‘Fliers Deviated From Their Goals by Only 20-Mile Error

(Photos, Page One)

NEW YORK. July 16 (U. P).— The U, S. Army's contribution to Howard Hughes’ around-the-world flight was revealed today to have been a secretly developed, quickly rchot navigator, which

intensive test and found to be remarkably accurate.

Mr. Hughes, in discussing the flight, said that one of the most remarkable features had been the accurate navigation. He said he and his four companions had kept such true courses to their goals—Paris, Moscow, Omsk, Yakutsk, Fairbanks, Minneapolis and New York — that they had not wavered more than 20 miles on any leg of the flight. That is, they had deviated only the slightest fractions from the straight line The robot was developed by army technicians at Wright Feld, Dayton, O

It was announced todav that 400 |

His destination was kept secret. At

[last reports, his girl friend, Kath- | arine

Hepburn, red-haired actress, still was in her town house where Mr. Hughes arrived in a taxicab Thursday night only to shy away when front of the house. The young millionaire denied his flight around the world days and 19 hours had cost $300,000. Actually, he said, the cost of the trip might be set as low as $5000. The plane cost him only $60,000, he said; the gasoilne was donated by an oil company and the motors were a gift of the manufacturers. | He belittled the difficulties of the | flight and said that any commercial | pilot, flying a standard transport | plane could have made the trip as | quickly as he did. { The Department of Sanitation, gauging the size of New York's offi- | cial celebration for the fliers yester- |

BLOOMFIELD, Ind. July 16 (U. P.).—~A conscience which couldn't be quieted today had earned a 61-year-old farmer two to 14 years in prison. Thomas J. Gallian’s two-room home burned near Solsberry Monday and neighbors thought it was accidental. Gallian, however, later came to Bloomfield to see the sheriff and county prosecutor. He told them, they reported, that he had an argument with Jacob Bailey, owner of the house, and for revenge had pulled off the wallpaper, saturated it with lard and started the fire. Judge J. Raymond Powell passed

sentence during vacation session of Greene Circuit Court.
