Motor cars laden with heavy tackle rs in blue and canvas dy to indicate the spot the landing. o e arrival of the ZR-3 from Germany marks the fourth successful attempt of humans to span the At- lantic Ocean in non-stop flight. Aeronautic experts of Army and Navy re; d it as the most significant if not the most spectacular flight. They declare that the world is wit- nessing evidence that the dirigible is destined to be the intercontinental passenger ship of the near future. The RBritish team of Alcock and Brown, both Royal Flying Corps men, took the air at St. Johns, N. F., in Vimy biphane on June 14, hours and twelve minutes later, having traversed 1,932 miles of sleet and fog, they plunged Wwith their aircraft into a bog near Clifden, Ireland. Hardly had nations ceased to gasp over the audacity of Alcock and Brown when the British dirigible R-34 rose from East Fortune, Scot- land, one day in July. She turned her nose toward America and with her went 30 men—one of them a stowaway. After 108 hours the R-34 reached Mineola, Long lsland. A few days later she headed home- ward, arriving in England after an uneventful passage. Stalked By Tragedy. Subsequent. attempts to equal or surpass the cruise of the R-34 ended in tragedy. The R-36, sold by Great Britain to the United States, was consumed by flame and expioson, followed by a disastrous toll of life, on a trial flight under British-Amer- jcan command over Hull, Kngland. A like fate attended the maiden flight of the Roma, acquired by the United States from ltaly, set up over here and turned loose upon the air at Aberdeen, Md. Exploston de- stroyed the craft over Hampton Roads, Va., and a heavy loss of lives marked the second attempt of this country to break into big league aeronautics. Danger Is Lessened. In the third major dirigible dis- aster since the R-34's flight, France and Frenchmen were the victims. Thelr proud Dixmude set out one day last year to penetrate into Africa and perished at sea. It is believed lightning ignited her hydrogen. The use of non-explosive helium as a substitute for the treacherous hy- drogen promises to make dirigible transit of the future safer than air- plane travel is today. Officers on this field who have seen the Shenan- doah perform under helium witnessed her survival of a terrific storm, and now watching her leisurely progress cn the western rim of the United States, declare that all the terror has been removed from lighter-than-air aeronautics. They point to the recent experience of the blimp TC-2 at Langley Field. A bomb exploded aboard as she was high in the air. Had her glistening skin held hydrogen a bundle of charred wreckage and a few mangled bodies undoubtedly would have been the result. | SEEN IN NEW YORK. Parly Morning Crowds Watch Huge Ship. By the Associated Press. "NEW YORK. October 15.—Out of the northeastern sky today came to New York a vision such as struck terror into the hearts of combatants in war time—a German dirigible ot monstrous size, her silvery sides sleaming in the uncertain light of the early morning. ch There was the same drone of the motors, slung in queer little tor- pedo-shoe affairs beneath the after- part of the hull, and the same easy motion, like nothing else except the gliding progress of a fish through still water. All that was lacking was the bcoming crash of the falling ‘bombe and the cracking of the anti- aircraft defense guns.

Communication again | was established with the dirigible at | the Boston Navy Yard, which reperted at 3 o'clock this morning that she was 120 miles off shore. Fifteen minutes later the folowinz message from Com- mander Steele was picked up at Chat- ham, Mass.: ve Speed Boston. A message of greeting directed to Mayor Curley of that city also was received. Paxxes Over Boston. The ZR-3 passed over Boston at 4:15, and followed the shore route to- ward New York till lower Connecti- cut was reached. There the shipi headed across Long Island Sound to Mitchell Field, headquarters of the Army Air Service. Thence the ZR-3 followed the air mall route over Long Island and Brooklyn to New York Harbor. More than 80 radio messages, most of them to friends and relatives of | the dirigible’s crew in Germany, were sent from the ship this morning. ‘While the Zeppelin was cruising over Boston her wireless flashed a message to a person by the name of Ludwig, living in Gluckstadt, on the River Elbe. It was signed “Sons,” and read, “America reached. Boston below us. Greetings."” Many other personal messages, some addressed to Cologne, others to Stuttgart, followed during the next few hours. The messages plainly showed that every person aboard the ZR-3 was delighted that the passage across the Atlantic had been made safely. CHEERED IN BOSTON. ZR-3 Cod lights on port beam. knots an hour. Headed for /7 Night Watchers View Craft From Building Tops. BOSTON, October 15.—Eastern Massa- chusetts had given up its night watch for the coming of the dirigible ZR-3 early this morning, when suddenly, it heard the dull roar of motors to the eastward. Long before the great ship | was sighted, the growing hum had pene- trated into sleeping homes and caused early morning workers to pause and look aloft. ‘Then at 4:15 she suddenly came into view over Boston. . Sweeping along gracefully against a sky lighted by the moon, persons caught first her red and white lights. Her great cigar-shaped bulk then was discernible, outlined in silver against the pale blue tints of the sky. From different parts of the city came the excited cry of ““There she is!” But, because of the speed she was mak- ing, she was lost to the southward al- most before the shouts had died away. In the center of the city, men ran for the squares and open spaces and mount- ed to roofs to keep her in sight as long as possible while they cheered and howled a welcome. Passes Small Towns. Following her course southwest, she passed over the small towns which lie between Boston and Providence. Farmers, rising in the gray of the dawn, glimpsed, her with growing distinctness as ‘the day brightened. She was sighted over Providence at 4:48; Newport, R. L, reported her at 5 o'clock, and Westerly at 5:40, When the crew of 31 men caught the flash of Highland Light, near the tip of Cape Cod, at 3:15, the Amer- ican members burst into a cheer and pointed out to their German com- panions their first sight of the Amer- ican continent. They had happened upon almost the identical spot where the Pilgrims found their first refuge. From this time on the dirigible kept in constant radio communication with Chatham station, WCC, of the Radio Corporation of America, giving fre- quent reports of her progress. She also transmitted for relay many mes- sages for relatives of her crew and the engineers who had bulilt her in Friedrichshafen, ZR-3 INTERESTS SPAIN. Attraction Due to Nation’s Own Air Service Venture, By Radlo to The Star and Chicago Daily News MADRID, October 15.—Spain has followed the voyage of the ZR-3 with the greatest interest, because for some years she has been promoting an airship service to South America. The moving spirit behind the scheme is the well known Spanish | winds engineer and officer, Commandante Herrera, who journeyed to Argentina, making an optimistic and technical report in 1921. To further the movement, a com- pany combining Spanish and German interests has been formed and land- ing sites acquired at Seville, Spain, and near Buenos Aires, Argentina. One fixed shed will be necessary at the Spanish base, as well as a moor- ing mast, but an expensive revolving shed as well as a fixed shed will be necessary in Argentina, owing to the strong prevailing cross winds. this was no histile craft; *1 The government has promised the A THE EVENING STA AERIAL CONQUEST Flght of the ZR-3 and routes of ea: company, whose capital is said to be 50,000,000 pesctas, a part guarantee.

