LEVINE PREDICTS
AIR LINE IN YEAR
Outlines TWo-Way Freight
Service From New York
to the Continent.

by tn6 ASsUCldteu ETees'
BERLIN. June 11.-A regular two
way transatlantic aerial freight serv-
ice, connecting New York with all con-
tinentel points. will in the opinion of
Charles A. Levine. be in operation
within q year.
At the conclusion of various talks
with officials of the German Aerial
League, Mr.. Levine announced to-
night that he would return to Berlin
after his trips to Warsaw and other
places, to perfect plans.
AS these plans stand at present.
they provide for the crossing of the
Atlantic in two hops-from New York
to Iceland and the continent in the
Summer. and from New York to the
Azores and the continent in the Win
ter. with q similar arrangement on the
east.to.west flights. The European
terminal has not yet been selected.
Across in 40 Hours.
Mr. Levine proposes using multi
motored machines with a cruising
range of $500 miles for the ocean
crossing, capable of carrying 1000
pounds "pay load" which. by relays,
should cover the distance across in
40 hours.
1--WE might use .Zeppelins," he added.
The desire of the air service pro-
moter Is to have an operating COM
pany, international in scope. like the
Wagon Lifts Co. international Sleep
ing Car Coz with an international di.

know what the American corporation
will be named: anyway, we will not
operate westward beyond New York.
No Passengers at First.
1--WE plan to link up our transatlan-
tic line with the Lufthansa and other
air services all over Europe" he went
on. I'VE won't plan to carry passen'
gers for the first year or so, as freight
pays better, The question of carrying
mails will have to be worked out later
in accord with the governments.
"Pilots?--we will get plenty of can

ATLANTIC AIR MAIL |
CONTRACT IS MADE.
French Line to Cover 6,100
of $500 Miles to Buenos
Aires by Plane.


PARIS. June 1.-THE first business
deal looking toward regular transat.
lantic air service was announced here
today-at the very time that Charles
A. Lindbergh, the prophet of practical
overseas air navigation, was arriving
home to receive the homage of his
countrymen.
A cableSram to the Latecoere French
Air Line this afternoon confirmed the
ratification by the President of Ar
gentina of a contract by which the
French company agrees to reduce
from Il to 9h days the delivery of
mail between France and Argentina
first by combined air and water
route and eventually by the air route
exclusively.
Orders were at once placed for ma.
terial to install aerodromes on the
Cape Verd Archipelago. off the coast
of Africa, on the island of Fernando
do Noronha off the coast of South
America and at Pernambuco. the chief
port of call for the air expeditions
which have flown from Africa to
South America in the past few months.
6,lOO Miles by Air.
OF the $500 miles to be covered
but 400 will be covered by air for the
present, and the rest will be by fast
boats.
Regular airplanes will carry the
mail from Paris to Dakar, Senegal.
There it will be transferred to a sea.
plane. which will take it to st. Louis,
Senegal. A fast steamer will pick it
up, touch at Cape Verde Islands and
then cross to Fernando do Noronha,
which is about 1875 miles off the coast
Of South America. At Fernando an
other seaplanes will take it to Pernam-
buco, where a regular airplane will
complete the haul from Pernambuco
to Buenos Aires.
Although the present service. which
will start before the end of the year.
calls for the use of fast steamers on
the transoceanic stretch, it is hoped
that before the end of another year
planes will carry the mail the entire
distance between Paris and Buenos
Aires. The hop from Cape Verde to
Fernando do Noronha has been made
several times by aviators, particularly
during the past few months. but is
still the most difficult stage of the
journey between the two hemispheres.
Seen AS Good Augury.
at is a good augury that this con-
tract was confirmed just as the worlds
air hero, Lindbergh. is getting back
home from his great air fight" said
Pierre Latecoere. 1T is not yet a full
realization of the hope of the pilot of
the Spirit of st. Louis but it is a
tangible expression Of confidence that
his dream is going to come true"
Latecoere, the founder of the COM
pany, started in 1919 with a limited
service between Toulouse and Algeria
and Morocco. Last year his company
carried SAG passengers and 100 tons

CARBURETOR MAY
DELAY COLUMBIA
Defect Reduces Probability
of Flight to Munich Planned
for Today.
By the Associated Press.

BERLIN, June 1.-THE contem-
plated flight of Clarence Chamberlin
and Charles Levine to Munich may
be delayed owing to defective car
buretor. When Chamberlin went to
Tempelhoefer Field this afternoon and
began tinkering with the machine he
discovered that one of the three car
buretors was not functioning. De-
spite strenuous efforts, this vital part
of the machine has not yet been re.
paired, and thus the chances of to-
norrow's flight are greatly reduced.
Notwithstanding the tension of the
Russo-Polish situation, Mr.. Levine an
nounces that he and Chamberln are
sticking to their original plan to go
to Warsaw after their visit to Prague
and they may also visit Danzig. They
have been invited by the Swiss gov.
eminent to go to Zurich and Bern,
but he disposed of the Budapest pos.
sibility by saying that only official
government invitations would be &C.
cepted.
Both flyers have been made hon.
orary members of the Lufthansa, the
German aerial league, and wore the
uniform of that organization when
they went to dine as guests of the
German aviators.
