Washington. June 1, ( API - A home coming in keeping with Hhe history-making flight of rap tain Charles A. Lindbergh, Includ ing a triumphal entrance Into Washington up the Potomac aboard one of his country's war ships. was shaping Itself today but the details largely depend upon the filers wishes and more defi nite information on how and when he will return to the Unit ed States. A special committee of four Cabinet members appointed by President Coolldge has cabled Lindbergh an Invitation to re turn directly* to Washington on the cruiser Memphis in the hope that this speedy ship might bring him to the Capital before Pres ident Coolldge leaves June 13 for his summer vacation. The desire to have the flier come, direct to Washington was prompted by the thought of mak ing his arrival a National celebra tion held in the Capital of the Na tion thus typifying a welcome by all the people and by the hop*' of ""having the celebration include the citation of the plucky youth by President Coolldge with the Distinguished Flying Cross. If Lindbergh arrived after June 13. the citation would be made at the summer White House lI* the Mark Hills, but President IrCoolldge prefers to honor tin- flier * ^ In Washington and have him as ^is guest at the Presidential res idence on Dul'ont Circle. The Nary Department already placed at Lindbergh's disposal the destroyer Breck and there has |beeu talk of the flier sailing for .New York aboard the George Washington, a passenger ship. The Memphis however is one of the fastest Naval vessels afloat. It would he able to laud Lind bergh In Washington late Satur day. Jane n, <>r early Sunday, if the Memphis arrived too late Sat urday to permit President Cool ldge to receive him Lindbergh would be decorated on J tine 13. a few hours before the President leaves Washington for the West. The President's special commit tee, composed of the Cabinet mem bers concerned with aviation ? Secretaries Davis of the War De partment, Wllbur.1 Hoover and Postmaster General New?also discussed Mr. Coolldge's hope that lienors for the llier might In JWde a promotion in tho Army |^lr Corps Reserve from a captain W, ? major. However. Inasmuch as the higher rank would take Lind bergh from his duties In the Mis souri National Guard of whldi he is a flight captain, the committee postponed a decision in this re spect until It could be ascer tained whether the filer would ob ject to the removal. If Lindbergh chose the Mem phis for his homecoming Journey, his plane, the Spirit of St. Louis, also could be taken aboard. While this program, which If carried out, no doubt would eclipse anything Washington has seen for a long time was In the making, a word of dissent was heard In New York which already Is deep In plans to honor the fli er at that port, drover A. Wbalen, chairman of the mayor's recep tion committee, pointing out that the New York to Paris flight was a private venture, not connected with any branch of the Govern ment and declared that New York would resent efforts to bring Lind bergh to Washington. |>IKH HIOM INJIRIKH IXFM(*TKI) 11%' TKNANT ?
