On Atlantic Jump WASHINGTON, Juno 19 strange telegram In French and a mother's undying hope or the life of her son set In motion today moves for a thorough search of New Brunswick Canadian govern ment forests in an effort cate Tom Smith, Loa Angeles flier, who set out for Europe from Old Orchard, in a tiny airplane, and disappeared. Senator Rush Holt (D) West Virginia, instigated the move after Mrs. Harvey Smith, of Clarks burg, W. mother of the flier, notified him she had received telegram apparently giving news of her son's passage over New Brunswick.

Holt scheduled a conference with state department official's He said he would ask them to negotiate with the Canadian government with a view to having a thorough search made of the terrain over which Smith was believed to have traveled. Experienced Jumper "There may be a chance that Smith is still alive, and lost in the forest," Holt said. "He is memeber of the Catterpillar Club, and is an experienced parachute jumper.

"I intend to ask the state de partmcnt to negotiate with th Canadian government for a com prchensive search as quickly as possible Mrs.

Smith notified Holt after she received the telegram ii French. The senator had it trans lated, and then got in touch with Mrs. Smith to advise her that he would do all he could to effect a search. The message to Mrs. Smith, received from Gloucester county, New Brunswick, cam from senders whose names Holt did not recall, and said: "We had been looking for your son's ship after reading it was to pass over here.

We saw what we believed to bo it and shortly after heard a terrific explosion but we barred by government from entering forest to look for it." Smith did not ask the Civil Aeronautics Authority for permission to make the flight in his frail plane, because, he said he knew it would not be granted. When the authority was advised officials expressed the hope Smith would "make it," but pessimistically indicated its belief chances were against the an man. Believed In Sea After Smith took off and was not hpard from, it was believed that he had fallen into the sea until his mother received the telegram she communicated to Holt. The West Virginia senator said he had checked up and determined that the forest mentioned by the telegram senders was on the route the flier would have taken from Old Orchard, heading out to sea "Tt may be that Smith may he found alive, Holt said. certainly going to see that a thorough search is made for anyway."
