BYRD DESCRIBES
FLIGHT TO POLE
Remarkable Movies Taken at
"Top of World" Shown to
Geographic Society.

Mans first trip to the top Of the
ago, was described for members OF
the National Geographic Society last
night by Comdr. Richard f. Byrd in
an address at the Washington Audi
torium. In the audience were mum
Der of Washington men who accom-
pa MED Comdr. Byrd TO Spitzbergen,
He paid tribute to their spirit and
work in making the flight possible.
There were many hsrdships to he
overcome. Comdr. Byrd told his su
dience, and on more than one occs
sion accidents and unexpected diff
culties almost wrecked the expedition.
The first was the discovery that the
only wharf at SpitzberEen was mo-
nopolized by a Norwegian gunboat.
which would not permit the Byrd ship
to come alongside. At the risk Of los
ing it's plane. the expedition took the
heavy machine 10 shore on an i'm
provised raft through water filed with
moving ice cakes.
Landing Gear Broken.
In It's tryouts the plane ran into a
snow bank. breaking its landing gear.
The take-off for the Pole was made on
improvised and relatively weak skis.
which would have been quickly de-
nolished In a forced landing on the
rough Arctic ice. Finally. as Comdr.
Byrd and his flight companion, Floyd
Bennett. approached the Pole they dis
covered that there was a bad oil leak
from one of their three engines. They
expected the engine to stop at any
moment Fortunately the leak was
not in the bottom of the oil tank and
a sufficient amount remained 10 per
NIT the engine to operate until the
plane returned to Spitzbergen.
Scientific instruments and methods
PLAYED an important part in the sue
cess of the polar flight. Comdr. Byrd
declared. Among the invaluable in
struments, he said, were the sun
compass. invented especially for
polsr flying by Albert Bumstead of
the National Geographic Society, and
the drift indicator and bubble sextant
furnished by the Navy. The metero.
logical observations were also of great
help.
No Land Sighted.
At the Pole, where the flyers were
half a mile high. they could see for
40 miles in every direction. No land
was seen there or during the flights
between Spitzbergen and the Pole.
The Ice at the Pole was thrown into
pressure ridges 30 feet high, Comdr.
Byrd said, showing conciusively that
this is region of open sea. He esti-
mated the thickness of the polar ice
to be between 80 and 40 feet.
When the flyers had circled the
Pole several times and were ready
TO start on their return journey they
realized that their lives depended on
the accuracy of their navigation. All
directions from the North Pole are
south, but only one south line would
take them back to the small island
where their companions and supplies
awaited them. With their special
instruments tkey figured the line 80
accurately that no deviation was
necessary.
Remarkable motion pictures. some
taken by Comdr. Byrd over the Pole.

FORD ATTACkSPL
IN SUIT FOR $1,oOO,O
Counsel Dispute Parts Of Bill Filed
in Libel Action Brought
by Sapiro.
BY the Associated Press.

DETROIT, March Federal
Judge Fred NJ. Raymond yesterday
took under advisement a motion of
counsel for Henry Ford to strike out
certain paragraphs of the plea of
Aaron Sapiro. agricultural economist
of Chicago. in his pending $1,000
600 libel suit against the automobile
manufacturer. The suit, which Is
scheduled to begin next Monday, is
directed against Ford and the Dear
born Publishing Company, publishers
of the Dearborn Independent.
The suit. which was filed more
than a year ago, was based on ar
ticles in the Dearborn Independent
criticizing Sapiro for his actions as
attorney for cooperative wheat mar
keting organizations.
Yesterdays motion was based on
the assertion that the disputed sec
tons of the plea are irrelevant and
in some cases repetitions of the arti-
cles over which the suit originated.
Senator James A. Reed, head of the
Ford counsel. attended the hearing,
but left for Washington late yester-
day. Judge Robert b. Marx of Gin
cinnati one of the Sapiro counsel,
also was present.
Defense counsel told the court they
will produce ESQ witnesses and 1t
was indicated the plaintiff will pro-
duce nearly the same number.
