LINBERGH RESTS ATHALFYAY PONT Plans Are Made for Survey of New Venezuelan Air Mail Route. By the Ascociated Press. MARACAY, Venezuela, September 27. @Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, explorer of aerial highways, rested today at his half-way point in his trail-blazing 7.000-mile air mail tour of the West Indies, Latin America and Mexico. He was not idle during his stopover of the flight over the northern coast of South America from Paramaribo, Dutch Guiana, to Cristobal, Canal Zone, first leg of his homeward-bound jour- ney. He made his plans for a survey tomorrow of a new Venezuelan air mail route, sponsored by Pan-American Air- ‘ways, as is his present 7,000-mile tour. Co-operating with Gol. Lindbergh in the preparations for the air mail route survey was Juan T. Trippe, president of Pan-American Airways and & passenger on the Caribbean circle tour. Mrs. Lindbergh and Mrs. Trippe, also pas- sengers on the lengthy flight, devoted the day to resting and sightseeing in this Venezuelan town. | Col. Lindbergh flew here yesterday | over the 415-mile coast line between Port of Spain, Trinidad. En route the colonel complacently climbed over the| bow of the big amphiblan to make photographs from the anchor compart- | ment of the territory over which the plane passed. The colonel's schedule tomarrow calls for a 7 o'clock departure on the 177- mile hop to Curacao, Dutch West | Indies.
