No. 1, Issued his first official statement of the attempt to span the Pacific in a nonstop flight from San Francisco to the Hawaiian Islands. In an extemporary report, dedicated to "the American people," Commander Rodgers chronicled the experiences and trials gone through by himself and crew of four men since the plane took btt from the waters of tea Francises bay, August 81. By COMMANDER JOHN RODGERS tin command of navy MaplaiM PN4, No U w For the benefit of the interested public, I desire ot make at this time a definite statement of facts In regard to the voyage of the P-N9, No. 1« from San Francisco to Nawlllwlll. The PN-9. No. 1 and No. 8, left San Francisco approximately at the same time on August 81. The PN-9, No. 3, was not Blghted by No. 1 after, departure. Plane PN-9 No. 1, proceeded as per Instructions, sailing on a straight course to Kahulul. The navigation was done entirely by dead reckoning, no attention being paid to radio bearings. The engines worked perfectly. In the morning it became evident that the gasoline supply was running short and It would be doubtful If we could reach Kahulul. I therefore decided to land at the Aroostook, I started to write a message which would give her some clue ot our whereabouts but just then the gaspllne gave out Both engines were cut out simultaneously and we started to glide from about 800 feet Lieutenant Connell, who had the contacts, made a beautiful landing In the heavy swells, both engines being dead, having no power. Due to total expenditure of gasoline, we could not use radio and were therefore out of communication at twilight I determined our position to be fifty miles north of the Aroostook's station. We rigged a radio antennae on the plane and received without much difficulty everything that was in the air. We sailed before the wind, endeavoring to work the plane in toward the Hawaiian islands, hoping to make Oahu. We made fifty miles a day. • We knew we could get along with our food, of which we had small emergency rations. We were depending on a small water still for water. This supplied water, but the still required gasoline as fuel. We managed to get the still going on the sixth day by burning wood from the trailing edges of the lower wings. On the seventh day we made a canteen and a half of water in about five hours. On the eighth day a heavy rain squall passed over us and we caught about two gallons in the fabric which had been. cut from the lower wings. This enabled us to survive. All during the trip we realized that an extemporized radio sending set would solve our difficulties In a few hours by giving our position to the search ships. We tried rigging one up, bat were unable to make one which worked a sufficient distance. The receiver, as I have said, functioned perfectly all the time. We knew just what was going on about us. Crossing the steamer lane from Honolulu to the coast a steamer crossed our bow about five miles ahead, in the early morning. Due probably to the fact that the sun was low and directly in the e^es of observers, we were not seen. We passed Oahu at about 40 miles distance, the Island being clearly visible, the afternoon of the eighth, and headed and close hauled for Kauai. We had reached a point about 15 miles off Nawjllwlll and were trying to signal that port when we were sighted by the patrolling submarine, ten miles of Nawlllwlll, -were taken in tow and towed into the harbor, where the whole island greeted us. Tne most exciting part of the whole journey was getting the plane anchored safe In the harbor of Nawlli will. Finally we got It well secured In a safe place and went ashore. We were taken care of by the good people of the lslafcd, who Insisted on treating as as invalids, whereas, as a matter of fact we were In very good shape and perfectly capable of taking care of ourselves. We believe the PN-9 la a great plane In the air, capable of maintaining Itself on the surface of the water in ordinary weather almost indefinitely. The morale of the crew was high, As a matter of fact It appears from what we heard after our arrival that we were the least concerned people In the world as to our safety. I wish to say finally that as Ha* wallan flight comnmnder I was folly supported by all units of the navy. Spencer Wins Bike Titfo Newark, N.

Washington.--One of the first tasks undertaken by the President after his return to Washington was to tackle the problem of tax reduction and the national budget Treasury department figures prepared for Secretary Mellon have been put In approximately final fbrm, both on expected receipts and disbursements for the fiscal years 1926 and 1927 and on the working out of various suggested plans of tax reduction. These figures are under consideration by the President and will guide him In the final draft of the sections of his message to congress dealing with the national budget and tax reduction. The first cabinet meeting for several weeks was held. Secretary Mellon attended and he had an estimate on the sums involved. In addition, he was prepared to discuss the proposals for tax reduction put forward during the congressional recess. One of the most Important developments involved was the condition of the treasury. There is every indication that the balance for the present fiscal year will be larger than expected. As a result the administration's recommendations or suggestions to the ways and means and finance committees may contemplate a tax reduction of at least $400,000,000 and perhaps as much as $500,000,000. A cut of 60 per cent In surtax rates right down the line, with a maximum of 20 per cent will be recommended. It will be suggested that the nuisance taxes be largely abolished and that the unprofitable tax on smaller incomes be eliminated. " ; Forecast indicates Crop of 2,886,000,000 Ba.--Wheat, Oats Show Gain," Washington.--The indicated corn yield has been reduced by 65,000,000 bushels in the last month as a result of drought and continued heat -according to the government report, made here, which placed the probable crop at 2,885,000,000 bushels. The estimate was 2,950,000,000 the previous month and 2,487,000,000 In the same month of 1924. The crip is extremely spotted, with the reduction of 42,000,000 bushels in South Oakota and 9,000,000 bushels each In Minnesota and Illinois. In Illinois tho total of 878,982.000 was a surprise In view of recent pessimistic reports. The Icwa crop was virtually unchanged, while the Ohio estimate was raised 9,600,000 bushels. Indicating a record yield for that state. Nebraska's estimate was Increased 13,500,000 bushels and that of Kansas, 7,000,000. Gains of 21,000,000 bushels In spring wheat, 75,000,000 bushels in oats, and 8,000,000 bushels In barley were reported, with the gain for tbe five leading grains 87,000,000 bushels over August, raising the total to 6,821,000,- 000. This is an Increase of 478,000,000 bushels as compared with 1924. Based on the prices prevailing for September delivery of wheat oats, rye, and barley at Chicago and December delivery on corn, the five leading grains have a valuation of $4,330,- 000,000 as of September L The winter wheat crop is 416,000,000 bushels and the total of all wheat 700,000,000 bushels compared with 878,000,000 bushels harvested last year, which Is also t'ie five-year average. Late oats are yielding much better than was expected, and the estimated crop is now 1,462,000,000 bushels, an Increase of 75,000,000 bushels. This crop figure has been exceeded only four times in the country's history. The harvest last year was 1,542,000,000.
