In the tri-motored Ford reli plane in which they landed here yes- terday from an eight and one half hour flight from lonely Greenly Island, the Bremen crew planned the trip 1o the capital to lay a wreith on the grave at Arlington National cemetery of Floyd Bennett, who originally command d the relief ex- pedition. Decision to postpone their arrival t Mitchel Field, N. Y., the original stination of their flight from Dub- lin, was announced after a confer- ence with Miss Herta Junkers, daughter of the builder of the trans- atlantic plane Bremen. She decided to fly to Washington with them. Storms in Path The flight from Greenly Island was through several snow storms during which Major James I maurice, and Captain Hermann Koehl of the Bremen crew alternat- ed at the controls with Bernt Balch- en, pilot of the Ford plane, but the plane arrived on schedule. Several hundred persons had gathered on the frozen lake that serves as a landing tield here and set ! up a cheer when the plane piloted by Balchen came to a perfect land- ing on its skiis Newspaper men and photogra- phers, many of whom had been here | more than two weeks awaiting the arrival of the Bremen crew, swarm- ed about them, firing questions and State uniform over which he wore a | red coat, was the first to step from the plane.

To this Baron von Hucnefel plied in the same language. appreciate the beundless hospitality of the people of Canada.” he said, “and thank you from the bottom of our hearts.” The baron added that e and his comrades hoped to come inada at a later date and ex- ed of the kind- ness they had received. Some time in the future, he said, it was their wish o again visit Greenly Island and furt their thanks and gratitude.

Baron von Huenefeld said the Bremen would be left on its improvised scaffolding on Green- Iy Island until spring when a break- up of the ice in Belle Isle straits would permit it to be brought out by steamer.
