SUVA, Fiji Islands, Nov. 28 (U.P). ,=Frm a delirious woman, crazed by hunger and thirst, authorities today _sought the story of the deaths of

her three companions aboard the _ tiny sailing boat on which they left "California seeking romance and * riches. : . The woman was Mrs. Fern ~ Thompson, 32, of Salt Lake. City. Her companions were her husband, ~ Robert, 35, a pearl diver of San Pe‘dro, Calg Delton Conly, 26, antl his wife, Eve, 20, of San Francisco. Aboard the 28-foot sloop ~ Wing ¢ On when it was found on a reef on “the northwest coast of Vanua Levu . Island were two bodies, a man and “Mrs. Conly. : It was not established if the man was Conly or Thompson. Police authorities believed the “fourth fhember of the party had been buried at sea or swept overboard in 4’ typhoon. Ee Sloop Found Sunday

~The yacht Loloma of the Seventh ‘Day Adventist Church found the “sloop on the remote reef Sunday. “The woman survivor was taken to ‘the hospital at Labasa sugar plantation, The party sailed from San Pedro, Aug. 12 in the sloop that Conly had converted from a lifeboat. Conly, - a former boatswain on the Grace line, was married in Portland, Ore., two years ago, and immediately planned a honeymoon cruise around e world on his tiny sloop.

The, Conlys met Thompson, the]

_ pearl diver, who spoke glowingly of “the riches to be found in the South Seas. They pooled their resources, outfitted the Wing On with an auxiliary engine generating power for light and operation of a radio - receiving set. They had prpvisions for four months when they departed for the Marquesas Islands, 1500 miles ~gast of Fiji. 3 4 Childfen Left in U. S. >: The Conlys left their 10-month-.-bld daughter in the care of his sister; Mrs. ‘Lois King, in San Francisco. The Thompsons left their two children, Jacqueline, 2, and Tommy, 11, with Mrs. Thompson’s parents, Mr. and Mrs, Alfred Mann in Los Angeles. = ; Apparently they followed a true eourse into the south seas, for there Is no record that they touched at any port. But this time of year in the south seas is the. period of ‘typhoons, and mariners believed the Wing On was carried far off its course and tossed on the reef. A 28-foot boat, they said, would have less chance than a match in high seas. The provisions must have been washed overboard, for the condition ‘of the two bodies and of the lone survivor indicated starvation had been their lot.

Doubts Roosevelt Sincerity In Proposal to Cut Budget To the Bone.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28 (U. PJ). —Members of the Eouse economy bloc - were “pleased but skeptical” today over Presiden F.oosevelt’s proposal to cut the regular Federal budget to the bone. Rep. Clifton A; Wocdrum (D. Val),

{leader of the economy forces and a

prominent member of the Appropriations Committee, said he had not

“the slightest. doubt” that members of the committee “would be more than eager to go a.ong with the President.” One Deraocratic member said: “the President usually makes an economy statement at this time each year’ and. echoed doubt expressed by some Republican Senators and Representatives that Mr. Roosevelt would carry out his aims. The President said the Administration would shelve for the war’s duration many types df public works projects, including acquisition of public lands, additions to national forests, highway coiistruction and rivers and harbors iniprovement not deemed necessary to national defense.
