Ho covered the distance from Olso smoothly, except for part of the way BEATS LINDY'S MARK! NICW YOIIK, June C Wi lly a matter of just a few miles it nppearrd today that James Mat- . tern, solo globe-girdling flier, un officially hud bettered Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh's six year old solo distance record of H.ti-lu miles from New York to I'aris. Kstimntes were that the Texas aviator covered about 3,070 miles In his flight from New -York to Norway 30 miles more than the Lone Eagle hopped non-stop across the Atlantic In 1027. Tin Mattcrn flight also lopped ten hours off the Lindbergh flying time a difference which aviation followers said was not due so much to Mnttem's skill as to the 500-horso power motor In bis monoplane. Lindbergh's "Spirit of St. Louis' was powered by a 200 horse power motor. over the Baltic, where he was obliged to fly blind. He entered the Soviet Union at the Sovlet-Esthnnian fron tier. While Slattern ambitiously hoped to push on to Novosibrisk, 1700 miles eastward In Ciberia, Soviet officials suggested It would bo better to stop nt Omsk, 400 miles short of Novosib irsk. They wero almost certain to in sist that ho follow Ihe southern route along the Trnns-Hiberian railway,, through Onfsk, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, (on Lake Halknl) and Khahornvsk, near the Pacific const.

Mnttern said he had first Intended to aim for Paris, llo found the first 400 miles smooth and then it sud denly "iced up." He tried unsuccess fully to escape the freezing sleet which covered his wings by flying at different levels. Ho finally decided to change his course northward, "but 1 only found mora ice." , WIFE IS HAPPY! WALLA W WALLA, Wnsh., June 6.
