OFFICIALS HAPPY AT BYRD'S SAFETY Gongratulatory Messages Sent Oat by Dept, Heads Washington, July 1 (®—Long hours of tragic waiting, tinged with | the spectre of diaster, by offical | Washington gave way today to un- restrained joy and relief with the word that Commander Richard E. Byrd and his trans-Atlantic aviators were safe in France. The nation’s chief executive, President Coolidge at his summer White House in the Black Hills of South Dakota, exhibited his ex- treme anxlety over the fller's safety. He instructed his secretary, Everett Sanders, to reccive word of the! flight from the Washington bureau of the Associated Press and as soon 4s definite word of the safety of Byrd and his companions was re- ceived the Associated Press advised | Mr. Sanders at Rapid City over long | distance telephone. i The rellef over the aviators' fety was tingsd with disappoint- ment that their huge monoplane | America had been forced down. But high navy officials, including Secre- | tary Wilbur and Rear Admiral Mof- fett, chief of navy aeronautics, who had remained awake to receive the | reports from the Assoclated Press, | felt that the safety of the naval aviator and his companions over-| shadowed everything else. | Commander Byrd's dash over the | Atlantic through the fog and rain | was considered to demonstrate the effectiveness of the aeroplane and | trans-oceanic flights even though he failed to reach his objective. was a proud day for Uncle| sam's service today. The army was still exultant over the Hawaiian flight, while the navy rejoiced in her protege, Commander Byrd, who had | added to its and his own glorious aviation achievement of the North Pole conquest last summer by the | trans-oceanic fiight, his swimming | ashore after his plane had fallen into the sea too was regarded as an exhibition of his courage. The sclentific value of the flight| possessed the greatost interest for the officlals, 1t was evidenced in their congratulatory message to Commander Byrd and his com- panions. President Coolidge, Secre- tary of State Kellogg. Secretary of War Davis. and Byrd's own chief, Secretary Wilbur of the navy, all} stressed this polnt. “Onea more America s thrilled by | the splendid suceess of her aviators | In epanming the Atlantie” the state| rtment head said | Soeretary Davis of the war depart- mient. added this tribute: i “Tlearty congratulations to vou| Ard véwr associafes on the flight b ich agaln you link =science -and on.” A mossize transmitted by tary \\x\m.| throuzh val attache at Ta navy congratulates you “The entire personnel of the bu yeaw of asronantics congratulate vou ociates on vour great | sall a eablegram te Rear Admiral Moffett, chief hurcan of aeronautics. | Secre- and vour | Tirrd hv of the READ AFRALD CTASSITIED ADS | TOR BEST RESULTS Semi- Annual Y.
