Vessels Will Patro! Route

According to the latest tentative plans the flight along the bleak, barren and desolate coast of Green land will be guarded by vessels of the United States navy lying off shore during the passage of the planes
 The distance between Icriard and Evigtut, Greenland, is 610 miles, and owing to high mountains, it is neces- saary for the planes to fly down the eastern coast of Greenland, around Cape Farewell and up the west coast to Ivigtut. At Ivigtut the Danish gov lernment has placed another vessel to assist the Americans.
 First Stop at Indian Harbor
 From Ivigtut to Indian HarbOr, Labrador, the first stop to be made, is 572 miles, across Davis Straits. The cruiser Richmond and her consorts will be joined by the cruiser Milwau- kee The flight along the coasts of L-dDl lAuOl, 1NCN iOuLIuletlAC dIu 4NOF c Scotia to Boston will be guarded by at least nine naval vessels. The route from Iceland 10 lVigtut follows roughly the route taken by Eric the Red on his voyage of dis covery centuries ago when the conti nent of Greenland was discovered The voyage across Davis Straits from Greenland to the coast of Labrador should be attended by beautiful, clea, weather prevalent at this time oi year.
