.DO-X HOPS TODAY
ON TRIP TO j. S.
Great Flying Boat Likely to
Ignore Weather on Amster-
dam Flight.
BY the Associated Press.


ALTENRHEIN, Switzerland, Novem-
Der WEATHER reports from the north,
along the course over which the great
flying boat DO-X is to fly tomorrow on
the first leg of her flight across the
ocean to America, were unfavorable to-
night, but are not expected to delay the
airship's departure.
Comdr. Friedrich christensen was
not gloomy at the prospect.
Start Set for 8 AM.
I'VE will be off shortly after 8 o'clock
in the morning." he said.
All the mechanics and other members
of the crew were ordered to be aboard
the airship by 1880 am.
Her fuel tanks were full and engineers
had made the last adjustments to her
instruments in final preparations Tor
start TO Amsterdam at O'Clock
g am. Eastern standard time).
Select Tentative Route.
Comdr Christensen said he planned
to head his ship into the west, follow
ing the Rhine until it winds into Hol-
land, but his exact route will be de-
termined by the weather he encounters
and by how much daylight Is left after
the take off.
If the start takes place promptly at
8 o'clock, the pilot should sight Schsll-
ingwoude, the Dutch naval airport out
side Amsterdam. between ! and z
o'clock in the afternoon.
IS Hours Over Ocean.
The transatlantic cruise is expected
to consume about 35 hours OF actual
flying time. but the amount OF time Tor
layovers at the various scheduled stops
en- route depends on the weather and
other contingencies. 1t is not unlikely
that the DO-X may take a week OF
more to reach New York from Lisbon
Ten hours is the estimated hying
time from Lisbon to the Azores and
there probably will be a one-day lay
over there before the start of a 12-hour
leg to tank ship which will be waiting
about 700 miles southwest of Bermuda
1t will be only brief stay at the
tanker before the 6-hour hop to Ber-
muda begins. At least one day will be
spent on the island, and perhaps Severa
days, before the final 7-hour stretch
TO New York begins.

William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor. yester-
day advised workers to stay away from
Hoover Dam, asserting there was no
immediate prospect of employment
there.

tailed report on the project, the labor
leader said "it will be nearly a year
before contract can be let for con-
struction." The report, from an I'M
named source, said bids for construc-
ton of the division tunnel and dam
proper probably would not be called
before next July.
The report said in part: ut is neces-
sary to emphasize this in order to cor
rect the general impression which seems
to prevail that a large construction
force Is to be organized at once"
