THE SUN. BALTIMORE, FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 27, 1930 first and all got there about the same time. This does not mean 7.000 or 80 rushed the plane. The great mass of people were kept safely behind ropes, but there must have been over 1,000 who, either as friends of the committee members or otherwise, got past the barriers, Whalen, Too, Caught In Jam There was bedlam as soon as the Southern Cross drew to a stop. Half dozen sound movie trucks closed in on it and started grinding cameras.

The ambassador, the high commissioner and Mr. Whalen in a Panama hat and blue shirt were caught in the swirl. Later the said he was able to say "congratulations," but he never heard the answer. A big basket of roses was thrown in the general direction of the flyers and then the police managed to clear a way. By this time the ambassador was standing fifty yards from the smoking a cigarette.

His hands were shaking. Mr. Whalen was alongside him. It is the first time Mr. Whalen has been out in the cold at a reception like this since he took on the job of official greeter.

Inspected By Customs The procession into the reception room was not less disorderly than the greeting. The Ambassador was caught in a crowd that was told get to hell out of here" by a policeman and shoved onward. He got a moment's when a spectator yelled out grace, who he was. In the comparative quiet of the reception room, after thad customs and immigration officials looked the crew over and found nothing wrong with them, they were able to say few words that understandable. Discussing his Pacific flight with this Atlantic flight, Kingstord-Smith declared that "the difficulties were of a different.

character" and the two therefore could not be compared. "The great difficulty of the Pacific flight was that of navigation--hitting A small objective (the Fiji Islands) at the end of several thousand miles. The difficulties of the Atlantic were largely ones of weather. Compass Gives Trouble "Then, of course, in the Atlantic flight there was that trouble with the Apparently ours began its compass. crazy variations and alterations at about the same place that the Bremen, in its Atlantic crossing, had the same troubles.

"It will require A good deal of study of our record before we can determine the probable cause of our difficulties in navigating after we got 200 miles of the Newfoundland coast. None of our instruments failed. I don't want any one to think that I 801 blaming the instruments, but for two or three hours the magnetic variations altered all along so rapidly and overswung so constantly that if it had been for the radio we should not have known where we were, and by the time we might have found out it might have been too late." The 1.100-mile fight from Harbor Grace was accomplished in fifteen hours and twenty-two minutes. Captain King ford-Smith had hoped to arrive at least an hour and a half earlier but the headwinds delayed him. Flies Over Nova Scotia The take-off at.

Harbor Grace was perfect. The: Southern Cross took a course that led over Nova Seotia, passing over Halifax at noon thence down the New England coast. The weather was. clear except for a few patches of clouds and the plane was in constant wireless communication with shore stations. Passing about one hundred miles east of Portland, Maine, the aviators deviated slightly from their course to circle over Lynn, as a tribute to Capt.

Frederick C. Melville, of the Byrd Antarctic expedition, who was receiving a welcome from home the citizens of Lynn. Five minutes later they flew over Boston and then headed for Roosevelt Field. They passed over the airport and continued on over downtown Manhattan, returning half an hour later to land. Headed by a police escort they were driven to a hotel here and retired early to prepare for tomorrow's official welcoming ceremonies, Today's Official Welcome Will Be Broadcast New York, June 26 -New York's official welcome to the crew of the Southern Cross is to be described in two broadcasts tomorrow.

Beginning about 11.45 A. Eastern daylight time, the National Broadcasting and the Columbia Broadcasting chains of coast-to-coast stations will present details of the city's reception to Squadron Leader Charles Kingsford-Smith and his mates. The voices of Mayor James J. Walker and those of the flyers are expected to be heard during the hour's broadcast. Approves Bill To Rebuild Three U.S.

FACES HEAVY LOSS OVER 1929 WHEAT Farm Board Not To Dump Supply On Market To Compete With Present Crop BEEF PRICE CUT URGED Live Stock Expert Says Retail Cost Should Be Reduced To Meet Wholesale Figures Washington, June 26 (P)---In a couple of statements fraught with possibilities the Farm Board laid a heavy hand today on the long precarious wheat and livestock markets. C. B. Denman, board member representing livestock, said in effect that the retail price of beef should be reduced immediately wherever it already had not been brought in line with the sharp slump in wholesale beef and cattle prices, and George S. Milnor, president and general manager of the Grain Stabilization Corporation, announced that 1929 wheat held by the corporation would not be put on the market in competition with the 1930 crop.

