PAGE EIGHT DROUHIN AND LEVINE ARE CRITICIZED French Press Stirs Up Quite! a Controversy Over Flight to America Paris, July 6—(AP) Druchin’s contract with Charles A. Levine, under which he is_to riot | the transatlantic plane Columbia back to America, runs for one year | with compensation of $150,000, the | newspaper L’Auto says today. In French money this amounts to} 3,750,009 francs, rather a stupend, ous sum to the French public 1/Auto’s story hus tended to stin late the contro y raging the proposed papers gene’ Drouhin and Le L’Auto, which characterizes the pilot’s decision “regrettable,” | prints a communication from Henry | Farman, veteran airman, who con. demns both men. He says he think: Levine might have chosen a pilot from the large number of men only | too willing to go, without taking| the man who has been training for| his own transatlantic flight. | Some Supporters There are Drouhin’s S portunity which presented itself to| get ahead of the German pilot Koennecke, who is reported to be straining every nerve to make a westward transatlantic flight. The Columbia was resting again on French soil today after a flight | across the Channel to | Croydon, gland, and back.| Charles A. Levine hopes to start his | flight to New York within a fort- night. { Clarence D. Chamberlin, pilot in the journey from New York to Ger- many, flew the Columbia to Eng- land with Druhin at his side. Levine was a passenger. At the Croyden airdrome Chamberlin and Levine parted company, and Drou- hin piloted the plane back to Le Bourget. Soon after Chamberlin landed at Croyden he was in the embrace of his gray haired mother, who had not seen him in seven years. Still Good Friends Chamberlin told inquirers that while he had disagreed with Levine over linking his name with a chal- lenge to Commander Byrd for a competitive Atlantic fight, “we still are the best of friends,” he added, “I have finished my job, which was to prove that a transatlantic flight could be accomplished in an ordinary machine. “I wish Levine and Drouhin al! the luck in the world on the return flight. Drouhin is able and ex- perienced as a pilot, and if the Columbia serves him as well as it did me, he ought to be completely; successful.” Alleged Slayers of Deputy Sheriff Hunted in Timber Lineville, Iowa, July 9—(#)--A pos- se of more than 100 volunte d peace officers from six cow tinued their search of a 100-ac of timber near here today in an ef- fort to capture Sam Petty and George Pollard, alleged slayers of Clint Me- | Connell, deputy sheriff, near ec Vhursday night Found last night near the ace was the fugitives’ automobile pierced | in the back by bullets that the fatally wounded deputy shot after the two men when they resisted his attempt to arrest them for bottleg- ging.
