up near the Fugloe Islands, rocky

preached because it is 90 dangerous TO

Officers of the steamer Michael Sars
and the French vessel Durance identi-
fed the float as belonging to the French
naval seaplane Latham, in which
AmundSen rode, with Rene Guilband as
pilot. Comparison Of the float with
photographs Of the plane tended to
confirm the Identification.
Besides Amundsen and Guilbaud the
plane carried Lieut.. Lief Dietrichsen

ing the regular crew Of the plane.

seems inclined to accede to this popular
demand. Probably one reason is that

throughout Europe as clumsy forgery,
The entente in its present form seems
to be largely verbal understanding and

Common belief among the best informed
persons Is that 1t includes the following
projects:
l. Economic agreements to be nego-

Franco-German cartels and partly to
certain arrangements concerning Latin
American and Far Eastern markets.
2. A political understanding whereby
both governments will endeavor so far
as possible TO harmonize their policies
in various parts of the world: for ex-
ample, the Balkans, the Baltic, the
Mediterranean. the Far East and the
Rhtneiand
g. Possible technical defensive ar
