HURL CHARGES OF PROPAGANDA Counter Charges Os Propaganda Hurled Over Recovery Program Washington, April 26 - (U.R) - Republican members of the house charged today that relief workers were distributing propaganda favoring President Roosevelt's $4,512,000,000 recovery program. Their charges countered a claim by bouse majority loader Sam Rayburn, D., Tex,, that congress Is about to be deluged with a flood of propaganda against the new deal's lending-spending program. He said that "big corporations" are trying to sabotage it. Rep. John Taber. R., N. Y., sponsor of the motion that recommitted the administration's reorganization bill, said that his mall -was filled with propaganda “prepared in Harry Hopkins’ (WPA administrator) own office.” Rep. Earl C. Mlchener. It., Mich., said that petitions were being circulated by works progress administration employes asking congress to support the president's program. Taber's and Michener's charges were made shortly after Itayburn read a letter that had been sent to Mr. Roosevelt by an unidentified individual asserting that “a large corporation in Detroit” was directing a campaign designed to defeat any bills on the recovery program. Taber said that he had received many letters urging his support of the program. They are identical, down to their advice that the recipient “send copies of this to four others,” he Baid. "They are using relief funds to send this stuff out,” he charged, adding that many of the letters came from his own district and appeared to be inspired by the WPA. The house appropriations subcommittee, which is drafting a bill to provide the money for the huge lending-spending program, summoned Secretary of Interior Harold L. lekes to testify today on the need for (he $1,000,000,000 public works fund that Mr. Roosevelt has requested. Rep. Alfred F. lleiter, D., N. Y„ has introduced a bill to make the PWA a permanent agency under the interior department and to extend its functions. It was understood to have the endorsement of Ickes. This bill would reconstitute the PWA with power. 1. To construct and repair public facilities for lease. 2. To make recoverable advances for temporary operation of projects to protect the government's investment. 3. To sell its own securities on the open market. 4. To exchange the securities it has acquired from states and municipalities for other securities. Chairman Edward T. Taylor, D , Colo., of the house appropriations committee, still hopes to have an omnibus appropriation bill on ihe recovery program ready to report by May 1, but charged that “dilatory" tactics by Republicans in questioning witnesses may delay It.

SIXTEEN SAVED AS PLANE SINKS Sixteen Are Rescued After Plane Is Forced Down In Caribbean Kingston, Jamaica, Apr. 26. MJ.R) Sixteen persons rescued from a sinking Pan American Airways plane nine miles south of the island were safe today at Bowden, where they were taken by the steamer Cavina. The 12 passengers and four members of the crew were aboard an Amphibian Shuttle plane which plies between Santiago, Cuba, and Kingston, and were within sight i of the Jamaican capital when mot- j or trouble developed. Pilot J. H. Hart brought the plane down safely in the choppy Caribbean Sea, but it began taking water. The Cavina was nearby and quickly pulled alongside. Boats were lowered and the stranded air party was taken aboard just before sundown. The last radio report from Hart indicated that the passengers remained calm. His message merely said that the transfer was being made. The Cavina’s radio operator reported the situation ashore and the | tug Killerig was rushed out to i salvage the plane. Mail, baggage J and other cargo had been taken j aboard the Cavina. Before the Killerig arrived, tlic ■ plane had sunk. It was a two-j motored flying boat. .
