After a long series of negotiations’ between the legal represe@:atives of pihiae 9 and pilot, it was thought the fina:teontract would be signed but Mr. Levine failed to appear at the meeting place. Drouhin was there saying he was ready and eager to hop off at.the earlient possible moment. The whole affair is proving some- what of a mystery te aviation circles, for Mr. Levine is quoted having said yesterday that he still wanted to yeturn home in the Columbia and that the ship would be piloted by oe havi a ie money not. beving le. posited, the start cannot be made in any circumstances before Tuesday, is stated.
