ships at the scene of the Viking dis
 aster off the northern coast of New lfoundiand united to-day in a valiant
 effort to carry food and medical
 supplies to survivors on Horse
 Island, "regardIess of difficulties" Meanwhile, messages from Horse
 Island said food was being exhausted rapidly and that the wounded men
 were in urgent need of medical att tention which the ships-only four
 miles away-could supply if contact could be made.
 The messages said the captains of the ships agreed that there were no
 survivors left on the ice and that it was doubtful that there were any
 bodies on the ice, which was being carried out to sea and breaking up. The number of missing continued uncertain, but was upwards of 20, linasmuch as re-checks of the crew of the Viking yesterday showed that jthere may have been 156 men on board. There were 127 known safe. Conditions were described as pitt lful at Horse Island, where news was still being sent out by Otis Bart lett, the youthful radio operator.
 Bartlett worked hour after hour without sleep until the government finally ordered him to suspend the transmission of messages until he lcould get some rest
 1t was revealed last night that the Viking disaster, which occurred at g D. m. Sunday, was not known on
 Horse Island until early Monday morning, although the sound of the blast and the momentary flash were
 heard and seen by the residents.
 They knew, however, that the seal- ing ship was off the island and be- Ilieved 1t was merely the firing of a gun on the ship to guide members
 of the crew who had gone out on the ice. The tragedy was not discovered
 until the next morning before dawn
 when Bartlett looked out on the ice and saw the flames. The youth aroused the fishermen and they im- Imediately started efforts to aid the survivors on the ice.
 One survivor, among the last to
 reach safety on the island, was John
 Johnston, who walked in unassisted despite the fact that he had been lexposed to cold and was without food for TO hours. One of the
 stowaways on the Viking, 12-year- old Edwin Cronin, who previously had been reported safe, was listed among the t,issfng. The second !stowaway wG;I safe on the island. The minister of marine and fish cries. sent q message to Henry J.. Sargent of Boston. the only one of lthe United states citizens on the Viking who has been rescued. asking him to give his version of the ex- plosion. Sargent, replied tersely that he was with Varick Frissell, the New York explorer, and FrisselTs Icamerman, Arthur G. Penrod of Connecticut, at the time of the ex- plosion.

Scenic Spots of State
Attract Many Visitors

In spite of the business depression,
there were 3,058,927 visitors in 1881 to
the twenty-five national forests of
Oregon and Washington, according to
estimates of forest supervisors, which
data have just been released.
The 1880 totals exceeded the 1929
figures by only 5,919, while the 1881
totals exceed the 1890 figures by 1884,
246, according to the forest supervisors
reports. This shows, forest officers be-
lieve, that in spite Of the simple and
often crude camping facilities available,
the general public are coming to know
and use their own national forests In
the northwest more and more each
year for outings, as summer homes,
and for auto camping.
While the 1881 totals for hotel and
summer resort guests fell off by 1898,
the totals for campers and transient
auto visitors exceed the 1880 figures
by 10000 for the two states. The
above figures relate only to national
forest visitors in Oregon and Wash
ington.
Under mode of transportation, it is
reported that travellers by railroad,
trolley, stage line, and afoot showed
decreases of 1929, but increases in
auto travellers and by horseback by
1896 over 1880 figures.
Among Washington's eight national
forests the Snoqualmie led with 476,-
119 visitors, or an increase of 1855
over 1880. There were increases in
1881 on this forest in summer home
use, in hotel and resort guests, camp
ers and picnickers. Other Washing
ton national forests which show more
visitors for 1881 than or 1880 are the
Olympic and Rainier in western Wash
ington and the Colville and Wenatchee
in eastern Washington
In releasing the 1881 figures, Region
al Forester Buck brought out that the
U. S. forest service has for some years
been making recreation development
plans for the % national forests, that
147 forest campsites have been laid
out in the Oregon national forests and
145 in Washington. These campsites
have only the simplest camping and
sanitary conveniences. He stated that
within the national forests of the two
states there are ITO hotel resorts, So
in Oregon and 81 in Washington.
He added that there are 1875 sum-
mer home sites laid out in the Oregon
national forests, of which 848 are
leased and in use, while 795 have been
laid out in Washington and 497 are
leased and actually used. Also that
this national forest region now has
eight primitive areas set aside, five
in Oregon and three in Washington
