Bcrlin-New York Air Route


Announcement that the government
rigid airship in Germany was followed
by the disclosure here yesterday that
two German aircraft engineers visited
this country several months ago to
study possibilities OF fast Zcpnelin
service between Germany and New York
and Chicago, according to The Associ-
ated Press.
The engineers were said to represent
the Zeppelin Airship Building Com
pany, Of Friedrichshaven, and gave
their names as Harry Vissering and f..
A. Lehman. They were in frequent
conference with Weather Bureau OFF
cials here and in other cities. While
their movements at that time were
shrouded in secrecy, it is learned that
they discussed plans for passenger
ply between Germany and America.
For several weeks the air route be-
tween here and Chicago was the scene
Of repeated tests with kite balloons
which carried into The upper atmos-
phere delicate recording instruments.
Weather Bureau records for forty
years were examined, and charts show
ing average direction and velocity of
winds were studied.
From one of the New York men with
whom they talked it is learned that
the German engineers concluded posi-
lively that fast Zeppelin service be-
tween Germany and this country was
feasible. They pointed out that many
OF their machines during the war had
made far longer and more hazardous
trips.
Before they sailed for home it was
understood they had visited Washing
ton and there consulted with govern
ment officials concerning the proposed
service.

LONDON, Dec. 17.--Premier LLOYD
Georges real object in conferences he
will have with Premier BRAND Of
France, beginning at IL o'clock Mon
day morning, is said to be to tie up
The German rcparations issue with the
whole question of Europe's solvcncy.
This move would take the German debt
out of the realm of Anglo Trench dis
cussion and make it question of world
concern.
According to "The Outlook" a weekly
periodical, Lloyd George will present
to the French Premier four propo-
sitions:
G) Drastic reductions in the gross
amount of ssthe German war bill with
commensurate wiping out Of the AL
lied Indebtedness to Great Britain.
(2) The acceptance of German ma
terials by the Allies in lieu Of cash.
(3) The abolition of Continental, and
especially German, customs barriers.
"a Sharp reduction. Of the Allied
armies on the Rhine with view to
their early withdrawal.
In the absence of any official indica-
tion Of the nature of the conversations
to be held, this representation seems
on the face of it to be fair statement
of the British Cabinets position. The
third and fourth proposals are not ex-
pected to be found attractive by the
French, but the abolition of customs
barriers is, to the Briton's mind, the
quickest way Of stimulating trade and
reducing taxes.
