MINEOLA, n. Y, July Cen.
Maitland and Maj. Scott, speaking at
the luncheon rendered to the crew of
the R-34 by the Americans yesterday,
declared the principal object of the
fight was qualification of the bonds
of friendship between the United
States and Great Britain and demon
stration of the commercial possibili-
ties of lighter-than-ai craft.
Cen Maitland predicted that with
in a few years dirigibles five times
as big as the RIA, with lifting ca
pacity of 200 tons, would not only
cross the Atlantic, but would unite
countries separated by the Pacific
ocean and Mediterranean sea.
Il venture TO predict" he said
that before many years have passed
we will have regular airship service
across the Atlantic. The ships of the
future will not be like the R-34
which, although a fine ship, is not big
enough for transatlantic commercial
traffic"

congratulations upon her wonderful

Discovery of Two "Stowaways."

1t was not until Maj. Scott had

American Army and Navy officers that
it became known that the giant diri
gible carried two stowaways-not only
the cat that won entry in the ships

I've left England with the definite in

the exception of brief period at the

Lieut.. Commander Lansdowne, guest
of the British navy on the R-34, said
that he had acquired considerable
data of value on lighter-than-air fly

paid high tribute to Maj Scott, whom
he termed the best airship pilot in

Wireless Gets Good Bearings.
Lieut.. Durant, wireless officer, said
that with his wireless direction finder,
with a range of 300 miles, he got good
bearings on all Canadian wireless
compass stations.
We had a main transmission set

phone with a 10O-mile radius" he
said. I'VE also had an auxiliary con-
tinuous wave set and an emergency
spark set. All these sets functloned
perfectly during the voyage.

Up to the time we passed NeWfound-
land we were in direct constant COM
munication with C1ifden. Ireland. We
were in touch with the British air
ministry every two hours. We had

had been called to attend to Gen.
Maitland. Expecting to encounter ex-
treme cold in the upper attitudes, the
general had worn f1eece-lined rubbers,
which. with the heat, reopened a
wound in one foot. The general
