BERTAUD WILL
NOT MAKE TRIP
lie VINE SAYS
Successor Already Selected,
But His Identity Is Be-
ing Kept a Secret
CONTRADICTs BERTAUD
Flyer Announced After Long
Conference That He Would
Go With Chamberlin

New York, May 19.-{R-Lloyd
Dcrtaud definitely will not make the
Paris flight in the Bellanca mono
plane with Clarence Chamberlin, and
his successor is already selected,
Charles A. Levine, head of the COM
pany backing the flight, told the
Associated Press this afternoon.
Levine's announcement followed
tardily on an almost night long con-
ference at the end Of which Bertaud
had said that all difficulties had
been ironed out and that he would
60 on the flight as navigator as
originally planned.
Asked for Statement
Levine made no statement ut the
time but when reports gained circu-
lation that the situation was not
quite as Bertaud believed it to be, he
was asked to state definitely what
the results Of the conference were.
"Bertaud is not going," he replied.
"That is definite. His successor has
been selected but his identity will
not be revealed until the plane is
ready to hop off,"
Bertaud had said injunction pro-
cccdings to prevent the Columbia from
starting on its trip without him
would be withdrawn. The navigator
fclA satisfied, he said, that he would
be with Clarence ID. Chamberlin when
the craft hops off.
A temporary injunction returnable
tomorrow was obtained by Bertaud
yesterday.
Weather Still Stormy
I Adverse weather reports further
delayed the Bellanca flight. Stormy
areas between here and the New
Foundland coast also held to earth

ports, was clear but favorable skies
the entire extent of the route prob
ably would not appear before to-
morrow morning. Lindbergh is ready
to depart.
Levine said that Frank Tichenor
publisher Of an airplane magazine,
went to his house early today, taking
with him Bertaud and G. NJ. Bellanca,
designer Of the plane. He identified
Bertaud in his statement as "former-
~ navigator of the plane Columbia. y
Is Definitely Out
"Tichenor came as peacemaker and
Bellanca was neutral" he said.
"Bertaud repudiated statements at
tributed to him in the press and at
tempted to conciliate me, but told
him he was definitely out.
''He offered to withdraw the in
junction suit he started against me
if would let him 60 but rejected
his offer"
Asked why he had let Bertaud's s
statement that all difficulties had
been disposed of stand for eight
hours before denying it, Levine said
through representative that he was
not interested in any conclusions the
public might draw from such action
on his part. He said that he was not
seeking publicity and only made a
statement at this time because he had
been asked for it.

Impress of Old Spain
Left in South America

While Cartagena, Colombia, is a
most engrossing architectural ruin, a
legacy of the old Spanish cOnquis-
tadores, and fine example of an an
cient Spanish town, passengers en-
route to the west coast of the United
States find that it is also energetical-
ly modern.
The Spaniards, when they embarked
on their expeditions to the interior
Of Colombia, had as a goad behind
their efforts, the Indian story of a
marvellous golden man, Ell Dorado, and
saw him in their dreams as they
hacked their way through the almost
impossible jungles. Although the
Spaniards never located their golden
quarry and returned to the coast to
found cities, they did succeed in wrest-
ing from the bosoms Of the hills vast
amount Of golden metal which gave to
the country the name of the man they
had been seeking, Ell Dorado. And in
the cities they founded they left an
indelible impress of old Spain.

When Philip of Spain
Needed Gods Command

We all know that there is q right
way and a wrong way to interpret the
words of another. l know no better
Illustration than that brought to bear
upon Philip, II Of Spain in the Six
teenth century to prevent him from
supporting the efforts of certain Span
ish promoters to dig q canal across
the isthmus Of Panama, William N.
Bringance tells us, in the Independent.
This ambitious project met with Ill
favor from certain Spanish merchants
who feared that a canal would de-
stroy their cherished monopoly upon
Spanish colonial trade. SO, knowing
that good King Philip was a devout
Christian, they adduced Biblical proof
which satisfied him that the construc-
ton of such canal would be in vio-
lation Of the direct command of God
He accepted their proof, issued an
edict and put an end to the sacrile-
gious canal-building plans of his fol-
lowers.
You may well ask what was the
amazing proof submitted to Philip
which led him to believe that the Al
mighty forbade such an apparently ra-
tlonal project as a mere canal. The
answer may be surprising. The COM
mand Of God was found In that we'll
known Biblical verse, which Philip
was told applied to continents as we'll
as man: What God hath joined to-
gether let not man put asunder."
