The youths, Leonard Rich. 81; Emer-

we hear q great deal OF discussion

dress. about the transportation Of
the future and about the relationship
Of waterways. motor bus. motor truck
and even the airplane as transporta-
ton agencies. The answer to all these
transportation problems and the future
Of the railways lies in the adequacy
Of tho transportation furnished and
the satisfaction Of the public with such
transportation. Furthermore. 1t lies
in the inherent and continuing dispo-
sition to keep pulling yourselves UP BY
your bootstrape: in other wards to
get 4 greater efiictency and a greater
economy continually and all the time
in the operation OF the railroads.
''Deman nds for better and more ade-
quate service. and particularly for

years and will become more accen-
tuated in the future as competition re-

By Wireless to The star.
PARIS. June 9.--Owing to the
critical illness Of the Norwegian eng,-
neer. Daniel G. Martens. who design
ed and was supervising the construc-
ti,n of special tractors for the
French. the polar expedition has been
obliged to modify its plans.
Lieut.. Darcis today. however, d.
vuleed his new program. which In
some particulars Is more elaborate
than the previous.
Instead of leaving France at the
end Of this month. as he originally
intended, for an immediate crossing
OF the polar ice. Lieut. Darcis and
score of companions will start about
the end of August and Will spend the
Winter in the northernmost prac.
r1eable point of SpitZbergen, prob.
ably on Danes Island.
Begin Trip in March.
from that point he will commence
hts two months journey at the Arctic
daybreak in March. He will he busy
throughout the Winter months max
ing scientific observations and testing
his equipment. which not only in
Cludes motor sledges but two hydro
airpla mes.
The members Of the expedition are
they believe the Winters experience
at Spitzbergen will provide valuable
training for the transpolar trip and
make success more certain by pro-
viding more time for preparation at
the SpitZbergen base.
Lieut.. Darcis declared that prepara.
tions are advancing rapidly. The
tractors which will be adopted in the
place of the Martens type are of
caterpillar variety, and the construc-
tor has promised delivery before the
end of August.
HydropIanes Soon Ready.
The hydropla mes will be delivered in
the next few weeks, and other ma
terials, including food supplies for
nearly year. are already gathered
together at Dunkirk, where a Nor
wegian icebreaker has been chartered
for the voyage.
The expedition will he equipped with
short. wireless capable of com
municating direct TO Europe and
America.
Asked whether Amundsen's report
that no land had been seen had af-
fected the expeditions hopes, Lieut..
Darcis replied:
Not the slightest. In the hrst
place, the fact that Amundsen saw
no land proves nothing. as when n.y.
ing at high attitudes the snow-covered
land would be indistinguishable from
the surrounding ice fields. Further
more. Amundsen was in fog part CT
the way and might have passed over
land during that time.
Moreover. Amundsen could survey
only a narrow strip. while we can
make soundings all along the route
and modify our course accordingly IL

Funk Also Defeated
Northern Illinois went almost
solidly for Smith with large major.
tiles, while southern Illinois coun.
ties were divided, with Smith more
than holding his own.
George r. Brennan was named
for the Senate by the Democrats.
Only one upset in the races made
by present Representatives for re-
nomination is shown by returns.
In the Seventeenth District, Judge
Homer Hall, Republican. was NOM
mated over Representative Frank
Fl. Funk, Mckinley supporter, by
a plurality Of 1000.
Senator Lenroot declined to com
ment today, either on McKinley's
defeat. or his own political fortunes.
Friends Of the court. however,
were unwilling to concede that Nc
Kinley's defeat was due entirely to
the court issue. Most of them
like Lenroot, declined to be quoted,
but privately they asserted Smiths
victory could be ascribed to a num-
Der OF collateral issues--the bitter
ness of the Republican factional
struggle in Illinois for control of
Cook county and Smiths organiza-
ton and popularity.
Democratic leaders, not so much
concerned as the Republicans over
the World Court angle, were specu-
lating today on the possibility of
George Brennan, the Democratic
boss" of Chicago, defeating Smith
in November.
AS between Smith and Brennan,
the issue will not be the court, but
prohibition.
The nomination Of Brennan by
the Democrats, to oppose Smith at
the November general elections. as.
sures q wet and dry referendum in
Illinois this fall.
Smith is dry and has been
indorsed by the Anti-saloon League.
Brennan made his campaign on his
advocacy Of modification Of the
prohibition laws.
In many districts there were no
contests, particularly on the Dem
ocratic side and 1t is highly prob
able that all Of the incumbents will
be renominated when final returns
are in.
