tative national union cabinet today
to succeed the Averescu ministry,
which resigned yesterday. This new
ministry. while still in skeleton form.
has been described as a symptom
of real progress toward rehabilita-
tion of the country"
Well informed political quarters
comment on the fall of Premier
Averescu with Widespread feeling
of relief. The newspaper Diminea-
ia says: There is satisfaction from
the sovereign to the last citizen. :"
Other newspapers credit Averescu
with aspiring to a dictatorship.
Averescu's resignation was not un-
expected. A week ago King Ferdi-
nand signified desire for a nation
al union ministry. Averescu rendered
his resignation. but the king gave
him an opportunity to form ma
tional union ministry Failing in this
he surrendered power. and the
monarch then called Prince Stirbey.
a trusted friend OF Queen Marie. to
form a cabinet.
The tentative ministry Of Stirbey

Premier. minister Of interior. and
nd interim foreign minister and
minister of flnance-Prince Barbu
Stirbey.
Minister Of domains and industry
M. Argetoinau. ...-
Minister Of justice-Stelian Pope
ecu.

health-Nicholas Lupu.

ander Lapedatu.
Minister Of war-General Paul

Bucharest advices given out in
Vienna reported that General Avere-
sous resignation was on the demand
of King Ferdinand, saying that dur
ing cabinet meeting a representative
of the monarch appeared, notifying
the premier that the formation Of a
national government had been en-
trusted to Prince Stirbey, a brother
in-law of former Premier lionel Bra
tiano. NJ. Bratiano. who has been
reported at odds with General Avere-
scu for some time, and who is reput-
ed to be hostile to former Crown
Prince Carol, recently expressed the
opinion that neutral statesman
should preside over the new cabinet.
Political observers in Paris. upon
learning Of the resignation Of Pre-
mier Averescu. declared that Carols
chances OF regaining the Rumanian
throne, which he renowned some
time ago. seemed as hazy as ever.

vious notice leap into the plane for
It's transatlantic flight. spent tha
greater part of the day and night
at her home in Belle Harbor
Queens. where the entire Levine
clan had assembled to watch
through news bulletins the progress
of the Columbia.
| When news that the plane had
circled the Mauritania was re-
ceived. Mrs. Chamberlin's eyes
sparkled
How I wish was aboard that
ship" she said. Il can see him
leaning out waving 70 all those
people. I know he is safe now"
From an atlas she figured that
Chamberlin had gone little south
of his intended course, for some
good reason"
Clarence doesn't do things in the
air without a reason" she explain
ed. He was probably going around
a storm. Clarence knows what he
is doing" Mrs. Chamberlin has
made numerous flights with her
flying husband.
Realization of the dangers of the
flight caused her to worry, she said,
and added she would still worry a
little until he was safely on the
ground again.
But Mrs. Chamberlin doesn't ex-
pect her husband to give up danger
Gus air feats. When the suggestion
was made she laughed and said:
Not Clarence. l know Clarence.
When this is done he will do some
thing else that has risk in it"
She sent her cable to her husband
just before retiring last night.
Hail Columbia and my wonderful
boy and Mr., Levine" it read. Love
and kisses. Will Join you as soon
as possible. Vida" Mrs. Cham
berlin said she never for moment
doubted her husband would succeed.
Mrs. Levine breathed a deep sigh
Of relief when news came that the
plane had been sighted over
Plymouth. England.
Thank God for that" she said.
I'm SO happy that they're safe and
over land"
She said she would not had "let
him start" had she known her hus-
band planned to make the flight
I'm proud of him but I didn't think
it was necessary for him to take the
chance" she said. Now that he's
done it, I can breathe easier"
Then she announced she would
go to meet her husband as soon as
she received word from him that he
had landed.
Her cable to her husband was
sent in care Of American Ambassa-
dor Jacob Gould Schurman in
Berlin.
Following your flight with
prayer. love. pride and confidence"
it said Love from family.
Cable promptly. VIII Leave to

flying.
Il had done some balloon work
myself and had made parachute
drops" Ellis said. He was making
great progress In flying and wanted
to drop.
II thought he had plenty Of nerve
although he didn't have much to
say and didn't make any boasts. He
would get me talking about para
chute jumping and would question
me on every little point. He was get
ting all the information he could.
Pretty soon I learned he was 60
ing down to the Twentieth street
flying field and dropping all over
the place.
He had, 1t seemed, got all the in
formation he could from me about
parachutes and then arranged to
learn the business for himself. Soon
everyone was talking about the per-
feet manner in which he handled
himself in his drops. 1t was just
natural to him"
Lindbergh tired Of Lincoln and
finally gave up his air-taxi business
there, got into his plane and flew
back home to Little Falls, MINI. 1t
was in Little Falls that he had
dreamed OF flying during his youth
and those who have dreamed in
childhood may imagine how the day
in 1922 when Charlie Lindbergh
came flying in his own plane into
the old home town, was for him a
thrill only surpassed by his arrival
in Paris on May q.
The townspeople were immedi-
ately curious over this quiet, silent
lad and his >airship. They gathered
at its quickly built hangar to see it
and Charlie began doing an air-taxi
business at home once more. Not all
Of the townspeople would take a
chance Of riding with Charlie Lind
bergh but many Of them had their
first ride through the skies in his old
army biplane.
