Following dedicatory exercises, there will be an address on the_life of Lincoln and one gave delight to & score of persons when he flew a commercial plane for three hours today. Cuban officials, a party of young Cuban girls and the wives of several prominent Americans were his delighted passengers. In urging the chamber luncheon guests to spend more time on the study of aviation as a commercial ald, Col. Lindbergh sald: “Air lines and aviation will play an important part in the de- velopment of the United States, but an even greater part in the countries to the south, where more difficult trans- portation problems are encountered.” Opening of regular air lines over parts of the route he has covered since leaving Washington for Mexico City would play an important part, he said, in the development of Western com- merce. He cited the glorious history of own plane, which after more than 40,000 miles in 465 hours in the air has yet had no need of a major overhauling, as proof of the reduction in the cost of maintenance of planes and engines in the past few years. Becretary of State Ortiz represented President Machado at the luncheon | B. Judah also spoke. From the luncheon, the aviator went to the United States embassy, where ! he met veterans of the World and Spanish Wars. Some of the latter had | battled desperately through the tropic growths over which Lindbergh had soared triumphantly on his flight | hither from Port au Prince. As the final function on Col. Lind-| bergh's official program and ending the fourth day of his Havana visit, a gold medal offered by the Geographical Soclety of Cuba was bestowed on him by President Gerardo Machado at a/! dinner at the National Academy of | Science. | With the round of fetes and social | obligations at an end, the American aviator expects to devote tomorrow,! his last day in Cuba, to preparations for an early departure on Monday.
