SEARCH FOR LOST PLANE IS FRUITLESS Standard Oil Liner Lost Near Great Salt Lake Still Missing The casualty roll of current aviation mishaps in the west today bore the names of 14 dead, one injured critically and four missing. Heading the list were the 12 fatalities in the crash of a United Air liner near Cheyenne, Chey-enne, Wyo., in which all on board perished. Lieut. Col. J. E. Davis, U, S. Marine corps, was killed when two-place naval bombing plane he was piloting crashed at Lords-tjurg, Lords-tjurg, N. M. His flying companion Sergeant Hugh Owens was fatally injured. . Abandon Hope A Standard Oil air Imer was missing with its crew of three men in the desert west of Salt Lake .City. With 36 hours of fruitless effort behind them searchers virtually had abandoned hope for t,he lives of the crew. Frank Kurtz, 21, holder of junior transcontinental flying records, rec-ords, was missing on flight from Riverside, Calif., to Mexico City. He left Guadalajara, Mex., late yesterday on the final leg of the flight which usually takes less Ihan three hours. The Standard Oil air liner apparently ap-parently crashed early Sunday in the salt wastes west of Salt Lake City. It was manned by R. S. Allen, Oakland, Calif., pilot; G. A. Lenz, co-pilot; and George C. Anderson, mechanic, both the latter lat-ter from Alameda, Calif. Aviators Avia-tors considered it a virtual im-possiblity im-possiblity for the men to have survived sur-vived if the plane went down in the Great Salt Lake. Army officials said the Lords-burg Lords-burg crah probably was caused by Colonel Davis disjudging his distance and power on the takeoff He was unable to lift the ship and crashed into an abandoned railroad dike. The ship bounded into the air an burst into flames Sergeant Owens jumped before the plane landed. Colonel Davit was found dead in the wreckage. The machine was en route to its home base at San Diego. MERRY GO-ROUND A Daily Picture of What'? Going On in National' Affairs Bv DREW PEARSON and ROBERT S. ALLEN WASHINGTON Two behind-the-scenes war developments develop-ments on this side of the Atlantic At-lantic are considered significant. signifi-cant. One is that the president is still running the state department, depart-ment, i ven though on the high .seas A constant flood of radiograms goes back and forth between the state department and the Houston. The other is that the president definitely believes in playing ball with the British. The call which Ambassador Straus made at the French Foreign office last week to suggest, diplomatically, that the United States would like to see close Franco-British cooperation, was done on the explicit instruction instruc-tion of the president. According to those with whom he conferred before departure, Roosevelt felt that France could tip the scales one way or the other -with the British, fpr early peace; against the British, for prolonged war. This w;is behind his instruction to Straus.

Attack Admitted Rome admitted in a communique communi-que that an Eritrean border town had been attacked but said the attack at-tack was repulsed. The communique com-munique added that Ethiopian casualties in the campaign already had ben heavy and that hundreds had been captured. The plan of campaign on both sides began to be more evident. Theltalians obviously will concentrate concen-trate their main efforts in the north, driving slowly toward Addis Ad-dis Ababa at a rate which will permit the steady maintenance of communications and service of supply to the rear, with a mini mum risk of allowing any main body to advance so fast as to be i cut off- ! Therefore, no smasning, spec- tacular drives may be expected for the present. On the part of the Ethiopians, it is likely to be a war of attrition, avoiding mass attacks on the Italians, in which they would be at a disadvantage. Swift, stinging flank attacks, sud den forays and ambushes are more likely. May Lose Advantage As the Italians penerate further fur-ther into the wild hills and gorges on the northern plateau, their present early advantage is likely to diminish somewhat. Operations in the arid, tropical Ogaden plain in the south probably prob-ably will not be so extensive. The lowlands present more military difficulties, and a formidable force of Ethiopians waits in -the region (Continued on Page Eight) B. Y. U.
