BLINDED BY HAZE
THREE-HOUR SEARCH FOR ISLAND (Received June 6, 11 a.m.) BATAVIA, June 5. The Guba alighted at Batavia 22 hours after leaving Port Hedland. The flying-boat was in touch with the Cocos Islands radio station, which has a
range of only 300 miles,, for more than five hours. It must have circled round the island for nearly three hours without being able to find it in the murky haze.
