i News from Jerusalem is dis

three Arabs were killed am.
310 others were injured in an
outbreak of racial and religious
hatred. Thousands of Arabs
had gathered for prayer at the
mosque of the Omar. Aged
Jewish worshippers, assembled
id the wailing wall, were
stoned.
.A.Russian Christian was mis
taken for a Jew and severely
beaten. To make matters worse
Jewish communists, said to
come from Russia, issued a
proclamation calling on "all
' Palestine to break down Brit
m imperialism." In Pales
'line Arabs outnumbered Jews
ten to one. It would seem un
wise to drive out the protect
ing British forces at - this
Moment.

Both were hanged in Quebec
on Friday, on a gallows paint

flight across the Pacific ocean,
achh-ved in three days and seven
hours, was loss than one-third the
time the fastest trans-Pacific liners
cross the ocean between Japan
and Seattle. Wash.-
Sixty persons made the voyngo,
41 in the crew and 11 passengers.
The final leg of the circumnaviga
tlon voyage will he to Lukehurst,
some 2,600 mlk's, and will be start
ed within 36 or 48 hours. During
the stny in Los AngeU-s it will be
moored to the mast.
Troops of the California National
riuard marched out on the field
ah the Zeppelin came to earth and
the ground orew began moving it
toward the mooring mast. These
troops formed a circle around the
sky cruiser fls the mooring was he-'
I Ing completed.
It came to a halt about a mile
from the mooring mast as the full
ground crew of marines and blue
jackets mhde ready to carry it over
to the mast.
Pliliifs Circle Zep.
Six naval planes circled over
head as the big silvery ship came
to earth.
The planes appeared as tiny
birds hovering over the vast hulk
of the 771-foot globe-circling ship.
At 5:23 a. m. the Zeppelin be
gan to move slowly towards the
mooring mast, carried by th.'
American marines and bluejackets.
The assembled multitude was
awed into silence by the Impres
sive spectacle of the great silver
craft majestically going through
the operations of landing and
mooring.

Pacific liner touched the moor

Dr. Hugo Kckener, comma nd-r

a statement, but a writ ten state

was lost as the wind tore it from
his hand as he leaned from 1 he

LOS AXfiKLES MUNICIPAL
AIKPORT, Aug. 20. (A3) The
CJraf Zeppelin, 771-foot airship itpou
which the eyes of the world are
focused was being girded today
for the last lup in an around the
world air cruise after having just
made the first non-stop air flight
acrosd the 1'uclflc.
Arriving at dawn, three and a
quarter 'days from Japan, the
great dirigihle expected to leave
before midnight 'for Lakehiirst, N.
J. This would have it fly over
Cleveland, Heat of the national air
races, if weather permits a comse
via Kl Paso, Kansas City, SL Ijouis,
Chicago and Celevehuid.
The ground and refueling crews
worked at top speed without a
hitch and were confident of hav
ing the ship prepared to take ofl'
nt 8 o'clock. The order of depar
ture, however, wan for 11 o'clock.
Nineteen passengers. thrilled
with the most spectacular air ride
in the history of air transport,
were enthusiastic to ride on to the
completion of circumnavigation of
the globe. A symposium of their
comments would make a Btring of
superlatives, "magnificent." "In
spiring," "marvelous," ' 'vonderful.'
Passengers Enthuse
The passengers seemed to he In
perfect accord with the thought
that the day of llghter-than-alr
trans-oceaiiic commerce had ar
rived. The Graf Zeppelin experienced a
wide variety of climatic conditions
on its 16,880 mile Journey thus far.
These conditions, passengers re
vealed, indicated the necessity for
development of more adequate
meteorological stations throughout
International air lanes.
Dr. Hugo Kckener, despite two
days of serious Illness, due to food
poisoning shortly after the sky
cruiser left Japan, piloted the dirig
ible into such favorable wind chan
nels, changing course to meet ad
vantageous winds, that lie crossed
the Pacific In less than 68 hours.
His actual time from Kastiml

ing the California coast at o'clock
last night to mooring at r::t."i this

skies.
Cruised Over Towns
It sailed over Us Angeles and
waved greeting signals to the
crowds in Los Angeles and other
nearby 'towns, and then cruised
around for some four hours until
sunrise.
Original plans were for a take
off Home .:, to 4X hours after ar

Instructions were issued to refuel

Mrs. Louise McPhet ridge Thaden
of Pittsburg appeared over the
Cleveland municipal airport at
2:14 p. ni.( completing the last
leg of thu ulr race fron Columbud
where she had taken off ut 1:30

The undaunted woman filer who
led the air derby most of the way
from Santa Monica, Cal., where It
started, August 1 8, appeared cer
tain of victory by more than an
hour of elapsed time, but her
achievement will have to be
checked by the unofficial judges
before her victory 1b made certain.
Closely following Mrs. Thaden
was Blanche Noyes. Cleveland, who
.circled over the Cleveland airport
at 3:21i:30.
Mrs. Thaden piloted a whirlwind
Travelnir, and Mist Noyes also
was In a Tnivohiir.

was ou'y a half minute behind

national air races cheered.

In fourth place came Amelia
Karhart, the trans-Atlantic flier,
who set her plane down on the
municipal airport at 2:29.
As Mrs. Thaden landed, field
attendants, officials, photographers
newspapermen and even spectators
rushed out to surround her plane.
She was carried to the grandstand
where she spoke over the amplify
ing system, totting the crowd of
her pleasure in. leading the derhy
racers.
Two of the filers may be dls
qualilled and thus prevented from
