had no funnel so we borrowed a
coffee pot and poured it into that
from the cans and then into our tank.
BY now, we were surrounded by be-
tween so and 100 men and women.
They refused to believe that we had
just flown from New York. They
could see that Chamberlin was some
sort OF foreigner, but they suspected
Levine of not having come from so
very far away. because he under
stood and spoke German.
Our map did not show any of the
villages near which we had landed.
nobody succeeded in explaining to us
our exact location, and we could not
get another map. Again we had to
ask where Besain lay. Some of the
people pointed one way and some an
other. Then off we started In what
we took to be the general direction Of
the German capital. This was about
four hours after landing,
Like the Germans who tried to help
us, we two could not agree as to the
right direction. So first Chamberlin
flew the plane for q while one way.
and then Levine took hold and flew it
another. way. Finally, while we were
arguing, our benzol ran out COM
pletely, and we saw that we must land
again. AS the wheels hit the muddy
field they sank down below the mud
and made rut which caused the
plane to turn over on its nose with
the tail up in the air, breaking one of
the tips of the propeller.
Woman Demanded Pay.
The first person to reach US was a
woman, who was in a great state of
excitement about who was to pay for
the damage to the field. She pointed
to the rut which we had made when
the nose of our plane dug itself into
the mud and kept wringing her hands
and shouting, "BeZahlen, bezahlen."
which means PAY. payw
Soon a man joined her. He also
worked himself up into a high state
of excitement about the damage" to
the field.
By this time there was a little
crowd around us. They helped lis to
bring the tail of the machine down
and to get the propeller out of the
mud. We found that we were right
outside the village of Klinge, near
Kottbus, but more than 20 miles
southeast of our goal. Then the
mayor of Kottbus came rushing up
to welcome us with outstretched
hands and we were escorted in tri.
umph to Kottbus.
Then came the big reception there
and the tremendous welcome in Ber-
lin. and life for us ever since has been
just one round of festivities, after
another.

Copenhagen. Sept. l6.- R DIR.
Lauge Koch. Danish explorer, has re-
turned to Copenhagen from an ex-
plofation of Greenland with evidence
that Greenland was .once a tropical
country.
Koch and two assistants explored
the coastland Of North Scorlbysound
to Denmarkhaven, Greenland. The
exploration is considered important
because it shows inhabitants new
routes to North Greenland. Koch
brought back the largest collection of
specimens ever taken from Green
land, eight tons Of fossils, plants and
animals showing three geological
periods.
Some specimens indicated that at
one time there was tropical life on
Greenland, such plants as palms
growing there in abundance. Signs
of numerous hot springs nd rich ami
