MERRILL, LAMBIE I (CgNTINUED FHOMPAGE ONE) I day with the first pictures of the coronation of King George VI The twin motored LockheedElectra, capable of a top speed of 210 tniles an hour, followed the great circle route. The flight, backed by Ben Smith and Mike Bergen, Wall street operators. Is for the sole purpose of flying coronation pictures to New York. Merrill's contract calls for him to leave London immediately after the coronation, regardless of weather. Five thousand persons saw the fliers take off In New York. The big plane, formerly used by Harold S. Vanderbilt as an “air yacht.” used only about 2,000 feet of the 3.200 foot runway. The fliers were dressed in ordinary business suits, and took with them only a few chicken sandwiches, coffee, some tomato juice, and a collapsible rubber boat given them by Al Williams, navy speed flier. The 10-passenger plane had been remodeled so that all availablespace could be used for fuel. Merrill took 1.2(H) gallons and 60 gallons of oil. He estimated that this gave him a flying range of 4,500 miles, 1,000 miles more than he needs. Merrill was to have carried news-rell pictures ot the dirigible Hindenburg disaster, but at the last minute he was informed that “London has banned the films be-1 cause it doesn’t want a shadow cast over the coronation ceremon-' ies.” However, he did carry “still" pictures of the tragedy. May Ban Flights Washington, May 10 — (U.R) Assistant secretary of commerce J. Monroe Johnson announced to- [ day he is considering banning ‘unnecessary’ trans-oceanic flights such as the hop to London by . Dick Merrill and the projected globe girdling flight of Amelia | Earhart. Simultaneously Johnson i told the United Press he is defi , nitely opposed to the projected , Lindbergh anniversary New York j to Paris flight, sponsored by the [ French government. “We are just about to start con

There were few. despite the dismal weather and the dislocation lof traffic caused by the bus ! strike, who stopped to complain lor to be depressed by recollection j that King George is being crowned only because King Edward i VIII, the one time “prince charmi ing,” left his throne and his peo- | pie for love ot a foreign born i woman. I Edward, with Mrs. Wallis Simp- ! son. seemed much farther away than the mere miles between London and the Chateau De Cande in France. I The coronation is a symbol which means that England, Great Britain and the empire go on. King George is the 40th sovereign of England - omitting the two Cromwells —and behind those 40 , were 19 Saxon kings. This Wednesday was lo li.iv

been the coronation day of Ed-1 ward VIII. His brother, George, Just steppel in at the moment Edward, as Duke of Windsor, stopped out. Since the last coronation in 1911, that of George V, father of the monarch to be crowned Wednesday. there have been events that, have shaken the world. In Europe, the monarchies of Russia, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, Spain, Montenegro have passed. An age of dictators began. Four years of world war succeeded by a troubled peace to safeguard which Great Britain is spending 17,500,000,000 for armaments. This coronation finds the empire a commonwealth of nations, with the Irish Free State linked to the mother country only by the most tenuous of ties and the dominions generally sovereign states, with India starting on the path toward self-government under a new constitution. But there was little time today for such thoughts of these. Milling in the jammed streets of the west end. the crowds sought what fun they could and looked forward to Wednesday and the crowning of a new king and queen who have, as their heir, an 11-yeer-old princess who some day may rule as Elizabeth 11. o FIRST WITNESS — -9. i y^- > _-, ing to indicate that the dropping of the manila landing ropes, which dis-
