CUERS. France. May i5.-tPl-
French bluejackets stood guard to-
day about the German dirigible
Graf Zeppelin. housed in the han
gar from which their own Inflated
Dixmude went forth five years ago
to disaster. Inside the hangar
French mechanics assisted the
Crafts crew, former enemies. but
now friends In distress, to repair
the damage which had incapacitat-
ed four Of the dirigible's five motors.
The entire atmosphere was n OF
friendliness and good fellowship
with a dash of bitter disappointment
among the Germans that they had
failed TO take their ship another
time across the Atlantic.
The first man TO call on DR.. hugo
Eckener. the dirigible's master, after
he arose late this morning, was Rear
Admiral Bintry, commanding the
French naval base at Toulon.

fill" the German commander toiu

In the short conversation which
followed DR.. Eskener insisted espe-
cially on the word "efficacious." re-
peating IL three o. four times.
IL was no secret here that the
German commander did everything
possible to avert a forced landing In
France. When turning back when
off the coast Of Spain It was DR..
Eckener's deep-rooted intention 70
make Friedrichshafen under n
dirigible's own power, even though
two of its motors were already out
OF commission.
The third motor passed out near
Mines, and the fourth motor was 81
fenced when passing over Monteli-
mar. In the hours that followed.
the violence Of the cold northwest
wind forced a change in hts plans.
necessitating even his eventual call
for help TO the French authorities.
I'VE have failed TO cross the At
lantic as we had done before and as
we shall do again before long" DR..
Eckener said.
French naval authorities were
loud in their praise OF the manner
in which DR.. Eckener had handled
his ship In an extremely difficult
situation.
Passengers. except those who left
for C~herbourg and Paris, rested to-
day at Toulon after the fatigue and
worry for the past two Gays.
