aged"
 When the flash first came telling of the Hindenburg's loss most peo- pie had gone to bed, tired out, after day of gay picnicking and party ing on the Ascension Day holiday.
 The clerk on duty at the Zeppelin airport at Frankfort got .se news and thought it was a joke. Half an hour earlier he had received from the Hindenburg the routine nnes- sage:
 "Voyage ended. All aboard well. "
 This is the customary message sent just before 6 landing.
 It was a full hour before ohicials at the field could bring themselves to realize that disaster had overtak- en the ship of which Germany was SO proud. Then emergency calls were sent to all men employed at the air. port, and the sad work of compiling passenger lists, relaying the news and other work was started.
 Fuehrer Adolf Hitler was notified by telephone from the minister of propaganda here. He had just taken a holiday trip along the Kaiser Will helm canal from Cuxhaven.
 The first official statement was that the disaster was caused by a flash of lightning.
 But even today, those who gath cred about newspaper bulletin boards or read the black bordered extras, suggested that it might have been sabotage. There was general mistaken belief among the unin- formed that the ship was tiled with non- -inhammable helium.

 In black bordered newspapers, the people read this morning the story Df the tragedy. But beside th.s story, bn the first pages was the announce ment that new great dirigible, the LZ-13O, soon would be completed and put at once into the transatlan- tic service.
 It was not until after midnight in Germany that the Hindenburg burned and the news did not reach the public until this morning. Early workers crowded around the first extras that were grabbed from news boys. They req dnot only the story of the tragedy but banner-lined stories which said:
