the white highway down which the
three American Navy bailoonists are ex-

their return to civilization following their
narrow escape from death by starvation
and freezing.
Somewhere out beyond the horizon the
intrepid Americans, Lieutenant Hinton
Farrell and Kloor, were mushing along
today on their southwark journey.
Alert Indians here kept their eyes fixed
on the white highway for II nrst glimpse
of the argonauts. The Americans are
expected to arrive Sunday but may be
delayed because thaw has made the
going harder. AS the hours pass the
tension here increases. The idea of
sending ont an expedition to aid the

pointed out that the dogs o. such an ex-

and keep up with the dogs being used
by Farrell, Hinton and Kloor Their

been at liberty under a sentence of four
months at the Indiana State Farm and 4
hne of 5000 on an assault and battery
charge, was ordered to appear in Crimi-
nal Court this afternoon.
Last week Bush lodged the beginning
OF his sentence when he informed Special
Judge Charles L. Henderson that lis
mother-in-law was critically i'll and for
that reason the beginning of his SEN
tenee was stayed until Wednesday OF
this week. He failed to appear IN court
I wednesday as he explained on the prey
ious day that his mother in-law had died.
Prosecutor William T. Evans stated
today that he twas going to find opt
why Bush had not surrendered himself. "
Z Following a conference with Judge james
4. Collins, Mr.. Evans announced that the
bOndSman was ordered to produce Bush
{ In court this afternoon. Mr. Evans WAS
not party to any delay in Bush be-
ginning to serve his sentence as former
Prosecutor Claris Adams represented the
State on the day that Bush was granted
nearly a weeks grace.
Bush was found guilty about four
years ago on a charge Of assault and
battery growing out of an affair in
connection with the county election two
years earlier. After celebrating four
years the State Supreme Court upheld
the decision of the lower court. Attor-
neys for Bush were given sixty days 20
file motion for new trial. This was
not done and on Dec. II the papers were
certified to Criminal Court. Since that
time, Bush has succeeded in remaining
ont of the penal farm.
The showdown is expected to come this
afternoon. Clerk Kiser of Criminal Court
says the commitment papers have made
out and were waiting for Bush.

The end Of drives was seen today when
a survey showed that few appeals to

the last year.
The method Of raising funds by In
tcnslve public appeals was born during
the war, when the public was educated

Charles A. Plez, chairman Of the United

by charitable organizations is at an end.

I izatlons. Many OF these took campaign
on a percentage basis while others sent
out workers for whose services large pay
was exacted.
Piez said most Of these companies had
disbanded owing TO refusal Of the public
to support the campaign profession.
The method OF professional campaigns
was outlined by one OF their leaders
They would go into n community, he
said, and sell the idea OF n campaign to
one OF the leading citizens. This leader
IN the community would become the cen
ter OF the campaign aud would call
others to raise funds OF the organiza-
ton. During the campaign countless
circus stunts would be put on to get
the attention Of the public. The first
big campaign to fail was the Inter
church World Movement a year ago In
this drive only n small percentage OF the
funds asked was raised.
ALL DRIVES IN
CHICAGO FAIL.
The Red Cross, in n recent drive in
Chicago, received only 90 per cent of
Its quota, the Polytechnic Hospital, 80
per cent and the Republican national
committee. 20 per cent. Figures on the
Democratic campaign were not avail
able, but It is understood only a small
percentage was raised. The Salvation
Army, conceded to be one of the most
popular charitable organizations in the
mind Of the public, recently raised only
$500 900 of its S425 coo Chicago quota.
Piez suggested that organizations in
the future appeal only to those inter
ested in their work. He proposed that
those interested give a definite sum and
drives be eliminated.
