(P) -Fresh efforts were made today to give the United States the leading role in the work of a proposed permanent organization to aid refugees from Greater Germany.

He kept his hat on until the moment he started speaking, and then handed it to his son, Elliott. The rain rolled down the President's cheeks. Elliott wore a raincoat.

The storm brought recollections from members of the Presidential party that the Executive had been dubbed "the rain maker" during his campaigning for the Presidency in 1932. In introducing the President, Mayor Ross Rogers told the cheering crowd that the spot on which Mr. Roosevelt stood would be dedicated to the President, and that a beautiful shaft would be erected on it. Some citizens suggested that the shaft might bear an inscription of Mr. Roosevelt's words that today's shower was a good omen.

Among those with the President was Senator Tom Connally of Texas. Connally had no comment on the execut.ve's appointment of Allred. It was reported that neither Connally or Sheppard had recommended the appointment. Besides Connally, Gov. Clyde Tingley of New Mexico, Governor Allred, Earnest O.

Churchill launched into' his attack after the speaker, Capt. E. A. FitzRoy, ruled members could not discuss the alleged part the war secretary played in military court action against officer-member Duncan of San- Pararmy liament and Churchill's son-in-law. His verbal blast highlighted debate which was on the report of the House Privileges Committee holding that a military tribunal had violated Commons' historic privileges by summoning Sandys to tell where he obtained secret data on Britain's anti-aircraft defenses.

Churchill, assailed by Capt. Arthur Evans, a Conservative, for accusing Hore-Belisha of sheltering himself behind military officers, roared in reply: "I do not modify in the slightest degree what I have said." The report of the privileges committee was agreed to without a record vote. Laborite Herbert Morrison, starting the opposition attack, charged the military court's action was "a flagrant defiance of the authority of parliament." CANNON RENEWS CAMPAIGN PLEDGE (Continued from Page One) ested in harbor developments and expressed a deside to be made a member of the Rivers and Harbors Committee, saying the Fourth District is entitled to such representation. "Under my pledge to you I am in honor bound to do everything within my power to assist in having the Townsend enacted into law. However, fully realize I am not a finished product and will need all the help I can get from the people of my district.

I earnestly ask you to give it to me," he said. H. C. Curtis, president of the Cannon-For Congress Club Palm Beach County, sponsor of the dinner, presented William C. Sherrill as toastmaster.

Mayor S. D. Morris, in a brief address of welcome, pointed out that the incoming Congressman can do a better job if he has the full cooperation of his constituents. John Murrell, Miami attorney, told the gathering that Fourth District Democrats made no mistake in nominating Cannon for Congress. "He has the energy, the vision and the ability to ably represent this great district in Washington," Mr.

Murrell said. "I am happy to say that when Mr. Cannon first announced his candidacy he came out flat-footed for the Townsend plan and has never wavered from that stand." He described the candidate as a self-made man who is an example of the fact that any young man has a chance in this country to accomplish things by hard work. In Cannon, he said, the district will have a representative in Congress who will stand up and fight against foreign "isms." A prediction that the national recovery act will be passed early in the next session of Congress was made by Willis J. Sherrill.

He declared the Townsend plan to be an American plan because it is based on an economy of plenty and said the social security act is Unamerican because it is based on an economy of scarcity. After outlining the principal provisions of the Townsend Plan, Sherrill asserted that "Pat Cannon has the health, the vigor, vision and the judgment to make us the best Congressman we ever had in this district." Judge E. B. Donnell said he is pleased that the Fourth district will have a representative in Congress who has pledged himself to support the Townsend plan and the Roosevelt administration.

It was undecided, flight headquarters announced, whether Hughes would make a stop in Canada, probably at Edmonton, Alberta, after leaving Fairbanks, or continue non-stop to New York. Fresh have gasoline and other sup: plies been laid down at all possible stopping, points listed. Because fortifications along the Latvian, Lithuanian and Russian borders, it was learned, Hughes, enroute to Moscow, was forced to plan a detour of 150 miles longer than flying direct. The total mileage of Hughes, proposed route totals 14,710 miles as compared with 15,596 flown by Post. WASHINGTON, July The State Department has arranged for Howard Hughes to land at three places in the Soviet Union.

