COUNTY DUMP
ROW ENDED

HYATTSVILLE, Md, Dec. S.
The Prince Georges county police
war against unlicensed dumping
apparently was at an end today
as the result of the action Of
Judge George B. Merrick yester-
day in dismisSing all offenders
brought + fore him on this charge.
Before dismissing the offenders.
Judge Merrick expressed the opin-
ion that the cases should have
been taken to the grand jury and
pointed out that the dumping
nuisance probably was at an end
as the result Of the recent an
nouncement by the Suburban
Sanitary Commission that a
licensed dumping ground would
open December 10.
Nine offenders had been ar
rested by the county police at
Hyattsville since November 6
when they received orders from
the county commissioners to stop
the dumping nuisance which had
been called to the commissioners
attention in a petition from resi-.
dents in Bladensburg and River
dale.

GEORGETOWN, British Gui-
ana, Dec. 5 GN.SO.-Two Ameri-
can airplane pilots and a wealthy
British Guiana timber operator
arrived in Paramaribo, Dutch
Guiana, today on the first leg Of
an airplane expedition to search
for Paul Redfern, Georgia aviator

Guiana jungles.
Using an amphibian plane on
the first expedition of its kind to
locate the long-loSt flier. the trio
were determined to investigate
thoroughly recent oft-repeated re-
ports that Rdfern was alive but
crippled, living with Indians far

ternal air service in British
Guiana; Edward Sill the timber
operator, and Harry Wendt, Ameri-
can and copilot of the expedition.
Williams and Sill are sponsoring
the expedition, on which they left
here yesterday.
They were flying a Wasp Ire
land amphibian plane owned by
Williams, who, before leaving here,
said he accepted as a challenge to
his ability the statement made
several weeks ago by William S. La
Varre, American explorer, that he,
La Varre, had failed to reach Red
fern only for want of an am
phibian plane.
Disappeared in 81
The trio are reported in Para
maribo adviceS to be ready to hop
for the jungleS. where they would
land on rivers or lakes. as soon
as they find a suitable Indian
guide.
Missionaries and Indians re-
Gently have reported seeing Red
fern alive or of hearing reliable
reports of his life with the In
dianS.
Redfern disappeared in 1927 on
an attempted nonstop flight from
Brunswick, Ca, to Rio de jan
eiro. Ever since stories of his be-
ing alive in the jungle have
cropped up periodically, but re-
Gently more credence was given
