ROAR ING TO AVIATOR Nee York, June 13.—(2)—Charles Lindbergh came back today to the city he left on his great adventure, they first non-stop flight ever made from New York to Paris. He stepped from the city tug Macom at the Bat- tery at 1:20 p. .—after being brought up the bay from quarantine where he had landed in an ampaib- ian plane after a flight from Wash- ington via Mitchel Field. As the Macom hove in sight the crowds at the Battery burst into such a roar of greeting as that fam- ous welcoming ground had probably never heard before. The sirens on countless craft in the harbor added to the din and the crowd surged for- ward toward the seawall as though fits every member wished to séize the hero’s hand and greet him personal- ly. 7 Police Keep Order Police were put to it to keep order as men and women shouted out their welcomes and everything available from hats to handkerchiefs and pen- nants were waved wildly. As the Macom approached the Bat- tery, fire koats began to shower wa- ter from their deck guns iin salute and excursion boats crowded with cheering admirers formed a convoy for the city boat. Lindbergh’s arrival at quarantine, where the Macom picked him up, end- éd the flyér’s fitst air journey since Aigtreturn to America, and a journey which might have proved disastrous but for his daring and skill. He de- cided to fly from Washington to Mitchel Field, where he changed to an amphibian, in a Curtis pursuit plane instead of his famous “Spiriv of St. Louis.” Just Enough Gas Shortly after taking to the air, his gasoline flow stopped and he had to turn on his auxiliary tank which contained just enough gas to carry him 300 miles. Undaunted by this contingency, Lindbergh continued and janded at Michel Field with the auxil- dary tank almost dry. As the Macom docked, Lipabersh, his curly hair blown by the breeze, mounted the pilot house and waved a greeting to the wildly cheering crowd. Battery Park echoed to the shouts of the crowd and the air drummed with the vibration of a Squadron of planes circling about the city. TONS OF PAPER THROWN FROM SKYSCRAPER WINDOWS New York, June 13.—()—Charles A. Lindbergh dropped down out of the skies onto the waters of lé6wer New York bay at quarantine today after a quick flight from Washing- ton and a change of planes at Mitchel Field. He arrived at quarantine to be picked up by the tug Macom at 12: m. in a few minutes after his landing in the bay Lindbergh was taken aboard the Macom and the city boat, gayly decked in flags, proceed- ed full speed ahead up the narrows for the Battery. The harbor was filled with craft of all descriptions fluttering with flags and welcome . banners. ~~ As soon as word was received that Lindbergh was on board the Macom and expected at the Battery within half an hour, the welcome parade was started uptown. ‘As the parade proceeded through the canyon of lower Broadway, paper was showered down upon it trom the windows of the financial district in New York’s traditional gesture of welcome and ‘approval. By the time the front of the pro- cession had reached City Hall, Broad- way from there down to the Battery was as white as though there had been a heavy snowfall. ‘As the procession progressed it was greeted by thunderous cheers from the crowds that were jammed along the sidewalks, perched on win- dow sills and leaning from thousands of windows. LINDBERGH’S MOTHER IS IN NEW YORK FOR CELEBRATION New York, June 13.—(@)—Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh, mother of y Colonel ‘Lindbergh, ived at the Pennsylvania station at 8:05 this morning from Washington. Majdr William F. Deegan, ‘tep- resenting the mayor's reception com- mittee, received her and she was driven immediately to an apartment in the mid-town section, reserved for the use of herself and son. The flyer’s mother was cheered by crowds’ hat gathered in the big termindl. , She smiléd at the wel- come. News of Mrs. Lindbergh's arrival spread quickly and a number of patrolmen, escorting the party from the station, were pushed and jostled as the throng of cheering commuters came swarming about her. % "As the party drove up Fifth avenue, the sidewalks of which were already lined by early arrivals to see the parade, she wi ecognized at once and was given rousing cheers, She bowed and smiled. “I don't know what to say,” she protested, smilingly, when greeted by reporters at the apartment, but. be- fore retiring to her room, farned ‘and exclaimed “It’s wonderful, had a wonderful time in W: Iagton™ PERFORMS SEVERAL STUN’ ¢ BEFORE LEAVING CAPITO!

