"It may be So" he said, but I don't
know"
Admiral BurTage today remained 81

Curtis and his associates sailed from

used the yacht Maroon.
The results of this trip were shrouded
in the same secrecy that has covered
the maneuvers of the intermediates
since their lengthy negotiations were
started.
The Maroon has repeatedly sailed
from the naval base to unannounced
destinations since the scene of Mr..
Curtis activities was apparently shifted
on April % from the land to the sea.

since then only short intervals of rest
have come between the movements Of
the yacht. It was learned that at least
several Of the cruises were made out to
sea.

A. Lindbergh with the Norfolk negotia-
tions as an active participant aboard
the boat. Others known to be accom-
panying Mr.. Curtis include Lieut..
George l. Richard, naval air pilot, and
Edwin B. Bruce of Elmira, NJ Y, an
old friend.
