ZEPPELIN SERVICE

for

New York, Nov. 21. shortly to enter in an agreement with Germany for the joint operation of a Transatlantic dirigible service.

Tentative terms have been agreed on by Dr. Hugo Eckener and Mr. Roper, United States Secretary of Committee. An American Zeppelin Company will be formed, providing Mr. Roper can arrange to have the marine subsidy laws extended to cover United States aircraft engaged in foreign commerce. It is, thought that this can be arranged casily.

The American company will construct two Zeppelins, while in the meantime Dr. Eckener will rent the United States firm a new dirigible he is now building.

Eventually a Zeppelin service of two United States and two German airships, operated by the two companies but with a pool- ing of personnel and terminal facilitics, is planned.
