Definitely Identified Pittsburgh, Sept. 3 (P —Lieuten- ant Samuel C. Eaton, commandant at Rodgers fleld here, said that a plane which undoubtedly was the French ship “?” passed over the fleld at 9:45 a. m., E. 8. T. Lieut ‘Eaton said that identification marks on the “wings were seen plainly. Fifteen minutes earlier ‘a red plane which was believed to be the ‘2" was ‘reported passing over Steubenville, O., southwest of hera. on its New York-Dallas, Tex., flight. Lieut. Eaton said the identification must have been incorrect since he could not be mistaken as to thz identity of the plane seen at Rodg- ers fleld. Ebensburg, Pa., Sept. 4 (P—Thz French transatlantic plane 2" pass- ed: over Ebensburg at §:45 a. m. E: 8. T, today on its way to Dallas, Tex. The ship was fying low and was headed due west. Leaves for West Valley Stream, N. Y., Sept. 4 (P— Preceded by their business manager, Dieudonne Coste and Maurice Bel- lonte took off at 6:55 (est) this morning for. Dallas, Tex., in an ef- fort to.collect a $25,000 prize of- fered by William Easterwood. The big red Sesquiplane which made the first non-stop west- ward crossing of the‘north Atlantic from Paris to New York circled once. over the field, and then shot like a scarlet comet against the morning sky toward its southern destination. Nine minutes before the transat. lantic ‘plane took the air, another ship hopped off with Rene Racover, Coste's American representative, who planned to attend to the trans- atlantic fliers’ business affairs in connection with collecting the East- erwood prize which was offered for the: first flight from Paris to Dallas with New York as the only inter- mediary stop. Starting Delayed The take off of the French fliers for the Texas city was delayed an hour by the necessity of construct- ing a special device for spinning the propeller which is set so high that it is very difficult for mechanics standing on the ground to start the engine. The device faile® but the motor was at last started by volun- teers who risked their lives by leap- ing into the air to hang on the high propeller blades. Capt. Dieudonne Coste expected to_make the journey to Dallas in from 12 to 15 hours. He had 42 gallons of gasoline pumpgd into the ship before he left. The radio which was in operation for all but the last few miles of the transatlan- tic journey still was broken when today's flight began, but no difficul- ty was expected, as perfect flying weather prevailed. The fliers arrived at the fleld about 8 a. m., having had less than 4 hours sleep. When they were awakened after their brief rest in 2 New York hotel Coste immediately jumped from bed ready for the new adventure, but Bellonte was less quick to face the day with so lrt(lo slumber. “Just ‘let me have five mmutes more sleep,” he begged when hc was shaken into consciousness but Coste, a strict’ disciplinarian,~ had him out of bed long before that per- iod elapsed. Once at the fleld, fueling was im- mediately begun under Coste's su- pervision and Bellonte immediately went to work upon maps of the route they are to cover. Coste Urges Haste ‘When the refueling was complet- ed and the plane first wheeled from the hangar newspaper photogra- phers and sound reel men surround- ed the ship and began taking in- numerable pictures of plane and crew. Coste, irked at the delay, kept shouting “Vite, vite,”” and finai- ly sueceeded fn' getting his ship to the flying line, Then came the delay occasioned by the difficulty in starting the mo- tor and when at last the engine burst into action and was sufficiently warmed to avoid all possible danger on the take off, the fliers lost not a moment in climbing into their fam- ous ship and following their manager Into the air. Coste announced before leaving that the course as plotted by Bel- lonte would lie over Easton, Allen- town and Pittsburgh, Pa.: Steuben- ville, Ohio; Cincinnati: Louisville; Little Rock and Greenville, Texas. Racover planned to stop at Louis- ville for fuel and probably wait there for Coste to catch up to him, for the red cabin monoplane in which the manager was flying is far faster than ‘he Sesquiplane. To Meet Over Texas Arrangement also was made for a rendezvous of the two planes in air above Greenville, Texas, which 'is about 40 miles from Dallas. The take-off today was witnessed by not more than 200 persons in striking contrast to the thousands who broke through police lines and = almost caused a riot of jubilation when the Frenchmen arrived here the day be- tore yesterday. The red Sesquiplane, veteran of al- most.countless adventured in the air, made a romantic picture! as it was towed. from its dim hangar into the early morning sunlight. On its“scar- let flanks were inscribed the names of far cities to which it has travelled under the guidance of the former wat ace who was at its controls to- ~ fay. Among these cities were such names as Tsitsikar, Karbine, Caleut- ta; Karachi. Athens, Rome, Hanoi, Shanghai. and Alep. For it is in this plang that Coste flew around the world except for the Pacific, made world records for both straight line and closed course dis- tance flights and in several weight carrying events. In contrast to the many sweaters and fur-lined flying suits in which \made up’ of men high in the state, the end of their cold flight along the Great Circle they were dressed today in clothes which suggested merely a Jjaunt to the seashore .ot the country