Great Demonstration of Admiration for Skill “ and " Courage of American Flyers Who Crashed on Beach After Being Lost in Fog.

PARIS. July 2. —— Commander Richard E. Byrd and his three companions on the transatlantic flight -of the giant monoplaue Am- erica arrived in Paris from Caeu at 12.28 p. m. today, receiving a t. mendous ovation from a huge crowd that filled the St. Lazaro railroad station and overflowed lu- to every nearby street.

So dense was the throng that Commander Byrd and hie compan- ions. af-ter a short reception upon their arrival on the station plat; term, had to fight their way to awaiting automobiles while the crowd cheered wildly and threw flowers in their path.

Despite a heavy rain, the- aviat- ors who had battled for 42 hours with fog and storm in their trans- atlantic flight which ended in the early hours of yesterday on the bench at Ver-SurMer on the coast of Normandy, 175 miles west of Paris, were given a reception such as that‘ given to Charles A. Lind- bergh, who so quickly became the darling oi the world on his own epochal flight.

Tile Place Du Havre in front oi the Lazaro station was crowded as it had not been before in the mem- ory of veteren gendarmes. Men held women high in tho air to watch the passage of ‘the fliers. While children wormed their way through inconceivable places to get to the front llneanll tbs hi8 police force stationed all along theroute had the hardest kind of work keep~ lugs passage-way clear for tho pro- cession. ‘ s -

The tremendous tdlhusiasm was not‘ confined - to ifurilxflandgevery station along the route from Caen was jammed with people when the train passed. So eager were the crowds to see their new heroes that the windows of compartments were broken" as ‘passengers Jestled and pushed shout. After their arrival in Paris. the aviators lset out for a local hotel- in- a drlzllling rain. while thousands oi cheering Paris- Ians-braved the wet wveather ‘to greet them and to-shont France's admiration of their sklllaud. cour- age ill-their valiant flight against the storm ccndlt-ioua-tltey._had en- countered throughout "their great air voyage. t; - . ,9‘
