Bernt Balchen and myself, thought it would be an easy job. That was yesterday morning Last night, as I tried ¢o put it down on paper, I think I'd rather make a dozen trips to Greenly. Al T can say is that it was some re- ception. I've seen Paris and London t the height of war enthusiasm. 1've tnessed other parades and receptions in New York. Ive stood on the side- lines in Chicago when Chicago went all the way up > t I've never been lu y yeste day to s good wil out by of men in such unstinted m Not that they didn't deserve it-—those three fiyers of the Bremen.

Do you know what hap- {pened yesterday morning? 1 got off a | train from Quebec. went up to the Ritz | Hotel and walked in-on them ot | Roehl, Maj maurice and Baron Huenefeld were just eating breakfast.

We col 't see a foot ahead of the plane—or a or below it—on account of swirling snow and fog. Pitz asked me where we were I @'t know, and said so “Where's your map?” he asked.

I know that it impressed all three of the Bremen's crew. It struck a graver note than anything that had ,gone before. It meant something to them even as it meant something ‘o | me—and, if 1 may say, it meant some- | thing to all of s to realize that, no | matter what has gone before, the world | today is more united in bonds of peace {and harmony and good will than ever | | betore in all history. | And, boy. when I heard that woman ng “The Siar Spangled Banner," at send a thrill along my keel ike me glad to b alive?
