France could not make up
her mind yesterday whether or
iot she would approve the in
ternational moratorium sug
gested by President Hoover.
Belgium was sure she did not
want the moratorium. If she
gave up the money that Ger
many must , pay this year, it
would cost ' her $22,000,000.
That is "real money" in Bel
gium. Because of this and oth
er things, Wall Street was not
quite so cheerful yesterday, al
though only too anxious to "re
spond"' to anything.

Aviation in the United States
progresses slowly because the
government, which should lead,
lags behind, waiting on private
initiative,, which must work
with an eye to profits only.
However, there were recently
no fewer than thirteen Ameri
cans planning to fly across the
Atlantic, including one girl,
Ruth Nichols, determined to
fly the Atlantic alone. This
will be a flying country one of
these days. ' " ,
General Mitchell says: "This
country of ours is, above all, an
air country. We can "beat the
world at it, if properly organ
ganized and properly handled.''
The proper handling and organ
ization will come.
With thirteen aviators' plan
ning to fly-the Atlantic, it is
interesting to remember that
just 25 years ago Northcliffe
offered $50,000 to anybody that
would fly the narrow English
channel, and paid the money to
a Frenchman, Bleriot. Thou
sands of children could fly it
now.

Dr. Kipfer, who went ten
miles up into the stratosphere
with Professor Piccard, says
fighting in, the future will be
, done twenty miles up in the air,
far beyond -the sight of those
on earth, making anti-aircraft
weapons useless, lie also sug
gests that a flight to the moon
Mil be possible. Millions will
laugh at this, ' as they would
have laughed twenty-five years
ago at the suggestion that men
would some day fly the Atlan
tic and Pacific.
Powerful man is Mussolini.
He decided in 192G to wipe out
the "Mafia," an organization
of blackmailers, dreaded and
obeyed in Sicily until M ussolini
came. Proceedings in that case

Post and Gatty, 'Young Men
in a Hurry' to Girdle
Globe Negotiate Atlantic
in 16 Hours Machine
and Men in Good Shape
BERLIN, Germany, June 24. (JP)
Wiley Post and Harold Gatty,
American rounc-the-world filers,
completed the first lap of their
world girdling flight at 8:80 p. m.
(2:30 p. m. E. S. T.), landed at
Tempelhor air field after making
stops at Chester, England, and at
Hanover, Germany.
The airmen circled the field in
a "round of honor" before descend
ing on the field where Clarence A.
Chamberlain and Charles Levlne
completed their New York-to-Ger-many
night in 1927.
Lufthansa officials welcomed the
airmen with two big bouquets while
lirport officials were on hand with
a bottle of champagne.' . .
It was almost 24 hours to the
minute since their departure from
Harbor Grace on their round-the-world
flight that 'Post and Gatty
set the wheels of their plane down
to an enthusiastic welcome this
evening.
In that 24 hours they had flown
the Atlantic, had landed at Ches
ter, England, lor a brief bite to eat,
had refueled and then gone to Ber
lin, stopping off for a breezy visit
at Hanover en route.
CHESTER, England. June 24.
(P) Wiley Post and Harold Gatty,
'two young men In a hurry on
a flight around the world, landed
safely at- the Zealand royal all
force airdromo near hero this
morning on a flight across the
Atlantic, snatched a bite to eat
and hopped off for Moscow, via
Berlin. .
'Hello, England, we've done It,"
said Gatty. when ,-thelr.: machine
came to a standstill after a flight
of a little over 16 hours at the
Zealand airdrome. '
Royal air force pilots and the
ground staff rushed from the han
gar to greet the fliers who had
nonchalantly left New York City
yesterday, barely turned around at
Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, and
then hopped over the Atlantic.
Tnko lillo to Eat
The crew of the Winnie Mae
looked nono the worse for their
long flight across the Atlantic.
They took a turn around the air
drome to stretch their legs, had a
bite to cat, Inquired as to weather
reports and, then fulfilling their
description as "young men in a
hurry" climbed into their mono
plRno and set off for Berlin.
As they stepped from their ma
chine to bo greeted cordially by
the British all-men. Post said:
"We had a right good flight. It
has been a splendid trip through
out. In truth It has been a real
Joy trip. The only difficulty we
experienced was over a period of
three or four hours during the
enrly stages of the flight when we
ran Into bad (weather. The rest of
the journey was enjoyable and tne
sea was calm. We now are well
nhend of our time and are off for
Moscow via Berlin."'
In Moscow Tomorrow
Declaring that they were out to
break all records for a flight
around the world, Post said they
were anxious to reach Moscow by
tomorrow and no time could be
WHStcd. The flight from Berlin
to Moscow Is 925 miles.
They seemed anxious to resume
their flight without delay ana
after carefully inspecting the ma
chine, the "Winnie Mae' jumped
Into It, rose Into the air and sped
southward at terrific speed.
Although first reports had indi
cated that the Winnie Mae had
landed at 1:45 p. m. It was deter
mined that the machine completed
its transatlantic crossing at 12:45
p. m. (6:45 a. m. E. 8. T.)
Sea Hop In 16 Hours
Their departure was one hour
and 20 minutes later. The airmen
thus completed the 2000 mile hop
In 16 hours and 17 minutes at a
speed of approximately 126 miles
an hour. .
The Americans were In the best
of spirits, although a little tired.
They made a good landing and
their machine appeared none the
worse for Its ocean crossing. It
needed no repairs. The filers dis
played the same eagerness to-be on
their way as they showed in New
York and Harbor Orace.

Premier Insists Catholic Ac

and Hlegal Church Held
Alone to Blame for Re
cent Violence in Country
ROME, June 24. KJP) From Icr
Mussolini took a firm otand aqalnst
the Catholic Action clubs' in the
Italian reply, delivered at tho Vat
ican today, to the recent notetrom
the holy see.
The premier Insisted, it was
learned on excellent authority,
that the dissolved clubs were anti
fascist and Illegal, nnd he saw "no
reason to renew discussions on
measures taken against the juve
nile association."
Tho -church, it was explained,
had only Itself to blame for vio
lence incited by alleged Catholic
political activity,
Problnjr Insults
The formal apology which the
pope demanded and later modified
somewhat was met In the note with
the statement that a severe inquiry
la proceeding regarding the Insults
tb the pope and -damage to church
property and in the assurances of
prosecution of the guilty there la
Implied the plea "that these oc
curences are "deplored."
The note declared that Italy still
waited to hear tho Vatican "de
plore" serious demonstrations In
Jugoslavia allegedly authorized by
church authorities there for which
Italy tiwked the Vatican several
months ago.
After these observations the note,
it was learned, accepted the holy
see's proposal for "conversations to
solve the controversy rapidly and
in a friendly manner."
Protest Addresses '
Italy renewed her protest agalnet
the pope's many addresses discuss
ing the controversy and nig cairn-,
paign ''of taking "the of fenaco out
side their proper place," by ap
pealing to world public opinion.
The government asserted again
that the clubs, held "secret meet
ings' and that their "guiding spirit
was distinctly against the fascist
regime, and ;of a seditious charac
ter." 1 .-
