Clue Found
TDeath of
Amundsen

MOSCOW, Aug. 25 G.N.S).
Firm belief the mystery surround
ing the disappearance of Roald
Amundsen, noted Arctic explorer,
will soon be solved was expressed
=, International News Service to-
day by Gen. Umberto Mobile,
Italian dirigible expert.
Amundsen and three compan-
ions dropped from sight several
years ago while searching in the
Arctic wastes for General Mobile
and members of the crew of the
ill-starred dirigible Italia.
Mobile, who is in Russia super
vising airship construction, based
his belief on reports from from
soc, Norway, that fishermen had
found an aluminium sheet be-
lieved to have been part of
Amundsen's plane near Bear
-cland off Spitzbergen. Mobile
said:
"The last news from Amund-
sen was D radio from the Bar
entZ Sea, not far from the
place where the aluminium
sheet was found.
"AmundSen asked in that
radio message for directions re-
garding a landing place.
Apparently he attempted an
emergency landing and crash
ed into an iceberg.
"NO other plane has ever
been lost in that vicinity. 1
consider it highly necessary for
search to be continued in this
region. 1t may lift the veil
from an historic tragedy"

CHICAGO, Aug. Is 0.N.S0.
Explain or resign"

CHICAGO, Aug. rs u.N.S.).
Explain or resign"
This was the challenge hurled
by civic leaders today at Mayor
Edward j. Kelly. one of five
prominent Chicago politicians
named in a newspaper expose
as public officials who were COM
PEELED to make income tax settle
ments with the United States
Government.
Plans we're completed for an
open air meeting of taxpayers
next Sunday to demand that
Mayor Kelly resign or explain the
source of the $450,000 income on
which the Government forced
him to pay 100000 in tax and
fraud penalties.
Parade Barred
Because the taxpayers Civic
Forum, which Is sponsoring the
meeting, was unable to obtain a
permit from the police depart
ment there will be no professions,
as was originally planned, to
Mayor Kelly'S home.
John Mangan, president Of the
Southern Taxpayers Association,
and one of the organizers of the
protest meeting, announced that
10000 posters for use on auto
mobile windows will be distr1-
buted at the gathering. The
posters will bear the inscription:
Explain or resign"
The Chicago American stated
that Mayor Kelly and Patrick
Nash, "implored and begged"
Postmaster James A. Farley to
use his influence to save their
friend Moe Rosenberg, q Demo-
cratic politician, from a Federal
Indictment for alleged evasion Of
income taxes.
Aid Refused
Farley, however, it was as
serted, turned a deaf ear to the
pleadings of Kelly and Nash and,
according to the American.
severely rebuked and criticised
them"
The meeting between Farley
and the two Chicago Democratic
leaders took place, the American
said, in the Congress Hotel when
the Postmaster General came to
Chicago just prior to Rosen-
berg's indictment.
Day by day the list of proni-
Aent men involved in the income
tax scandal is growing. The ex-
pose is being made by two news
papers-The chicago Evening
American and The Herald and
Examiner. The other three Chi.
cago newspapers are publishing
only casual and sketchy accounts.
Fifth Name Added
The fifth man on the list was
named this morning when the
Herald-Examiner stated that Ben
= 3amin F. Lindheimer, chairman Of
the Illinois Commerce Commits
sion, also made an income tax
settlement with the Federal Gov
ernment.
Others previously named were:
, Mayor Kelly, Patrick A. Nash,
Democratic national committee
& man, and head of the contracting
firm of Nash Brothers which was
alleged to be the chief beneficiary
Of some $13,OO0,0OO of sanitary
district contracts while Kelly was
chief engineer of the sanitary dis
trlct; Alderman Jacob Arvey, and
Tax Assessor Barnet HodeS.

substitute motion failed to carry.

Craig ruled 1t out Of order. saying it
was worded improperly, and adding
that before the bills could be sent to
the state affairs committee. they had
TO be brought into the house and then
4 motion had to be voted on to refer
them to another committee.
M. H. Lynch, Richland county. then
moved to have the bills brought back
to the house and the motion was de-
feated.
After Goodwin said his motion was
made lin fairness to the $4,000 resi-
