SABOTAGE THEORY
HINDENBURG CRASH
NOT DISPELLED YET
NEW YORK, June 18.
A message from Lakehurst, New Jersey, states that the commander of the air station there, Commander Charles' H. Rosendahl, addressing the American Air Planning Council, stated that the suspicion that the Zeppelin Hindenburg had been sabotaged had not been dispelled. The airship arrived 12' hours late and saboteurs possibly timed a bomb to explode after the passengers had left the airship.
He expressed the opinion that dirigible development had not .ended, and urged the United States and Great Britain to adopt airship programmes, declaring that both Powers could use dirigibles for war-time reconnaissance.
