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.
Passage Is Very Tough
Describing hi strons-Atlantic flight,
Mnttern aaid:
"It sure was a tough passngo over
the ocean. Last year's, flight was
like going to California 1y compari
son". .
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." ,

Interest on Lane
Daily Balance to
Cease on June 9
The four hanks in Lnne county and
tho First National bank of Portland
Mondry filed Applifntbu with the
county court to be declared deposi
tories of Lane county funds for the
coming year, nnd the usual two per
cent interest on daily balances will
be pnid. but nfter .Tune 0 the Interest
wil cense, the banks announced.
Under a new law passed by the
Inst state legislature interest on daily
bnlnnccs of county or other public
funds Is not compulsory. It simply
provides that the governing body and
tho bnnka may mnke arrangements
for interest, but the banks have de
cided they will pay none.
The county budget committee In
December budgeted $5000 ns est i-
mnted income from this source, but
they will lose perhaps half this sum
as a result of the decision of the
banks to cut off the niterest on daily
balances.
