The vessel was to make q com.

Considerable stir was created
during the night when C. H. Har.
vey, agent Of the Canadian marine
department, reported that radio
stations at Halifax had picked up
a message indicating Old Glory had
been found and that the govern.
ment was ordering ships to her
rescue.
The message read: ''The airplane
Old Glory was reported sighted
1855 north, 1888 west, approx
nately 400 miles east.north-east of
st. Johns. All Canadian vessels in
vicinity requested to render every
assistance possible"
The message was Immediately
construed in many quarters as
meaning that Old Glory had been
found, was apparently safe, and
that rescue measures were under
way, but the Navy department at
Ottawa, when queried, replied that
the message had been broadcast at
the request of. the United States
Embassy merely as an authorize
ton to Canadian masters to look
/ for the lost Hiers.
The positions given In the mes
sage were those where Old Glory
was believed to have plunged into
the ocean.
Meanwhile the steamship Kyle,
chartered by the New York Mirror.
Of which Philip Payne, one Of the
planes crew, was managing editor,
has set out with the specific mis-.
sion Of searching over Old Glory's
course.
Other transatlantic ships are
continuing their lookout for the
Inflated plane or its crew, but are
not deviating from the regular
travel lanes.
