President Will DO All He
Can to Bring Victory
to Republicans.
MAY SPEAK IN EAST
Dr.. Work Visits Vacation
Camp to Present His
Resignation.
BY ROBERT MOOREFIELD
United Press staff Correspondent

SUPERIOR, Wis, July 5.-Presi-
dent Coolidge will do everything he
can" toward making Herbert Hoover
his successor in the White House.
The Republican party had that
assurance today from the chief eX-
ecutive after his first major political
conference at Cedar Island lodge.
Mr.. Coolidges willingness to par
ticipate in the Hoover-CurtiS cam
paign was expressed to DR.. Hubert
Work, chairman of the Republican
national committee, who will direct
the campaign.
DR.. Work, who submitted his res
ignation as secretary of the interior
yesterday, said before leaving here
lat night that the President would
make his own choice as to the man
ner in which he will assist the party.
That phase of the subject was not
discussed in detail, DR.. Work said.
May Speak in East
Plans we're made recently, it was
understood, to ask Mr.. Coolidge to
speak in behalf of the ticket in
Eastern States, but DR.. Work said
the President had not given def
mite consent.
The retiring cabinet member said
he would confer with Republican
leaders in Chicago today on ar
rangements for establishing the
western campaign headquarters
there, and then will leave for Wash
ington.
Mr.. Coolidge, meanwhile, is with
holding acceptance Of Works resig-
nation. Presumably until his sue
cessor is named.
Discussing the coming campaign,
national committee chairman
said the Republican procedure
would be quite, dignif1ed, construc-
tive and educational"
Active campaigning, he asserted,
would get under way not later than
Sept. 1, with Secretary Hoover, the
nominee, confining his speeches to
sne radio.
Wants Good as Manager
Dr. Work made no recommenda-
ton to the President on the new
secretary of Interior, but requested
that he be relieved of the post as
soon as possible, that he may de-
vote his full time to the campaign.
Just now he is trying to persuade
James w. Good of Chicago,
Hoover's pre-convention manager,
to take charge of the western
headquarters. Good has withheld
his consent because he fears the
duties would make too great a de-
inand on his time.
DR.. Work has given no thought,
he said, to selection of the eastern
manager.

VIRGO BAY. Spitzbergen, July
3.-The Russian icebreaker Krassin,
breaking path through the
jammed ice, can not reach the six
marooned men at the Italia ice
camp for several days, her COM
mander radioed today.
Now beyond Soresby Island, off
Cape Leigh Smith, Northeastland,
the Krassin has encountered pack
ice which is blocking her progress.
She is attempting to reach open
water near the coast, where she
would be compelled to steam slowly
on account of the numerous reefs.
Charts marking these reefs are
faulty.
A heavy fog hung over the
Arctic today, making airplane
search for twenty-four men trapped
within the ice-bound wastes, almost
impossible.
Russian Filler Missing
There was no word of Babushkin,
the Russian flier who started Friday
W,ch two companions to search for
the men.
There is no word of Roland
Amundsen and the five members OF

There is no word of three men
who started walking from the Mobile
crew towards safety.
Three dog teams are searching
for them and one seaplane Monday
got into contact with one Of the dog
teams, but apparently learned moth
ing of the fate Of the three men.
There is no word of the fate of six
men who hoated away with the en-
( velope of the polar dirigible Italia.
The envelope was last seen, pillar
of smoke floating from it, heading
into the east from the point where
General Mobile and his men landed.
Three New Relief Parties
Three new relief expeditions were
promised today from three nations.
Norway asked Great Britain for two
moth planes that might be used in
ice landings. Britain agreed. Ger
many offered a two-seater plane
equipped with skis which will be
flown by the prominent German
aviator Udet. The seventh Swedish
expedition was expected to start
into the north Immediately.
The supply ship Citta Di Nlilano
advised she again had been in COM
munication with the group headed
by Lieutenant Viglieri, on the ice
foe and that there was a more
hopeful tone to the messages that
came out of the northland.
The message from the marooned
men indicated that the summer sea-
son had set in on the ice island and
that the ice had become somewhat
musny for the swift heavy planes
to light successfully on the ice.
Fail to Land at Camp
Meanwhile the ship advised that
Swedish hydroplanes had circled in
an attempt to land at the camp
but had been unsuccessful owing to
the fog.
The steamer Braganza, operating
of Northeastland, but which had
been impeded by breaking ice, has
returned here with Capt. H. Riser
Larsen and Lieut.. Luetzow- Holm
aboard.
The two fliers will transfer to the
steamer Hobby to cooperate with
that vessel in the search for
Amundsen. The Braganza will pro-
ceed to Kings Bay to get supplies
and to repair one engine.
