United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. NEW YORK, March 29.
Captain Yoshinori Nagoya, of the Imperial Japanese Army Reserve, was killed instantly when a new 40,000 dollar aeroplane, in which he hoped to make a non-stop flight from the United States to Japan, crashed near Floyd Bennett Airport, a few seconds after it had departed on a trial flight. The pilot’s body was removed just before the gasoline tank exploded, completely destroying the machine by fire.
