Provincetown, Mass, Dec. l9 (AP)-The six men who slgnalled from the submarine S-4 late yesterday that they had survived after the vessel had sunk off Wood End were still alive early today. One of their number, Lieutenant Gra- ham Newell Fitch, tapped out on the null of the submarine a message in the Morse code which was received by the mine sweeper Falcon.
 Fitch asked if oxygen and emergency food supplies could be sent down to the survivors through the torpedo tube. The rough weather which prevented divers from going down this forenoon and the breaking away from the S-4 of the air hose through which air had been pumped into the sub marine made an immediate re- sponse to his plea impossible.
 The fact that the message had been received was not known here until word was received that the Falcon had arrived in Boston. There the news was given out briefly by Lieutenant Commander Edward Ellsbers, one Of the leaders in the rescue operations. He did not give the hour at which the message was received but said that it was some time before the Falson left the Cane.

Byrd Will
Start Soon
Said to Be Planning Round
Trip European Flight,
Short Stop at Paris

Mitchell Field, June 14.-R)-A
man close to the flying camp Of Com
mander Richari Byrd, who asked that
his identity be shielded. told the As
sociated Press today that, weather
permitting, Byrd will hop off either
tomorrow night or Thursday morn
ing for round trip European flight,
stopping in Paris only a few hours.
This man expressed the opinion,
which he said was based on personal
knowledge. that the early take off
would be made so that Charles Lind
bergh might be present to wish luck
to Byrd, just as Byrd wished him
luck when he took off. The round
trip with a brief stop off had been
decided on, he stated, because it was
believed Clarence Chamberlin and
Charles Levine intended to fly home
from Europe and that therefore a
one way flight would no longer have
any great SAVIOR Of originality.
Met by an Associated Press report
err in the Lindbergh crowd yesterday
Commander Byrd said that he was
planning to leave for Paris soon, bu:
not until after the first flush of the
Lindbergh celebration. Because he
is scheduled to receive an honorary
degree from University Wednesday
it was supposed that the flight would
be postponed until the end Of the
week but today it was said that
weather was the only thing that
could now delay the take off tomor-
row night or early Thursday morn

When George Washington went to
Boston to take command of the Col
onial forces, he was accompanied by
Philadelphia troops who carried a
flag of IL blue and white stripes.
In January, l776, Washington saw
raised over his headquarters in Cam
bridge, Mass, flag Of l3 red and
white stripes. In place Of the blue
field and the white stars, however.
were the crosses Of St. George and
st. Andrew Of England.
Had Four Predecessors
From this it can be seen that there
were in America at least four flags
with IL stripes before the Betsy
Ross flag appeared in l777. From
this, also, it can be seen that the
fact that there were IL colonies, one
for each stripe in the flag, was Pretty
largely a matter of coincidence.
1t was in May, l777, that the Con-
tinental Congress appointed George
Washington, Robert Morris and Col.
George Ross to plan IA flag for all
the colonies.
Col. Ross picked out the maker Of
the first Stars and Stripes. She was
a niece Of his by marriage, 25 years
old, a Quaker, beautiful and a widow.
She was struggling along trying to
make both ends meet by running the
upholstery shop that had been willed
to her.
1t is generally supposed that
George Washington drew the rough
sketcn for the first Stars and Stripes.
Where he got the idea for the
stripes is not hard to see. Where he
got the idea for the stars is not dcfi-
nitely known and perhaps never will
be.
Used Five-POinted Stars
1t is legend, but not history, that
suggested six-pointed
stars, because they were easier to
make, but that Mrs. Ross showed
him how easy it was to cut five
