A tremendous amount of Pacific

EQUIP NAVAL AIRSHIP FOR
FLIGHT FROM SAN DIEGO TO
NORTH POLE; PLAN ROUTES

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 16.-When the
United States naval airship ZR-1
sails from San Diego within the
next few months for the North Pole
she win carry radio to the top of
/ the world.
Tn addition to n powerful radio
receiving and transmitting set the
huge airship is being equipped with
the latest type of radio compass.
Among the radio stations to which
the ZR-1 could report her position,
according to the bureau of aero,
nautics, are the following:
Three in Iceland; Spitzbergen on
the 18th parallel; Ingoy, II degrees
north; several in northern Russia
United States navy and army set
tions at Kodiak, Nome and else
I where on the Alaskan coast; Jam
Mayen station on the east coast of
iceland, and Mijgbougton, Is de,
grees north, on the coast of Green
land.
The zR-1is equipped with a type
S. Z. 1890 transmitter, designed for
flying boats like the NC-4, which
made the flight across the Atlantic.
1t ha smodifieations; making it gas
proof. ..
The radio compass has been in.
stalled in the keel, just forward of
the control car, and may be used
for taking bearings on wave lengths
varying from 500 to 5000 meters.
The airship's name will constitute
her radio call, just as the ZR-2, be-
fore her fatal mishap over the
Humber river in England, answered
to ZR-2. Lieut.. J. II. Gowan, for
merly attached ito the North Island
naval air station, will be in charge
of the radio aboard the ZR-1. He
will be assisted by Chief Radioman
j. T. Robertson.
According to word received here
from Rear Admiral William Mof,
felt, chief of the bureau of aero
nautics, the exact route to be fol-
lowed by the ZR1 in it's dash to the
North Pole from San Diego has not
yet been mapped out. Two routes
are being considered, one directly
from Lakehurst, N. j., to Nome, the
other from San Diego to Nome and
then due course north to the pole,
a distance of 1866 statute miles. In
any event Nome will be used as a
supply base.
The British dirigible R-34
crossed the Atlantic and returned to
England in 1919, travelling a dis
tance of over 1000 miles in week s
time. In 1917, a German Zepplin
made % cruise of $500 miles in four
days. The cruising radius of the
ZR-l is between 1000 ana 5000
miles so the distance of the polar
trip is not considered extreme for
the 6SO-foot dirigible.
Capt. E. B. Baldwin, noted Arctic
explorer, has urged the ,navy de-
partmcnt to refrain from sending
the FRI to the Arctic circle until
next spring when he said the air
ship would not have to fly in as in
tense darkness or in such bitter cold
rs it would be subjected to if the
flight was attempted between Sep
tember and April.

SMITH TO SIGN REPEATER

In Building Up Support

BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
" Leased Wire To The Accelerate

WASHINGTON. May 1S.-Liauor
las elbowed it's way through cor
don of stalwart political questions,
such as the tariff, railroads, and the
world court. until it has come out in
front as the conspicuous issue of the
moment.
This situation has been brought
about by President Harding. who re-
Gently predicted that prohibition
would be an issue for many years ia
come. His letter regarding the repeal
OF the New YORK state enforcement
act has drawn new lines for the pro-
hibtion fight. He holds that multi
ficaton of federal prohibition by n
state is as dangerous to the nation as
the resistance of southern states at
the time of the Civil war.
Democrats Nationally Dry.
Most democratic leaders privately
take the position that their party
cannot oppose the President on the
direct issue raised in the case of New
York. Governor Smiths close friends
predict he will sign the repeal act.
National party leaders concede this
as Smiths unquestioned right. But
they win make no effort to defend
Lis action before the country.
However they say Harding has in
terfcred i'll Il local situation and at
tempted to exert his influence within
ereign. On this point of principle the
democrats are ready to wage ma
tional discussion. The merits of New
ork's action and of prohibition itself
would not be at issue, if the demo-
Gratis succeed in, turning the debate
INTO this channel. Democrats are
anxious to avoid d direct fight over
liquor since many powerful factions
within the party are wet, because OF
local conditions in New York. New
Jersey and elsewhere, yet the party
leaders are convinced they cannot
stand nationally as vets.

about prohibition than his world

effort in an address at St Louis Fri
day night to link the world court
with the League Of Nations. From
that premise, Borah and all of the

wage the old league fight over again.
The fight on the court is actually a
fight against HardinG's leadership of
his party. Defeat on this issue would
damage his prestige. But Harding,

REVISION OF RAIL
MERGER PLAN URGED
Officials Appear Before Interstate
Commerce Commission

WASHINGTON, May ia num-
Der of revisions in government plans
in railroad consolidation were rec
commended by railroad officials today
before the interstate commerce som
mission.
William S. Jenny, vice pre- sident
and general manager. Delaware,
Lackawanna Western. protested
against proposals to include that line
in group with New England roads
and SAID that an alternative plan
linking it with the Erie and Wabash
systems. even though dangerous,
would be more desirable.
Frank II. Alfred, president of the
Pere Marquette, argued that the gov
crnment's plan to create separate
Michigan peninsular regional system,
with his line as the chief constituent.
would not furnish sufficient earning
capacity of the resulting merger. W.
A. Colston, chief counsel of the New
York, Chicago & St Louis, argued
generally for commission policy to-
wards consolidation which would
give wide latitude and flexibility to
projects originated by arrangements.
