ANYBODY: as conqueror of the Atlantic
and the North Pole he accomplished
unforgettable deeds and as man OF
40 he never gave any reason to regard
him as a man with lack OF reliability
or with with too much imagination"
The Boersen Courier then quotes
dispatch that Comdr. Byrd never said
he found mountains near the South
Pole and continues:
Jealousy Is Suggested.
"Some of Mai. Grams remarks show
that besides nationalistic jealousy there
is also the jealousy of the old type OF
polar explorer of the modern flying ex-
plorer. Only an examination OF Comdr.
Byrds own reports will decide the
issue.
until then let us hope that the
world will be saved from an especially
bitter disappointment"
The Radical Welt Am Abend refrains
from entering the controversy, but pays
highest tribute to Comdr. Byrd, saying:
1T is remarkable how a man OF 40
years is alert enough to undertake such
| strenuous and nerve-Wrecking endur-
ance flights under the most difficult
weather conditions

Of view regarding Norway's claim to

There can be no question that

place as Byrd described it. Grams
doubts are not sufficient to accuse of
untruthfulness a man hitherto accepted
as a serious explorer"

BRITISH EXPLORERS
SCORE BYRD CRITIC
ShackIeton Aide Says Noun
tainS Have Been Named
and Measured.

BY Radio to The Star and the New York
Times.
LONDON, December 1.-Two British
explorers yesterday came to Comdr
Byrd's defense against the criticisms
of Maj. Tryggve Gran, the Norwegian
explorer, regarding the flight over the
South Pole.
Capt. R. G.. England, who commanded
the Nimrod on Sir Ernest Shackleton's S
first Antarctic exp dition in 1907 and
who was on the relief ship Mornings S
voyage to Discovery Inlet in 10000.
described Maj. Grams statements as
shocking"
'I cannot understand his statements -
Capt. England declared. ut is all the
more extraordinary because Mai. Gran
was one of Capt. Scott's men, It would
be nothing short of a miracle If Capt.
Scott'S men did not see mountains near
the South Pole.
Says Peaks Are There.
"On the eastward there is the Queen
Alexander Range. $4,000 feet in height,
and on the westward is the Queen
Maud Range. about the same height.
B7tween the ranges there is the King
Edward Plateau, which is the only plain
near. Maj. Gran can have no reason
to throw doubt upon the existence of
the ranges.
"As Comdr. Byrd said, the mountains
must be terrible, especially to an air.
man who has to fly over th7m. The trip
certainly could not be made by motor
cycle. as Maj. Gran suggests. Those
mountains actually have been surveyed
named and measured"
Further Facts on the Mountains.
Capt William Colbeck a member of
the Southern Cross expedition in 1893
30, said that though Maj. Gran jumped
tn conclusions before he was able to
obtain full facts, it was "well known
fact that there are mountains near the
South Pole"
''I saw them from the Morning in
1908" he continued. "Comdr. Byrd
rould probably see them from hundred
miles away. because of his height in an
airplane. His flight was magnificent
Nothing is more possible than that
Scott's and Arnundsen's cairns are still
so we'll preserved as to be visible from
the air against the snow-white plain.
"Comdr. Byrd is doing great work
and avoiding mistakes which were in
evitable on the pioneer expeditions"
CAS- pointed out in yesterdays issue
of The Star, quoting the New York
Times, Comdr. Byrd has not reported
sen and has reported mountains as far
south as between 86 and 81 degrees, be-
yond which he characterized the terrain
as an almost limitless plateau" Maj.
Gran was. therefore, correct in aSsum-
ing that there were no mountains south
OF 86 degrees.)

GERMAN PRESS is NEUTRAL.
Berlin Papers Try to Be Just to Byrd
and Mai. Gran.


By Radio to The Star and New York Times.
BERLIN, December 4.-The criticisms
made by Maj. Tryggve Gran, the Nor
wegian explorer, of Comdr. Byrd's flight
over the South Pole, based upon the
majors impressions of reports reaching
him, have provoked wide comment in
the German press.
The newspapers here, however, are
very cautious in their expressions today
and are trying to be just to both Comdr.
Byrd and Maj. Gran. The B. e. Am
Mittag says:
Much as we recognize Mai. Grams
authority on this subject, the more
careful we are regarding his -exclama-
tions. 1t is certainly quite possible that
Comdr. Byrd did not fly across the
Pole. The difficulty of fixing exact
spots from an airplane is known, and
a final decision can be made only after
Comdr. Byrd's logbook and instruments
have been examined.
Byrd's Reliability Is Cited.
"On the other hand, one knows that
Comdr. Byrd is a reliable, serious
character who in all of his previous
expeditions has abstained from sensa-
tional effects. Comdr Byrd's flight over
the North Pole, too, was at first ques-
toned. but proved later correct. Comdr.
BYRD intentionally zlgZagged around the
Pole in view of the difficulty of deter
mining exact spotS.'
maj. Gran told the New York Times
correspondent in Copenhagen that the
doubt of Comdr. Byrd's flying over the
South Pole, credited to him in an
earlier interview, was due to a mis-
understanding, and added: I'm my
opinion there is not the slightest doubt
that Comdr. Byrd few over the Pole y

The Boersen Courier says:

must remember the ugly fight between
Cook and Peary.

ANNIVERSARY SERVICES AT
FOURTH BAPTIST

Beginning Sunday, June 2nd, at
11:3O A. NJ, and ending Friday, June
7th, the Fourth Baptist Church (2Sth
and "P" Sts.), will celebrate the first
anniversary of its pastor, DR.. F. w.
Williams, D. D. Excellent speakers
and singers have been secured to
serve on this occasion.
Sunday, at 1870 A. NJ, DR.. w. H.
Stokes, pastor of Ebenezer Baptist
Church and his choir, are to be fea-
tured; at $3.50 P. NJ. Rev. A. NJ. Kent,
of First Baptist, Washington Park,
and the Junior Missionary Choir of
Fourth Baptist; at P. NJ, Rev. c.
A. Cobbs, Of Mt. Calvary Church, and
his choir; Monday night, Rev. A. B.
Smith, pastor of Asbury Methodist
Church, will be heard and the choir of
Mt. Tabor Baptist Church will fur
sh music; Tuesday. Rev. A. W.
Brown, Sixth Mount Zion and his
choir; wednesday Rev F. w. Black
of Mt. Carmel Baptist Church and his
choir; Thursday. Rev. l. H. Hines, of
31st Street Baptist Church, and his
choir; Friday, Rev. o. B. Simms, of
Rising Mt. Zion. and his choir.
The public is invited to all of these
services. The members and friends of
the church feel that this will prove to
be, not only an ordinary anniversary
of the able Dr. Williams, or financial
rally for the church, but it will prove
the strong sentiment the public has
for pastor and church. This has been
demonstrated at every regular or spe-
cial service had at the church during
the past year, and especially during
the recent revival when about 100
were happily regenerated. But this
and other successful programs will be
climaxed by the coming anniversary
services of praise and thanksgiving.
DR.. Williams urges that this be
rally for new members, that those liv-
ing in the community away from the
home church, will become affiliated
with the Fourth Bantist Church of
Richmond.
