STRATOSPHERE HOP ENDS SAFELY AFTE 1,100- MILE FLIGHT} Belgian Balloonists Thought Lost Land Saturday in Yugoslavia Maribo, Yugoslavia, Aug. 20.—()— A balloon that raced through the cloudless stratosphere,in the arms at times of a 70-mile wind, spanning 1,- 100 miles between dawn and dusk, has come to a happy landing. Lost in the unexplored skies after its small wireless messaged a drama- tic “8. O. 8.” and then became silent, the balloon of the Belgian scientists, Max Cosyns and Neree Vanderlist, dropped out of the sky Saturday night into a corn field near Zinovije, safe and undamaged. In its journey at express train speed from Hour-Havenne, Belgium, to its Yugoslavian landing place, the balloon failed to set a new height mark, doing no better than 16,000 meters (approxi. mately 10 miles); but the flight was productive, according to Professor Cosyns, of “scientific observations of the highest value.” Cosyns and Vanderlist spent most of Sunday dismantling the balloon and arranging for the shipment back to Belgium of the records obtained during the flight. As the balloon slowly descended Saturday night peasants in the vic- inity of Zinovlje were stricken with terror. Some of them, believing the balloon to be of an infernal origin, fled. The scientists were at the point of exhaustion. Cosyns was dazed and bewildered as he stepped from the gon- dola, Vanderlist was little better off. Carrington, Both fell flat to the ground from sheer weakness, and both were run- ning a fever and suffering from acute nervous exhaustion. Professor Cosyns expressed surprise when he learned he had landed in! 5, Yugoslavia. He had thought they were over Czechoslovakia. Even after the landing it was some time before word of their safety could be sent out. Failure of the stratosphere scient- ists to communicate through their wireless with the world for many hours, caused the virtual abandon. Senish clear ment of hope for their safety.

Some see in these preliminary of- ficial figures a waning in enthusiasm p| for Hitler, pointing out that Sundi s “No” votes were more than twice the number as were cast in last Novem- ber's plebiscite. Attention is also call. ed to the sharp decline in the volume t. | of Nazi perty votes as compared with the November voting. In the November plebiscite there were 43,453,000 “ja” votes, and in the November reichstag election the Nazi vote was 39,655,224. ‘With but few exceptions, the 35 ma. Jor voting districts produced in Sun- day's election fewer “ja” votes than were cast in November. Some ob- servers see this as a failure of the German voters to respond to the ap- Peals of Nazi orators during the past few days that a larger affirmative vote be cast so that the world might know the nation is solidly behind “Mein Fuehrer—President-Chancellor Hitler. “Yes” votes placed 89.9 per cent of the total, as against 95 per cent in the, Plebiscite of nine months ago. ‘The public cast a total of 43 43,520,710 votes, according to preliminary final figures, or approximately 95 per cent of the whole 45,202,667 registered.
