Naval officers who inspected the

the doomed men might have re-

scene Of the crash between the sub

Paulding on December II, last, and
there were several inches of water
over them.
Only Small Hole in Sub
One of the surprising features Of
the drydocking was the revelation of
how small hole the Paulding had
cut through the hull of the SUBJ
marine. Three feet of the Pauld-
ing's keel bottom projected through
the inner hull of the S-4's battery
room. The opening on the outside
of the craft was about eight feet
long and only three feet high. The
inside hole was but two and half
feet long and foot high.
The delicate machinery of the
ship was destroyed by long INNER

filled with debris and silt.

North Dakota Voters to Indicate
Their Presidential Choice TOddu
L ow d N, Republican, and
Smith, Democrat-COntests
ed-COntests Are For Ma
tional Committeeman in
Both Parties and Electors
and Delegates in Republican
Party

Bright clear weather prevailed
throughout North Dakota today US
voters of the state went to the polls
to cast their votes in the presiden.
tial preferential primary.
Weather conditions were being
counted on to help swell the total
of votes cast although prospects
were that the vote would be light
in all but few counties.
Frank 0. w. Lowden of Illinois is
without opposition for the Repub.
lican presidential preference and
Governor Alfred E. Smith Of New
York is unopposed on the Democratic
ticket.
This will give Lowden 13 votes
in the Republican national conven.
tion and Smith 10 in the Democratic
gathering. The North Dakota law
makes no provision for q second
choice vote for president.
Principal interest centers in the
perennial contest between the Inde.
pendent and Nonpartisan Repub.
licans for convention delegates and
presidential electors, each group hav.
ing placed full ticket in the field
Both factions are committed to Low
den.
The Democrats have a full ticket
but it is unopposed, except for ma
tional committeeman. Township
eleetions throughout the state are
expected to help bring out the vote
in the rural districts, while city
elections will increase the number
of ballots cast in some cities.
Morton county is voting on bond
issue Of 100000 for road building
and a relatively large vote is expect
ed there.
Little interest was manifest in
the precampaign activities, although
there was the usual spirited fight
between the two factions Of the Re-

EIELSON AND
WILKINS REACH
POINT BARROW
Aviators Are One Step Nearer
Exploration of Arctic
Blind Spot

Seward, Alaska, March 2O.-tP--
Exploration of the Arctic "blind
spot" by Captain H. Wilkins was a
step nearer today after completion
-ef his flight. from Fairbanks to
Point Barrow, Alaska, first hop on
contemplated flight to Spitzbergen
on the other side of the north pole
from Barrow.
An almost continuous radio COM
munication kept the United States
Signal Corps here in touch with
Wilkins throughout his hazardous
flight over 500 miles Of Arctic waste
between Fairbanks and Barrow yes
terday. With Lieut.. Carl Ben Eiel-
son Of Hatton, N. d., handling the
planes controls, wilkins operated
the short wave radio.
Radio messages described the
trip over the high Endicott noun
tain range and over the barren
tundra. Leaving Fairbanks at 1925
q. M, the flyers were over the Endi-
colt range at an altitude of 10000
feet about 2 o'clock. Wilkins
messaged that it was "a bit cold up
here" as they passed over the range.
A half hour later they were over
the tundra and into the usual fog
at that altitude. At 4:1O they
passed through a "bad storm and
just 10 minutes later sighted Point
Barrow.
From Point Barrow, wilkins
plans to make his third attempt to
learn If the tabled Arctic continent
really exists. He plans q z,1OO- mile
flight to Spitzbergen, heading in a
great semicircle over hundreds Of
miles Of unexplored regions. Two
Of Wilkins previous attempts to ex-
plore the region were unsuccessful
because of atmospheric conditions
and machine trouble.
