ARCTIC EXPLORER GREEN
ARRIVES IN DENMARK

Washington, Aug. 26.-Ensign Fitz
hugh Green, the American naval of.
ficer assigned to the Mcmillan Crock.
er Land Arctic expedition, has re.
ported to the navy department his
safe arrival at Copenhagen on August
10, but has made no report OF wheth-
er the expedition found Crocker
Land or of the whereabouts of Nc
MILAN and the other scientists in the
party.
Green announced his arrival from
three years of Arctic exploration in
4 brief cable saying he would proceed
to Washington unless instructed to
the contrary. The navy department
late last night ordered him home,
but made no request for further infor-
nation of the results of the expedi-
ton and will not do so unless re-
quested by the American museum of
natural history or some one concern
ed in the expedition.
Wireless Operator Returns.
Jerome Lee Allen, navy wireless
operator who accompanied Green, ar
rived in New York yesterday but his
arrival was not known to the navy
department and the official dispatch
called for information of Allen.
The National Geographic Society,
the officers say. has no connection
with the expedition and knows moth
ing Of the results. Rear Admiral
Peary, who reported his discovery
of Crocker Land in July, 1906, is at
his summer home in Maine. When
in the fall of 1914 the Mcmillan ex-
pedition reported that 1t had not yet
been able TO find the continent the
admiral reported having seen from
Cape Thomas Hubbard. Admiral Peary
refused 10 be convinced and expressed
belief that it would be located.
Representative Helgeson OF North
Dakota, who has been active in sup

polar controversy. raised such an
objection some time ago 10 Crocker

little more oil than the pipe lines and

are wise they will hold off on the

incidentally it might be said that
the Sinclair people are still buying oil
from many customers have not cut
their purchases as have other com
panies and are storing oil themselves
rather than cut their runs. This same
thing is true of the Cosden company

CAMPAIGN FORY.
N. {. A. STARTS
FOR NEXT WEEK

Next week Americas is to have a big
Y. M. c. A. membership campaign for
two hundred new members and re
newals
Americas has way of holding its
own with cities in its class. 1t takes
two hundred members to make the Y.
NJ c. A. self-supporting and those who
have the association in charge both as
paid officers, and as directors, pride
themselves on the fact that since the
association was taken out of the hands
OF the receivers year or so ago, it has
been self-spporting. No solicitations
for funds have been made to support the
work since the debt campaign was in
augurated in January, 1914.
This effort to increase the member
ship is not an effort to solicit dona-
tons. The association has the capacity
to take care of and interest two hun
dred boys and young men, and it wants
to extend it's influence by adding to its
membership.
The campaign for new members will
10 organized and conducted by Edmund
Mcdonald, an expert association leader
of Atlanta. Mr.. Mcdonald is coming
t. Americas, because he is interested in
the work of the association here, and
because he has been very successful in
campaigning for members, and for
new building funds.
1t was Mr.. Mcdonald who organized
the forces at Moultrie, Ga, and secured
$31, $500 in three days, March 24-27.
This was $1,556OO more than was
asked for at Moultrie. He has also
conducted membership campaigns re
Gently at Townsville and Waycross,
hadding two hundred and seventy-siv
members at these two points.
