MISSING FLYERS
CLAIMS BY WIDOWS COLUMBUS (Ohio), March 24. The fatal flight that Parker Cramer and his mechanic, Oliver Paquette, made in an effort to blaze a mail route from the United States to Copenhagen, in which they crashed after leaving the Shetland Islands, was the subject of claims of £I3OO by Mrs Fannie Cramer, of New York, and Mrs Paquette, of Grand Rapids, Michigan, made before the Ohio Industrial Commission. The amounts asked are the maximum awards under the Ohio laws. Both men were employed in making the survey for the Thompson Aeronautical Company, of Cleveland. They started their flight from Detroit and followed a route across Greenland and toward Copenhagen. After leaving the Shetland Islands they were never heard from. The wreckage of their plane was found off the English coast.
