Freight and mail were carried on the crossing to Lakehurst and return to Friedrichshafen. but had to be reposted by regular route when the big ship landed at Toulon on its recent unsuccessful flight.

As in its previous flights, the Zeppelin is depending jpon hydrogen as its lifting gas and blau gas and high-test gasoline for its motors. The blau gas, weighing almost the same as air, is a valuable fuel in emergencies whieii necessitate the releasing of fuel for ballast. When the Zeppelin lands at Lakehurst on Sunday morning, as now expected it will discharge freight and passengers and refuel for a start on Wednesday for its flight around the world.

The first stop is tched-ulel for Friedrichshafen. then Tokio, Los Angeles and Lakehurst again. The world flight will cover approximately 1S.000 miles. Both Lakehurst-Friedrichsviafen crossings, at the beginning and en.J of the world flight are expected to be 3.000 miles each, so that the Graf will add to its already multitudinous laurels an almost sustained flight of 25,000 miles.

The Graf was then reported to be sliding through the skies at about 100 miles an hour, almost its maximum speed. Most of the passengers took th first few hours as an opportunity to rest and overcome the tensity with which they had awaited the start.

Their gaiety at Friedrichshafen lasted until almost the last minute at the Kurgarten Hotel, where they dance and revelled until the final second. As the ground crew shoved the giant bag into the air, her motors took a trip on the atmosphere, and soon she rose gracefully and. gaining altitude, sped oft to the south, toward Constance, which was soon placed behind the ship.

Minister to U. S. Defends Country's Action at Political Institute. WILLIAMS TO Mass. Aug.

I -(PI China's recent expulsion of Soviet officials of the Chinese Eastern Rail way was the result of the discovery of a grave conspiracy" against China, and was neither a seizure of the railway nor a violation of agreements with the Soviet government. Dr. C. C. Wu, Chinese minister to the United States, said Speaking at the opening session of the Institute or" Politics at Williams College.

Or. Wu discussed at length the Sino-Russian dispute over the Chinese Eastern Railway, which be characterized as "an instrument of Russian expansion and domination in Manchuria," and outlined the conspiracy which he said occasioned China's action. Documents Disclose Plot. Chinese officials, he said, had made a forcible entry on a meeting of the third Internationale, attended by Russion consul generals. Communist agitators, officials of the Soviet consulate at Harbin and had discovered partly burned documents.

"A translation of tha documents disclosed a grave conspiracy against China," said Dr. Wu. "There was not only the usual type of communist agitation and propaganda, but there was evidence to show the conspirators were trying to instigate Civil war In China and to cause injury to the Chinese Eastern railway. "What China did under the circumstances was dictated by the most elementary law of self-defense. After deliberation of six weeks she ordered the expulsion or arrest of the officials of the Soviet consulates, trading agencies and of the Chinese Eastern Railway and the closing of the Soviet organizations.

"Some people have the impression that China wants to regain control of the railway wherein she is morally right, but that in doing what she has done, she is legally wrong. It would be hypocritical to say China does not want the railway back. We have minced no words in proclaim ing our intention of abolishing all unequal treaties. But we have also repeatedly stated that in so doing we employ legitimate means. The Chinese Eastern Railway will be ours by reversion and can be ours by; redemption in only a few years time." Emphasizes Agreement.

The speaker pointed out that the agreement of 1S96 which granted the right of railroad construction to Russia, stipulated that 80 years after the completion of the line it should revert without payment to China. but in 36 years' time China could exercise, the right of redemption. Dr. Wu closed his address with an emphasis on China's adherence to the Kellogg pact. Dr.

Harry A. Garfield, president of Williams College and chairman of the Institute of Politics, making the address of welcome at the open-' ing session, outlined the limitation of armaments and the tariff as the outstanding problems of the institute. The institute, supported by the Rockefeller foundation, the Carnegie Corporation, John D. Rockefeller, and the general education board, will remain in session until August 23.
