LINDBERGH PLANE | TOWED T0 ISLAND Aviator Calls First Night Afloat Worst He Has Ever Experienced. o~ (Continued From First Page) the tow line parted several times. On one occasion the plane narrowly | eacaped disaster on the Tocks. At Col. Lifidbergh’s request, the De- partment of Communications an- nounced that Japanese mechanics were to start from Tokio tonight-to aid in repadrs to the big monoplane at Muroton Bay. However, the fiyer's personal mes- sage appeared to indicate the motor trouble was not of a serious nature. Why he would ask the aid of Japanese me- chanics was not clear here. Heavy Fogs Enshroud Kuriles, Previous dispatches from the Shimu- shiru Maru to the Department of Com- munications indicated the trouble was in the plane's carburetor, which failed to vaporize gasoline, probably on ac- count of excessive moisture. That motor trouble was not the only reason for the Lindberghs' acceptance of the Shimushiru Maru's tow, however, ‘was generally acknowledged here. Heavy fogs continued to enshroud the central Kuriles and the seas were roughening. Bad weather conditions caused the transfer of the plane from the south to the north end of Ketpt Island Thars- day. This transfer was effected with Col. Lindbergh remaining in the plane while his wife boarded the Shimushiru Maru. g Although she was temporarily sep- arated from her famous husband dur- ing the transfer, Mrs. Lindbergh ac- cepted the situation calmly. She was reported in dispatches as having amused hmself at Intervals by glancing through & Japanese picture magazine. Col. and Mrs. Lindbergh had dinner aboard the Shimushiru Maru Thurs- day night, eating with chopsticks a meal consisting mostly of fish and rice. Mrs. Lindbergh apparently enjoyed the mnl asking for a second helping of Llndberghl two days of anxiety at Ketol was said to have been more for the safety of his plane than for Mrs. Lindbergh and himself. Was_re- lieved with the arrival at Muroton Bay, which is a perfect harbor. Towing Is Without Mishap. ‘Messages indicated the colonel was hopeful of repairing the motor nlone and possibly of started Nemuro Saturday or Sunday. As m emergency measure, however, he asked the Communications Department to send mechanics to Nemuro to await further orders in the event he is unable to_make the repairs without help. The towing to Muroton Bay was completed without mishap, the sea be- Ing calm. ‘As far as was known the lane was nct damaged. A flight officer of the aviation bu- reau ahd three mechanics left Tokio topight for Memuro. Muroton Bay is an advantageous place for making repairs. The 3 miles in diameter, is land locked. A sandy beach stretches back toward mountains, where silver fox abound, the entire islet being a Forestry Depart- ment preserve for Toxes. h's hosts will be three Jap- azese fox tenders.

Tanaka messaged “There is very little hope of repairing the Lind- berghs’ motor in a short time.” The fiight officer did not state the origin of his information, but presum- ably it was given him by the govern- ment steamer Shimushiru Maru, which | has been standing by the plane since | 12 hours after it was forced down late Wednesday in the “Black Hole” of the Kurile archipelago. ‘The steamer Shimushiru Maru Thurs- | day towed the Lindbergh plane to the north side of Ketol Island when a| change of wind made upsafe the plane’s | position on the south side of the -mu island.

MEXICO CITY, August 21.—The im- migration department yesterday made public figures intended to justify re- strictions recently placed in force to prevent entry into Mexico of foreign workmen in the guise of tourists. The figures were published in reply to a reported statement by the Ameri- can consul at Nogales, Sonora, in which the consul was reported to have de- plored the “restrictive aspect” of the laws. Tourists entering the country on six- month permits averaged 3,000 monthly from September, 1930, to June, 1931, the fle’pln.ment said, while those leaving averaged less thm 300 monthly until May of this year, when steps were taken to weve'nt persons whose tourist permits had expired from remaining in the country.
