude on the bonus In April. 1932. In an interview with James J. Montague, of the North American Newspaper Alliance, the president then said: "I don't see how. as a matter of practical sense, a government run ning behind two billion dollars an nually, can consider the anticipation of bonus payments until It has a balanced budget, not only on paper, but with a surplus of cash in the treasury." But In that Siime interview, Mr. Roosevelt also said budpet deficits should not be permitted to continue for more than one year. theory that the court decision ruins federal pensioning for all time. Most large rlalroads have pension systems of their own, anyway. The liberals have been secretly afraid all along that Justice Roberts would desert them. They r?garded the labor decision as the first con firmation of their fears. NRA officials now privately confess their organization is In a state of "progressive paralysis." but It con tinues to take on new workers. Six were hired in the last two weeks. 4 Over four hundred children from the fourth, fifth and sixth grades of the Medford elementary schools will present a program of songs and folk dances in the high school gym nasium Friday at 7:30 p. m.

Children singing in the chorus have been trnined by Miss Eleanor Curry, Roosevelt; Mrs. Eunice Smith, Lincoln; Miss Alice Cromar. Wash ington, and Miss Gertrude Ahlstrom, Jackson, and Mrs. Esther Leake, mu sic supervisor. The combined choruses will be directed by Mrs. Leake and the special numbers by the music teachers of the respective schools. There is no admission and the public is very cordially Invited.

The opinion further holds that it matters not a whit whether the ofifce pays nothing much but honor. The ruling affected seven Demo cratic legislators, and was no balm to state or Jackson county Bourbon councils.

Icai Democrats speak hlqhly of Taylor's ability, but argue "what is sauce for the goose, la sauce for the gander." They also feel that Inasmuch as the county court hns a majority of Republicans, they would probably appoint another Republican. A young Democratic lender said: "Taylor is a good Republican, and we would rather have him than anybody the court, would appoint." "I have not closely rend the ruling of the attorney-general." Mr. Taylor said this morning. "I held the posi tion of deputy federal court clerk, before I was elected to the legisla ture. It is my understanding that the ruling does not apply to me, but only legislators who accepted the positions after they were elected to the legislature. I do not come under that classification."
