THE MYSTERY OF LEVANEVISKY

Just what happened to Sigismund Levanevisky
and his companions who were attempting a third
Soviet flight over the pole from Moscow to the United
States may never be known AS the search runs into
weeks and no found, the possibility OF finding
them becomes more and more remote General theory
is that they were forced down or crashed somewhere
on the vast space of Arctic ice and if not killed will
die before they reach civilization.
The disappearance of Levanevisky leaves more
puzzng mystery than has the loss of many other
avators on pioneering stunts particularly because OF
the reports emanang Moscow shortly before the
flight The Soviet Lindbergh" Russian dis
patches stated originally scheduled to make the first
Soviet Polar hop. But another fer made it with a
companion Came the second Soviet polar flight and
still no Levane lsky About the time Of the second
flight there came from the Soviet capital report
that Pilot Levanevisky being detained by his gov
eminent in connection with some mysterious Soviet
secret At any rate at the reception for the Soviet
fiers who had been establishing base at the North
Pole Levanevisky was absent All Russia was paying
homage to the polar air pioneers but the man ther
dubbed the Soviet Lindbergh" not around. The
world took notice but reports from Moscow became
even more secretive
Then suddenly there came the report that Levane-
visky would head the third polar flight. One of his
companions would be Victor Levchenko, who was CO.
pilot with Levanevisky when he here two years
ago.
The flight got under way. Last report from the
plane was from somewhere around the pole. Their
only silence.
What happened to the Soviet Lindbergh' and
his companions is a mystery. 1t is more of mystery
when considers the strange circumstances immedi
atey preceding his takeoff from Moscow.

DARK CLOUDS IN THE ORIENT

The situation in the Orient doesn't seem to grow
any brighter. Japan apparently has bumped into
opposition which she did not entirely expect and
now must sacrifice than she anticipated in show
ing the world that she can push China out of the
way and invade the latter country. That, at least,
the picture gets from the dispatches emanatng
from across the Pacific
Japan has been recognized major military
power China, on the other hand with population
of millions has in modern times been considered
military threat. In other words, while the SYM
pathy of the world with China it was generally
conceded that if and when Japan decided to take
China she probably would be able to do so with
out much effort.
But the Japanese have run into difficulties The
descendants of Genghis Khan are putting up stub
born resistance which surprises the military world.
Probably the most surprised is Tokyo which now has
