BYRD TO START HOME
 PROBABLY ON JULY I2
Today He and Companions Are Guests of French
 AyiatOrs

Paris, July 5 tP> - Commander Richard E. Byrd is likely to leave for home on the steamer Levathan, sail ing July 12. although the date of his departure has not yet been definite ly fixed. He and his transatlantic flight companions have decided to leave Paris Saturday and spend it resort.
 Byrd, Acosta and Balchen took look the flying field where they intended to land on their flight from the United States but which they wero unable to find ill the storm and murl of last Thursday night.
 All the pursuit planes of the S4th regiment of French aviation were lined up for their inspection upon their arrival After looking over the planes they were conducted to the officers mess where they par took of the "wine of honor" as the guests of Colonel Manchetti, com mandins the 34th regiment. Among the many officers present were three generals, Hergault. inspector of avia- ton; Huet and Pujo.
 Overhead, two military planes per formed stunts in the hot sun. One of the aerial acrobats was Sergeant Detroiyec, who accompanied Lind bergh on his stunting party one morning, few days after the ar rival of the Spirit of St. Louis," in France.
 Shortly before 12:So, they left the field for the ministry of marine where the crew of the America were guests at a luncheon.
 There were 32 guests at the lunch con including Minister of Public Works Bokanowslli, Minister of Jus tice Barthou and most of the high civil and military officials in charge of aviation in France.
 Only small crowd stood outside the gates of the ministry. It was much too hot to loiter anywhere in Paris today except indoors or at caf well shaded from the sun.
 From the ministry, the fliers went to illc olLlNc oL tllS lLS" SPopNi U III transigeant, where again there was "wipe of honor" to drink and words of praise to hear, this time from Leon Bailby. the publisher.
 Washington, July , P'-The wholesale awarding of medals which marked the return of Lindbergh. probably will be dispensed with on the e-coming of Commander Byrd because he already has most of the important aeronautical research and geographical honors.
 Secretary Wilbur will recommend the distinguished flying cross for the commander this being one of the awards he failed to receive for fly ing across the North Pole. At that time the o.oss had not been author ized by congress.
 Byrd now holds the congressional medal of honor, the Husband medal given through the National Geogra- phic society for exploration, and many other medals and citations.
 So far there has been no concert ed movement here to stage for the crew of the America any such dem onstration as that given for Lind bergh. although the Byrd reception here is expected to be an enthusi- astic one, especially in naval circles.
 Naval officials are awaiting with great interest the report of his flight which Byrd has promised to pre-
