Williams were the heroes of this achievement, having flown from Old Orchard Beach, Maine, to the vicinity of Santander, Spain. Though By they fell short of their destination Rome by 900 miles the flight across the ocean was considered a great feat. It was made in the Reliance monoplane Pathfinder in 31 Va hours and except! for about two hours the airmen were unable to see the water because of dense fogs. Ilend winds exhausted their supply of gasoline and they were compelled to land on the Spanish coast just a little beyond the place where the French transatlantic plane Yellow Bird was forced down recently. Spanish officials and citizens gave them a hearty welcome and hunted up a supply of gasoline with which, next day, they completed their flight to Rome. They landed at the Llttorlo field there and the officials and people Even greeted them uproariously. Premier Mussolini was at the field to meet them, but as they were late In arriving he had left just before they landed and soon afterward received them at his residence. They were made the guests of the Italian government and treated royally.

The premier Insists there must he r.o reservations, but the foreign relations committee voted for the insertion of a declaration that France never should be called on to pay more than she receives In reparations from The opposition also favors Germany. a reservation providing for a moratorium whenever the .capacity of France to pay Is not equal to the Installments due under the debt accord.

' Y UITURE between Nationalist China and Soviet Russia is seen as the certain result of a renewal of the old feud concerning control of the Manchurian unit of the railway system. The governor of the district of Harbin nrrested 174 Soviet officials and employees of the Chinese Eastern railway and promptly deported 37 of them across the Siberian border. Chinese directors replaced the Russians. Among those arrested were the Russian vice director of railways and the director of the trading commission. All Russian banking and trading operations in llurbin were closed.

The annual losses have risen from $13,000,-00In 1924 to this huge sum, which Includes $42,000,000, which the department must pay to railroads as the result of a decision of the court of claims. Mr. Hoover has ordered an exhaustive survey of the entire postal service to determine the causes of the big losses. One step which could be tnken by the I'resldent without legislation and in advance of completion of the survey would be a reduction In the contract price for transportation of air mall and a relative Increase In nir mail rates. In other quarters It was said he would be urged to consider the contention that modernization of the departments accounting methods would wipe out a large portion of the deficit. Under the present system, the Postal department Is required by law to handle hundreds of thousands of tons of congressional franked" and departmental "free" mail matter annuals ly. All of it must be accorded handling and the system does not permit the department to take credit for the free service In Its accounting. s Rules choke to death in the tangle of regulation.
