Pilot Given
Blame for Crash
in Mi
ssouri
Plane Flown Too Low Prior to Smash
np in Which Five Died, Cor
oner's Jury Declares.
Macon, Mo. A verdict that the
pilot flew too low "without turning
on the landing lights" was returned
by a coroner's Jury which investi
gated the crash of the TWA air liner,
sky chief, early Monday near Atlanta,
Mo. Five persons were killed.
"Accidental" was inserted into the
verdict two hours after It was re
turned otherwise the panel declined
heatedly to make revisions suggested
by Manuel H. Davis, attorney for
TWA.
"We are not going to change that
verdict any more," declared Juror
Charles Fower, a filer himself.
Davla protested as ,"ambIguous"
and "an injustice" to Pilot Harvey
Bolton the Jury's comment: "We find
that the pilot was flying Baid plane
too close to the ground without turn
ing on the landing lights."
Davl3 contended the evidence
showed landing lights were in oper
ation several minutes before the
plane, fuel low and seeking a haven
from fog and rain crashed in a muddy
farm pasture near Atlanta, Mo.
Complying with a legal formal
ity, the Jury will meet Thursday to
insert In Its record the names of the
persons who found the dead and the
injured who died. Senator Cutting,
Pilot Bolton, Co-pilot K. H. Greeson
and two women passengers.
"We recommend that the officials
of the department of commerce make

State Police
Bill Ruled Out
for Time Being
i
House Solons Postpone Measure In
definitely; Need for New
Taxes Said Keason.
Expansion of the state sheriff's of
fice into a semi-military state police
syBtem was decisively rejected Wed
nesday by the Nebraska house of rep
resentatives at Lincoln.
A bill by Senator John S. Callan
(D.), Odell, originally Intended to
create a force of 100 men and later
whittled to a maximum of 50, was
indefinitely postponed.
Little opposition developed to the
bill, but it was beaten because it re
quired at least $200,000 additional
taxes. The measure proposed a 50
cents wheel tax on autos and trucks.
Several attempts to eliminate this
feature were rejected. The senate
passed the bill.
Advance Measure.
The house advanced to third read
ing a bill passed by the senate to
continue for two years the author
ization to counties to levy an addi
tional half-mill tax for relief. The
law was enacted in 1933 as an emer
gency measure.
After another false start, the sen
ate deferred until Thursday further
action on the O'Briencld age pension
bill. A plan to boost the present pen
sion tax of 50 cents a year on all
persons between 21 and 50 years of
age to $2 and to earmark the four
million dollar state assistance fund
for pensions is pending.
The senate advanced to third read
ing the Cone delinquent tax bill. De
vised by the late Representative
Trenmor Cone, Valley, principally to
encourage taxpayers to catch up on
their taxes, the bill proposes to can
cel interest and penalties on delin
quent taxes if they are paid under a
10 year Installment plan.
Consider House.
The conference committee trying
to reconcile the senate's 48-member
unicameral legislature plan and the
house's 50-member program sched
uled its first meeting for Thursday.
Before discarding the police bill,
the house rejected an effort by Rep
resentative Marion J. Cushing (R.),
Ord, to take 50 cents out of eacty
motor vehicle registration fee instead
of levying an additional tax.
Representative Edward J. Dugan
(D.), Omaha, attacked the safety
arguments of proponents of the bill
and cited figures on accidents in
states which have state police sys

stated.
