House President Roosevelt today pre-
sented the Hubbard Medal Of the Ma
tional Geographic Society to Lincoln

In making the presentation Mr..

plorer and praised the Nationa. Geo.
graphic Society for its part in prorot-
ing geographic studies.
After praising Ellsworth. the Presi-
den said:
1T gives me greater pleasure to pre-
sent this because you have shown that
the world still holds opportunity for
high adventure"
In response, Ellsworth thanked the
President. and added:
May tell you that the most i'm
portant incident Of my flight across
Antarctica was when raised the Stars
and Stripes over $4,000 square miles
Of territory and claimed it for the
United States. 1t was the last un-
claimed land on earth"
This presentation Of the much
coveted medal was made in the pres
ence of a gathering which included
Mrs. Ellsworth, wife Of the explorer:
Gilbert Grosvenor. president Of the
National Geographic Society; John
Oliver LaGorce, vice president; George
w. Hutchison. secretary; Melville B.
Grosvenor, in charge Of the society's
lecture course, and Frank Fisher, its

and read q prepared speech. No one
noticed anything wrong with it. In
terior's Ickes then got up and cast
aside his prepared speech, saying:
Ghosts walk up and down the In
terror Building leaving things like
this speech on my desk, but I am not
going to make the same mistake as
Wallace, who preceded me-" Then
it was discovered that Wallace had
read aloud the following line of

Concern over the Districts un-
employment problem continued today
as the Commissioners waited for
Acting Budget Director Daniel w.
Bell to act on their plea for a second
supplemental relief appropriation Of
s25s,0O0
The request was sent to Bell about
two weeks ago after the Commits
sioners' first plea for s608,00o from
District revenues had been cut to
s25o,000 by the Budget Bureau and
raised to s350,OOo by Congress.
No Notice of Hearing Date.
There has been 40 notice yet Of a
date for hearing. Bell said today he
had been busy with budget matters
at the Capitol and had not been
able yet to study the request. He
could not say when he would reach
decision.
As word to this effect reached the
District Building, Welfare Director
Elwood Street told Commissioner
George z. Allen 4,470 families. rep
resenting lo,574 persons, now are re-
ceiving relief payments. On April l,
due to drastic diminution of District
relief funds, thousands Of individuals
were cut of.

senting about l3.107 individuals, were
dropped. After investigation, the well
fare head said, 3l3 cases were taken ir
last week, bringing the total active

whom are receiving relief. The report
that 4,470 cases are receiving payments
would indicate that 1850 of the open

Street reported that of the total
case load 1885 are cases of dependent
children, that 247 are hone-care cases.
The Board of Public Welfare, he
said, has received 1851 applications
for old-age assistance and 81 appli-
cations for assistance to the needy
