| Dec., 25, (JP)—A difference in opin
ion as to the feasibility of the
j proposed flight of the Graf Zep

i year has developed between Dr.
j Ekener and Captain Burns, sec
retary of the Aero Arctic Society,
j which is sponsoring the flight.
Dr. Eckener said he no longer
expected the flight would take
! place next year as neither the
Zeppelin company nor the Arc

insurance.
Captain Burns said the project
was by no means off “and that
we have every reason to believe
our negotiatons with British in
surance companies, will prove
successful.”

BETHLEHEM, Dec., 25, (/P)—
Church fathers solemnly made
preparations for the celebration
of Christmas Day thankful that
the disorders which a few years
ago left a bloody stain over the
Holy Land, has ceased.
The Latin patriarch, accompa
nied by the clergy, escorted by
mounted police, came to Bethle
hem making the trip by motor.
It was a great change from the
olden days when the patriarch
preceeded by prelates, mounted on
a charger, was the fashion.
Christmas Eve, the patriarch
and his suite, and congregation,
proceeded to the old Franciscan
convent, just north of the church,
for the midnight pontifical mass
where anglicans intoned Christ
mas hymns. Just opposite, was
the Greek convent, adjoining the
church on the southern side.
