Clarence Schildhauer of Phila

Explaining the delay 01 almost

thence to North America, Schild
hauer said It was not the. purpose
of the crew to make a dash
against time.
"The feasibility of transocean

of this expedition."
The flight of the DO-X from

spotted with mishaps. 'After she
left Germany one wing was de
