Should present low pressure con- tinue over Russia, forcing Dr. ener to take the southern rou dispatches from Friedrichsha dicate, he will have to go farther| but a more beautiful and interest-| ing earth-scape will reward him. | Mountain chains fringe this tra from the Caucasus to the Hindu-| kush and the Altal.

Desert Comes Next Then would come thousands of miles of semi-desert, the region to which Leon Trotsky was exiled. | Sarts, Tartars and Asiatic Kirkghiz, roam about Russian settlements re- | claimed from aridity by irrigation. Severe earthquakes shake the towns. | ‘The architectureis all of one story. Brave falst fronts, more elaborate than those of America’s Pioneer west, simulate the second story. Should the Graf Zeppelin passen- | gers come down into one of these towns, they would find in hose false fronts, so like the saloons of the old west, a correct keynote on the life farther on, from Krasno- yarsk to the coast. TFor travelers have agreed that the “howling wolves and snow-weighted pin2 trees” concept of Siberia must go Siberia should be thought of rather as another frontier, like the Amer- fcan west of 50 to 100 years ago. Lawlessness Rules “Lawlessness, freedom, opportu- nity, a place to live life over again. great distances, vastness, nd gloriousness of scenery,” was the word-picture of one recent rambler who insisted that the only changes required to transform the present “wild east” into the old American “wild west” would be details of language and custom and names of places. Another visitor found “all the in- teresting people in Siberia," explain- fng that the old exile system sent many of Russia’'s brightest and most fearless citizens there, “Night life is never dull”" was anoth:r comment, and high tribute paid to the colorful Siberian —a chance for the Zeppelin find a proper frame. Geographers consider it likely that Dr. Eckener may follow rather| closely the trans-Siberian railway on the eastern half of his trip, because of communication protection it would afford in an emergency, They | also suggest that the strained relu-| tions between tussia and Chiny| might lead him to stay over Rus-| sian soll all the way to the sea, in- stead of taking the short cut acrc Manchuria.

The financial committee of the conference, meeting today after a day's recess, had before it a formal debate on that part of the Young plan dealing with paymerts in kind, with the principle address by Louis Loucheur, French minister of labor, Stall For Time Seen The debate, too, seemed another stall for time, with the conference delegates hoping their leaders would find a way to meet the demands of Philip 8nowden for a greater share of German reparations without fur- ther crifices on their part. Negotiations to this end, however, have reached the coffee cup and | tete-a-tete stage only and if a settle- ment is to be forthcoming it prob- ably will result from these informal conversutions between Mr, Snowden Henri Cheron and italian and Be! gian finance ministry officials. The dominant note in conference circles today was that after passing the dangerous crisis of last week the conference must not fail.

By 1 o'clock this morning persons had been arrested in East Chicago and Indiana Harbor, the two cities against which the agents concentrated their drive. As rapid- ly as the prisoners could be taken to Crown Point for arraignment be- {fore a United States commissioner, the 250 ralders returned to the roundup, which they d would not be completed until approximately 3 arrests had been made.

In many places the igents found girls acting as bar- waids, and they were sent with the others to Crown Point for arralgn- ment, There was no parallel for the ralds since 1923, when federal men sur- prised liquor traffickers in Gary, sending 51 men and women to prison. Among those imprisoned following the Gary raids city's present mayor, Roswell O, Johnson.

A ramrod used by the detail was found 270 feet uway, indicating that | it was in the gun when the explosion | occurred. Unofficially it was report- d that the men were behind the gun when it fired. The presumption is that Ainsko- wich was bending over the breach and the eiher two were standing be hind him when the cartridge went off. Thig is based on the fact that Ainskowich was struck in the neck and suffered a severed jugular vein nd the other two had opposite hands injured by the back fire from the gun and the shattered breach.

The five engines of the dirigible were gone over once again, a last inspection was given the fabric which clothes food, supplies and the ship's cargo of mail were stowed away and a final check-up was made of every ele- ment. * X In the maps, Zeppelin company offices charts and weather reports, ologists, were subject to intensive scrutiny by Dr. Hugo Kckener, the ship's master, and his aides. They expected prior to departure to state somewhat more definitely the d gible's course across northern Asia. | As time for take-off approached recognitjon became more and more general that the Graf was undertak- ing a voyage which will test i speed, endurance and air worthi- ness considerably more than any mere transatlantic crossing. Northern Route Worst Particularly did the possible e: route, northeas! ward from Lenlngrad to Yakutsk, seem a supreme test, although as a matter of fact weather conditions that far north were said to be better for an eastward flight than farther south, by way of Ifkutsk. Much of the route along the northern cour: would lie north of the Arctic circle. The 20 passengers, who with 40 | officers and crew will'be ahoard the Zeppelin, already have gathered here from all parts of Europe. They were happy at the prospect of .get ting away early tomorrow— (proba- bly before midnight tonight, E. S. T.) No one seemed to fear the out- come of the trip, or to Le contem- plating it with any emotion other than enjoyment. Food Arrangements Complete Otto Manz, chief de cuisine, said preparation of food to be served on the long flight practically was com- plete. The menu will be the same as on the trip to America, save that the fare will be simpler. Inasmuch as the flying will be in northerly and colder regions a high proportion of fats will be taken along, such as bacon and ham. There will be only one official mascot aboard the Zeppelin, Captain Hans Von Schiller said, remarking: “Some friends of the Zeppelin in New York gave us an amusing look- ing blue bird—I suppose it is a blue heron—with long legs and its feet encased in enormous shoes which put it all over the ordinary movie | comedian. “Knut Eckener add>d to {ts In- its rigld framework, | | | furnished in part by Soviet meteor- | | | imitable appearance by putting dark rimmed spectacles < ~ :ts nose.” The mascot was perched in one of the front windows of the control gondo- la, watching the scene ahead. King Visits Alrship Dr. Eckener was guest yesterday at a luncheon at the beautiful Was- serberg summer chaieau to which King Gustay of Sweden was invited. The king expressed to Dr, Eckener and the constructors of the Zeppelin his admiration of their work for the science of aviation and asked that the Graf be brought soon to Sweden.
