HOPE FOR REDFERN
GAINS NEW IMPETUS
Telegraph Operator Reports
Seeing Machine Over VIII
Iage of Macarieto.
BY the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press.
| BRUNSWICK, Ga. August 81
| The slender thread of hope that has
! sustained watchers here in the belief
| that Paul Redfern is safe was
| Strengthened today. with partial con.
| ffrmation of reports that an airplane
| had been sighted last Saturday over
| the Orinoco River Delta, in Venezuela.
some distance off the route of his
! fight to BRAZIL.
The first eport received from
Caracas Monday that natives had
sighted a plane flying southeasterly
over the Orinoco Delta was sultan
tiated to some extent by another re-
port from the government telegraph
operator at Cuidad Bolibar that a
plane had been seen flying over the
Village of Macarieto the same after
noon.
Both reports placed the time of
sighting the plane at about o'clock.
in which case Redfern's gasoline
supply, estimated to last not more
than IS hours, would have been nearly
exhausted and he would have been
forced to land within a short time.
At o'clock Saturday afternoon he
would have been in the air 50 hours.
The intrepid aviator took, off from
Glynn Isle Beach here at 1916 pm.
Thursday, and since his big green and
gold monoplane faded against the hori-
ION five minutes later no definite word
has been had from him. More than
five days have elapsed, and in addl-
ton to the Caracas reports, only an
unconfirmed report from an unnamed
vessel that he was sighted late Thurs
day 800 niles off the Bahamas has
been received.
Wife Retains Hope.
Mrs. Redfern, pretty young wife,
continues to maintain that her hus-
band will be found safe. She declared
she believed her husband had reached
South America before being forced
down.
The Brazilian government has
pointed out that if Redfern has been
forced down in the interior, weeks
may pass before he can make his way
out or send word.
officials of Brazil also declared that
if the intrepid flyers plane was
sighted over the Orinoco, he might
have been making for Mansoa. nearest
Brazilian point, from where the plane
was sighted and also the safest, as the
route would be over the Negro Valley
in which there is considerable open
country with ranches not infrequent.
Here too, however, if the aviator
landed. it might be weeks before he
reached means of communication with
the outside world, as travel along the
river, practically the only route to
the coast, is slow.
u. s. Aids i'm Search.
Meantime, United States consular
agents in British and Dutch Guiana
and Brazil have been instructed by the
State Department to press the search
for the missing flyer.
Friends here are confident that the
flyer will eventually be found safe, as
he was fully prepared for the emer.
gency of forced landing on sea or
in the jungle. On leaving he said
not to give him up for six months
if they did not hear from him.

Minchin Imperial Pilot.

Lieut. Col Minchin is an Imperial
Always pilot, navigating planes be-
tween London and Paris. He was in
the air service before and throughout
the war, and continued with the Royal
Air Force until 1920.
Hamilton said recently that he eX-
pected to do most of the plotting on
the long flight across the Atlantic, but
the plane is equipped with dual con-
troll so that the flyers may take shifts.

friends. announced recently that they

vine.
For some time there had been
rumors that a woman would accom-
pany Capt. Hamilton, and on August
"a the Evening News of London
learned that it was Princess Lowen-
stein Wertheim.
Princess 81 Years Old.
The princess, who is 81 years of
age, has held a flying license for 10
years, and has flown with Capt. Hamil-
ton a number of times, being a passen-
ger when he flew in the 1928 Kings
Cup race. She is sister Of the Earl
of Marlborough and usually flys under
her maiden name, Lady Anne Savile.
She became a German subject when
she married Prince Ludwig Lowen-
stein Wertheim in 1897, but regained
her British nationality in 1918.
Two years ago she and Capt. Hamil-
ton attempted London-to-Paris flight.
Their plane was not seen after it
passed Folkestone. A channel search
was begun. After an all-night search
the plane was found near Pontoise,
France, forced down by engine
trouble.
In 1922 the princess rode as pas
senger in her own plane in a cup race
from Croydon to Edinburgh, Scotland.
The London Evening Star, telling
of the death of her husband in the
Philippines in 1899, says he was killed
while fighting against American forces
there.

FIRE HOUSE
ENLARGEMENT

City Commission To
Make Room for New
Equipment; Mayor
Cole Is Back

Tentative plans for the enlarge
ment of the city fire house were dis
cussed at the regular bi-monthly
meeting Of the city commissioners
Friday morning.
The plans call for the doing away
with several Of the stalls occupied by
chilli stands at the south end Of the
market plaza and the removal Of
several vegetable stalls located next
to the fire station. This would leave
plenty Of room for enlargement Of
the fire station TO accommodate the
new hook and ladder truck ordered
for delivery about the first Of No
vember.
No definite action was taken, other
than to instruct Fire Chief Roy
Weller to look into the proposition
and ascertain the approximate cost
who brought up the discussion, esti-
mated that the changes could be
made for about $500.

the city Thursday from n long vaca-
and presided.
A mass of routine business faced
the commissioners when they went
into session at 10 o'clock and the
business was not disposed of until

ing of the two new fire bumpers,
which were unloaded during the
morning, were discussed, and the
commissioners inspected the equip
ment as it sat in front of the city
hall.
In addition to approving the month
" bills, the board authorized an ad-
vertisement for bids for improve
ments on Thirteenth street and Lin

effort to obtain n permanent record
Of many Of the old graves.
II was pointed out by Commission
er Burt E. Hinkley that many of the
old graves have disappeared leaving
son buried, and as the law requires
a permanent record kept of such mat
ters, an attempt to make one was
deemed advisable.
