This was by direction of Command

the route beyond that point to be
determined by weather conditions.
The 771 foot seppclln came Into
Los Angeles from the San Fernando

about 1,000 feet. After circling the
downtown section, It turned toward
the airport, fifteen miles from the
city hall. Over the airport It glid
ed then continued through the
beach districts of Santa Monica bay,
then swinging back through the
southwest section at an altitude
ranging from a thousand to elgh
teen hundred feet.
The drone from motors brought
many people out of houses. Part

the ground crew began moving it
toward the mooring mast. These
troops formed a circle around the

The nose of the newest trans-

Dr. Hugo Eckener, commander of
the Oraf Zeppelin, who was serious
ly 111 for two days 01 tne trip irom
Tnkvn was rushed bv motor to a
downtown hotel. Arrangements had
been made to Issue a statement,
but a written statement he had pre
pared Sunday nliht was lost as the
wind tore it from ni ns.nu ma c
leaned from the control room gon
dola north of Santa Barbara.
He was highly enthusiastic over
the success of the trip and convin
ced that it thus far has demon
strated the commercial feasibility
of lighter than air transport In
ocean commerce. It was indicated by
those with whom he talked during
the lat hours of the trip.
Sir Hubert Wllklns said "It was
pleasant to take this trip for pleas
ure, and be free from responsibility.
However, the globe tour has proved
to us the value of metero logical
forecast Before air lines can be
operated successfully we must have
greater cooperation among weather
experts, and reports from many
more fields. I congratulate Dr.
Hugo Eckener on the success of his
flight. We have seen many inter
esting points of the globe from an
unusual point of view. The uncultiv
able steppes of Siberia, the rain
drenched fields of the Orient and
the cloud banked Pacific, were
among the most Interesting sights
1 have ever seen."
Lady Drummond Hay said "this
trip was Interesting, but it did not
carry the thrill of that remarkable
record-breaking flight from New
York to Pried richsha fen. However,
the two most remarkable sights I
ever have seen were San Francisco,
last night against a colorful sun
set, and Los Angeles this morning
In a beautiful clear sunrise."
Lieut, Commander Charles
RosendahL hero of the Shenandoah
disaster, said: "this was the finest
flight I ever had. I enjoyed every
minute ol It. We took advantage of
every wind we could find which Is
the reason we changed our course.
That and the resultant remarkable
speed .was one of the chief things
which made the) Sight such an un

700 BALES OF
1928 HOPS SOLD
FOR 14 1-2 CENTS
In the neighborhood of 700 bales
of the 1928 crop of hops were pick
ed up last week by Williams and
Hart at 14 H cents, the purchases
being in scattered sections of the
valley mainly In the vicinities of
Albany, Aurora, Independence and
Silverton. This, according to lo
cal compilations, left a total of 1506
bales of the 1828 crop, ox wnicn oo&
bales are fuggles.
, picking of the new crop of fuggles
and early clusters Is proceeding
with many growers saying that they
will not pick all their hops this
year for one reason or another but
principally market reasons. It Is
reported also that a percentage of
demands lor burlap is being can
celled. However, to what extent
there will be hops not picked must
wait until along in September when
the late cluster picking Is under
way as many things may happen
between now and then. But there
is no particular feeling of optimism
among growers or dealers about the
future of the hop market. One au
thority estimated that If all the
hops are picked there would be a
crop of 60,000,000 pounds this year,
but under conditions It is expected
to run far leas when picking is fin
ally done.
T. A. Llvesley returned Sunday
night from British Columbia where
picking on his holdings up there
Is under way and he states he has
acres to pick in that section
this year. He says the hops are
coming down fine and clean and
that a fine crop is looked for up
there.
JEWS SLAUGHTERED
BY ARABMOSLEMS
(Continued from page 1)
salem was so well patrolled that the
outbreaks began to spread to other
points, at the Jewish agricultural
settlement of Emek Israel at Na-
hallaL near Nazareth, and points
near Jaffa.
Arabs seemed to be well organ
ized. They attacked in full force
at several places. They set fire to
the communist colony near Talipot
and also attempted to burn the
synagogue at Hebron. They were
well organized along the highways
and stopped every passing automo
bile, searching for Jews.
The Jewish police were Informed
here that a new force of Arabs was
advancing upon the city from Heb
ron and Nablus, but the patrol here
was regarded as sufficiently strong!
to cope with the situation. I
The greatest massacre was com
mitted at Hebron Sunday where.lt
was reported that 45 persons in
cluding three Rabbis, were slain be
fore the troops quelled the riot and
stopped the slaughter. Oxford
students, summarily enrolled as
special constables, helped to drive
the attackers out of the town and
to restore order. But the sniping
continued throughout the night

According to local Jewish reports
the Arabs attacked the Rabbinical
school with full force, killing 42
students, the dean of the Rabbis
and two of his assistant. Forty
seven of the students were wound
ed. The warfare broke out on Friday
in connection with the Wailing
Wall remnant of the great temple
and symbol of the day of Jewish
glory more than 30 centuries ago.
The wall, recognized as belonging
to the Jews, stands on Moslem
ground and has been a bone of
contention for years. For cen
turies It has been the most sacred
spot In all Jewry and because of
that the Jews have been insisting
that the British government give
them the ground upon which the
wall stands.

German and Japanese passengers

their native languages.
It was more than Just the landing
of the Graf Zeppelin that caused
excitement in the household of
Colonel and Mrs. Henry R. Rich

Three of the five first men to

They were Lieutenants Leslie Ar
nold, Leigh Wade and Henry Ogden,
members of the Army around-the-
world flight in 1923. .
Two of the five, Captain Lowell
Smith and Lieut. Eric Nelson, were
not able to be present.
Sunday night might well have
been termed "perfect alibi night"
by Los Angeles and southern Cal
ifomians who happened to need or
want an alibi. Hardly any wife
would have been able to dispute her
spouse's statement "I was down on
top of an office building with some
of the boys waiting for the Oraf
Zeppelin."
The thousands who stayed up all
night to wait for the Graf Zeppelin
had various phrases to express their
first opinions of the sky monster.
The most popular included:
"A giant silver cigar."
"A big gray bullet."
A silver shadow.
"A gray ghost across the sky."
Brilliantly lighted airplanes skirt
ed the skies for a half hour or more
before the Oraf Zeppelin arrived

believe they had sighted the oral.
There was no mistaking, however.

the weather was balmy.
The temperature Monday varied

Herbert Hoover, Jr., son of the
president, was to have broadcast a
description of the Oraf as it came
in over Los Angeles but he was un
able to reach the city In time. His

A great parcel of his own papers

a guest of honor Tuesday at a
huge reception In Alhambra.
