May Be Plaming to Go Into| Business Career Detroit, Feb. 24.—(M—Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, who has been conferring here with leaders of the | alrcraft industry preparatory, it is believed, to launching into a business | career, today maintained silence re- | zarding his plans. The colonel, whose name rumor ' persists in linking with a reported | new Chicago-New York alr trans-i portation project, refused to grant | interviews and expressed a desire to drop out of public life altogether. | His request was reinforced by one from his mother, Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh, who sald the Colonel has ‘permanently retired from the pub- lic spotlight.” At the same time Edsel Ford, Major Thomas G. Lanphier, Stout Airways officials, an dthe group of | St. Louis aircraft industry repre- <entatives who accompanied Colonel Lindbergh here were equally reti- cent, Deny Reports Members of the group were quick to deny published reports that the purpose of Lindbergh's visit here | concerned a new airplane designed by himselt and Major Lanphier, but they would neither affirm nor deny the rumor concerning the new Chi- cago-New York air line, The report concerning the project, | touched on vaguely by Major Lan- phier in an addreas at Buffalo Tues- day night, received further impetus last nightgfrom a etatement by Peter | F. Piiasecki, postmastcr at Mil- waukee. Mr. Piiaseck! said he has been advised of plans for formation of the mew air line by the Stout Air- ways corporation to operate passen- ger and mail express ships, The proposed line, he said, would have its base at Chicago and would include Milwaukee, Grand Rapids, Detroit, Buffalo, Syracuse and Al- bany as terminal: branch line at Montreal, he added, would meet the mail at Albany, with planes going from there down the Hudson to New York.