They are Moscow, Omsk, and Yakutsk. Omsk is 1500 miles east of Moscow and Yakutsk is 1800 miles beyond Omsk. The department obtained permission from a number of countries over which Hughes might fly.

World-Girdling Ship Heading For Moscow (Continued After from Ocean Page Flight gineer Richard Stoddart reported "Everybody Stoddart is said all the right." plane was go120 miles an hour at an altiindie of 16,000 feet but that how soon they would reach Moscow was still indefinite. Hughes then took over the microphone and corrected the figures. "We are traveling at 16,000 feet and our average speed per hour is 185. We are now using our oxygen supply," he said. "Pardon me a minute while I take some oxygen," Hughes caid.

"At this altitude without oxygen your brain functions slowly," He said they had been flying instruments ever since they left Paris, presumably because their altitude and atmospheric conditions hampered reference to ground points. "I am sorry for the delay," Hughes continued, referring to the slowness of his remarks, "but we are trying to conserve our oxygen supply as much as possible. "We are using the oxygen supply very sparingly as the supply is limited and we want to conserve it as much as He explained that Stoddart's figures on their speed were incorrect because "he was sitting with his back to the instruments and couldn't read the instruments quite accurately." "We have flown blind from the moment we left Le Bourget," Hughes continued. "We were unable to climb at first because of the heavy load we were carrying and since leaving Paris we have been guided entirely by our instruments." The broadcast was relayed to this country by short wave from Berlin, where Hughes' signals were picked up and amplified. PARIS, July 12-(Tuesday)- Howard Hughes headed his silver monoplane toward Moscow early today on the second leg of a world flight after a breath-stopping take-off which apparently inflicted serious damage to the plane's landing gear.

The danger-fraught departure came at 1:24 a. m. (7:24 EST, Monday), more than 'eight hours after the millionaire pilot and his four companions landed to set a new non-stop New York to Paris flight mark. His plane's left wheel apparently was gravely damaged in the take-off. It hit a rut at the end of the runway, but Hughes managed to get the heavily laden craft into the air altho with difficulty, barely missing obstacles at the end of Le Bourget Field.

As the plane disappeared in the darkness, the dangling wheel giving evidence of something amiss, apprehension arose the Americans experience difficulty in landing at the Soviet capital some seven hours hence. Hughes' immediately was notified of the trouble by radio. A damaged rudder control and fuselage had held the fliers over in Paris for repairs. Mechanics said the left wheel also had been checked thoroly. The second leg of the globegirdling flight started early today after completion of minor repairs to the huge silver monoplane in which Hughes Col.

Charles A. Lindbergh's York-to-Paris halved, trans-Atlantic time. The millionaire aviator was at the controls as he was when he brought the flying laboratory in from York only 16 hours and 35 minutes after his departure. Exactly 39 minutes after the heavily loaded, monoplane was wheeled the hangar she rose, barely topping houses at the southern end of the field, and disappeared into the sky bound for the Soviet capital, 1,541 miles east and slightly north of Paris. The general tenor of weather reports had improved since Hughes landed at Le Bourget at 4:55 p.

m. (10:55 a. EST), Monday. Hughes piloted straight for the space between the two and rose into the air just as his wheels hit the end of the runway, clearing the fence by a few feet. United States Ambassador William C.

Bullitt and his daughter, Anne, together with Embassy attaches, watched the takeoff after bidding farewell to each of the five fliers individually. Hughes and his companions in the first successful effort to follow the trail blazed by "the Lone Eagle" May 20-21, 1927, landed at Le Bourget airport at 4:55 p. (10:55 a. EST), 16 hours and 35 minutes after their takeoff from Floyd Bennett Airport. Lindbergh spanned the distance, estimated at 3,600 miles, in 331 hours.

The pilot hoped to continue on to Moscow within two hours after landing, but at the last minute it was found the bottom of the fuselage was cracked just above the tail skid and a radio antenna had become snarled.