He left it in the hangar of the navy air station reluctantly after mechanics had worked on it for more than a half hour. While the take-off was delayed, the little plane selected for Lind- bergh ‘is much faster than his own machine and he hoped to arrived in oe York on schedule time—11:30 a m. Before taking off, Lindbergh gave instructions that the Spirit of St. Louis be held at the naval air sta- tion until he could decide what he would do about moving it. Ken- heth Lane, airplane motor engine of the Wright Aeronautie corporation, s@id the flyer might return here and pilot the ship from this point to St. Louis, instead of from New York as originally planned. After Lindbergh had departed, it was found that one valve was stick- ‘ing and this was removed. It developed that there was a slight crack in the piston rod and a new one will be installed. HONORS WITH FAMOUS SON MRS. LINDBERGH SHARES New York, June 13.—()—Mrs, Evangeline Lindbergh, mother of Colonel Lindbergh, was given the welcome of an advance guard today when, in spite of her hope of arriv- ing with as little attention as pos- sible, crowds roared greetings to her all along the route from the Pennsyl- vania station to an apartment re- served for her in the mid-town sec- tion, Welcomed th€re by Mrs. James J. Walker, wife of Mayor Walker, the modest’ mother of a modest aviator was next subjected to a “mass inter- view” by dozens of reporters. Perfectly at ease, Mrs. Lindbergh said she had no plans for her son, that his plans were his ow and that for her part she was going right on teaching school in Detroit, “Can you pilot a plane?” she was asked after she said she had often flown with her son, “Yes,” she replied, “I can pilot a plane, but not very well.” When the reporters left, Mrs. Lind- bergh rested a few minutes and, then, accompanied by her party, city offi- ‘ials and an escort of motorcycle po- lice, drove to City Hall where Mrs. Walker presented her to the mayor in his private office. All along the thoroughfares, cheers greeted Mrs. Lindbergh who beamed her pleasure and acknowledged the greetings with a wave of her hand or a nod of her head. MAKES QUICK CHANGE TO AMPHIBIAN PLANE Mitchel Field, N. Y., June 13.—(#) —Charles A. Lindbergh returned to- day to the flying field from which he hopped off but little more than three weeks ago to fame across the Atlantic ocean, He landed « here shortly before noon, daylight time, hard by the adjoining Roosevelt Field, from which he took off for Paris. He left Washington at 9:54 P ndbergh was at Mitchel Field only two minutes, arriving at 11:58 a.m, daylight time, and leaving at noon. His escort of 21 planes circled transfer to:the amphibian, which was waiting for him with engine running and with Captain Eaker at the con- trols. As soon as Lindbergh jumped into the amphibian’s cockpit Captain Maker gave her the gas and they were away. The convoy closed in behind and they were soon out of sight on their way to New York harbor. Colonel Lindbergh landed at the opposite end of the field from where the amphibian was standing with its motor running. The flyer got into an army automobile and drove. down the entire length of the line of from four to five thousands persons, who cheered lustily as he stood in the tonneau, nodding and waving his hand in’ recognition of the welcome.

The bill specified so much for printing, so much for travel and so on. But it did not foresee the flood of bills, some of them containing 30 printed pages, which marked the last session. Apparently the solons of 1925 did not realzie that those of 1927 would travel farther, or at least have larger travel bills. The 1927 legislature used all the money allotted to it but it wasn’t enough. When the hills for print- ing were figured it wasn’t enough by $6,750.16 to meet that item alone. Then State Auditor John Steen fig- ured up the remaining bills which the state owed on account of the! legislature and they totaled $1,683,- 77, The emergency commission paid them both, Has Heavy Drains Other heavy drains on the emer- gency commission were: travel and expense for eighth grade and high school examinérs of the department | of public instruction $600; travel,| postage, printing supplies and con- tingent expenses of tax conimission- er’s office $900; travel expense for the state transportation officer $1,- 500; pay and other expenses of the state pardon board $300; the geo- logical survey fund for the state | engineer $750; capitol maintenance fund $1,500.

Numerous transfers from other those for travel and clerk- asked by the state engineer, the Mouse river flood and other jobs so reduced his travel fund that he found he would have to stay at home and twiddle his thumbs until July 1 unless money were found to finance the survey trips he wanted make before that time.
