BUDAPEST, Hungary, July Is (E).--
The Hungarian myers, capt. Alexander
Magyar and Capt. George Endres,
bringing Justice Tor Hungary across
the transatlantic air lanes, were await
ed hopefully today by thousands of
their countrymen.
Special trains were transporting hun
dreds to MatyaSold Airdrome, where
the airmen were expected this after
noon. Aviation experts we're inclined
to believe, however, that the flight
would not be nonstop on account of
the distance overland from the Atlantic.
Hopes ran high on the basis of re-
assuring weather reports from the
meteorological station telling OF good
conditions all over the North Atlantic.
But reports OF poor visibility and low
hanging clouds owe: Ireland gave rise
to fears that the airmen might lose
their way. Radio amateurs were tuned
in on q 60o-meter wave length to pick
up their signals.
Prepare for Reception.
BY noon 100000 enthusiastic Hun
garians had gathered at the airport
and every hour trains rolled in loaded
to capacity.
The ofacial Welcoming Committee,
modelling its plans en- the American
style. has arranged to take the flyers
by automobile along the principal
streets Of Budapest to the City Hall.
This is an honor which never has been
granted before.
Throughout Hungary those who had
lost hope that a flight of this kind ever
would be made arc filled with I'M
bounded enthusiasm, for the Justice
for Hungary has become a symbol of
the trials and disasters through which
the naticn has passed.

other job that was far from an
easy one and that. was answering
queries both verbal and written,
in regard to special numbers"

pet number that he feels might
bring him luck. that is, If low
enough. immunity from pink
tickets. Long before the tags
are even ready these motorists

ROSE COMP ANY

to obtain the contract for the con-
struction of the 100000 tubercu.
losis ward at st. Elizabeth's Hos

Comptroller General McCarrs
ruling does not provide sufficient
"leeway," officials say. for the
award to be shifted from the Rose
company, which is opposed by la
Dor interests on the ground that It
imports nonunion labor. The
firm, by a margin of more than
5000, was the Lowest responsible
bidder" ON the contract.
Awarding of the bid to the Rose
company, which now appears in
evitable, will lead to labor clashes
under the Davis prevailing wage
act, officials predict. For that rea-
son they frankly seek to give the
contract to another contractor.
