MEXICAN FLIER HALTED BY FOG IN N^CAROLINA Good Will Aviator Plans to Hop Off Today for Washington. Bu United Press MOORESVILLE, N. C.. June 12. Capt. Emilio Carranza, Mexican good will flier, forced down by fog here Monday night while flying to Washington, planned to resume his flight today. Carranza brought his plane down on the emergency landing field of the Atlanta-New York air mail route shortly before 4 a. m. He had been in the air approximately nineteen hours, having left Valbuena flying field at 9:10 a. m. Monday. Word of Carranza’s forced landing was received at Bolling field before dawn as preparations were being made to •welcome the aviator. Troops Ready for Crowds By 6 a. m. an honor guard of j cavalry and Army Band had arrived at the field and troops were j preparing to handle expected crowds. Carranza went to the Commercial j Hotel for a nap, soon after landing. His plane appeared over Mooresville shortly after 2 a. m., and circled over the town thirty minutes seeking the unlighted flying field shown on his map. He flew off to the north, but later returned. Dr. A. B. Slone, drove to the field after hearing the plane’s motor, and lighted his automobile lamps. With this aid Carranza made a good landing. Mail Planes Delayed The heavy fog along the Atlantic coast which forced the descent of Carranza also baffled air mail pilots who were thoroughly familiar with the route over which he was flying. Neither north nor southbound mails reached Washington during the night. The northbound mail plane from Atlanta ventured only as far as Greensboro, about sixty miles by air from Mooresville. Carranza traveled 1,745 miies iu approximately 18 hours and 35 minutes, aviation officials calculated here, averaging 100 miles an hour up to the time he reached Spartansburg, S. C. Air Mail Rates Cut Official, notice of the reduction in air mail rates recently, voted by Congress was received today by Postmaster Robert H. Bryson from Postmaster General Harry S. New. The new rates, effective Aug. 1, are 5 cents for the first ounce and 10 cents for each successive ounce. The present rate is 10 cents for each half ounce. These rates include transportation to and from the air mail route, i being the only postage needed on ! air mail letters and parcels. The new rate for the ordinary letter Is only 3 cents more than ordinary postage, Bryson pointed j out, and should result in greatly i increased volume of air mail.
