generated some bullish enthusiasm
on the theory that the New York
Federal Reserve bank would not
increase its charge until all other
central bank rates had been brought
to the 5 per cent level. However, the
recent decline in sterling, threat
ening a further drain on Great
Britain'S gold. is likely to result in
another increase in the Bank OF

would draw foreign funds from New

then taken to the home of Colonel
Johnston at Fort Brown, where he
remained until the banquet Sat-
urday night.
Likes Air Field
At 4:3O Saturday afternoon Colo
mel Lindbergh received newspaper
men, about a dozen interviewing
him at the quarters of Colonel john
Ston at Fort Brown. The colonel
praised the Brownsville airport, ap-
pearing surprised at the equipment
of the field here. He cautioned
against persons flocking to a plane
while the propeller is still run
ming.
The famous flyer was perfectly
at ease being interviewed, greeting
the newspaper men with a cordial
handshake. and then chatting of
his trip, and answering, or parry
ing questions.
He said the weather was fine
for the trip. and everything went
off as scheduled.
Colonel Lindbergh was asked
about the memorable trip rom
Washington to Mexico City, when
several hundred persons watched
for him at Point Isabel. but never
saw his plane. He said he must
have flown close to Point Isabel,
but probably the plane was invisible
on account of clouds.
The reporters asked Colonel
Lindbergh few personal questions,
the only one being about the date
of his marriage, which brought no
answer.
A large part of the crowd which
went to the airport left after Colo
mel Lindbergh was taken from the
field, but thousands remained for
the christening of Captain Ira Ea-
ker's plane, the Pan-American. by
Miss Mary Fachet Of San Antonio.
In the ship with Lindbergh on
his flight over revolution-torn Mex
leo were high officials of that gov
eminent, including Jesus P. Bravo,
postmaster general; Enrique Cas-
tillOS, chief of the department of
mail transport; Jose v. Chavez,
chief of stamping in the mail de-
partment, and Guillermo VillaSan-
ma, an engineer representing the
secretary of communications. r. v.
Kent, Lindbergh'S co-pilot; William
Barcik, mechanic. and Jacob Dale
Vuelta, Mexico City newspaper man
also were in the ship.
A moment after Colonel Lind
bergh's big ship touched the ground
here the mail sacks were trans
ferred to a plane of the Texas Air
Transport company, which sped
away to San Antonio. A few hours
later the Mexico City mail was on
its way to Chicago on the regular
line from San Antonio.
Passengers who will accompany
Colonel Lindbergh on his return
flight to Mexico City Sunday
morning include j. T. Trippe Of
New York, president of Pan-Amer-
lean Anyways, Inc; Mrs. Trippe, j.
M. Eaton of New York, traffic
manager for the Pan-American;
George H. Rihl, president of the
Mexican Aviation company: Mrs.

Of transport, Mexican postal de-
partment, and three representa-

of good luck.
Eaker gave the crowd a thrill or
two when he went up for a demon
stration flight just after the chris
tening of his plane. Spectators
gaSped at the way he gained altitude
and his great speed as he swooped
down almost to the ground called
forth more EXPLANATIONS.
Hes a real flyer and he knows
what he's about" we're heard on all
sides.
The greatest sight of the day. of
course, was the landing of Col.
Charles Lindbergh with the mail
from Mexico City. The crowd, all
10000 of them, began casting eyes
into the sky at around / p. m, and
when the big Ford tri-motor doomed
into view. at 100, they started a
rush for vantage points.
Indy circled and then landed.
Bedlam broke loose as the multitude
tugged and pushed toward the most
famous man in America. For a
while, it appeared that the police
patrol from Fort Brown would be
successful in holding them in check.
But the urge was too great. Some
one broke through and then the
stampede was begun. The field was
at once a mas of struggling human
ity, for the moment oblivious to the
danger of the lastly whirling pro-
pellors to which they edged ever
nearer. 1t has always been one of
Lindbergh'S fears. that he will in
jure someone through no fault Of
his own.
It was the Indy known the world
over, who alighted from the plane.
He crawled out and as quickly as
possible entered the official a in
which he was whisked away to the
hangar. AS usual, he was bare
headed during the parade. He said
very little and appeared Saturday as
he always appears in photos and
~newsreelS, modest, and a bit timid.
Soon afterwards, he went to Fort
Brown, to be the guest of Col. john
ston, fort commander.
Come out again today at 10 a. m.
and perhaps you may glimpse him
again as he takes off on the return
flight to Mexico City.
Probably the speediest and alto
gether best looking plane on the
field Saturday was the one flown
here by Capt. Frank M. Hawks from
Houston.

Hawks is often spoken of as the
Beau Brummel Of aviation.
He recently created a sensation in
Houston when he arrived there e
ing the well-known raccoon coat.
But he doesn't like to be made over.
He also Is modest to the extent that
he asked someone on his arrival in
Houston what all the crowd was
about, adding that I'm no celeb

The plane Hawks flew here is the
same n in which he established
the new speed record of slightly
more than 10 hours for the nonstop
croS-continent flight.
"This Is no crowd, you ought to
try getting on a New York subway"
Thus commented one of the SOL
diers who was helping to handle the
crowd at the airport when Indy ar
rived.
Apparently there are about four
hundred newspaper men in the Val
ley. At least it appeared so when
the Press Box at the celebration
field was swamped, in spite Of eff
forts of officials. which brought
only temporary results.
There was considerable question
also as to what Classification news
paper men came under in parking.
Several tits between the scribes and
the guards took place, when news

the main buildings, along with the
guest cars.

SEVERE STORM
BATTERS FRENCH
COASTAL CITIES

PARIS, Dee. 80 W.P'--A cyclonic
storm which battered France last
night renewed its attack today with
fresh intensity.
Five persons were dead, two killed
by a falling tree at Hazenbroueh
and three drowned at lie Harvc.
Seven ships asked for assistance
along the coast.
Several towns were damaged and
partly inundated by high waves that
pounded the coast.
The storm missed Paris, but tore
gargoyles off the historic Ruen
cathedral, wrenched ships from their
moorings at lie Harve and hurled
the French steamship Vile d'Oran
into the American steamer Jedden.
The Harve basin felt the full force
Of the gale. The British steamship
Duana was tossed against the dock
wall and q crane mounted on a tug
toppled into the sea, drowning the
captain, engineer and stoker of the
vessel.
A short circuit caused by tho
storm resulted in the burning of tho
beautiful 14th century church at
Etrpagny. Candles used when cleo
tie light failed, started the fire.
