ling Morton. then commissioner of

ance with a proclamation issued

The day was set by the presi-
dent to conclude the national
forest fire prevention week. which
ends today Saturday. The gen
eral program of Arbor day as it
has been generally observed since
its beginning has been to plant
trees and as this policy dovetails
almost exactly with the policy of
the forest service to safeguard the
growth of timber in the national
forests so thar the forests will be
perpetual. it was decided that the
observance Of Arbor day on April
- should be n fitting finale to the
forestry week.
An Arbor day program was OBJ
served Friday afternoon at the
junior high school and f. p. Yoe-
mans, assistant forest supervisor
Of the Jefferson national forest,
made an. address on the impor-
tance of perpetuating the growth
Of forests by the prevention of
forest fires. He commended the
observance by the school of Arbor
day and said that the forest serv-
ice is not only in favor of the
Arbor day idea, but willing to lend
its assistance in every way pos
sible to the carrying out 'of tree

form agreed to in committee.
The action was taken by a vote of IL

terpreted by committeeman generally as
being in effect the preliminary skirmish
to what promises to become a bitterly
contested battle in the House between
the proponents and opponents OF the

WASHINGTON. June 3.--The United
States Government, it was indicated to-
day in official circles, probably would
interpose no obstacles to the return to
America of those workers who went to
Soviet Russia to engage in mining and
manufacturing enterprises under the
auspices of William D. Haywood, a
leader in the Industrial Workers of the
World movement.
The only tests that are likely to be
applied to the applicants for readmis-
sion to the United States, it was con-
sidered, are those imposed by existing
immigration laws. As many of these
persons are genuine American citizens.

vided the latter has not been forfeited.
they cannot legally be excluded.
The principal obstacle that the
workers are expected to encounter is
opposition from the Soviet authorities
to their departure. Gable dispatches of
recent date from Odessa. for instance,
have stated that fugitives have made
their escape from Russia with the
greatest difficulty owing to the severe
prohibitory laws of the Soviets

AMUNDSEN BEGINS
TRIP TO NORTH POLE
Airplanes to Be Eyes of Ship
on Expedition.

SEATTLE, June ASSOCIATED Press) -
When Capt. Roald Amundsen's explora-
tion ship Maud sailed from Elliott Bay
here to-day for her long voyage through
the ice packs of the uncharted north
polar basin one of the most complete
and extensive scientific expeditions ever
undertaken in that region got under way.
The expedition is a resumption Of the
effort. begun by Capt. Amundsen in 1918,
under auspices of the Norwegian Gov
ernment, to drift past the north pole
with the ice foes. minutely studying
phenomena of vast area never before
visited by white men, and to obtain data
which the explorer expects to revolu-
tionize meteorological and oceanograph-
ical knowledge in the Northern Hemi-
sphere.
The expedition, Capt. Amundsen has
repeatedly declared. is primarily scien-
tfic one. and, while he hopes to reach
the north pole--he discovered the south
pole in 1911-the study of ocean and
magnetic currents. the drift of the ice
pack and movements of the air will be
his first objective.
Special investigation will be made to
determine whether land exists in the
neighborhood of the pole, as some
oceanographers. basing their belief on
sudden shifts in polar ocean currents.
have maintained.
The two airplanes-one capable of car
rying nine passengers and the other a
three ee-seater-and the wireless outfit the
explorer deems the most important
items of the vessels equipment. With
the planes-the o"eyes of the ship"-he
will make an intensive exploration Of
the huge area of almost a million square
miles. covering the roof of the world"
The larger plane will be used for the
more extensive Investigations, while the
scout plane will fly in the immediate
vicinity of the vessel
Husky dogs. to be used in sledge
work after the vessel Is frozen into the
ice, will join the vessel at Nome.
To provide recreation in the long
Arctic winter, books--many of them
have been added to the stores. Six
hundred pounds of candy%Aform an i'm
portant item of the cargo.
The Maud is expected to reach Nome
within three weeks, and by July / to
be heading out into the Arctic. Ice con-
ditions are reported to be better than
during the last ten years. and the ex-
plorer is hopeful of reaching point far
north before the pack closes in, lifting
the little ship bodily to its surface.
Capt. Amundsen expects to drift past
the pole from a point off northeast ST.
IBERIA to Spitzbergen, within five or six
years
