' On the north tiantie trouble milking Kussia stretches from tilt borders of l'russia across i Kurnpo over into Asia. A L'lance lit the map shows hundreds of millions of Asiatic population, impatient under European rule, ready to blaze into rebellion. , The Hritish are worried by possibilities of revolt through out the Near Kast. To suppress, with a stronu bund, the rioting; and murder ing in Jerusalem and other parts of Palestine, is not merely a mutter of f ull'illini; obliga tions solemnly assumed, but of protecting the integrity of the liritisb empire. The Vatican is reported to be much concerned as to the safety of church shrines in .Jerusalem. If Arabs were allowed to get the upper band definitely, one of the first steps prompted by Mohammedan enthusiasm would be the destruction of Christian shrines uud churches.

Clearing the way whit difficulty through an applauding crowd, the hiawny marines escorted the adven turers of the air to private motor cars or to buses that carried them to a special train. Some posed for the legions of phologruphers or paused to nay a lew wordu to re porters or to addrofls a vast, radio audience, but there was no time for leisurely recital of the perils and the glory of their great adventure. Lieutenant Commander Chas. K. Itusendaltl, U. S. N.. survivor of the ShcnumloHh disaster, was the first to step on solid land. The trip, he said, was "not without its thrills." hut added that It "was marvelous, M and l ha f it "exceeded all expecta tions." Lady Hay Happy Itdy Uraee Dnininumd Hay alighted, petite in leather travel ing coat and simple, felt hat.

A few minutes later, however, she found herself, face to face wilh a microphone, Ptiying. "I am happiest girl in the world, to think that we are hack again utter our most wonderful trip. Thank yon all for your wonderful welcome. I am very nervous, and can't say more." Puffing on an am-jenl-looking pipe, his first smoke since the Craf loft Los Angeles, William B.

The whole trip whs ho wonderful, he said, that he was unable to "(so late any part of It that 1 could call my biggest thrill."
