Ice-Clogged
Carburetors Said
Cause of Wreck
British Air Ministry Makes Report
of Loss of Flying Ship at
Sea January 21st.
WASHINGTON, March 25 (UP)
The British air ministry today LI am
ed ice-clogged carburetors for the loss
at sea Jan. 21 of Imperial Airways
New York-Bermuda flying boat Cav
alier.
The ministry's conclusions, which
absolved the crew of all blame, were
made in a report and investigation
of the accident which was climaxed
by a dramatic rescue of 10 of 13
persons aboard the plane. Six of the
eight passengers and four of the crew
of five were rescued by the American
Tanker Esso Baytown after 10 hours
afloat in the Atlantic ocean.
The report was made available tc
the press here by Capt. G. C. Pirie;
air attache of the British embassy.
It was prepared by Win? Commander
Vernon Brown, chief accident inspect
or of the British air ministry.
Brown's major conclusions included :
1. The forced descent of the Cav
alier 283 miles southeast of Long Is
land was due to complete loss-of power
in two of four engines and partial
loss of power in the other two as the
result -of carburetor trouble ascrib
able to icing.
2. The sea conditions were too sev
ere to make a good landing possible.
3 The officers of the plane were
blameless and behaved with great
coolness throughout.
4. All British regulations, under
which the Cavalier was operated were
complied with.
Brown found that the methods of
heating the carburetors to prevent ice
ing apparently was not "fool-proof."
He suggested changes for more ade
quate protection against carburetor
icing and strongly recommended thai
a replacement flying boat should noi
be sent to Bermuda until the changes
have been achieved.
The report chided' the press for it
"unfair criticism" of the Cavalier'i
Skipper, Capt. R. M. Alderson, whe
was alleged to have continued flying
on his route for 49 minutes after
knowing that he was in trouble.,;
Alderson had transmitted to port
Washington, N. Y., radio station the
following message:
"Running into bad weather, may
have to earth."
That was interpreted by many ir
the United States to mean "may have
to land." Actually, Alderson 'was no
tifying, in the British manner, that
he was "grounding" his radio anten
na because of static conditions, the
report said.
The investigation board that gath
ered the evidence on which Brown
based his report made the recommend
ations :
1. Flying boats of the Cavalier type
should be modified so as to give the
crew more adequate control of oil
temperatures.
2. For emergency conditions, an ad
ditional supply of heat under control
of the crew must be made possible
in order to raise temperature of the
incoming air before reaching the car
buretor jets.
3. Passengers should be strapped
in their seats at take-off and landing.
The board called attention to the fact
that on American airlines, passengerr
are required to do this.
Brown recommended that some type
of raft or lifeboat, emergency rations
and flare signals should be carried
by flying boats. He also urged that
consideration be given to earning s
separate navigator.

weight title fight in New York.

June 28 in Yankee Stadium, but this
may not be satisfactory because of
complications with the Max Baer-Lou
Nova scrap now scheduled for May
25 in Madison Square Garden's Long
Island bowl.
The Baer-Nova contract calls for
the fight to be held in one of the New
York ball parks the polo grounds or
Yankee Stadium and Nova's manag
er, Ray Carlen, insists on that con
dition. If he refuses to Jacobs
might have to move the fight into one
of the parks in early Jure and post
pone the Louis-Galento bout into
early July to prevent a collision in the
ballyhoo for the respective bouts.

Roger W. Cunningham, eccentric
member of a prominent Oklahoma
City family, confessed early today
that he strangled his beautiful so
cially prominent wife to death last
March C.
body which he had buried in a fresh
ly dug sewage ditch.
The body was found face up by
four workmen after they had dug
through several feet of soft earth in
a sewage ditch which had been fill
ed in March 7, the day after the
woman disappeared from her subur
ban home.
Cunningham, according to County
Prosecutor Lewis Morris, said he had
strangled her "I don't know why"
and had carried her body to the
vacant lot through which the sewer
ran and "kicked it into the ditch."
"Must have been crazy," he told
Morris after more than two hours of
questioning early today. "It was a
hell of a thing to do."
Morris revealed that Cunningham
twice had been held for examination
at a hospital for the insane at Nor
man, Oklahoma.
Cunningham's confession and dis
covery of the body ended a wide
search of a week's duration. Morris,
convinced that his continued plea of
innocence was not true and that he
soon must break, had held him since
Monday, while directing a search for
his wife's body, which extended into
neighboring states.

Sarpy County
Farmers Protest
Utility Comp'y
Threaten to Chop Down Poles of Ne
braska Power Co. if Neccessary;
Support Power District.
LINCOLN, March 23 (UP) A
score of determined Sarpy county
farmers told the state railway com
mission yesterday that, "if neces
sary," they would chop down the
poles" of the Nebraska Power com
pany. The farmers protested the com
mission's authorization last month
of construction by the company of
15 miles of transmission lines in
Sarpy iounty.
William Haldeman of Gretna,
spokesman for the group, said the
lines are not of service to farmers
who have signed for electricity from
the Eastern Nebraska public power
district. Construction of the com
pany's lines, he asserted, was "cram
ming something down our throats."
Commission members advised that
the protest, climaxing a prolonged
dispute between the company and
the power district, should be turned
over to power district attorneys since
the farmers wish to buy distrkt ser
vice, and formally filed by the dis
trict with the commission as an ob
jection. Chairman Will Maupin commented
that the commission has no Jurisdic
tion over "public convenience and
necessity" of power lines. "If we
did," he said, "you wouldn't be hav
ing this trouble."
