Conspicuous among the passengers booked for the Atlantic trip were C. E. Rosendahl, commander of the Los Angeles; Count Brandenstein Zeppelin, 30n-in-law of the late great Count; Herr Brandenburg, chief of the German Air Ministry; Lady Drummond Hay,* Hearst correspondent, who will be the first woman ever to have made such a crossing.
