GOTHAM ARRANGES
FLYERS RECEPTION
Byrd Group and ChamberIin
to Get Greeting Rivaling
Lindbergh Salute.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July S.-A reception
rivaling that extended to Col. Charles
A. Lindbergh awaits the five Amer
lean transatlantic flyers now in
France.
Grover A. Whalen, chairman of the
mayors reception committee, said
definite announcement of sailing plans
of Comdr. Byrd. Acosta, Neville, Bal
chen and Chamberlin only was needed
to set in action the welcome plans.
The America crew and Chamberlin
have tentatively set their departure
from Europe for July IL aboard the
Leviathan, due here the 18th. IL the
five aviators returned together, it was
said, a huge joint reception would be
staged for them
I'm any event." Mr.. Whalen said,
whether they come together or sepa-
rately. New York will accord them a
reception that BELTS their magnificent
achievements"
A fleet of airplanes has been sug-
gested to greet the liner at Quarantine
and escort the airmen to the Battery,
from where the celebrity route over
the lower Broadway Canyon would be
followed. The question of city med
ais and other honors for the flyers
has not yet been decided.

Wilbur Discusses
Suggested Flight
Around Equator

By the Associated Press.
The idea of flight around the
equatorial girdle of the globe by
naval aviators, recently advanced
by Secretary Wilbur, originated
two years ago in the Bureau of
Naval Aeronautics, he disclosed
yesterday.
At the same time, Mr.. Wilbur
made it plain that he had meant
to imply no objection to Comdr.
Byrd's proposed South Polar flight
when he suggested last week that
the equatorial flight would be of
more value.
While nothing definite regarding
such a fight has been discussed
with the bureau, which also is un-
prepared at this time to go into
details, Mr.. Wilbur believes that
an air expedition around the
equator would be practicable with
the long cruising planes now avail
able and would be of immense
value from a scientific standpoint.

Smiths plane has been taken to Con.
cord air mail flying field. some 20 miles
from the Oakland municipal airport,
where the Army flyers took off on
their successful Honolulu hop. Smith
himself was sent to a mountain resort

over ownership of the plane.

TAXI DRIVER ASSAULTED
AND ROBBED OF HIS CAB
Report by Colored Man in Hospital
With Face and Body Slashed
and Arm Broken.

Eighty stitches were required to
close wounds in the face. arms and
body of George p. Harley. colored, 21
years old, taxicab driver of 2609
Wade road southeast when he reached
Casualty Hospital LIST night shortly
after o'clock. His right arm also
was broken.
Harley explained to the police that
he received a call from Fourth and b
streets southeast shortly before
o'clock, and that he drove a young
man and woman companion to Brad
bury Heights, Md, where, he report
ed, he was attacked and his taxi cab
taken.
Reaching the destination, he stated,
he was attacked by a third person
who suddenly appeared on the scene.
was done by the man whom he had
driven there in his taxi, and who later
took part in the fight.
When his taXicab was taken Harley
appealed for help and was driven to
the hospital by Edward Sampson of
Bradbury Heights.
Police of the eleventh precinct later
learned that the attack was made in
Maryland. The identity of the man
who died the slashing. is known, ac-
cording to the police.

publican, of PENNSYLVANIA.
TO break the tie Chairman Zihlman
voted in favor of the report Repre-
sentative Gibson, Republican, of Yer
mont said later that he would oppose
the bill. =
There was considerable discussion
on the insurance code, the argument
being made under the leadership of
Chairman Zihlman that an effort is be-
ing made to avoid taxation. This re-
suited in considerable technical dis
cussion, Mr.. Zihlman arguing that the
present rate was intended to apply on
gross receipts, whereas it is inter
preted in administration as applying
on net receipts.
District Insurance Commissioner
Baldwin and representatives Of num-
Der of insurance interests engaged in
the discussion. Representatives Glib
son and Underhill insisted that there
was scant chance for this legislation
passing at this session of Congress.
Mr.. Underhill said it should be taken
up early in the next Congress and
disposed of.
he c&DtdlftGu the GAilduSLlNO STUDY
of the question made by a subcOm-
mittee of which he was chairman
year ago when the best minds of
the country were engaged in draft
ing the proposed code. He charged
that because of personal pique on
the part of one member this legis
lation had been allowed to die.
Representative Hammer declared
that it would be of great benefit to
the city as a whole. Representa-
tive Houston emphasized that the
work of the Gibson subcommittee
has shown that there is certainly a
need for an insurance code in the
District.
Commissioner Baldwin said that
the Underhill bill is a good one and
should be passed. but that If the full
code is not acted upon the separate
bill in regard to life insurance, which
Is one section of the code in which
all interests are agreed, should not
be precluded from being passed.
