Miraculously escaping1 death after crashing against a mountain peak in a fog and come pletely wrecking the former Seattle, one of the four1 United States army globe encircling air cruisers, Major Frank L. Martin and his mechanic, Staff Sergeant Alva A. Harvey, are at Port Moller, 100 miles west of Chignik, Alaska, on the Alas, ka peninsula, according to a wireless message received here from thai point via. St. Paul island. The two American aviators, who emerged unscathed from the splintered parts of the plane on the mountainside, were forced down one hour and a half after leavink Chignik fo island, Dutch Harbor, Unalaska shortly before noon, April 30, to rejoin their three companions. They rescued a few of their records ana food rations from the debris and started on a long tramp down the mountainside toward the north Pacific shoreline. After many hardships they finally reached a trapper's cabin situated on the southern tip of the Port Moller bay last Wednesday morning, whers they obtained food and a warm place to sleep. They were utterly exhausted after a seven-da- y tramp under severe weather conditions and they rested two days in the cabin. Satur day the fliers, feeling refreshed in mind and body, walked to the beach and were able to flash the first message of their safety to the world, after being reported missing ten days. To the tale of Major Martin's fate for which the world hasr been waiting eleven days, a strange feature is contributed by the fact that two men at Port Moller thought last Sunday evening that they saw a plane ten or fifteen miles from Port Moller. But the place where Major Martin hit the mountain apparently is at least thirty miles from Port Moller, which is twenty miles from the southern end of the bay. Major Martin was making his sec ond desperate effort to rejoin his command, which went on without him when he descended April 13 between Seward and Chignik with a leaking crank case. On departing from Chig. nik he turned north instead of taking the route laid down, which wen southwestward. The last authentic report of the sighting of Major Martin's plane was a half-hou- r after he hopped off at Chignik. A trapper on Lake Chigmiles north of the nik, twenty-fiv- e town saw the flagship flying 400 feet above the frozen waters. Major Martin left Chignik in such a storm that the other members of the expedition, then waiting for him at Dutch Harbor, had considered it certain that the commanding officer would not fly that day. Northwest gales and snow prevailed. flag-plan- Bonus Bill Back to Coolidge The soldier bonus Washington, Mil has been returned to the White House after study by the budget bureau, treasury department pud vetPresident Coolidge eran's bureau. probably will announce his action on the measure early next week.

O., Business prudence should comalone, if nothing else, mend to America tlie "friendliness and good will with Oriental peoples," Robert N. Lynch, vice president of the San Francisco chamber of commerce told the foreign commerce group In the annual convention of the chamber of commerce of the United States. If Is theme was "Foreign Trade From the Viewpoint Pacific Seaof the board." Protracted applause greeted the reference to Japanese exclusion. "The economic future of the Pacific coast is bound up with Oriental trade," Mr. "Nothing Lynch said. could be more stupid than to unnecessarily give afront to Japan or China. Responsible business men and organizations on the Pacific coast recognize this thoroughly and are doing all in their power to meet inevitable probon a friendly lems of immigration rather than a hostile basis. We believe these problems should not be handled by an act of congress, but by friendly negotiations." Unqualified opposition to the bill proposing establishment of a government export corporation for farm products was expressed in the convention, by Dr. W. M. Jardine, president of the Kansas Agricultural college. lie viewed the whole plan as based on unsound economic theory and its enactment as threatening to the stability of the entire business structure. "The plan would stimulate production when the crying need of agrl. culture Is less production," he said. "It plunges the government into the most gigantic business in world history, and proposes a scrip system for its operation which would mean flat money." Juiues K.
