By the Associated Press. FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany, May | 24—The Graf Zeppelin returned at| dawn today to Friedrichshafen from | Cuers, France, where it made an emer- gency landing just a week ago after turning back near Gibraltar from an attempt 1o cross the Atlantic. Aboard the dirigible when it landed here were 14 of the 18 passengers who made the outward-bound trip, and in addition seven French naval officers, in- | vited as the special guests of Dr. Hugo Eckener, the ship’s master, in apprecia- | tion for French aid in landing his ma- | chine in its emergency last week. | Rays of rising sun outlined the giant | air liner as it approached the Zeppelin | works from over Lake Constance, its | silvery sides glinting and shining as it finally hovered over the field which it | left so proudly eight days ago. A land- | ing crew, in readiness for a half hour, | seized the hawsers it let down and brought it to earth at 5:06 am. (11:06 p.m. Thursday, Eastern standard time). In Hangar by 5:30. | By 5:30 am. the airship was safely | in_its hangar. the landing crew deftly following directions given them through a_megaphone by Capt. von Schiller. The Zeppelin's constructor, Dr. Ludwig Duerr, who was almost grief stricken | at the failure of its four motors on the | abortive American flight, superintended | the ground operations himself. Capt. Sir Gearge Hubert Wilkins, | | Arctic explorer, Was among the first to | alight, followed by the French guests | nd Mrs, Mary Pierce of New York, only | voman on the flight. The Frenchmen | vere warmly greeted on behalf of the Wurtenberg and federal governments by an officer of the German Reichswehr. The flight from Cuers to Friedrich- shafen, over a course of some 600 miles, occupied 8 hours and 41 minutes, de- | parture from Cuers taking place at 8:25 | pm. Thursday. A large French land | once occupled by the {ll-fated French dirigible Dixmude, and started it on lts‘ | way with cheers for the Germans, their | former enemies. Wreath Dropped in Sea. ‘The Zeppelin cut south to the Med- iterranean and dropped a wreath in | commemoration of those who lost their | lives aboard the Dixmude, turning northward then and passing over Mnr- | seille shortly afterward. As it rode the breezes up the Rhane Valley weather conditions were perfect, in marked contrast to the strong mis- | tral, or cold northeast wind, which the dirigible bucked with its one function- | ing motor last Friday in its previous at- | tempt to reach its home hangar. ‘The dirigible was sighted over Avig- non, Montelimar and Valence, and then was not regorud again until it reached Switzerland. It was seen at Geneva at 1:08 a. lights glimmering briefly | from its cabin, before it was lost to view in the direction of Lausanne,| which it passed at 1:35 am. It reach- | ed Bern at 2:09 a. circling over the Federal Palace. The Swiss frontier at Kreuzlingen was passed at 4:20 a.m., the ship making | exceptional time. | Passengers were enthusiastic about the scenerey during their moonlit Jflur-i ney skirting the Swiss Alps. Alexander | R. von Kryha, Ukrainian inventor, who was a passenger, said: “We had splen- | did weather. There was a magnificent | spectacle when we flew over Zurich, at an altitude of 1,400 meters, in the light of the full moon. Nearly all the pas- | sengers remained at the windows all of. last night. “During the trip the motors function- ed perfectly, and a speed sometimes as | high as BO ‘miles nn hour was attained.” CITIZENS APPROVE NAMING OF PATRICK| ‘The Forest Hills Citizens’ Association | last night adopted a resolution approv- ing appointment of its treasurer, Maj. Gen. Mason M. Patrick, as a member of the Public Utilities Commission. ‘The association instructed its com- mittee on mail facilities and transpor- | tation to urge the Capital Traction Co. to install a switch on Connecticut ave- | nue at Fessenden street, with a view of | running its Bureau of Standards cars to | that point. The parks and public buildings committee was instructed to urge that one of the proposed public branch libraries be located at some point in the association territory. Owing to the hazards encountered by school ehildren crossing Connecticut avenue at Ellicott street, the transporta- | the automobile speed limit be reduced i | from 30 to 22 miles per hour. ‘The street committee was asked m urge that favorable action be taken on a petition requesting cement curbs znd | gutters en Thirtieth and Brandywine streets. Like action also was taken by | the association as to Twenty-ninth | street.

One way of prospecting in New Mexico is by examining the character of the anthills encountered in the 7. Any min- eral content of the land is likely to be revealed by the piles of soil brought to the surface by the ants, which often reach rather considerable depths in with explorations under the surface. An examination of these pyramids will reveal the character of the material to be found immediately below and in this | manner mineral finds of great value have been made.

By the Associated Press. BERLIN, May 24.—Anti-gas measures in modern warfare are characterized as a delusion by the investigating “Inter- | national Committee of Red Cross Ex- | perts,” which recently convened in | Brussels. In the German Woman Doctor's Monthly Dr. Gertrude Woker described how the committee’s investigations | clearly proved that for the civilian population in a war of the future no protection existed. The futility of seek- ing such protective measures, she said, was apparent from the fact that all na- tions . are. busy producing new forms of gas which they are carefully keeping | secret from each other. As to the progress made in this most devastating form of warfare, the Cross was able to glean much startling enlightment. It was learned, for in- stance, that Brisanz shells with time fuses are being made which, when drop- ped from airplahes, bury themselves in the earth, but do not explode until either 4, 6, 8, 12 or even 36 hours later. Against such deadly missiles even the best organized rescue squads would prove unavailing. Moreover, every military attack of the future, the Red Cross experts believe, will comprise at least three different kinds of arms, each of which renders the protective measure for one incom- | patible for the other. A gas mask is not | only not protective against corrosives, but individuals affected by such a cor- rosive poison must also be excluded from dugouts to prevent others from being affected by them. After discussing the possibilities for evolving a reliable system for sending out an alarm to the civilian population of an impending attack, the com- mittee resolved “that none of the rec- ommended measures for- safeguarding | humanity offers an adequate protection | for the civilian population against poi- | son zas utmck (2001 T6th St NW.

Piano Manufacturers for Almost a Hundred Years HIGHER EARNING ' URGED BY SCHWAB dustry Is Inadequate to Provide for Future. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, May 24 —Charles M. Schwab, chairman of the Bethlehem | Steel Corporation, in an address today to | Declares Return of Steel In- | 1 | before the American Iron & Steel In- ‘:nfuw of which he is president, d!- | clared that, while there is a greater de- | mand for steel now than there ever was before, earnings of the steel in- dustry are “far fror adequate to pro- vide for the industry’s future service to the country.” He sald 70 per cent of the industry | last year got a return of 6.35 pcr cent on its investment. ‘Warns Against Overexpansion. | Mr. Schwab issue¢ a warning against overexpansion, particularly at the e: pense of a diminishing supply of raw | material, and said the two most im- portant problems now facing the indus- try are “intelligent individual control | over our productive capacity and earn- | | ings adequate to provide for the future r_eql:lrement.s of our ever-expanding in- dustry.” “Because of the large demand for 'HE Quality of our Dairy Products is ever uniform. Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter there is o change. Proper supervision at the source of production, com- bined with the most scientific dairy equipment assures you at all times. ‘um I~ said, “it is generally believed that our industry is in a highly pros- perous condition, but we should not allow the optimism caused by this de- /mand to blind us to the serious eco- |nomic truth that the earnings on the large investment in the steel business |are far from adequate. “Last year the return on_investment cof companies representing 70 per cent ,of the industry was 6.35 per cent. Not only in ftself, but when compared with | what other industries are receiving, this return is indeed very low.” 1929 Production Increases. Production so far this year is 11.7 per cent higher, he said, than it was for the same period last year.
