Mike Coney mushed his malamutes
over frozen tundra and deep snow
drifts today with a fair chance of
reaching Kantishna, where Mrs. Ed
ward M. Biddle of Philadelphia has
been snowbound for nearly three
months.
If Cooney and his eight-dog team
arrive before Friday he probably
will start back to Nenana with Mrs.
Biddle.
If he has not arrived by Fri
day, the Philadelphia society leader
and authoress, weather permitting,
will hear the welcome hum of the
Diamond mail plane miles off its
course, and sent to Kantishna by
friends.
AS an air passenger, she would
look back at the tiny cabin Of Fan
ME Quigley, her hostess since Jan.
IL, when she was trapped by an
Arctic winter.
Although it is only 22O miles to
Kantishna. Cooney has been beaten
back for a month in repeated at
tempts to penetrate the drifts and
billiards..
The plane yet may be needed if
Mrs. Biddle is to fulfill her desire
to see the early breakup of ice in

Parliament Told.
BY HERBERT MOORS
United Press staff Correspondent


LONDON, March 23.-. H.
Thomas, Dominion secretary, in
formed the house Of commons today
that the British government stands
firmly against abolition of the oath
to the king and non-payment of
the land annuities, as proposed by
the Republican government of
canon De Valera in the Irish Free
State.
The government is addressing to
the Free State government a COM
munication which will make its
standpoint clear beyond the posi-
bility of doubt on the question
of the OATH" he said.
Failure to pay the land annuitieS
would be a manifest violation Of an
agreement which is binding in law
and honor on the Irish Free State,
whatever administration might be
in power"
Thomas stated the governments
position after an audience with the
king and an important cabinet
meeting.
Thomas, in reply to question,
confirmed the published contents
of communication from John w
Dulanty, Free State commissioner
in London, in which the Free State
contended the oath was not made
mandatory in the treaty of 1921.
ut is manifest that the oath is
an integral part of the treaty,
Thomas said.
Regarding the land annuities, he
said there had been no official COM
munication, but on the basis of de
Valera's speech to the Free State
senate Tuesday, as reported by the
press, "we understand the Free
State government proposes to retain
the land annuities."
AN honorable agreement only
could be altered by agreement on
two sides" Thomas said. The Free
