third version. i From the company's resume* of her story it appeared that Pilot Otto Ferguson, flying blind in a thick fog, was unaware of his danger until a split second before the giwt, twin-motored Douglas , monoplune crashed into the mountain top shortly after 10 a. nt. yesterday. A little while previously Miss Granger hud gone to the ( pilot’s cabin and aeked Ferguson 1 i how soon he would lund In Pitta-' burgh. Ferguson replied, "in a. few minutes.” Miss Oianger told her passengers to adjust their ' strajis (air passengers are required to strap themselves to their seats when a plane is about to land), and went to the tail of the plane and sat down in her own seat. A minute or so later the plane crashed. She wa s thrown clear and recovered consciousness "looking at the sky." Knitting known fragments together. this made it appear thut Pilot Ferguson actually believed he was coming into the Pittsburgh ail-port, some 40 miles north of the geene of the crash. At approximately the same time that he told Miss Granger he wan going to ' land "in a few minutes." he said ■ into his radiotelephone:— , “Flying blind at 3,000 feet, i lotting down to land at Pitts- ' burgh. 1 This message, picked up at TWA ground stations at Newark and Pittsburgh, was the bust word 1 from the plane. More than three hours later, Miss Granger's frantic I voice, coming over rural telephone lines into Pittsburgh TWA headquarters, announced the tragedy, i A slight girl, just over five feet tall, and weighing 101 pounds, she had demonstrated blind courage. ■ o HEARST FIGHTS | (CONTINUED FttOM PAGE ON Ft , proceeded with its surveillance of , i the private messages and papers; ;of publishers as well aa other | citizens in stealthy and secretive | ways." The publisher’s attorney con'tended the fundamental issue was whether a senatorial committee could "permit arts which the constitution forbids and reserve to itself the sole power to upon ithe lawfulness of its acts.” I "If the contention of the committee be upheld by this court,” Hanson said, "then the constitution has been set aside.” i Hanson denounced the committee for turning over to chairman John J. McSwain of the house 'military affairs committee, a copy iof a Hearst telegram which con- ; tained suggestions for editorial attacks upon the representative. He claimed the committee obtained the copy ixiproperly and it had no right to publish It through Mc- ’ Swain. "Seldom, if ever, in the history !of congress has any committee been guilty of a more flagrantly olf'-nsive and illegal, arbitritry. and capricious act," he said. ‘lit had no right to the copj- of that message, which it had ole tained illegally, ajid it has no right to any other copies of messages of this plaintiff, and if this plaintiff is to be protected against further illegal, arbitrary and capricious acts, a writ of injunction must be issued.” The committee wa.s represented by Crampton Harris of Birmingham, Ala., a former law partner of Tonight & Thursday Doors open 6:30 —Come Early!

Voting followed a similar trend in the 10 congressional districts which will send two delegates each Io the national convention. In the Republican district delegate contest, Giles 11. Putnam.

In .Milwaukee, three Democrats who opposed Roosevelt, dropped far behind in the race against Roosevelt-supporting Democrats. They were John M. Callahan, Elvin S. Clemens and Alfred D. Brennan. Rep. Raymond J. Cannon, who combined his Roosevelt endorsement with support ot the Townsend plan, dropped behind his straight-Democratic opponent. Returns indicated that Wisconsin's LaFollette progressives, on cordial terms with the national administration and carrying sufficient strength to swing tiie vote, were voting at least 2 to 1 for Mr. Roosevelt against Borah.

The margin in Sheboygan was nearly 6 to 1. Eeven Milwaukee voters, who have had a socialist mayor for 20 years, appeared to be turning against the municipal ownership proposition. However, the margin was so small that the contest may not be decided until final returns are tabulated.
