Wright today broke his traditional

he paid a glowing tribute to Capt.
Charles Lindbergh. He predicted

The man "who taught the world
to fly seldom discusses aviation.
He is fearful of being rnisauoted.
But his conservatism was forgotten
in the pleasure he felt over mans
latest victory in the air.

Wright believes. DEVELOPMENT of

mercial feasibility.
When Lindbergh took off Mr..
Wright believed his chances OF sue.
cess were slim. He kept in constant
contact with the progress Of the
Tight almost hourly, chiefly by call
ing the newspaper offices.
Beyond Expectation
The flight Is beyond all expecta-
tion," he said slowly. ut Just goes
to show that everything that has
useful purpose can be done and is
worth working for.
Back in 1911 we had 1t all figured
out what proportions OF weight
could be carried with certain types
of planes and several fliers figured
out how they might cross the At.
lantic.
But it couldn't be done in those
days, and we hardly dared dream
that some day 1t might be accom-
plished. although, personally, / be.
lieved the day would be here when
such a flight might be made"
Lindbergh, he said, is a fellow
with the craving to do this unusual
thing. and the courage to try it all
by himself.
II don't know what win be the
next big thing to tackle in the. avia.
ton line. 1t will have to be some
thing big to get ahead of this dam
gerous feat.
Lindbergh used several aerial de.
vices developed and tested at Nc.
Cook Field when he bored through
to Paris and showed the world it
could be done.
Had New Devices
The propeller was developed here
six months ago.
It is of aluminium alloy blades,
fitted into steel hub in such a
way that the pitch" may be regu.
lated or modified on the ground as
compromise between the take off
and fuel economy in the air, a point
which McCook Field officials
stressed as being of great com.
mercial and military value.
Another McCook Field device car.
ried by Lindbergh was the ground
induction compass, the turn and
banking indicator, and drift meter.
These are for the purpose of keep
ing an aviator on his true course
regardless of fog, rain. clouds, alti.
tude and wind velocity.

fitting welcome for Capt. Lindbergh
The Evening Star arranged to cooper
ate by receiving contributions for the
committee.
The National Capital is to have tn
honor of being the first city to gre,
this gallant young American when
returns to his native soil, and Wa"
ingtonians who wish to help make t
homecoming recepting n success IN"
send contribution to the cashier of Til
Star, who will forward them to Rober,
V. Fleming. president of Riggs Na-
tional Bank. who is treasurer of the
committee.
f. c.. Graham, chairman Of the
finance committee, declared that il
was the intention of the committee to
give every citizen of the District an
opportunity to assist in the celebra-
tion through contributions in any size
to- the local fund.
There is not a single Washing;
tonian who will not readily grasp this
opportunity as a means Of expressing
their pride in the young hero who is
coming to this city to receive the
first tributes from his fellow country
men. This celebration should be one
of which Washington will not be
ashamed and | am sure that every
one will feel honored to assist toward
this end" said MIR. Graham.
