Where Plane Is Believed To Have Been Forced Down When Gas Gives Out - Two Deadly Poitons Have Been Discovered NAVAL HEADQUARTERS, SAN FRANCISCO, Sept., 1. (United News) Disaster undoubtedly has fallen upon the PN-9, No. 1, the big navy seaplane that apparently has been' forced by a lack of fuel to abandon its San Francisco-Hono-' lulu flight and descend into the turbulent watery east of the Hawaiian islands. ' . 7' A group of anxious navy officials watched incoming radio messages here Tuesday night as guardian ships rushed to the rescue cf the aviators, who were believed fighting for their lives in heavy seas that threaten their plane with destruction. The last bulletin issued to the press told of the destroyer ' Farragut, the plane tender Aroostook, and the mine sweeper Tangar speeding under full steam toward the spot, 185 miles from the island of Maui, where Commander John Rodgers' 1 plane was reported at 4:12 p- m., when the last radio from her was heard. . ..'

It Is hardly expected the president will da any such thing. Must Appoint a Democrat But Haney holds a recess appoint ment, and the president can send up another nomination for his place when congress reconvenes, thus au tomatically "firing" the Oregon man. A democrat must be appointed to fill Haney's place, but Cooiidge has the field from which to pick. Naming of another man probably will be the fuse to set oft an explo sion from democrats In the senate, and once burning, the fire may crackle merrily.
