Plans for funeral cortege of air for Carranza
United Press reports Mexico City plans a squadron of military planes to circle the train bearing Captain Emilio Carranza and form three funeral corners of the air as the body enters the capital. The planes would likely nest the train at Quertaro and accompany it to Mexico City. General Jose Luis Avila and cadet pilots head to Laredo to join the train. Pilot Bieler Pacheco offered a plane to transport the body from the U.S. border, but the government declined. The Pacheco plane will be known as the Emilio Carranza. General Alvaro Obregon said he and business men will insure the young flyer for 12500 dollars on the Mexico-Washington flight, with potential support for Carranza’s dependents.
