PACIFIC FLIGHT
HIGHLY PLEASES
j. S. OFFICIALS

WASHINGTON June % H9-Tho
successful flight to Hawaii OF Lieu-
tenants Maitland and Hegenberger
stirred official Washington today to
a high pitch of enthusiasm and
prediction from Assistant Secretary
Dawson of the war department. that
the two young aviators undoubtedly
would be awarded the distinguished
flying cross. 9E.
While no specific recommendation
to that end have been formulated,
he said, department. officials feel
that the exploit warrants the deco
ration, the highest OF its kind that
can be bestowed by the government
Dawson, who is in charge OF army
aviation, also announced that Matt
land and Hegenberger would not re-
turn to the United States by air,
despite suggestions made to the de-
partment by various officers that
they be permitted to do so. Both
Secretary Davis and he are in agree
ment, he said, that the big plane
used by the fliers is needed in
Hawaii for inter-isIand flying, and
that little additional scientific data
could be obtained by a return flight.
Elated by news that the army
plane had reached its Hawaiian
destination, officials Of the war and
other departments expressed their
qualification in statements and in
messages of felicitation to the airmen
and members of their families. Matt
II Sc
visiting her parents, received first
news of the. flights successful ter
mination from the Associated Press.
One of the official comments on
the flight was that OF Assistant
Secretary McCracken of the COM
nerciaI department who said it was
mot only of utraostI Importance to
national defense but to commercial
aeronautics as we'll"
Army aviation officers were for
the most part reluctant to comment
on the reported failure OF the radio
beacon arrangement until official re-
ports and fuller details are received.
They said, however, that such a
failure only emphasized the navigat-
ing skill OF Hegenberger, who had
the navigating assignment on the
flight.
Navigation experts of the navy,
too, were loud in their praise for
Hegenberger Regardless OF whether
the fliers obtained radio compass
bearings from passing ships, they
said, flying in darkness with their
destination to be reached a few
hours after sunrise, it was impera-
tive that the navigator's work be qof
