the requirements In the MILITIA Bureau
itself. The letter says that much em-
barrassment has been caused when calls
are made for information which should
be readily available, but which cannot
be furnished because the information
has not arrived In the bureau from the
units.
The bureau says that this condition
Of affairs can and must be rectified. IL
says that IL believes that the main
cause of delay lies in the hands OF COM
pany commanders. and. likewise, the
remedy Is in their hands. It Is added
that unless these conditions become
much improved. more positive action
will be necessary.
However. the bureau says that the
conditions referred TO are not general,
as some States habituaily are prompt In
getting the reports in. but they ara
sufficiently widespread IS TO cause thus
effort to alleviate them.

to superintendent OF Schools Ballou
asking him to authorize the use OF the
school yard at Tenth street and Ver-
mont avenue for the use as q drill held

Gen. Stephan says that II the author

at the expense Of the Guard, It was
necessary TO provide similar means for
the drilling Of the Division Head
quarters and Regimental organizations,
by erecting food lights IN The Mall,

SOUTH'S MOUNTAINS
TIED TO NORTH RANGE
Coal and Sandstone Traced From
Antarctic by DR.. Gould During
Byrd Explorations.

Antarctica's greatest thrill for him
came with the discovery Of sandstone ON
the top of Mount Nansen, DR.. Laurence
M. Gould, second in command OF the
Byrd Expedition, told members Of the
National Geographic Society Friday
night in an address at the washington
Auditorium DIR. Gould's talk opened
the Winter series Of lectures Of the So
ciety. He was introduced by DR.. Gilbert
Grosvenor, president.
The discovery Of sandstone was I'M
portant, DR.. Gould explained, because
it showed the kinship of Mount Nan.
sen and its fellows with mountains huin-
dreds Of miles away and made 1t pos
sible for biologists to understand the
broad outlines Of Antarctica's geology.
The finding in the sandstone Of an OUT
crop of coal was another epoch-making
event In the expeditions work, he de-
clared: It is now believed that Ant
arctica's coal deposits underlie an area
that may reach 100000 square miles
in extent.
His night to the Rockefeller Noun
taiIls toward the end Of the first SUM
mer threatened to end in q tragedy
plane, leaving DR.. Gould and hts two
companions 140 miles from base, with
no means Of transportation and q
broken radio. fortunately a brief in
terval OF sunshine before the storm had
made possible the determination Of the
latitude and longitude Of their camp,
and this information had been radi0ed
to Comdr. Byrd before communication
was broken. Eleven days later the party
was rescued by airplane.
On Mount Betty, near the foot of
Axel Heiberg Glacier, while on q 1000
mile dog trip, DR.. Gould and his COM
panions discovered Q eairn erected by
Amundsen IS years before. In It they
found supplies and q notation by
Amundsen which was brought back TO
the United States. When the Gould
party prepared to turn back toward
Little America they built another caiTn
near that of Amundsen and deposited In
It quantity of surplus supplies. When
the expedition began its homeward
march it had only Fl dogs instead Of
the As with which It had set out orig
inally. Although q blizzard was en-
countered not one of the supply sta
tions was missed during the rapid dash
back to base.
