Horta, Azores Islands, June 30 | (UP)—After leaving Trepassey on ! May 23 for the first hour the wind | was favorable. It then changed to cast northeast, when we were oblig- ed to fly over a fog bank for 400 miles. The wind had a velocity | 30 to 50 miles an hour and was partly against us. After passing the fog bank the wind was southeast | and against us when we flew at low | altitude. | Owing to strong winds our speed was reduced to one-third so we found our gasoline supply was insuf. ficient to reach the Azores. Under normal conditions our supply was | sufficlent to take us to Ponta Del- | gada. | In latitude 41.11 north and longi- | tude 33.54 west, I dectded to land | on the ocean to wait a lighter and ' more favorable wind hoping to reach at_least Flores. Near the landing spot where there ! was a three masted Porty ese sail- ing ship en route to the Danks of Newfoundland for cod fishing. He came to our assistance after difficult maneuvering for about three | hours, passed a rope by means of a | small boat. The seaeat the time | was dangerous for us. The small | boat took us on board th suese fishing boat Infa a and towed us in direction of Flore: (Westernmost of the Azores group.) On the same night we met a steamer which communicated with us by Morse signals, but we were unable to reply. The following day the conditions of wind and sea were the same. | On the 25th the harometer fell & ®ood deal and we hove to. The storm and the high waves damaged the 1ail and controls of the machine. On the morning of the 26th the 1ow rtope broke and while picking up the Santa Maria the Italian steamer Superga, which was looking for us, appeared and offered his as- sistance which we accepted. The wind shifted to north west, but owing to sea conditions we were | unable to tow the machine with the | wind astern owing to danger of breaking the tow rope. Again, when trying to attach the tow rope to the Santa Marla, owing to the heavy seas it was Impossible to get close to the machine and Second Officer Martini of the Superga, jumped into Infanta Sagres, the waves were $o high at time that we could not see | the hydroplane. The Superga was steaming about three miles an hour, at times less. The rope broke again and it required six hours in a row | boat to make the line fast. A second time, on Sunday the 29th, we were 25 miles west of Horta but not able to make a straight course for the island owing to the wind being astern. We steam- ed slowly towards the end of the Fayal and, as the sea was a little calmer, we got in shelter of the is- land and reached Horta about six thirty a. m., on the 30th. On arrival we had the plane tow- ed to safe anchorage and during the cvening had it overhauled. On the following day we had the machine lifted on to the end of the break- water where it will remain until thoroughly overhauled. When all repairs are completed and the machine tried out, we intend to return to the spot where we land- ed and resume our flight from there. The engines of the machine work- cellently and were undamaged. | The machine, in spite of seven days | towing n heavy seas and high winds | showed how it was built and how casily it withstood the heavy weather by the capacity to tloat in such heavy seas.

C. Hunger- ford in police court this morning on the charge of overloading an auto- Attorney Schatz of Hartford entered a plea of guilty and told Judge Hungerford that Palmer is a mechanic in the employ of the Phoenix Express of Hartford and knew nothing of the statute in question. He accommodated his employer on May 27 by driving a truck load of sugar to Bridgeport |and while passing through Stanley street, was accosted by an officer the load, that the truck was carrying more than the law allows.

He told the newspaper Excelsior that he would propose that one of the city’s two rew arteries be nam- ed for the American aviator and the other be given the name “Nun- gesser-Coll,” in honor of the two French fliers who started on a trans Atlantic flight from Paris to New York early in May and of whom nothing has been heard since. In this way, M. Laurent declared, the Ameriean hero would be associated with “two great Frenchmen, who by showing him the route prepared for his success.” It the municipal council accepts the proposal, Lindbergh will have an honor not yet conferred on France's war premier, M. Clemenceau, Mar- shal Foch or Premier Poincare. FLOODED WITH MAIL Mrs. Lindbergh is Unable to Answer All Messages of Congratulations She Rccelves.
