Aug. 25 The German seaplane D-1422, carrying Call. Wolfgang Von Gronau, German aviator, and his crew of three from Germany to New York, arrived at Halifax today after a one-stop flight from Queensport, N. S.

The fliers, who landed at the fishing village of Marie Joseph some 75 miles east of Halifax this morning to make sure of their directions In a dense fog, took off from the village at 12:15 p.m., guided by a Moth pilot plane of the Halifax Flying club, and reached Halifax a few minutes before half past one. Fuel and supplies awaited the Germans here, end they planned to come on to New York probably tomorrow. Began Flight Week Ago The aviators left the island ot Sylt, in the North Sea, on their transatlantic flight last Monday, keeping their destination secret. They flew to the Faroe Islands, and thence to Reykjavik, Iceland, where they announced they were returning to Germany, where Captain Von Gronau is chief of a commercial air service school. Friday the plane left Reykjavik, but chose a course toward Greenland and "landed at Ivigtut in the afternoon.

Fuel had been sent on there, and Saturday morning the plane took off and continued to Cartwright Bay, Labrador. De parture from Cartwright Bay for Queensport was at 7 o'clock Sunday morning. Fog Only Difficulties Captain Von Gronau said that apart from the fog they met with no" difficulties on the flight. The transatlantic crossing is the third westward crossing of the north Atlantic, the other two, however, having been nonstop crossings. Captain Von Gronau is described as a serious-minded young German aviator, greatly interested in the scientific and commercial aspects of flying and of this trip.

He commented that each year his flying school sponsored one long air trip. The Journey last year to Iceland jroved very profitable in meteorological information and flight data. Besides Captain Von Gronau there are aboard the ship Edward Zimmer. aviation student; Franz Hack, mechanic, and a wireless operator named Albrecht. All were attached to the flying school at Warnemuende, Germany.

Gronau Route Favored Ottawa, Aug. 25 (Pi To Canadian aviation authorities the flight of Capt. Von Gronau seems to -prove conclusively the fefvUbility of tha North Atlantic air route as the one that eventually will be adopted between North America and Europe for regular passenger nd freight use. A group of English explorers is now in the Canadian Arctic gathering data on this air route with the Intention of inaugurating a regular service to Canada some day. May Land at Battery The Dornier Company of America recrlved a cablegram from Germany today saying that Captain von Gronau would come on to New York from Halifax.

Officials of the company, accord lng to the Associated Pres3, said they had received no word from von Gronau as to the time of his arrival nd had not yet arranged for his reception here. The ship, they said, must land on water and that he probably will descend at ther North Beach, L. or at the Battery. W. F.

Under the banking law a savings bank may establish only one branch in the borough or city in which its' iiiuiii office is located, but It is legal for a savings bank to acquire additional branches through mergers.

Shown Reference in Court In Miss Moore's opinion, there Is deference shown to the woman lawyer in the court room rather than unkind discrimination. In society in general the woman lawyer has not been accepted as readily, the feminine attorneys agreed, but they attributed it to conservatism rather than prejudice. "I believe that when the public realizes that women attorneys can handle their work as ably and successfully as men. they will be accepted," Miss Knoeller said.

While refusing to admit that there Is any such thing as women's view- Pointer influence In the law. Mis, Moore pointed to some very definite trends in the profession today In which women undoubtedly will have a large part. Say Profession Is Floundering "The law was once an honorable profession," she observed.

This car. according to testimony given by the prisoners at the lineup, had been brought down from Newburgh, N. a few days ago, and was to have been "ditched." Police were inclined to believe that it was connected with some up-State crime.

Meanwhile, Detective Eugene Canevari, whose purchase of a bomb for $250 resulted in the arrests, was promoted from third to second grade detective for his work, and Commissioner Edward P. Mulroonev praised all the detectives Involved in the discovery of the arsenal. The police found It by following James Dalton of Acra, N. who quite readily admitted he was chauffeur for Legs Diamond, possibly the most noted of New York's present underworld figures. But the detectives have never been able to establish that Diamond, whose interests hve always been in Manhattan actually has come into Brooklyn, although there have been strong rumors of such a move in the underworld.

Legs himself, according to Dalton, sailed last week on the Baltic for Ireland. His leaving has now added a minor mystery because the police cannot quite figure why an arsenal, with which he was connected, was left virtually unprotected while he went away, unless some outbreak was planned. The war material was found under a bed in an apartment occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Wltcher and their 7-year-old son Raymond.

The Witchers were both arrested when their stories in explanation didn't convince the police, but actually the detectives got nothing definite In their efforts to find out why it was stored there. It ranged from four large bombs, big enough to destroy a large bu Id-ing, through machine guns and revolvers dwn to tiny fountain pen guns. There were hand grenades and steel vets, silencers and signal lights and several boxes of ammunition. Detectives Fitzgerald. McCarthy and McConeghey marie the find.

They reached it by following a man named Harry Klein of 135 E. Broadway, Manhattan, and Dalton thro'igh 3d Ave. to 6lst St. and to the house. The detectives Just happened to see Dalton dr vlng a big ear.

stop and talk with Klein. Then they followed the two to the Wltcher home. The presence of the arsenal In Brooklyn was thought to mean that a pang war Is In prospect. Detectives differed on the lineup of that war, however. The only thing so far on which thev have been able to aree Is that the fijht.

A little later thev picked up the husband over In 3d Ave. and he said the bags were being held bv him In storage for a "sailor named Fisher who pavs (10 a month." He didn't know where Fisher is now. or when the seaman Is likely to netusn .0 claim the suitcases. Dalton told the police that his visit to the Wltcher home was only to pick up Mrs.
