ZR-3, Our Big German-Built
Zeppelin, Breaks Record
on Trip Across Ocean.
Z U-3.
tier
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
the giant Zeppelin built by
tiermany for the United States as
war reparations, successfully made the
flight from Uriedrlchshafen, Germany,
to Lnkehjrst, N. last week in 81
hours, 17 minutes. The distance over
land and sea covered by the.huge glit
tering airship was f*,OdG miles, ijnd she
broke all flight endurance and long
distance non-sjtop speed records. The
average speed for the entire trip was
t)L’.3."i miles an hour. Sin* crossed the
Atlantic at about twice the speed of
the fastest ocean liner.
I>r. Hugo < E' , k*‘ n, ‘ r - president of the
Zeppelin company, commanded the
dirigible on the trip and the crew was
Herman. Three American naval ofll-
cers and one army otlhvr were aboard
as observers. As soon as the landing
was made ijt Eakehnrst, I>oot»r Eck-
ener lowered tin* Herman colors, and
flu* airship hecatne the property of tlie
United States.
Not a single mishap tnarkeil the
epochal flight from Europe to America,
hut head winds and fogs caused the
navigator to changt* his course when
approaching our shores and instead of
coming by the more southern route the
Zeppelin headed toward the northwest
and then came down the toast of Nova
Scotia and New England Reaching
New ^ ork about 8 o’clock Wednesday
'morning, she maneuvered over the
metropolis in a great crescent, t<> the

Of tht* 11’d dirigibles built by the
Zeppelin company, the"'ZR-3 is the
best, according to Doctor Eekener.
Over in tiermany, pride In the me
chanical achievement Is mixed
chagrin because America gets the
and because, according f t> the terms of
the Versailles treaty, Hermany can
build no more big dirigibles that would
be capable of being transformed into
war craft. The French are urging that
the Zeppelin factory be dismantled at
once, and already many expert em
ployees of the company have been sent
to America, Spain ;ind Sv\ eden, where

Heneral Wu, the Peking military
chieftain, is reported to lie having
some success in checking the advance
of Heneral Chang's armies. For some
days he lias been devoting ids efforts
largely to exhausting the enemy’s amt
munition. One of Ids schemes is to
place thousands of peasants, in civilian
dress and unarmed, in front of ids
troops. It is said thousands of these
impressed wretches have been slaugh
tered. (»n one occasion a Mukden army
expended a vast amount of ammunition
firing at an area whence they heard
idg gun and rifle fire at night. Day
light revealed that'the supposed gun
fire Was produced by the explosion of
firecrackers in kerosene cans, Chung’s
men had by that time used all their
ammunition, anti the Chihli troops
easily drove them back.
Japan lias warned the warring fac
tions that sive will not t«derate dam

terests in Manchuria. France also
is disturbed over the danger to tier
interests there, and Premier Herrlot
has protested to Peking against the
agreement with Heneral .Cluing con
cerning tin* Chinese D.istern railroad
and other properties. The Japanese
press keeps up its anti-American
projfltgandn. asserting that the Peking
troojrs are supplied \?it!i ammunition
from America. This is denied by the
foreign ammunition dealers, who say
the supplies are of Herman origin.
Towards the clo.se of the week re
ports came from Canton that Chinese
"Reds" were stirring tip much trouble
there and had started serious fires in
many parts of the city. Looting had

with refugees. Foreign hospitals and
missions asked the American consulate
to use tlie gunboats in tlie harbor for
their protection.

that lie had withdrawn libs offer to tlie

abandoned all interest in that devel

cided by anyone within a week, lias
become a complicated political affair.
We are not in politics and we are in
business." His plan now is to develop
a vast amount of power fuel and

Kentucky. Senator Norris is to he
