Washington, July 10-Aided by a westerly wind that sometimes reached a velocity of nearly 40 miles an hour, the British dirigible R-34 tonight was .. well out over the Atlantic on her way to East Fortune. Scotland. after stay of s6 hours in America. The last mes sage from the airship,. received late today by the Navy Department, gave her position at that time as $50 miles due east of Bar Harbor. Me. and more than 1000 miles from Mineola, L. l., from which she started last midnight The dirigible, according to wireless reports received by the Navy Depart ment, throughout the day averaged more than so miles an hour for the first IS hours of the return flight and at times the big airship's speed reached between 75 and 80 miles an hour. The dirigible thus was making better time than at any period of the flight to this side of the Atlantic and if weather conditions remain favorable, naval off, ficers here believe Major G. H. Scott, commander, and members of the R-34s crew will see British shores early Sat urday.
 The first word heard from the R-3f after the big dirigible left American shores this morning was radio mes sage sent at a. m., giving the ships Long Island Direct communication was maintained with the Navy Depart ment thereafter. At 10 a. m. message said the dirigible was then making good 5S knots an hour. equivalent to about 65 land miles. An hour later the R-34 signalled that the wind was be- coming stronger and that the dirig- iblee speed had reached 80 miles an hour at times.
 MESSAGES OF THANKS
 Two messages of thanks to American officials were sent today by Major Scott One to Rear Admiral J. H. Glen non, commandant of the third naval district. which includes the Mineola field where the R-S4 landed on it's ar rival in this country, thanked the of ficers and men who assisted in moor ing the big dirigible. Another was to F. H. Bowie of the United States weather bureau and thanked him for weather reports furnished to the dirig- ible.
 A request was sent to the weather bureau late today that weather reports be sent to the R-34 regularly during the trip to England in order that the dirigible might be kept informed of favorable weather conditions along the route. Another radio message asked that all reports from vessels along the path being followed by the R-S4 be wirelessed.
 The last weather report sent to the RIA from here tonight said that a storm center over New Foundland was moving northeast and that another over Ontario was moving toward New Foundland. Strong westerly winds were predicted over the western At lantic as far east as the fiftieth me ridian and probably much farther The weather report compiled by Forecaster Bowie concluded:
 You will have strong westerly winds next A to 36 hours, with some clouds and a falling barometer. My advice is to keep well south and take advantage of westerly winds attending rapid eastward movement of disturb ance north of latitude 50. Good luck and quick trip"

LABOR SITUATION
No Material Changes in the Outlook
During Past Week

The status of affairs in the troubles
existing in several of Newark's manu-
featuring establishments has remain
ed practically the same during the
past week, neither of the interested
parties being willing to accept the
overtures OF the opposite side.
Organizer j. J. Smith makes the
following statements:
The men discharged by Superinten-
dent Skinner Of the Central Power
Co., because Of their membership in
the Engineers Union, still remain true
to their obligauors, despite the efforts
made to induce them to recant. Ar
rangements are now in progress by
which the true situation will be placed
before the general public, and the
underhand tactics and lying policy
pursued by a certain employe Of tie
company laid bare.
At establishments Of the two glass
companys no apparent progress has
been made, the officials at both places
still maintaining their anti-union at
titude. Overtures made to the union
men have utterly failed to induce
them to turn traitor to the cause in
order to receive their former jobs,
which is the bait offered.
On the credit side Of the situation
is the fact that every employer who
has signed the agreement and whose
employees are working under the new
scale has expressed his unqualified
approval Of a measure which has en-
abled him to secure competent and
efficient men, and is glad his place
has been unionized.
The situation at the Simpson foun-
dry is the same as last week. The
striking molders are firm in their de-
mands that the working condition
presented in their new agreement be
complied with, and are still out.
