MOBILE RESCUE
Filler INJURED
Einar-PaaI Lundborg Near
Death After Crash.
By United Press

By United Press
STOCKHOLM. Jan. 27.-The IA
nous Swedish hier, Captain Einar
Paal Lundborg, was seriously in
jured today when his airplane
crashed.
Lundborg suffered a brain con-
cussion, several broken ribs and
breaks in both arms.
Lundborg thrilled the world in
1923 when he flew far over the
Arctic ice fields and located the
stranded party of General Umberto
Mobile, the Italian explorer whose
expedition had been ended by the
wreck of the dirigible Italia while
returning from the north pole.
The Swedish flier took great risks
in landing his plane on the ice foe
and returning to safety with the in
jured Mobile, who later was widely
criticised for being the first to leave
the foe.
Later the Swedish aviator re-
turned to the ice foe to pick up an
other member of the party, but his
plane was wrecked in landing and he
was forced to remain on the ice until
he in turn was rescued.
Lundborg visited the United
States in 1929.

Army Officers Wife Is
Victor in Court Clash
Over Joseph Farb.

A quick journey almost a fifth
of the way across the globe is only
incidental to the joy of regaining
custody of two children from whom
she had been separated five months,
Mrs. Esther Anderson, formerly of
Indianapolis, told the world today.
In superior court two Monday
afternoon Mrs. Anderson waged a
legal battle against Joseph Farb, her
former husband, and was duly re-
warded," she says, for a hurried trip
from Honolulu with the beaming
faces of Barbara Farb, 10 months,
and Joseph Farb, 3, her children,

Judge Joseph r. Williams be-
heved mother love is stronger yet
than the petty accusations that
Mrs. Anderson twas not a fit per-
son to care for the children" and
returned them to her with but one
restriction-she must not take them
out of Marion county.
Mb1IACu AAAuy OAACCA
Wife of Morris D. Anderson,
United States army officer stationed
at Honolulu, the woman was di-
vorced last June in Indianapolis
from Farb. Although Farb sued for
the decree, Mrs. Anderson obtained
the divorce on a ross-complaint
with the stipulation that Farh was
to parent the children.
Last September, Mrs. Anderson
married the army officer who was
called Immediately to duty on the
Pacific island. Farb, meanwhile,
placed the two children in an In
dianapolis home.
In Honolulu, Mrs. Anderson testi-
fed, she became i'll and was advised
by physician to return to her
children. With her husband. she
arrived in Indianapolis a week ago,
"broke but happy" she said.
Charges Father Sold Booze
In suit brought by Arthur Dins-
more, her attorney, Mrs. Anderson
asked not only custody of the chill
dren, but asked that Farb be cited
fer contempt of court for failure to
pay her weekly allowance under the
decree.
She charged he was a bootlegger,
unfit to parent her children, and
that he twice was convicted for the
offenSe.
But Farb was reluctant to re-
turn Barbara and Joseph to their
mother.
He countercharged Mrs. Ander-
son proved herself a brutal moth
err, testifying that on several occa-
sionS she had abandoned the chill
dren. He accused his former wife
Of being narcotic addict.
Farb Ordered to Pay
The wrangling of attorneys at
Mondays hearing apparently meant
nothing to Barbara and Joseph Jr.
Alternately they chose to sit beside
mama" at one table and daddy"
at another.
UNFOLDING Mrs. Anderson's petit
ton, Judge Williams ordered Farb
to pay his former wife SO week,
giving him absolute right to see the
children at all times.
Mrs. Anderson indicated her hus-
band may be successful in an effort
to be reassigned to the FIT. Benja-
min Harrison army post.
