and thence down the Harlem and
East Rivers and the bay to Miller
Field, Staten Island. New YOrk's six
million people will have a chance to

parade or 8 miles long.
This latest addition to the recep-
ton plans was announced by Capt.

of the New York National Guard,
who is to be grand marshal of the
land parade of 10000 troops from

designated Maj. George A. Vaughn

No such air spectacle as that con-
templated has ever been staged in
this vicinity. Army and Navy planes

When the Columbia swooped to
land, thousands at the airport cafe
cleared the tables of cups and linen
and then mounted them as vantage

The greatest enthusiasm prevailed,
girls waving handkerchiefs and throw

American airs when Chamberlin and

Ambassador Schurman walked out
on the landing field, where he greeted
the flyers and escorted them to the
official reception stand, where both
were formally greeted.
Huge laurel wreaths were placed on

Deluged With Clothing.

Both men were deluged today with
gifts of clothing from local merchants
and textile manufacturers, and had
the embarrassment of choosing among
any number of neckties and shirts
awaiting them when they arose
shortly after o'clock.
Much obliged for the ties" said
Levine, but I've already got a tie
Chamberlin slipped his thin torso
into a readymade white shirt and was
surprised to find it an excellent fit in
view of what he had heard of the
ampleness of German garments.
Both ate a good breakfast with
apparent relish. Their table fairly
groaned under the food set forth for
their delectation. 1t was also massed
with flowers.
While they breakfasted a crowd
began to form in front of the hotel
and stood it's ground despite the rain.
Has Not Computed Distance.
Clarence Chamberlin has been too
busy since his arrival here to figure
out the distance covered by the
Columbia, he said today. but esti-
mates that the flight from Roosevelt
Field to Eisleben and then to klinge,
near here, totaled 4, 400 miles.
German Air League experts believe
he covered 1900 kilometers or a frac-
ton over 4,722 miles. on the basis of
the route taken after passing the
Irish coast.
Until the figures are definitely con.
firmed, Chamberlin will not lay claim
to having exceeded Col. Lindbergh' S
flight in point Of distance covered.

is, however, mention of man named
"Voiov," who with two others was
appointed by the Ural Soviet to con-
duct the transfer of the royal family
from their prison in Tobolsk to Eka-
terinburg, where the executions sub
sequently took place. After this
transfer Of the prisoners, mention Of
"Voiov" ceases.
The Evening News says that Voy-
koff was president of the provincial
Soviet executive at Ekaterinburg in
1919, whereas the Cars execution
took place in 1918.
The bolshevist version of the exc
cution placed responsibility for it on
the Ural Soviet, when Ekaterinburg
in 1913 was being threatened from the
south by counter-revolutioniSt The
Ural Soviet claimed that plots were
in progress to turn the Car and his
family over to the counter-revOlu-
tionists and that the executions con-
seQuently were necessary.
Another Version Given
Another version by Nicholas Soko-
loft, former Russian judge, placed re-
sponsibility on the Moscow govern
ment itself. This latter version says
that the president of the central eXecu-
tive committee, Jacob Sverdloff, direct
ed the executions. giving the neces-
sary orders to Shaia Golostchokin, ru-

CRASH PROBE SECRET
Guard Officials Not to Make
Report Public.

Findings of the Indiana National
Guard committee investigating the
air crash at Stout-Cox field in
which Ralph. A. Gordon, 18th OBJ
servation Squadron mechanic, and
Mrs. Vivian jackson, 1044 Reisner
ST., were killed recently, are being
kept secret.
Adjt. Gen. William H. Kershner
said the report probably would not
be made public unless ordered so by
Governor Jackson.
Kershner expects to turn the re-
port over to Jackson Monday.
The report is expected to absolve
airport officials and place re-
sponsibility for the tragedy upon
Gordon. He had no right to pilot
the Government plane and violated
rules by taking woman passenger
into the air, Kershner said. r
The fact that the plane was
eleven years Old and one of the five
at the airport ordered burned by
the Government, Sept. 1, is not a
vital factor, Kershner said.

Av|ATORS FACE |
PER|L0US FEAT.
Globe Filters Must Pick Tiny
Speck in Sea to Land. /

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-Tha
most difficult aviation feat ever att
tempted faces the two round-the~
world fliers, Schlee and Brock, in
their flight across the Pacific from
Toxic via Midway Islands and
Hawaiian Islands to San F'ranciscos
according to survey by Naval ex-
perts.
Acting Secretary of Navy Warner
advised against this 2,500-mile
Toxic Midway hop unless radio
navigation Is used. According td
reports, the aviators are planning
to use radio compass, picking up
the radio station on Midway Islands
to guide them.
Even with radio aid, Warner saids
perfect navigation will be necessary
to find" the tiny isles, especially
after a 2,500-mile flight. Compared
with this feat, finding the Hawaiian
Islands from San Francisco, con-
sidered quite a navigation accorn-
plishment, is easy.
The aviators will be driving for
a clump of coral reef and sand,
about a mile and a half long. They
plan to land on Sand Island.
Whereas aviators going to the
Hawaiian Islands have a series OF
high peaks slandmarks, the Mid
way Islands rise only forty-three
feet above the sea.
Difficult as it will be to find the
tiny spot, this is the only way the
trip can be made by a land plane.
as there are no landing fields on
Wake Island, Guam or any Of the
South Sea Islands.
