Resume of Flight Details

Other information learned in con ncction with the flight of the Norge from Spitzbergen to it's final grave yard at Teller is: The Norge land cd at Teller about D. m. after cir cling in that vicinity for probably two hours an a half, heinz Fl hours in the air Preparatory to landing it dropped an anchor and one of the crew descended to supervise the landing, when the dirigible was first sighted at Teller it was plainly seen coming from around Cape Spencer heading towards Teller. the ship flew over the town a couple of times and was then seen to rise to higher altitude and go back over the sea, it was gone fO" q consider able length of time before it return ed again. Finally the anchor was seen hanging from the ship in mid air and numerous persons realized that the ship was going to make a landing on the ice of Grantley har- bor. two Teller men ran out and when anchor hit the ice they jump ed on top of 1t and others grabbed ropes and soon the dirigible was safely anchored. Then the men aboard began to pour out of the ship onto the lee,
 The crew of IS men were soon slumbering in their beds which were provided by the good people of Teller. The following morning the crew immediately started in to dismanile the dirigible for ship mcnt to the states via steamer this summer. After the men have com pleted their work of packing they will come to Nome to await trans portation back to their homes.
 The dirigible left Spit2bergen s:55 Tuesday night May 11th and reached the Pole two thirty follow ing morning. the engines were slow ed down and the dirigihle descended to n low altitude over ice and Nor wegian, Italian and American citi- aens aboard dropped the Americaa Norwegian and Italian flags which were attached to the top of metal spikes stuck upwards in the ice go that the flags futtered over and around inc North Pole. At seven in the morning we ran into heavy fog and at eight fifteen made out land which after was found to be Paint Barrow, Alaska. on our port bow, after which course was set over Bering Sea. No land is re- ported to have been found enrOute. Orders were given. it is understood to the navigator. to steer toward land whenever 1t appeared in quick est possible time. probably they be- lieved themselves in danger and that it was thought best to imWe diately anchor at Teller. for that reason,
 The defation at Teller took only about half an hour. The crew were very tired on. arrival although in good shape physically. Capt. Wist- 1. ing and Capt. ,Amundsen are the on ly two men in the world to have been over both the South and North

GAS TAX MOVEMENT GROWS

A circular showing the growth
of the gasoline tax movement has
been issued by the Vermont State
Chamber of Commerce. In 1919
three states had a 1 cent tax and
in 1920 there wer four states. This
increased to 13 states in 1921 and
10 in 1922, but the average tax
remained at a little more than 1
cent. In 1923 and 1924, So
states had gas tax, the average
tax being 1.8 in 1923, 2.1 in
1924. Forty-four states have
had gas tax since 1925, the av-
erage last year being 2.56 cents
and this year 2.688 cents per gal
lon..
The voters of Montana decided
at the last election to increase the
rate from 2 to 8 cents. This will
make twenty-five states which have
a higher tax than Minnesota.
