Navy appropriation bill passes after four hour debate
The House approved a 3.469 billion Navy appropriation despite Democratic protests over an 11 percent cut, which critics say would reduce Navy and Marine strength. The bill now goes to the Senate after about 100 members debated for four hours. Representative Plumley stated the appropriation covers all current needs without compromising naval supremacy.

Earhart flier mystery linked to missing notice
Mrs Earhart recounted an initial talk with a person who later vanished, returning to find a strange man unaware of the facts and unwilling to pursue the matter. The missing flier radioed a Pacific ocean distress call with fuel dwindling as Navy vessels searched.