club. ‘They wore light business suits under fliers’ overalls and, except for their helmets, were otherwise un- protected from the elements. / Meet German Flers New York, Sept. 4 (")—-Two trans- atlantic fifers who faced each other across battle lines of the great war, were friends today, bound together in the fraternity of their conquest of dangerous ocean air lines. Dieudonne Cost, French war ace and first to. fly from Paris to New York, and Captain Wolfgang Von Gronau, German . naval -aviator Quring the war, who recently flew a seaplane here from Germany, last night at an informal dinner given for Captain Gronau.and his crew of three by the German-Amer- ican conference. Although it had been planned as an all-German affair, invitations were sent at the last moment to Coste and his flight companion, Maurice Bellonte. Coste and Bellonte already were engaged as. hosts at a dinner to Colonel and-Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh. It was hardly expect- ed they would attend the Gronau function, Frenchmen Announced As the last course was served and speeches were about-to begin, the French fliers were announced. Ac- companying’ them were the Lind- berghs and Mayor Walker. They * were accorded a tremen- dous ovation by the several hundred guests and were welcomed by Cap- tain Gronau in ® short “speech in German. Coste, replying in French, said avi- ation knew 'no: border lines and fliers were all members of one fam- ily. Mayor Walker decfared the meet- ing the greatest step toward peace of mind he had ever heard. Colonel Lindbergh was introduced but declined: to speak, leaving the occasion to the French and German visitors. Plan Good Will Tour New York, Sept. 4 (#—The New York Times says Captain Dieudonne Coste and Maurice Bellonte prob- ably ‘will make a good will tour around the United States in the near future at the request of a commit- tee of leading citizens. While plans still are indefinite, it is understood the committee will be in aviation and in the diplomatic service and that the project will be financed by private subscription. Ambassador Dwight W. Morrow had been offered the chairmanship of the committee, but waived the honor fp favor of a higher officlal ‘He iS said. however. to have pledged substantial financial aid to the project. Will Accept Offer Rene, Racover, manager of the French fliers, when asked whether Coste and Bellonte would accept an invitation to make such a flight, re- plied, “certainly.” Captain Coste to Mr. Racover. Colonel Charles - A. L indbergh, who according to the report will be an active member of the committee, said, “There is nothing I can say about it at this time.” Richard F. Hoyt, of the banking firm ‘of Hayden, Stone & Co., it was | reported. would handle the financial arrangements for the flight. The projected plans call for the itinerary of the-flight to be arranged by the department of commerce through fits division of aeronautics. referred -inquirles ! Dallas Prepare Welcome Dallas, Tex., Sept. 4 (#—The tri- color of France and the stars and stripes floated together in Dallas to- day as a thrilled city suspended nor- mal activities to give a traditional Texas welcome to Captain Dieudonne Coste and Maurice Bellonte, French air voyageurs who conquered the At- lantic. This city was the rendezvous of airmen throughout the southwest who winged their way here to par- ticipate in the welcome of the Frenchmen, flying to Dallas . from New York to collect a purse of $25,- 000 offered by Col. Willlam E. Easterwood, now in Dublin. Fifteen army planes from Kelly field, San Antonio, were in the con- voy assembled here to fly north to greet._the scarlet sesquiplane which triumpled over ~more than 4,000 miles of storms, fogs and hazardous weather between Le Bourget and Curtiss fields. Comrade to Be Present A comrade who once met hdz- ards far different from fogs and storms. in company with the French ace, ‘planned to be among the thou- sands to welcome him. He is R. DeFrance, member of Captain Coste's wartime squadron, now a resident of San Antorio. The program. of welcome called for official greetings from Governor Dan Moody, or his representative, in behalf of the state. Detachments of Dallas policemen, assijted by several conpanies of Na- tional Guardsmen, had been assigned to guard planes at the field and keep the crowd from rushing in upon the fliers when they landed. The National Broadcasting com- pany had opened a special wire from Dallas to New York for a coast to coast network broadcast of the land- ing and reception,” with station WFA4, a 50,000 watt station, as the | key station. After ceremonies at the field, a parade into town was planned and a_dinner in honor of Coste and Bel- lonte was.arranged for tonight. ! Easterwood Absent Colonel Easterwood, whose offer of §25,000 attracted the French fly- ers to Dallas, is the official greeter of-the city by appointment of Mayor J. Waddy Tate. In the colonel’s ab- sence, his personal representative, George Smith, Snyder, Texas, news- paper man, assisted in welcoming preparations. Some uncertainty still remaindl as to the terms of Colonel Easterwood's contract with the French fliers. His representatives here said they had no direct authorization to -present the purse to Coste and Bellonte on their arrival. They. expressed the Lelief the money had been posted.‘n Paris. The purse was one of many Col. Easterwdod has offered for aviation feats.

