ION TO Pole" Cry Of
The Shenendoah'S Crew
EXPEDITION WILL ATTEMPT TO
CHART 1000, 900 SQUARE
MILES NOW A MYSTERY
BY JOHN THOMAS WILSON

The greatest dirigible in the world,
the Shenandoah (claim based upon
performing alone) rests in her han
gar here, as enthusiastic u. S. Navy
chiefs lovingly direct the work of re-
pair which will make her ready for a
history-making flight this summer. a
trip to the North Pole.
Two weeks ago the proposed flight
was in doubt, as Congress was ques-
ticning the possibilities of success in
such venture Now, however, criti-
cism has disappeared, as a result Of
the unschedhled flight and test of the
great craft in an eight-hour battle with
the terrific 73-mile storm which swept
the Atlantic seaboard.
Every American was thrilled with
the story of that performance. 1t was
triumph complete in rigid dirigible
construction and handling with all
honor to American brains and ability
Charles P. Burgess, of the Aeronau
teal Bureau, civilian who happened
to be, abroad when the Shenandoah
parted from her mooring mast in that
great gale, expressed it all when he
said:
Show me in the history of the seas
where a steamship has gone to sea
in a 73-mile gale with a skeleton
crew smashed bow; two-thirds Of
her steering gear gone; with ballast
compartments stove in, and has come
back to port under her own power.
The Shenandoah did that and in do
ing it removed all doubts regarding
the possibilities Of building and navi
eating dirigible in all kinds of wealth
er and with safety to her crew. This
great test was cheap at the cost of the
slight damage she suffered.

May Claim New
Land for United States

According to the Navy claim, the
trip is not dash for the pole. In
stead, it is simply following the policy
of the Navy to explore. More than one
million square miles west of the pole
remain unexplored and still mystery
If the Navy can clear up this last geo
graphical riddle it will add new
achievement to its list of peaceltime
accomplishments.
Two main approaches are available
to the explorers The Eastern course
via Greenland would be a hop+off of
about 700 miles to the pole. However,
it is likely that the Shenandoah will
take the Western course from Point
Barrow, the northernmost point in

How Shenandoah
RattIed the Storm

The actual damage to the Shenan-
doah in dollars is between $4,000
and 100000, the principal loss being
in the escape Of expensive Helium gas
The ships blunt nose was smashed;
the steel plates covering the Jennings
both fore and aft were ripped away.
The top blade of the vertical rudder
was snapped; the fabric was torn in
three places and gas escaped from
two forward compartments.
Despite these handicaps, imposed
when she was wrenched from the
mooring swivel, within five minutes
after bening tossed crippled into the
raging elements the Shenandoah was
under control, had turned her face

Repairs are being rushed here as

Congressman French (Rep.) of Ida
no, chairman of the House Sub-com-
mittee on Naval Affairs, says:
The Shenandoah accepted about the
most severe test that could be con
ceived and she met it successfully.
Although there is a resolution pending
in the House calling on the Navy for
information as to the reason for the
proposed flight, it is my opinion, that
the unscheduled test of the Shenan-
doah in that great storm will be ac-
copied by Congress as evidence of the
ability of the craft to undertake and
successfully accomplish the polar voy-,

EIGHT CLAIMS IN LUSl-

Washington.-Under an award of

commission, involving only part If the
claims arising from the sinking of the
British liner Lusitania, the German
government must pay approximately
S1,OO0,0OO reparation for losses sus-
tained by Americans through death,
injury, property damage, or otherwise
In that disaster. The decision was
handed down by Judge Edwin Il. Par
ker, umpire of the commission, in fif-
ty-scven cases, representing only the
first group of Lusitania claims.
Eghty-cight separate awards were
made. the amounts in the cases involv-
ing property damage or destruction
carrying 8 per cent interest Il year
dating from May Z, 1915, when the Lu-
sitania was sunk, to the date of pay
ment, and those in the death cases the
same interest dating from Nov. l,
1923, when the commission handed
down its opinion in the case determin-
ing the measure of damages. Forty
claims We're denied in the decision.
In handing down his decision, Judge
Parker made brief statement of the
facts in each case and applied them to
the rules laid down in the Lusitania
opinion OF Nov. /. The case came to
him for decision because of disagree
mcnt between the American commits
sioncr, Chandler Z. Anderson, and the
German commissioner, Wilhelm Kies-
selbach.
In the death cases, according to the
opinion, the basis of damages was not
the value of life lost or the loss
sustained by the estate of the de-
ceased, but the losses to claimants re-
sultng from the death. insofar as
such losses are susceptible of being
measured by pecuniary standards"
In determining the amount of com
pensation for such losses. the umpire
took into the consideration the
amounts (which the decedent, had he
not been killed, would probably have
contributed to the claimant: the pc
cunlary value to such claimant of the
deceased's personal services in claim
ants care, education or supervi-
sion and a reasonable figure for such
mental suffering or shock, if any,
caused by the violent severing of fam
lily ties, as claimant may actually have
sustained by reason of such death"
Mental suffering to form the basis
of recovery the opinion read, must
be real and actual, rather than purely
sentimental and vague"
The principles announced in the
opinion of Nov. !, will be followed in
deciding Lusitania claims, which at
the time of the November decision,
totaled 2TS, involving So ,GoO,OOO. The
commission had dismissed 3,19O claims
| tCtaing about S3i5,O00000 for the re-
Covery of insurance premiums paid by
Americans for protection against war
| hazards on the ground that, under the
| treaty of Berlin, Germany could not
| be held liable "for all losses incident
| to the very existence Of state of
war"
The largest award made was in the
case of Mrs. May Davies Hopkins Gil
mer and May Davies Hopkins. who
We're allowed claims totalng $13O,OOO.
| Elizabeth. Jane Bremmer, awarded
two claims agregating 5000, benefited
