Levine takes off on an attempted return flight to America tomorrow depends very largely on the weather reports and on news regard- ing the British monoplane St. Raphael, he said today. He and his pilot, Capt. Walter Hinchcliffe, are proceeding to Cran- 3 wwell this afternoon to superintend the 4 e 3 s . Wh installation of radio equipment in their 3 ‘ plane, the Columbia, and to inspect other details upon which mechanicians under the direction of e. Levine told newspapermen this morning: “It will, of course, depend on weather reports when we go; also o ‘whether news is received of the safe 1 arrival of the St.-Raphael on the other ! side. If it has gotten over safely, my trip to the east holds good.” Levine has indicated that, if denied the opportunity of being the first to make a non-stop aerial crossing of the Atlantic from east to west, he would attempt a long-distance record flight from England to the east. sttt KNIGHT IS APPOINTED U.
