NO GOOD NEWS

The old saying that no news is good
news does not apply to exploring par
ties about the North Pole. People gen
orally have been pessimlstic about
Amundsen's airplane EXPEDITION since
two days after his leaving, though it
seems he gave Instructions for sys-
lem OF following up that should not
begin under two weeks. But there
have been so many fruitless cXpedi-
tons and such great human toll pad
n these explorations, that few outside
OF Amundsen and his party were very
hopeful of success. These few are ex
per;enced explorers themselves and
they advance a number of plausible
turns the expedition might take, as
governed by weather or landing con-
ditions near the pole, AMI the possible
return by foot Or in another direction
different and slower than the outgoing
trip was to be. Amundsen knew as
we'll as any other. the difficulties he
might meet and must have planned
for MANY emergencies.

A Model Factory.
Immediately upon taking charge
OF the largest and most sanitary
and immaculate ice cream factory in
the world at First and M streets
northeast, the new management de-
cided to bring the plant right up
to date and modernize every branch
and detail Of it. The plant has
always been a model of its kind and
has been visited by many ice cream
makers from various parts of the
country. who were universal in
their enthusiasm over its perfec-
ton. However. the ice cream bust
ness, particularly the manufacturing
end, frequently undergoes charges
by reason Of the perfection and
adoption OF bigger and better ma
chinery and the new Chapin-Sacks
management decided to adopt the
latest possible equipment.
The result was the expenditure
OF more than half million dollars
for new machinery and a general
remodeling OF the various branches
OF tie gigantic plant. For many
weeks new machinery arrived at the
plant and was installed without in
terruption to business. Practically
als the machinery replaced was as
good as when new, but it was of
another day and had to give way
to apparatus OF later model.
Large. corps of machinists, car
penters. painters and other artisans
have been at work at the plant
completing the remodeling. yhefe-
fore, the expression, "A New Com
pany." is amply borne out by the
facts.
New Quality Produced.
Along with the reorganization of
the company and remodeling Of the
plant came "A New Product" and
~ New Quality" because the new
management decided that "The
Velvet Kind" must be absolutely the
best and purest ice cream in the

 Indications are strong that at last the troubled continent is entering up on a period which should give solu- tions for most of her remaining prob. lens.
 Three major movements are intend ed to better her international rela- tions in the immediate future, the first being the negotiations for Rhine Compact; secondly, deliberations of the Sixth Assembly of the League of Nations, and thirdly, the debt conver- sations, which promise to settle that knotty source of trouble.

COMMANDER RODGERS TELLS OF FLIGHT ACROSS THE PACIFIC; SHORT
 BIOGRAPHY OF AVIATORS GIVEN

HONOLULU, Sept 12. (P)-The fly CTS arrived aboard the destroyer Mac Donough, completing the San Francis co-Pearl Harbor journey.
 Rodgers, in an official statement, said:
 When we left San Francisco the wind was light, from the Northwest, gradually hauling to the North. We navigated entirely by dead reckoning, no attention being given to radio bear ings Our flight took us close to the clouds, our engines working perfect ly, with no signs of leaks or trouble. The wind gradually changed to the Northeast at six hundred miles out of San Francisco, but was much light CT than we had hoped for.
 ''In the morning it was evident the gasoline supply was running short and it was doubtful whether we would reach Kahului, due to the absence of favorable winds, upon which we de pended to help us on our journey.
 About noon we decided the gasoline supply would carry us midway be- tween Aroostook and Tanager, so we decided to land at Aroostook and re- fuel. From there we would takeoff for Honolulu.
 we received radio bearings short ly after noon and changed our course accordingly. AS we approached Aroo- stock it became evident that We would not reach the place, so I decided to write a message giving some clue of our whereabouts. Just then the gaso- line gave out, Lieutenant COnnel mak- ing a beautiful landing in the heavy swells.
 "As we couldn't use our radio we determined our position about fifty miles north of Aroostook. We rigged up our radio antenna and received all messages in the air but could send none. The plane sailed beautifully be- fore the wind, making about fifty miles a day We cut fabric from the lower wings and rigged a foresail hoping to make Oahu. Weather condi tions were moderate, although that af ternoon the seas were high. Our only concern was water, as the supply we had was small, and our emergency ra tions would only last us a few days We managed to get our small still going on the sixth day with wood from the lower wings. The still would distill canteen and a half in five hours, and with the catching of two gallons of water during heavy rain we managed to survive. The water in the radiator was undrinkable, due to solution to prevent leakage. Con sequently we were in very good condi tion when we arrived at NawiliWili
 "The outstanding feature of the triI although we failed to set any time rec ords either in the air or on water, was the fact that the great plane PIN was lcapable of maintaining itself on the surface of the water during ordinary weather, indefinitely"
