MOTORING AROUND WORLD
Accompanied by a cinematographer and four German mechanics, Fraulein Claerenere Stinnes, only daughter of the late Hugo Stinnes, millionaire industrialist, has motored from Germany through Persia, Russia, and Siberia to Peking (China), where she arrived at the end of last month. Travelling in a German car and motor lorry, the party intends to go on to Japan and South America. The trip was adventurous, with Chinese bandits dotting the landscape, and the party claims to have been the first to motor across Lake Baikal, in Eastern Siberia. It waited for two and a-half months for ice to form on the lake, and then drove rapidly across the surface, with the ice crackling and splintering in the wake of the cars.
