south of Cape Hatteras this afternoon

periods of search that have marked sew
eral of recent flights. For the second
time in two days, friends, officials and
fellow airmen were given anxious mo-
ments when the New York-to-Paris
fiier failed to show up in Washington
on his return from inaugurating the air
mail route to Panama.
The colonel left Charleston, S. c., at
o'clock this morning en- route to
Washington. He was due in the Capital
City about noon and after he was an
hour or more overdue, an intensive
search was started by the Government
lighthouse service and other agencies.
A check of Eastern North Carolina
landing fields and coastal points brought
forth little information. A yellow and
black plane had passed over Southport.

River at $50 o'clock this morning and
over Wrightsville Beach, east of Will
mington at 8:45 am. The Southport
Pilots Association office reported him
flying northeast along the coast line.
1t was not believed that he would
attempt to swing as far east as Cape
Hatterss. but apparently the low visi-
bility overland and heavy rain that
started during the morning led him
to attempt to fly around the storm.
