Delegation From Island Territory Supplies Features For Portland Meeting Winona Love, Rose Tribe Catch Fancy of News; Photographers, Reporters" By JOSEPH It. FABRIXGTON Managing Editor of The Star-Bulletin, and delegate to the Pacific Coast Advertising Club's convention PORTLAND, June 23. Honolulu will be the scene of the 1928 convention of the Pacific Coast Advertising Clubs' association because of, first, the fight made by the delegation to the 1926 convention in San Francisco arid, second, the showing made in the convention just ended in Portland. Award of this annual meeting to the territory was unanimous. Questions concerning accommodations in Honolulu and the ability of the local club to arrange a suitable program were quickly and satisfactorily answered with the arrival of the delegation in Portland.

The Hawaiian delegation probably attracted more attention than any other, chiefly because of the presence of Miss Winona Love and Mrs. Rose Tribe, who were in constant demand from the time of their arrival. Photographers were quick to pick them up and Portland's newspapers featured them strongly from the start.

"ALOHA" FOB MAITLAND MATE First Lieutenant Charles Linton Williams of heeler Field was killed shortly after 10 this morning when the army-airplane in which he was flying as a farewell compliment to Lieuts. Maitland and Hegenberger crashed into the sea off Niu-maln, Waikiki. From Hawaiian department headquarters at Fort Shafter the following statement was made to The Star-Bulletin at 11 o'clock today: "This morning while acting as a member of the escort squadron which accompanied the ship of Lieuts.

aMitland and Hegenberger on their departure for the coast, First Lieut. Charles Linton Williams of the I9th Pursuit Squadron, Wheeler' Fieiar who was flying a PW 9-A pursuit plane, crashed into the water near, the steamship Maui off Fort De Russy. "The steamship Maui immediately put down life boats but was unable to rescue Lieutenant Williams, he having been taken down under the water with the plarie. "Rescue efforts have been initiated by the army to recover the body of Lieutenant Williams. "Lieutenant Williams graduated from the V.

S. military academv November, 1918, and was assigned to. the fantry as a second lieutenant. In 1919 and 1921 he was assigned to the air corps and in 1924 was promoted to first lieutenant. Lieutenant Williams was born in Arizona in 1898, son of an army officer, and was appointed to the military academy from Tennessee.

He was a graduate of the following service schools: Air Service Primary Flying school, 1922; Air Service Advanced Flying school. Bombardment course, 1922; Air Service Technical school. Photographic Corps, 1923. Lieutemfnt Williams was unmarried. Last summer during tactical exercises in the air with Lieutenant Williams was in collision in the air with lieutenant Wisehart.

At that time he saved himself by making a parachute descent. The pursuit plane, "one of a squadron of 24 which were-in the "air thi3 morning for an aloha demonstration to Lieutenants Lester Maitland and Albert Hegenberger, sailing on the Maul, fell into the sea off the Niumalu hotel pier at 10:40 a. m. today. It disappeared immediately.

No trace of the plane or the pilot had.been found at 11:10 o'clock although a navy seaplane landed on the spot at which the pursuit ship struck the water 30 seconds after the accident occurred. A boat was lowered from the Maui to aid in the search. Witnesses at the beach said that the plane was one of six diving at the Maui from the stern and then "zooming" up ahead of the steamer. The ship wrecked was the fifth to dive. Instead of pulling up it continued straight on into the water, struck with a great splash and disappeared.

The Maui promptly stopped, backed close to the spot and lowered its boat and pay final honor to the Pacific air conquei-ors. Last Wednesday morning, at 6:29 o'clock, Lieuts. Hegenberger and Maitland landed their Fokker at Wheeler Field after being 25 hours 40 minutes in the air out of the Oakland airport. This morning they embarked on the return trip to the mainland, which they will enjoy leisurely and over a period of six and a half days. It might be said that the ship has been placed at their disposal.

The finest suite -aboard will be their quarters during the voyage. -As the Maui backed, into the stream and began turning to get her nose toward the harbor entrance, the siren on Aloha tower shrieked a final farewell to the aviators.

Lester Maitland and Albert Hegenberger, A. USA, got away from Honolulu this morning after one of the most spectacular farewells the city has ever witnessed.