Over 50,000,000 Bushels The latter statement admittedly was capable of the interpretation that the Government may be called upon to stand the loss on from 50,000,000 to 75,000,000 bushels of wheat taken out of the 1929 crop. said Phis organization had Milnor withdrawn from the market approximately three times the amount of the 1029 increase in the visible supply. Private trade estimates have placed the increase at from 000 to 20,000,000 bushels but the Department of Agriculture estimates it at about 25,000,000 bushels. Bought At $1.12 To 81.25 Milnor listed one hope that the stabilization corporation may be able to dispose of its holdings. If prices rise to the level at which the wheat was purchased, the corporation will renew market operations, he said.

Farm circles recalled, however, that most of the "stabilization wheat" was purchased at from $1.12 to $1.25 on the loan value basis established by the Farm Board when cash wheat was selling near the $1 mark. Wheat had recovered today only two cents a bushel from the lowest levels since 1914, when July contracts were filled at cents a bushel. Even if wheat rose to the loan values and the corporation started to sell, it still would suffer a heavy loss in storage charges. Enropean Demand Big Factor. Another element of apprehension was seen in the fact that for the last two or three years wheat prices have failed to turn upward in the fall and early winter when prices usually have advanced sufficiently to offset storage prices.

Some economists expressed the view that wheat hardly could be expected to show much improvement over the current price range unless Europe, still almost inactive in demand for North American grain, came into the market or the Canadian crop fell far below expectations. It was said at the board that Milnor's statement was issued primarily to bolster up a sagging market caused by lack of export, the influx of the new winter wheat crop and the trade's timid operations in the absence of definite assurance that stabilization wheat would not be thrown on the market until the new crop is out of the way. To Stimulate Use of Beet Denman's statement, it was was issued in the belief that lower retail prices would stimulate beef consumption, eliminate the temporary surplus of dressed meat and bring about more stable prices for livestock. There is no national surplus of beef cattle, Denman said, but the temporary surplus of beef has forced live prices down in accord with a reduction of 20 to. 37 per cent.

in the wholesale price of beef. Nevada Still At Tail End Of States In Population Indiana Shows Increase, Preliminary Census Figures Give ing 3,227,522 Washington, June 26 -Nevada, reporting a 1930 population of less than 100,000, made certain she would retain the position of last on the list of States ranked by population. But the 1930 census of 90,559 inhabitants showed a 16.9 per cent. gain from 1920 to 1930, as against a 5.5 decrease for the previous decadent, Unofficial tabulation of official figures showed the population in Indiana to be 3,227,522.

House Clears Way For Pension System For World War Veterans Passes Johnson Bill After Sustaining President's Veto Of Rankin Measure- Senate Expected To Liberalize Rates (Continued the Spanish War pension bill, but the measure was passed over his veto.

Representative Garner, Democratic leader, and other minority spokesmen today warned the Republican majority that it was riding toward another veto in initiating a pension bill which the Senate is almost sure to amend in this manner, First Fight Over Gag Rule With almost a full attendance and with the galleries crowded to an unusual degree, the pension issue came up immediately on the convening of the House. The first fight came over adoption of the rule under which the proposed Johnson bill would be passed after brief debate and without amendment. Led by Representative Garner and Representative Rankin, whose father died in Mississippi yesterday and who remained in Washington under a heavy strain for the fight, the Democrats sought to block the adoption of the rule. Their efforts were unavailing and by a strict party vote of 227 to 139 the plan of was carried. The President's veto message had arrived by this time and its reading interrupted the stormy session.

In a lengthy document prepared after consultation with Secretary Mellon and General Hines, of the Veterans' Bureau, the President atacked the Rankin bill as unfair to the veterans. "In sentiment and sympathy," the veto message read, "I should desire no greater satisfaction than to support, just measures which are proposed for their benefit. But I want a square deal between veterans--not unjust discriminations between special groups--and I do not want wasteful or unnecessary expenditures." Attacks Disability Clause The President attacked especially the provision of the Rankin bill which would have created a presumption that all disabilities incurred by veterans up to this year were of service origin. "The practical effects of this enactment of a fictitious presumption into law are widespread," the President said. "It creates a long train of injustices and inequalities.

