surface. Lundborg, however. with a
ship equipped with skis and by means
Of superdisplay Of airmanship. brought
his plane down safely and succeeded in
arising again with the injured leader
of the expedition. whom he had been
instructed to bring back to direct the
work of rescue. Gen. Mobile. true to
instinct, desired to stay with his men,
but the practical aspects Of the situa-
ton appealed to him and he reluctantly
consented to return. Lundborg, not
satisfied with the performance of this
magnificent feat, attempted to rescue
the other members Of the Italias crew,
but crashed In the landing, and is now
marooned with them on the ice foe,
which is reported to be rapidly break
ing up.
Despite this strange sequence Of mis-
fortunes, 1t is devoutly to be hoped that
all Of the courageous souls who are
now hemmed in by the seemingly inn
penetrable Arctic waters will eventually
be rescued. or course, there is less
chance for the three men who started
afoot and the seven who drifted away
on the wreck of the Italia, but all are
accustomed to the rigorous Arctic and
may be able to survive until found.
For the remainder of the crew and
Capt Amundsen hope appears to be
bright. Their location is definitely
known, while Amundsen is one Of the
most resourceful explorers who have
ever endured the polar cold.
The rescue work will 60 on. Brave
deeds will be accomplished. And the
world waits with bated breath to greet
and congratulate those who risked their
lives for scientific research, and those
who. with selfiess heroism, struck out to
get them.

the whole German force was killed,
wounded or captured. Seven hundred
were killed. at least q hundred wounded
and prisoners so far brought In total
$50, Fifty machine guns were taken
and the victory couldn't have been
more complete. The captured
ground was the seat of many German
machine gun nests which harassed the
American positions and our men were
determined to capture 1t. For IS hours
American gunners poured a devastating
rain of steel on the enemy and then
went forward to dashing victory /"

many cases drag on endleSsly, that
dockets are perennially clogged and
that such conditions work an uneces-

The reasons for this situation are only
too familiar. In clearing Its docket,
the Supreme Court of the United States

many insisted could not be done. be-

possible, pending reorganization and
modernization of the entire judicial
system. What the highest court in the
land has accomplished is challenge to

A vivid story of hardship and hero

able to read this thrilling narrative OF
the heroic deeds that are daily taking
place in the Far North, but for the
present 1t must be satisfied with meager
news OF the struggle OF the Italia's
