FLIER REACHES FAR NORTH IN AERIALSURVEY U. S. Aviator in Iceland After Perilous Hop Over Atlantic. by United press REYKJAVIK. Iceland. Aug. 7. Parker Cramer, American flier on a daring surprise flight over the perilous north Atlantic from America, landed here at 3:55 a. m. today, 5 p. m., Thursday, <C. S. T.i from Greenland. Cramer is surveying a commercial flying route from the United States to northern Europe, to include several stops and be made comparatively safe by precautions he is expected to outline. Cramer left Angmagsalik, Greenland, late Thursday. He had to fly over 500 miles of little-traveled north Atlantic waters, where storms and fogs frequently have halted aviators. The aerial survey for a commercial air service was received with enthusiasm among Danish fliers, reports from Copenhagen said. It was hoped that Cramer’s pioneering work would forge anew link in communications across the Atlantic. Last Legs Safer The route from Angmagsalik to Copenhagen via Iceland and Norway is not considered particularly hazardous, except in foggy weather. It involves flights of some 500 miles from Angmagsalik here, thence over water on another 500-mile cruise to the Faroe islands, and then a leg of about 400 miles to Norway with the Shetland Islands lying midway along the route, a safety feature on this phase of the course. The flight of Parker Cramer and Oliver Pacquette from Detroit to Greenland on the way to Copenhagen is the first of a series of survey flights which may lead to the establishment of a mail route to Great Britain and Europe, according to E. G. Thompson, president of the Thompson Aeronautical Corporation of Cleveland. Second Plane to Follow Thompson revealed that another plane has been prepared and will start as soon as Cramer finishes his present flight, it will be piloted by Eddy Preston and will be followed by other flights on a monthly schedule . “Cramer’s flight was the first ever undertaken and completed across the Greenland ice cap,” Thompson said. “We are pleased, naturally, at the success of his trip so far, but we anticipate that much remains m the way of a study and preparation before we shall feel qualified to go to the postoffice department and apply for a mail contract. fill 1 'nitrd Press COPENHAGEN, Denmark. Aug. 7. —Parker D. Cramer, the American flier, is expected to reach Copenhagen Saturday. He will be awarded the aernonautic society’s gold medal for his accomplishment.

JAPANESE HOLD GLOBE-GIRDLING PLANEATTOKIO Check Pangborn-Herndon Route, on Possibility of Espionage. By United Press TOKIO, Japan. Aug. 7.—Clyde E. Pangbom and Hugh Herndon Jr., American fliers, who abandoned their race around the world, were unable to get their monoplane at Tachikawa airport today. It still was held by Japanese authorities, pending a check of the route they followed over Japan to ascertain that the Americans had not inspected any of Japan’s secret fortifications from the air. The foreign office said the plane would be released when the check j was completed. Plan Long Flight Pangbom piloted the monoplane j here from Khabarovsk, in eastern : Siberia, Thursday. He said he had j not received telegrams instructing him to remain at the Russian city until a regular landing permit had been arranged. He said he believed his emergency landing permit would be sufficient. The fliers are here planning a j non-stop flight from Tokio to the I United States. Their machine will ;be thoroughly overhauled, and an additional oil tank built on j Pangborn and Herndon may be | one of three American flying teams planning to attempt the Pacific flight to the United States. Hope to Get Permit Don Moyle and C. A, Allen were I reported still optimistic that they { can overcome official opposition i here to their start in a second-hand plane on the perilous flight. The Japanese, who indicated they might hold the plane for auction for “deI linquent customs payment,” insisted