The first is to place men of this class, who have in fact been disabled in civil since the war upon the same basis the life, men who were wounded in battle and suffered the exposures of the trenches. But a second injustice immediately arises. "The Veterans' Bureau estimated that there are somewhere in the neighborhood of 380,000 possible cases of disability incurred in civil life since DEMAND TO BE MADE THAT HUSTON QUIT Party Chiefs Agree That Executive Committee Call For Chairman's Resignation York Bureau of The New York, June 26 -The Herald Tribune will publish tomorrow the following dispatch from its Washington Bureau: Two groups of Republican national leaders recently have waited upon Claudius H. Huston and found him unwilling to give up the Republican national chairmanship. Consequently, party leaders have agreed that there should be a meeting of the executive committee to demand his resignation.

Unless this is forthcoming soon after Congress adjourns the leaders anticipate difficulty about raising funds for the Congressional campaigns in the fall. Within the last few days, it transpires, seven "Young Guard" Senators held an indignation conference and drew up a joint request for Mr. Huston's resignation, which they promptly laid before him. He declined. Signers Of Resignation Request The paper bore the signatures of Senators Allen, of Kansas; Steiwer, Oregon: Thomas, Idaho: Fess, Ohio: Walcott.

Connecticut: Goldsborough, Maryland, and Townsend, Delaware," Previously, fifteen national leaders of the party had waited on Chairman Huston at the Willard Hotel and individually and collectively appealed to him to step aside and spare the party unnecessary political embarrassment in the fall campaigns, The chairman was adamant. Patrick J. Hurley, Secretary of War, and Walter F. Brown, Postmaster-General, are said to have fared no better in personal pleadings with Mr. Huston.

The national chairman took the stand that 1 he had done nothing to warrant all this pressure for his retirement less than a year after he took the helm. Fifteen Leaders Who Saw Him The meeting of fifteen national leaders was brought about when the chairman's response to certain suggestions indicated that he had no intention of stepping down. This meeting was held several weeks ago when many leaders were in town for the Gridiron dinner. The group included David W. Mulvane, Kansas member of the Republican National Committee; Joseph R.

Nutt, Cleveland banker, treasurer of the committee; Ralph E. Williams, Oregon, vice-chairman; Charles H. Hilles, New York, member of the committee; Representative Fort, New Jersey, former committee secretary Daniel E. Pomeroy, New Jersey, member of the executive committee. and Senators Watson.

SURVEY INDICATES 2,000,000 JOBLESS Census Returns For Fourth Of U.S. Population Show 574,647 Unemployed LESS THAN ESTIMATES Preliminary Figures On Baltimore And 9 Maryland -Counties Give 18,357 Out Of Work Washington, June 26 (P)-Census returns on unemployment announced. today fixed the total of jobless persons in an area inhabited by one-quarter of the country's total population at 574,647.

These figures, the first announced from the national survey undertaken in April, indicated the total number able to work but unable to find jobs would be in the neighborhood of 2,000,000 which, Secretary Lamont commented, was considerably less than the estimates current as to the probable number of unemployed in the nation. Fair Sample, Says Lamont The first returns, Secretary Lamont added, constituted a fair sample of the country, since they gave the count from 756 counties and 75 cities scattered well over the continent, though no complete States were enumerated. The figures will be followed by more complete study as the Census Bureau receives its data, but included everything received up to Monday, The average of unemployment in cities was indicated to be three per slightly ahead of the national average. The absolute low of unemployment in a State was indicated in Arkansas, where but four-tenths of one per cent. of the persons visited were so classed.

The high for a single State was Nevada, with 4.5 per cent. of its population unemployed as far as counted. 4.3 Per Cent. Idle In Chicago Another high figure of unemployment came from a partial census of Chicago, where 4.3 per cent. of workless people were found on a compilation of somewhat less than half of the city's total inhabitants.

