Good-Bye to Paris. Le Bourget, France, July 8 (®— Clarence D. Chamberlin, New York- to-Germany flier, sald good-bye to France today when he piloted the transatlantic Bellanca monoplane Columbia, probably for the last time, into th> air from the civil fly- ing field here, headed for London. Beside him sat Maurice Drouhin, French long distance flier, who if all goes well. wil fly the Columbia over the Atlantic and back to Roosevelt Fleld, New York, some time in August in the first non-stop westward transatlantic hop. Charles A. Levine, owner of the plane, who will accompany Drouhin in the attempt, also went along on today's hop. He had found & few inches of space just enough to let him lle down comfortably, on the gasoline tank. The start was made at 12:30 p. m. Two Imperial Alrways machines acted as escorts, looking for all the world like big dragon flles with a newly-hatched fledgling, the Colum- bia, tollowing along behind. There was only a small crowd at the fleld, for the weather was wet | and unpleasant. Among them was the American charge d'affaires, Shelden Whitehouse, who came out some time before the start to say | good-bye to Chamberlin and then “hurried back to Paris for the Junch- eon he gave in honor of Command- er Byrd and his companions. Mrs. Chamberlin and Mrs. Levine waved encouragement to their husbands and the former took an Imperial Afrways machine to follow the Columbia to Croydon Field, London. Mrs. Levine did not "Be{cre starting, Drouhin told the Associated Press he was most hap: Dy at the opportunity to pllot the ' Columbia on the return transatlan- * tie flight. oL :m delighted,” he satd. “Of " eourse, I would have preferred to g0 t in my own plane with Lebrix, my - own navigator, but it would take much , ready to tune up than the Bellanca plane.” He sald he would start some time in August, after the arrival of John _Carisi, chiet mechanician of th|0. company that bullt the Columbia, who is bringing spare parts. longer to get my machine | attempt to fly across the Atlantic in a giant Goliath plane with Lieuten- ant L.

Byrd's Program for Day Paris, July 8.—(A—A private luncheon given in their honor by Sheldon Whitehouse, American charge d'affaires, was the first event today for Commander Byrd, Bert Acosta and Lieutenant Noville who, after the departure of Bernt Balch- en, fourth member of the America’s crew, for Rotterdam, lounged about their hotel and took the opportunity for a good rest from the tiring pro- grams they have been through thus far. It was the first time that Com- mander Byrd and Lieutenant No- ville have had a chance to get into civilian clothes since their arrival in Paris. The leader of the trans- | atlantic flying expedition wore a dark blue single-breasted suit, with the Legion of Honor Rosette in his buttonhole, while Lieutenant Noville | was in a lounge suit of similar hue. | Commander Byrd beat his com- panions out of bed and went for a walk with Captain White, American naval attache.

Reports at the time were that Ambassador Sheffield was “not whol- Iy pleased with the action of Secre- tary Kellogg in consulting Mr. War- ren, but if there was any rift on that score the fact was closely guarded. During a visit of Ambassador Sheftield to Washington in mid- summer, 1926, state department bf- ficials insisted that despite surface indications of a disagreement be- tween the ambassador and the secretary tirey were working in harmony. At the same time secre- tary Kellogg took occasion to deny a published report that the ambas- sador had resigned. Before returning to Mexico City late in the year, the ambassador was a guest at the White House. His, visit there was covered with secrecy but later it was authoritatively stat- ed that Mr. Sheffield had the full YOUNGSTERS LEAD SAFETY CANPAIGN| “Junior Town"” Residents Prom- ised Aid of City OMicials “Junior Town” residents .at the Chautauqua are planning a safety first campaign and today received assurances of cooperation from Mayor Weld and Chief of Police Hart.
