By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
LAKEHCRST, n. j., January sl.---
Complete denial that there is any
friction among the officers of the
naval air station here over the flight
of the Shenandoah to the north pole
was made last night by Capt. Frank
+. McCrary. commandant at the sta
tion, and present commander of the
giant dirigible. which will make the
flight next summer. His denial came
in response to circulated rumors that
all was not we'll among the officers
and personnel at the station over the
flight.
When asked whether he expected
to make the flight himself and
whether he expected to command the
Shenandoah, Capt. McCrary replied:
Il am going to make that north
pole flight. Whether or not I am in
command will lie with the Secretary
Of the Navy"
Fully ten thousand persons yester-
day filed through the great shed
housing the airship. The ship, rest
ing upon supporting posts. is ready
for a temporary dismantling begin
ming tomorrow, preparatory to ex-
tensive repairs made necessary by
her stormy voyage of last Wednesday
night.

APPEAL FOR LOYALTY
BY IRISH FREE STATE
Government Sees Plea for Funds
Abroad to Aid Distress Backed
by Disunion Elements.
By the Associated Press.

! By the Associated Press
| DUBLIN, January 21.-The Irish
Free State government looks with
confidence to the Irish abroad to ab-
stain from supporting by sympathy
or subscriptions of funds any ele-
| ments Of disruption or disunion which
still may exist. according to President
Cosgrave. who has issued a statement
in consequence OF the appeal made in
the United States and Australia by
the supporters Of Eamonn de Valera.
Mr.. Cosgrave says that ostensibly
the funds solicited by the opponents
of the Free State government are for
the. purpose of relieving distress in
Ireland. particularly among the de-
tional government. Inquiries. he de-
clares, have reached him from abroad
asking If the appeal is necessary and
| if 1T is approved by the Free State
authorities.
! Mr.. Cosgrave's view is that the an
peal is unnecessary, and that govern
ment approval will not be forthcom-
| ing because the so-called Irish re-
publican prisoners dependents fund"
Is ,ion mueh and more anv an thrreEular institu.
would be translated by irregular
| propagandists into evidence of hos
| tility toward the established govern
ment.
According to Mr.. Cosgrave the or
ganization which Is issuing the an
peal was started during the Anglo
Irish war, and was seized upon nv
| the irregulars at the outbreak Of civil
, strife as a cloak for furtherinE ir-
regular propaganda and activities
| throughout the entire campaign OF
destruction.
, The number of prisoners in the eoy-
ernment's hands, according to Mr..
Cosgrave, has been exaggerated. On
June l nearly $4,000 were informed.
This number was reduced December
| 3 last to about 1900.