Among the larger industrial States, Pennsylvania was listed as indicating 2 per cent. unemployed; New York, 1.9 per Massachusetts, 3 per Michigan, 2.7 per and Illinois, 1.6 per cent. Ohio had 3.3 per cent. unemployed, while New Jersey, from which only three smaller cities reported, a count indicated 3.2 per cent. of unemployed among its urban population.

Taken From 29,264,480 Counted California showed 2.5 per cent. unemployed and Colorado 2.6 per cent. It was estimated that the total of unemployed given represented the jobless portion of a total population of 480, who were individually enumerated by the census agents. This is the first time in a number of years a national count of unemployment has been attempted. Baltimore And 9 Counties Show 18,357 Are Idle Bureau of The Washington, June 26-A total of 18,357 persons in nine counties of Maryland and the city of Baltimore were unemployed in April when the 1930 census was taken, according to preliminary figures announced today by William M.

GROWERS ALARMED Exporters Declare Order Is Reprisal As Result Of High Tarif Measure Bureau Washington, June 26-The British Embassy has sent a note to the State Department declaring a temporary embargo on certain types of American apples, it was learned today.

The purpose of the embargo is to keep out the apple maggot, partially prevalent in the New England and New York apple growing regions. culture said they did not believe Officials of the Department of Agriembargo seriously affect Virginia, since is relatively little of would, the maggot in the Virginia apple orchards. Some To Be Admitted The embargo is not against all American apples, and those of certain grades, properly inspected, will be admitted to Great Britain. The Department of Agriculture probably will be able to supply inspection facilities in order to move shipments, officials said. Officials of the British Embassy said the embargo was by no means a matter of retaliation but merely temporary measure aimed at giving British plant authorities an opportunity to study the disease and see what steps should be taken against it.

Winchester Growers Blame New Tariff markets. Others To Be Affected Dispatch to The Winchester, June 26 Commercial apple growers of the Winchester district said today they believed the issuance of an order at London prohibiting the importation of certain brands of American apples from July to November 15 WAS an act of reprisal as a result of the passage of the high tariff measure. Apple growers said the to be affected was S. Commercial No. 1," which is in great demand in England and other markets of the United Kingdom.

It also will prohibit the shipment of No. 2 grades and the unclassified grades. Another grade affected is S. Early Export." Trying To Find Reason George E. Petley, exporter, received a today from R.

Most of the apples so affected will have becomel matured by the middle of October, but by the time they are packed and shipped the peak will have passed. Growers Concerned Commercial apple growers of the entire belt of Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland and Southeastern Pennsylvania are concerned over the situation. They declare it will have the effect of making early fall varieties, usually exported, cheap and perhaps a drug on the home market.

It has been estimated by Federal agents that the apple districts of the four States contain approximately 000,000 apple trees, nearly all of which are of bearing age. The district immediately around Winchester is distinctly an export region. The Frederick crop usually is around 500,000 barrels. Of this number approximately barrels are utilized by by-product industries and seventy per cent. of the remainder have been going to British Winchester is said to be the biggest exporter of apples in the United States.

For several years Virginia has led Washington, New York, Michigan and all other States in apple exports, mainly to the United Kingdom. English firms maintain agents here all year and keep in touch constantly with fruit conditions in Virginia. The prohibition against American apples not only will affect the growers, but virtually every industry allied with apple growing, it was said.

Police Terrorizing Hungarian Peasantry Those Suspected Of Radical Views Rounded Up And Cruelly Beaten Guardian Budapest, June 26-The ever-grow-ling discontent of the Hungarian peasantry and agricultural laborers is provoking unrest all over the country. A general uprising is not likely, for the peasants have no time for organizations that could take collective action. Besides, the armed forces which the authorities can bring to bear almost instantaneously in any spot are overwhelming.

In the country districts the slightest attempt at anything that looks like a protest is mercilessly crushed. Peasants suspected of radical tendencies are arrested, often in large groups. On June 18 six men were arrested lat the Szonolk police. and The almost next day beaten they to death were found in terrible condition. Some of them seemed to have suffered permanent injuries.

Nevertheless, they were taken in chains to Mezotur. Whether they were beaten again is not known, but four days later the wife of one who came to see him found him unconscious on the prison floor.

