noon III the IreaQWell- ukOn COm- pany's plane, piloted by Everett L. Wasson, and Guide Joe Walsh. Pilot Burke's body was inferred by his associates at the scene of his death. The remains will probably be brought here in the near fu- ture.
 Kading and Marten are in good condition except they are weak from lack of food. Marten has two slightly frozen toes. Kading suffered frost-bitten hand. The only food the party had was what they could shoot and hunting was poor.
 Snow Storm
 Pilot Burke encountered a snow storm after leaving Liard Post Oc- tober Il for Atlin. He doubled back hoping to reach Wolfe Lake but was forced down in murky weather at the headwaters of the Liard.
 Pilot Burke took off again the same day but was forced to re- turn, because of weather cdndi- tions. He damaged his pontoons making the second landing but the plane was otherwise unhurt.
 Burke. Kading and Marten camp ed six days at he plane. They attempted to shoot game but with little success.
 Growing Weak
 Weak from lack of food, the three started out October IT for Wolfe Lake, after having carved a message on a tree stating that they were bound for Wolfe Lake and that they were short of pro- visions.
 Deep snow and cold weather forced tn em to make frequent camps.
 Burke lost strength rapidly.
 November IS, Kading shot a cari- bou but Burke was unable even to eat the soup made from the meat. He died five days later.
 Kading and Marten marked Burke's grave with pile of logs.
 Write to Wife
 Burke became so weak before he died that the last entry in his log book was November 8. He wrota a letter to his wife, now in Atlin. Kading and Marten then trav- eled on toward Wolfe Lake and had gone 40 miles afoot from Burke's plane. They first sighted Pilot Wasson's plane November 25 and then again five days later. They were unable to signal the plane. Finally they gathered pile of wood to make a fire by which to attract attention from the air provided any flier again approached.

While members Of his expedition were
at play In various parts of New Zea-
land, on tours or fishing and hunting
trips, Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd,
with characteristic cheerfulness today
settled down to transact the large
amount Of business which has ac-
cumulated while he attended the
numerous receptions given in his
honor.
Admiral Byrd, who returned from
the antarctic Monday after more than
a year at the bottom of the world
during which he flew over the south
pole and discovered q large, previous
ly unmapped territory. was getting his
expedition ready to sail home next
week. The barque City of New York
and the steam Eleanor Boiling must
be refitted for the trip to New York
which is expected to require about
nine weeks.
City life here, which has meant but
little more than walking about the
streets specializing on the change
from the icy wastes of the antarctic,
has begun to pail OH members Of the
party. To each mans request for
leave Admiral Byrd replied. go
ahead" Aided by free railroad trans
portation many have gone to Mount
Cook. the highest peak of the South

ports from many parts Of the world in

said.
II have noted a tendency in some
quarters CT America and Europe to
create a CONTROVERSY between the
British Empire and the United States
concerning claims In the antarctic.
There Is no reason o ground for that.
We have considered this expedition q
scientific venture and we hope a

should bring u closer together and
not farther apart. It would be q pity
should a controversy arise and would
