NEW YORK, Aug. 15. (P)-Ger- many's first bid for transatlantic aerial honors failed when the metal monoplane Brennan, which left Dessau at 620 Sunday night, returned to the airdome and landed at 4.2O yesterday afternoon The plane was forced back by stormy conditions over the Allan tic. It's sister ship, the Europa, sec ond in the aerial argosy of Junkers planes, had already landed, being forced to turn about on account of engine trouble. In the dense fog over the North Sea the Europa, in landing at Brennan last night was badly dam aged but Herman Koehl and Freder- ich Loose brought their ship, the Bre- man, down unharmed on the Dessau Airfield. After an examination of the Europa experts said 1t was so badly damaged as to preclude all hope of continuing the transatlantic flight and said it would take weeks to repair the machine.
