PLUCK AND LUCK

1t was with feeling of relief that the world
learned last night of the safety of the Bremen after
Hight across the Atlantic from Ireland to Labrador.
What matters it if the real objective of the flight
was not reached the feat of Koehl Huneed and Fitz
maurice is crowned with success They have the dsnc
on of being the first to the Atlantic by arplane
from east to west. The narrowing experience they
went through, when what they believed to be suf-
hclent supply Of fuel proved woefuy inadequate,
plans the fate of those other flyers who pershed in
attempting to perform what the Bremen accomplished
The pluck of the Germans and the luck O. the
Irish may explain the success of the Bremen as we'll
forces of nature attempted to engulf them and the
luck in finding safe landing place when their fuel was
gone.
Ten years ago Captain Koeh and Baron Hume
held would have been considered enemies of the Unit
ed States. This fact will not in the least cool the ardor
Of the welcome which they will receive when they fin
ally reach New York They. like millions of u.s. were
only answering the call of their country 10 years ago
Colonel Fitzmaurice represents government that
not IN existence 10 years ago. but he is from country
as old as the hills themselves.
Spectacular air feats have the happy faculty of
wping out bonds of nationality The airpane may be
terrible engine of but is also powerful factor
in promoting peace, and bringing the nations of the
earch closer together than before The arrival of
Captain Koehl and Baron Hunefied, should do much
to wipe out some of the bitterness of decade ago.
AS for Colonel Fitzmaurice, Irishman ever felt
like stranger in America. He is reported somewhat
worried bcause unlike his German companions he is
not supplied with passport He is his passport.
With Mayor Jimmy Walker and 10000 Irish cops on
hand to welcome him at New York, it will be wonder
if the colonel does not become confused and imagine
he has landed back in Dublin.