Madame Coste intends to sail for New York as soon as possible, but not until she has completed a mo- tion picture in which she is being featured here. “I can hardly wait to join Dieu- donne in America, but I am engaged at present in ‘an unfinished picture,” she sajd. “I will certainly leave on the soonest boat possible, for I am dylng to see New York.

Anyway, I can speak French, German and Russian, and that should be enough for the pres- ent.” Coste and’ his wife met in Paris four years ago. Marie Coste has had a successful career in motion pic- tures in Europe. Her hobby is col- lecting every conceivable kind of doll and her charming apartment in the exclusive Passy district is usually filled with her favorite sou- venirs. Her pet name for her husband is “Doudou.” Madame Costs has inaugurated a new fashion, wearing a white beret on which there is a red question mark, similar to the markings of her husband's famous airplané. SANTO DOMINGD . ENTIRELY RUINED; 900 THOUGHT DEAD (Continued From First Page} were killed or injured The hurricane struck mingo at 2 p. m. and blew for four hours. Houses in the aristocratic quarter were razed to their founda- tions. Dwellings of the poor section were swept on the wings of a wind estimated. to be blowing around 150 miles an hour. Horror scenes exceeding anything witnessed here in 10 vears, followed its passage. President Rafael Thu- jillo took personal charge of the re- liet work. The entire army was call- ed out. The . communications systems of the republic were totally disrupted. No riews came from the rest of the country, but in the neighborhood of the . capital bridges were = wrecked and roads were rendered impassable. Telegraph lines simply vanished. Newspaper Plant Destroyed The plant of the newspaper La Opinion, Associated Press member in Santo Domingo, was destroyed. of its staff opportunity disaster to the Santo Do- at the first available sent a story of the New York offices. A building adjoining La Opinion’s plant crumbled before the wind. Three of its 15 occupants perished. The insane asylum was destroyed and those inmates escaping death ran wild through the city streets, adding to the horror of the disorder and confusion everywhere. They finally were recaptured by soldiers and police. Officials and newspapers appealed for aid to the American press and to all charitable organizations in the United States. Hunger began to show its effects today. There have been many robberies. The districts of Neuva Villa, Duarte and San Carlos were de- stroyed, with scarce a wreck of a wall left standing. Population About 35,000 Washington, Sept. 4 (#—The City of Santo Domingo. reported half- ruined and in need of miedical sup- plies and water for those suffering from the wrath of the hurricane, held. an estimated population . of 35,000 three years ago.

The: country over .which the storm wreaked havoc is extremely rugged and woody. It covers 19,332 square miles and has three major mountain ranges running east and west. Along the southern boundary of the great plain of Vega Real, which is 140 miles Tong and 15 to 30 miles wide, stands Lima Tina, the highest mountain in the West In- dies, reaching upward 10,300 feet. Mountains Numerous Irregular mountain spurs break the remainder of the country, while waterfalls dot the myriad of streams in the valleys.

Officials of the Santo Daminican | legation here said they had been unable to obtain any word from the hurricane-swept republic and were forced to rely on press dispatches. Weather bureau officers were studying reports with a view to as- certaining the direction of the storm.
