WITHOUT Germany Expected _To put Zeppelin Works Out of Commission Now HORTA, Azores Islands, Oct. 13.—(By The Associat- ed Press)~—The giant dirig- ible ZR-3 passed Fayal at 2:35 o'clock this afternoon (local time) on her way to Lakehurst, N.

The weather was ne with a northwesterly breeze blowing. WASHINGTO Zeppelin, 7 was over the broad expanses of the At- lantic and the navy, on the alert, was standing by to render any help that might be needed by the great airship in its epoch making journey from Friedrichshafen, Germany, to Lakehurst. Nogiirect word from the ZR-3 had come’ to the navy bureau of aero- nautics because her radio range had not reached a point where navy ap- paratus could make contact, but through ships at hand and through its other sources of information, ef- forts were made to keep in touch, Captain George W.

(By the Assoclat- | ed Press).—The Zeppelin ZR-3 this morning was well out over the At- antic, having covered 1,000 miles of her journey from Friedrichshafen, Germany, to Lakehurst, New Jer- sey, according to the latest advices. The next definite word as to her progress is expected to be in tho form of wireless communication either with some vessel sighting her at sea or from the Azores {s- lands, over which she ts expected to pass in following the southern trans-Atlantic route. This route was chosen because of the adverse conditions reported over the shorter northern route, Leaving Friedrichshafen, were she was built on the war repara. tions ‘ount of the United States, the great aircraft yesterday first flew over Basel, Switzerland. Then she swung about and followed the Rhine until opposite Belfort, where she turned westward and then gradually to the southwest, follow- ing a direct Une from Bel- fort to the Bordeaux region. Few people caught a glimpse of the giant ship in her swift passage, high In the heavens, over France. The amateur wireless enthusiasts were all at their recetving sets, but Renerally speaking the first Zeppe- lin’ to fly over this country sinca 1917, passed like a ghost.
