1S RADIDTOAID SOVIET AVIATORS Navy Air Net to Send Weather, Position Reports and Bearings to Plane. BY ROBERT MACK, Special Correspondent of The Star. | American naval radio will steer the | ourse of the Soviet plane, Land of So- | viets, on her flight across the Pacific | to_the United States. | Elaborate arrangements already have been made with the Navy by the Am- torg Trading Corporation, the quasi- official Soviet agency within the United | States. The flight, in which a dozen stops will be made, is scheduled to be- gin from Moscow early in August and end at New York. A definite itinerary has not yet been fixed, but the craft proposes to visit Seattle, San_Francisco, Omaha, Chicago and New York in a six-week sojourn within the country. Army Radio to Co-operate. The Naval Communications Service has arranged to assist the flight from | the start. It will furnish radio com- pass bearings, weather information, position reports, possible distress calls and such dispaiches of an official na- ture as might be necessary. Jn the flight within the United Statss, the Army radio net also will co-operate in the communications with the Land of Soviets. While soaring across the Pacific, the American fleets will be on the lookout for the plane. Admiral Charles F. Hughes, chief of naval operations, to. day sent to the commanders of the United States fleet, the battle fleet and the Aslatic fleet, the definite instruc- | tions governing naval contact with the plane. Similar instructions stmultane- | ously’ were dispatched to the com- | mandants of eight naval districts over | which the Land of Soviets will fly, Dates in the instructions are tenta- tive because of lack of definite informa- tion as to when the flight will begin. | “The best information, however, is that | the Land of Soviets will leave Mos- cow on August 1 for Petropavlovsk, Si- beria, and will take off from the laf place August 20 for Attu in the Aleu tlan Islands, off Alaska. Beginning | August 20 the naval radio station at St. Paul, Alaska, 1s instructed to handle all communications until the plane reaches Dutch Harbor, Alaska. ! The St. Paul station will broadcast | weather information every four hours, on specified day and night frequencies. This will include general weather fore- cast. local weather and any other com- munications. After it concludes its broadeast, the station is instructed to listen either for the piane or for its home station in Russia. From the time of the plane’s arrival at Dutch Harbor until it lands at San Francisco com- munications will be handled by the nearest of the eight naval radio sta- tions on the Pacific seaboard between Kodiak, Alaska, and San Francisco.

Speclal Dispatch to The Star. LONDON, July 26-—Addressing the Latin American Soclety of Great Brit- ain here last night, Lord d'Abernon declared that the economic mission to South America which he heads is con- | vinced of the enormous possibilities of commercial intercourse betwken Great Britain and South America. “If one surveys the whole fleld of possible commercial development. open to British manufacturers and traders, he said, “I can see few countries richer in promise than Argentina and Brazil. “The products of the South Ameri- can. Republics are essentially comple- mentary to the industrial countries of the Northern, Hemisphere, such as | Great Britain.” Being complementary, | there is a certain absence of rivalry ‘and each party is able to supply what the other requires, Lord d'Abernon mentioned that the mission to South America was appoint- ed by the last government lncr Teap- ‘poln:ed by the present Labor govern- | ment. | Henderson's Letter, A letter from Forelgn Secretary Hen- derson was read, saying: 'he members of the mission go as ambassadors of trade to find out how we can best supply each other those goods and services of which both stand in need. We need the product of Latin America and Latin America has shown she needs the products of our industry. | For example, Argentina is, I believe, our third largest customer outside the British Empire. You all recollect the speech made by the Prince of Wales in February wherein he asked this question: ‘Is the salesmanship of this country up to the workmanship of the men?’ “We know that British products are | the best in the world. We want to | make sure in Latin America that British | businessmen are adopting the right | methods, ‘delivering the goods.’ | ‘Wil Visit Argentina. | _“The mission wiil visit Argentina, | Brazil and Uruguay. The area to be | visited already is so vast and the im- | portance of the interests to be studied so great that I feel the mission could not adequately deal with the whole of | Latin America on the present occasion. | But I am fully alive to the importance of extending our inquiries at a later | date to other South American countries.” The British Latin America Commi: !sion was appointed last May, through | the board of trade, and includes Lord | d’Abernon best known as the first Brit- ish post-war Ambassador to Germany and who also enjoys a wide reputation as a financier, being financial adviser to the Egyptian government before the war and later chairman of the Domin- ion Royal Trade Commission; Sir Wil- liam Clare Lees, managing director of large textile interests and former presi- dent of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce; G.
