Still exulting in the condition OF
his plane, it became necessary to
almost drag Lindbergh away from
the hangar in order that he might
keep his engagement with President
Doumergue.
After a rather embarrassing few
minutes with the president. while
accepting the high honor bestowed
on him by France, Lindbergh
strolled through the Elysee Gardens
and chatted with French officials.
When he left there was a crowd
of more than thousand waiting at
the palace gates to give him a re-
ception.
"I'm overcome with JOY" was all
that Lindbergh could say to his
admirers.

The flier returned to the Ameri-
can Embassy for lunch and later
this afternoon will attend a recep-
ton to be given him by the Aero
Club Of France.
At o'clock this evening he will
sail on Premier Poincare.
Lindbergh has accepted Ambassa-
DOR Herrick'S invitation to remain
his guest for several days.
He was still wearing borrowed
clothes today, except for the shoes
which he wore across the Atlantic.
He has accepted the offer Of the

Among Lindbergh's callers during
