W.
A.
Williams,
pilot
of
the
Alaska
Washington
Airways
Company's
hydroplane
that
burned
yesterday
in
Puget
Sound,
recounted
his
experience,
here.
He
was
flying
at
an
altitude
of
500
feet
owing
to
a
pall
of
smoke.
"I
saw
the
Fahrenheit
gauge
showing
a
higher
temperature
than
was
normal
so
I
put
down
at
Kingston,
about
20
miles
north
of
Seattle.
I
landed
on
the
water
about
a
quarter
of
a
mile
from
the
shore
to
be
at
a
safe
distance
from
the
bathers
at
the
girls'
camp.
If
there
had
lieen
any
fire
should
have
landed
at
the
shore.
I
stepped
out
op
the
pontoon
to
locate
the
trouble.
As
I
worked
a
flame
developed.
This
was
probably
due
to
some
part
of
the
motor
being
hot
and
some
gas
may
have
spilled
as
I
landed.
I
immediately
opened
the
door
and
told
the
passengers
to
step
out.
Two
small
gasboats
were
nearby
and
I
signalled
them.
They
took
us
off.
When
one
of
the
boats
was.
within

feet
Miss
Emmie

and

Johnston,
Prince
Rupert,
to
jump
after
her.
He
could
not
swim
and
she
took
him
to
the
boat.
There
was
never
any
danger
but
she
apparently
thought
she
could
lighten
the
plane
and
make
things
easier.
She
is
a
wonderful
swimmer.
We
had
life
preservers
and
rubber
boats
big
enough
to
hold
cvcrylMxly
but
none
of
them
were
needed.
Had
I
been
alone
I
could
probably
have
saved
the
machine
by
beating
out
the
flames.
There
was
no
crack-up.
I
never
had
a
better
landing
in

The
fisheries
experimental
station
has
two
men
on
the
river
investigating.
Many
of
the
fishermen
think
it
is
fine
silt
that
comes
from
the
slag
at
Granby
Smelter
but
the
experimental
station
is
not
sure
of
that.
Anyox
is
a
long
dfstancc
from
the
Naas
Kivcr
and
it
may
be
some
other
cause.
In
the
meantime
the
fishermen
are
much
worked
up
over
the
situation
as
it
means
much
to
lose
a
net
600
feet
long.