Two of them will measure 150,000 cubic meters in capacity, and will have a horse power of 8,600, but the third airship will be much smaller nd will be used as a school for pilots and for communication between Spain and the Canary Islands. Commandante Herrera is convinced that air navigation is safer along the Argentinian route from Andulasia than anywhere else in the world, owing to the regularity of the trade He believes that 90 hours be sufficient for the flight.

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News LONDON, October 15.—The splendid performance of the ZR-3 is viewed in British official circles as the best pos- sible advertisement for dirigible air- craft and is lending a great impetus to Great Britain's plan to establish an interempire air route with craft of a similar type. At the moment, public opinion in the mother country is apathetic regard- ing how great an asset air routes are in view of the enormous expenditure necessary upon fragile carriers. To some extent, alrcraft engineers are still feeling the effect of the destruc- tion of the dirigible constructed for America in England. But with the unquestionable success of the Shen- andoah and the ZR-3 now impressed upon the public mind, rapid progress seem inevitable. (Copyright, 1024, by Chicago Daily News Co.) ZR-3 DROPS CAPITAL FROM HER ITINERARY Change in Course at Sea Precludes Monster Blimp’s Visit to ‘Washington. The change in course at sea of the ZR-3, which brought her into Lake- hurst from the north, instead of the south, and thereby precluded a visit to the National Capital, caused much disappointment throughout the city, if the hundreds of telephone inquiries received at The Star since early morning can be taken as a criterion. To each inquiry as to when the “big airship” would fly over the Dis- trict the reply was given that she was heading for Lakehurst, and in every instance regret was expressed. But interest in the now famous craft aid not drop with its failure to visit ‘Wwashington, for inquiries continued to pour in as to when it would fly over the city in the future. An indefinite answer had to be given to that class of question. PLANS INVESTIGATION OF WELFARE ACTIVITIES Indorsement Committee Adopts Plan for Inquiry Relating to All Institutions in Washington.

FOREND OF STORM Dirigible’s Commander Fears No Harm to Ship, But Wants People to See. By the Associated Press. SAN DIEGO, Calif., October 15.— Gales In the Pacific Northwest reach- Ing a velocity as great as 90 miles an hour today held the Navy dirigi- ble Shenandoah manacled to her moor- Ing mast here until tomorrow morning at the earliest. In making his announcement of postponement, Lieut. Comdr. Zachary Lanedowne, commander of the ship, said that the Shenandoah had noth- Ing to fear in any storm encountered In the air, but that she had one im- portant mision to fulfill, to let the citizens of the Pacific Coast see her. In the air the Shenandoah would become part of the air current with which she traveled. A storm might affect her speed in relation to the ground, but would not affect the ship Itself, as she would move with that particular air territory in which she happened to be, backward or for- ward, but always with ease and safety. A head wind might delay her, a gale hold her stationary or a terrific gust force her astern, but the only result would be that she would be late in reaching her destination. Air charts last night showed a chaln of three storms hovering ahbout the Pacifia Northwest. It was hoped that upon leaving San Diego tomor- row the dirigible would be able to slip Into her mooring at Camp Lewis, Wash., between the first and second or between the second and third storms. . WOMAN FOUND DEAD IN GAS-FILLED ROOM Husband and Son Unconscious. Murder and Attempted Sui- cide Suspected. By the Associated Press. LEBANON, Pa., October 15.—Work- men yesterday discovered the body of Mrs. Michael Yeilin, with her hus- band and 3-year-old son lying unconseious beside her, in a gas-filled room of their apartment here. Marks on the woman's neck indicated, the police said, that she had been choked to death. The child was revived and Yellin was reported last night to have a fair chance for recovery. Carpets and rags had been stuffed into the cracks of the doors and windows, leading the police to belleve that Yellin had killed his wife and then attempted to take his own life and that of his son.
