| HANKOW, Oct. 2. (/P) — Thrown
i into the turbulent waters of the
Yangtse River when his plane cap
sized, Colonel Charles A. Lind
bergh escaped a fate which has
overtaken scores of thousands of
Chinese in recent weeks.
The plane upset when one of the
wings struck the water as the col
onel was turning about preparatory
to taking off on a flood survey
flight.
He was tossed into the swift
stream while wearing his cumber
some flying togs. He was rescued
by a lifeboat crew from the British
aircraft carrier Hermes. The acci
dent halted Lindy’s flood survey
flights.

Shanghai in a few days anyway.
When they get the plane in shape
the next phase of their flight, ac
cording to indications, is that they
they may go to Europe by way of
Southern Asia.

WASHINGTON, Oct., 2, (#)—
1 The railroads of the country, thru
their legal staff, served notice on
j the Inter-State Commerce Com
mission, that wages of their em
ployees will be reduced unless
their request for a 15 percent in
crease in freight rates is granted
In view of the stength of the
railroad unions, the order is ex
| pected to precipitate a serious
j controversy. '
| The Commission has refused to
! consider the likelihood of wage
j reductions as a fact or in the
fight by the railroads, for higher
freight rates, so far.
One suggestion offered a final
hearing on petition was that the
roads might reduce passenger
rates ,now declared to be exces
sive, and thus enhance their reve
nues by inducing more people to
travel by rail.
