LINDBERGH JUNIOR
AIR CAREER PLANNED (Own Correspondent—By Air Mail.) LONDON, Nov. 12. Colonel Charles Lindbergh plans to make his two-years-old son, Jon, as airminded as he is himself. That is his chief reason for the purchase of a ’plane built to his own specifications for the highest degree of 6afety. Jon will soon be taken for flights over England by his father. The machine has not been designed for longdistance work, and I know that Lindbergh has no plans for blazing new record trails. Ho will use it chiefly for pleasure trips with his wife and young son, who will grow up with an enthusiasm for flying. One of tho most attractive ’planes ever built, tho Lindbergh ’plane is also one of the safest. Lindbergh, himself, saw to that . . . for Jon's sake. Even tho colours of the ’plane have been chosen for safety for Lindbergh believes that orange and black show up most readily in all weather conditions.