U.S. MAY LIFT BAN ON ARMS FOR RUSS New Attitude Due To Probability Of Soviet Getting War Planes In Europe INFORMATION AWAITED Moscow Government Sought To Award Aircraft. Contract To Baltimore Concern from Page 1) the war amongst the 4,300,000 living veterans. By this legisiation all except somewhere between 75,000 and 100,000 of these men are excluded from this aid by the Government, except for benefits which they already receive by hospitalization, the bonus and insurance. This bill would, therefore, create a preferred group of onethird among the men who are sufferling from disabilities incurred in civil life since the war." Cost Estimated Up To $235,000,000 The President told the House that, according to the estimates of General Hines, the Rankin in bill would cost $110,000,000 the first year and 000,000 annually a little later on.

He also pointed out that it would become necessary in fairness to extend the presumptions it created to other veterans and that the cost of such extension might add another $150,000,000 or $200,000,000 a year to the outlay required. "It is disagreeable to point out these potentialities," the President wrote, "lest it be thought, that the Government begrudges its veterans. am not presenting these reasons in any such sense, but in order that Congress and the country may be apprised of the real magnitude of the burden, imposed and of the injustice arising from this legislation." Provisions Of Johnson BIll The disability allowances, as the pensions provided under Johnson bill are called, are as follows: For veterans suffering twenty-five per cent. disability, $12 a month; for fifty per cent. disabilitz, $18 a month; for seventy-five per cent.

disability, $24 a month, and for total disability, $40 a month. These allowances are payable only to veterans enlisting prior to November 11, 1918, who served for ninety days or more during the World War. Veterans with incomes large enough to be taxable under Federal law would not be entitled to claim pensions. Compensation of $25 a month independent of other allowances already payable under the existing law is authorized for all who suffered the loss of a foot hand or other veterans, member in active service. Tubercular patients are especially benefitted by a provision under which lay evidence will be accepted to prove the existence of this disease.

Heretofore tubercular veterans have had to have a doctor's certificate as to the origin of the disease in order to secure compensation. Compensation under the present law for disabilities incurred in line of duty runs up to $100 a month. The Great Game Of Politics By FRANK R. KENT (Continued from Page 1) conducted by local committees in State and district. It is hard to conceive what a national chairman could find to do in the next seven months, except to keep the publicity department functioning.

All needed for that is a competent man, enough money to pay him and casual supervision. Under the circumstances it does seem that the worry about not having an interim between Mr. Huston and his successor is hardly worth while. Perhaps Claudius will solve the problem. Perhaps the report of his retirement next like others, is unfounded.

Bureau of The Washington, June 26-The lifting of the embargo upon the sale of military equipment to Soviet Russia is under consideration by the State Department, it was learned today. The reason for this change in attitude is the probability that the Soviet Government will be able to obtain the bombing planes that it desired to purchase of the Glenn L. Martin pany, of Baltimore, from other countries.

If it is definitely established that military planes are available in Gremany, France, Holland or other countries specializing in aviation manufacture, then the embargo will be lifted, it was explained. No decision will be made, however, until there is definite reason to believe Russia will be able to buy in other markets. Would Keep Trade In U. S. Although the Hoover Administration does not want to be in the position of selling material to a country which has an announced policy of world revolution, especially at a time when two important bordering Russia -India -are in revolt, countries, nevertheless it does not want to take valuable business away from American firms if Russia can get military supplies elsewhere.

Secretary Stimson said there had been no change in the situation, but made it known that in addition to military planes the sale of submarines also had been barred. Application for purchase of submarines, to be manufactured by an American concern, was made by Russia last winter, but was vetoed by the State Department. LatinAmerican countries, however, have purchased a number of submarines from the Electric Boat Corporation of New London. NAVY Gave Approval Application was made by the Glenn L. Martin Company of the State Department recently for permission to sell twin-engine, bombing planes to Russia.

The application had been approved by the Navy Department, which has placed large orders with the Martin firm for a new type of flying boat. The navy said it had no objection to having Soviet planes manufactured in the same plant with its planes, but suggested that the State Department be consulted. The State Department wrote the Martin company that it did not look with favor upon the proposed contract. No reason was given for the veto, except that Secretary Stimson announced there would have been no objection had the planes been for non-military use. MARSHAL'S SON IS MISSING V.
