two years further exploration In the

Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1915-09-17

Stefansson's. achievement Is one of
the greatest in the annals of polar
exploration. The Canadian Arctic ex-
pedition, under command of DR.. Stef.
ansson, who is of Canadian birth
though Scandinavian parentage, sailed
from Esquimalt, British Columbia, on
June II, 1918. The purpose of the
expedition was to make scientific in
vestigations along the northern coast
of Canada and to rediscover the blond
Eskimos" whom Stefansson reported
he had met on a previous trip. 1t was
also hoped to discover new lands.
On August Is, after passing Point
Barrow, the northernmost land OF the
American continent, the barkenttne
Karluk, carrying the explorers, was
imprisoned in vast floes of ice at Cam
den Bay. The vessel lay in the ice for
more than a month. Then DR.. Stefans-
son organized a hunting trip to the
mountains of Alaska to get caribou
meat. He took with him three white
men, two natives and dogs and sleds
and was equipped to be gone two
weeks.
He left on September 20 and his
party was not seen again by the
others.
On September % the ice broke from
around the Karluk and she was car
ried westward in a vast floe, leaving
Stefansson and his party somewhere
behind. When Stefansson returned
from his hunting trip he found the
KarIuk gone and then made his way
to Point Barrow, telegraphed a report
home from Nome and then returned
to Herschel Island and fitted out a
dog-sIed expedition for dash north,
starting March %, 1914.
That is the last heard from Stefans-
son until the present time. The |. 5.
revenue cutter Bear found the other
party at Wrangel Island, the karlub
having been crushed in the ice and
lost on January 10, 1914. Twelve Of
the refugees were dead, eight dying in
the ice while trying to reach land
after the Karluk was crushed. One
committed suicide while insane from
exposure. two died of sCurvy and one
accidentally shot himself. Eleven sur

Details are not yet known Of the
other members of the little StefanssOn
party which has been in the north
somewhere ever since.

TRANSFERS PRESIDENT
ORGANIZES JITNEY DRIVERS

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 81
General President Tobin of the Bro-
therhood of 'Teamsters, Chauffeurs,
Stablemen and Helpers states that his
organization has chartered about
twelve local unions of chauffeurs or
jitney bus operators: In Fort Worth
the local has membership of 200
and it is reported that each car .av-'
erages about $12 per day, and that it
takes about $1.65 for oil and gasoline.
Discussing this feature of transpor-
tation, President Tobin says !:
1.-THE large automobile manufactur-
ing concerns throughout the country
are at the present time facing q prob
lem which they do not know how to
solve, and they see a solution to this
problem in the jitney bus, that is
selling their second hand cars at q
very low price, In many cities where
jitney busses are now operating, the
bitterest opposition has been put forth
against organizing the street car enl-s
ployes, viz: Los Angeles, Indianapo-7
lis, and several other cities, whore tho
companies will not stand for union
Of street car men. With the opera
ton Of the jitney bus it may have the
tendency to get the street car com-
,panieA to recognize the necessity of
working hand In hand with their era-
ployes, and to seek the assistance sof
the street car mems union. = $50

COMMERCIAL CLUB
REMODEL SCHOOLS?
Chicago Business Men Try To In
fluence Educational Sys-
TEN.

CHICAGO, April 9-"Follow the
lead of Europe" in educational mat
ters is advice the Chicago, Commercial
club is endeavoring to have newspa-
pers Of Illinois give to the people. The
club continues to scatter throughout
the state free plates Of special articles
in which the school systems of various
European countries are highly eulo-
gized.
Thus the effort to undermine the
present public school system goes on.
The purpose is to split the schools in
to two separately managed and con-
trolled systems. One of these is to
continue along the lines of the present
elementary schools, followed by high
schools, at which the children of the
well-to-do will attend. The other is
to consist of a new system of schools
at which working children will be
compelled to attend. These are to be
called vocational schools, in which
the course of study is to be based
upon the particular job which the un.
fortunate child has been forced by
circumstances to accept.
It matters not what ambitions the
boys or girls may have. If they are
| unfortunate enough to have had tc
| leave school at the age of Ia years
they are to be nodded to fit the job
regardless of what the job may be OF
what the child or it's parents may de.
| sire.
The Commercial club Of Chicago
claims that it is to that kind of g
school system and to such class di
visions among it's children that Ell.
rope owes much of it's progress. But
think of what is happening in Europe
today. The people of Illinois will
| hardly care to follow the lead of Eu.
| rope just now.

CHICAGO, April s.-Conferences
which were recently held by lake

tests against the. new seaman's act
are part Of q campaign on the part
of, lake steamer line owners to pre-
pare the public for an increase in
passenger fares, according to Victor
A.. Olander, president of the Lake
Seamaf1's union.
THE supposed protest against the
new law made at a recent meeting in
Chicago to which great deal of pub
licity was given" said r, President
Olander, was only a pretense for
concealing the main purpose, which is
to raise rates. There is nothing in
the new seaman's act, which might
better be called the La Toilette act,
that will involve the ship owners in
any considerable expense.
Claim Rank Nonsense.
The claim of Harry Meyering of
the Graham and Morton line, Chicago,
that it provides for more lifeboats
than any ship on the lakes can pos
sibly carry, is rank nonsense.

Ern. of 1913 Springfield avenue, this
city, was secured In the East Orange
District Court by the United Hatters
of North America as penalty OF
having taken a union label from q
union, made hat, which he sold on
January 23. The purchaser of the
hat was Hugh J. Glover, the general
agent of the United Hatters of North
America.
According to the testimony, Glover
went to the store and asked to buy a
hat. After showing several, Ern
picked out one nonunion make, which
he offered to Glover for $1.25. Glover
selected it, but just as Ern was about
to deliver it to him, Glover called his
attention to the fact that it had nc
label.
MY friends would guy me if
wore a hat without LABEL remarked
Glover.
"We can put label in it if you
want it, Ern was said to have replied
adding that it would cost him another
rs cents.
Glover accepted the proposition
and Ern ripped one from union
made hat Glover swore that Err
pasted it in the non-union made hat
but Ern contended that he merel!
handed it to Glover, who pasted it IL
the hat himself. Judge Clancy ruled
that 1t was immaterial whether tn
one or the other pasted it in, but tina
Ern became liable when he ripped th'
label from the hat in which it be
longed It was also immaterial, tn
