Wilkins May Go
Under Arctic Ice
I'm Old u. S. Sub
and Simon Lake
Confer With Navy Of
fetal on Purchase.

BY the Associated Press.
Capt. Hubert wilkins, explorer Of
the top and bottom of the world, may
undertake his proposed trip beneath
the Arctic ice in an obsolete United
States submarine. converted into a
"submersible boat"
The bearded explorer, together with
Simon Lake, submarine inventor and
builder, called upon Assistant Secretary
Jahncke of the Navy late yesterday to
try to purchase such boat. Whether
the Navy will sell has yet to be decided.
Reticent on Conference.
Both wilkins and Lake were loath to
discuss their conference. The explorer
acknowledged that the possibility of
using a submersible boat for geophysical
work In the Arctic" had been discussed.
He added, however, that, being a Brit
ish subject, he himself could not pos
sibly purchase such a craft from the
Government.
It was Assistant Secretary Jahncke
who told the details of the visit He
said the explorer and the inventor had
been advised to enclose the details of
their proposed purchase in letter to be
submitted to Secretary Adams.
Jahncke added that undoubtedly the
request would eventually be sent to the
l&CRdIu VI otdtCs n Ill IIlc
London naval treaty, which has yet to
come before the Senate, makes specific
mention of experimental submarines. he
explained, and thus the proposed sale
would involve an international angle.
Sometime Next Year"
wilkins, whose explorations have car
ried him through the air, said he
planned to make his Subice voyage into
the North sometime next year" prob
ably about year from this month.
1t would be made, he reiterated, in
"submersible boat" rather than a
submarine in the generally acknowl-
edged sense of the word. His explana-
ton Of the major differences between
the two was that the submarine was
almost entirely an instrument of war.
In the craft he hopes to use, the ex-
plorer said, scientific apparatus would
replace all fighting equipment, and the
boat would be made over generally for
the specific end of cruising into the
North, submerging under the ice when
necessary and cutting its way up again.

more. rest than the average
individual. Get eight to ten
hours rest in bed every night,
whether you sleep or not.
Rest on a bed or couch at
full length is especially i'm
portant after meals. It not only
allows more complete absorp-
tion Of food, but also raises the
stomach, keeps it from hang
ing and helps it to empty itself.
Lie half the time on the right
side. This will give the ston.
ach the best chance to empty
itself.
3. Exercises for the abdominal
muscles. This strengthening of
the abdominal muscles will i'm
