At the Chicago World Fair in 1933, the captain of the Graf Zeppelin was specifically ordered to make a right hand circuit of the fairground before mooring. Why?

Have tried a Google search without success but maybe someone else can help. Thanks

see under 'admin' re painting of a swastika. Perhaps this meant as few people as possible saw the swastiksa ??