Shortly before 10 o'clock when they appeared, as if by magic, in the very center of a great crowd of men, women and children jammed inside Pier 20, pandemonium broke loose. The throng, taken completely by surprise, had time only to throw a myriad of leis in the general direction of the trans-Pacific fliers' heads before the airmen were hustled inside the enclosure in front of the Matson steamer Maui'g gangplank. And then the crowd surged, 10 deep, against the fence and cheered and shouted alohas at the two i imiling men who conquered the hitherto unexplored airways over the. Pacific in a tri-motored Fokker monoplane. Cameras Work Overtime Motion picture cameras hummed as the fliers courteously turned for a moment toward the crowd.

Hundreds of "stills' were taken. Men shouted hoarse goodbyes. Women screamed farewells. Little children waved their hands. "We have had a great time, and we're mighty sorry we have to leave," said Lieutenant Hegen- "A bully time, and we hope to come back some day," said Lieutenant Maitland.

"When will you come back?" someone asked. "Dont. know." said Lieutenant Hegenberger. "Maybe we'll fly back some day. Who can tell?" The fliers are on their way, to Washington to make an official report of their trans-Pacific flight to the war 'department and the army air office.

Indications are that they will be lavishly entertained at many points while en route east. With lieuts. Maitland and Hegenberger as they boarded the Maui were Lieut. CoL John H. Howard, chief of the air corps, Hawaiian department; CoL A.

G. Lott, chief of staff, Hawaiian department: Col. William Kelly, adjutant general, Hawaiian department, and Lieut. Howard Craig, A. with the air office, Hawaiian department, who has served as aide to the fliers since their arrival.

Blossoms Everywhere Both men were laden with leis. wore them about their shoulders and carried them in their arms. Aboard the Maui their suite was a veritable flower garden, with great baskets and bouquets of lovely blossoms in evidence everywhere. After going aboard the fliers responded once again to the demands of movie cameramen and photographers. Many prominent Honolu-lans, including business men and government officials, went aboard to bid them farewell.

A few moments after 10 o'clock the Hawaiian band began playing Aloha Oe" and the Maui, her gangplanks down, began backing slowly into the stream. Then a mighty cheer burst from hundreds of throats as Lieuts. Maitland and Hegenberger appeared high up on the ship's bridge. Shortly after the Maui began backing out, the fliers started taking off their leis and tossing them down upon the heads of the crowd. Sev-tral of them fell where a group of army officers were standing.

No Favoritism Shown But no favoritism was shown by the visitors. They showered their leis also upon the general throng, and there was a lively scramble to retrieve the wreaths as souvenirs. The throwing of leis continued until the Maui had backed out of range of the wharf. It was perhaps the most spectac- ular farewell Honolulu has ever witnessed, and one at which enthusiasm ran high. There were flowers and leis for the visitors 4 enormous quantities, and those were not actually handed the lieutenants were sent aboard.

It was as if the entire city had gone to Pier 10 to witness tha departure, Ml ,4 -rfu 3 GAVE UP HIS BEHIND, BELIEF OF EX-GOVERNOR City Must Speed Up and Develop Her Beauties, G. R.

British Labor Leader Opens Attack On Changes In the House of Lords (Associated Press by Naval Radio) LONDON.

July 6. Motion of censure of 'the Baldwin government was made in the house of commons todav by J. Ramsay Mac-Donald, British labor 4 leader and former premier. The motion was made on the basis of the government's scheme for reform of the house of lords. MacDonald expressed regret that tne government should have put forth a scheme embodying such fundamental changes without a mandate from toe people.

The motion declared that the' scheme gerrwnanders the constitution in the interests of the Conservative party: that it deprives the house of commons of control of finance; that It entrenches the lords on an hereditary basis: and that it takes from the electors their power to deal with the upper house. Premier Stanley Baldwin, In replying, said there was no question involved of the house of lords becoming serious rival to the house or commons, since there would be no power there to make or unmake ministers nor any equal rights in enactment of finance measures.

He arose hesitatingly, groped a moment for support, and with obvious effort of will took several faltering steps alone. Then, with the war hero's arm resting lightly on the shoulder of the trans-Atlantic flier, he walked slowly but surely toward the entrance of Napoleon's tomb.
