Weak Signals Heard From Lost
Soviet Airmen; Search OF Arctic
Held Up By Inauspicious Weather

Levanevsky's plane, were heard
almost daily until late last week
when they suddenly stopped.
The government did not reveal
the nature of the latest signals. 1t
was so encouraged that all Soviet
stations were ordered to broad
cast the rescue measures being
taken to find the filler in the hope
that Levanevsky's receiving appa-
ratus was still functioning and
the filters would be encouraged.
One Russian relief plane arriv-
ed at Cape Kozhevnikov near
Nordvik in 1.-THE Arctic and the
second landed at Karimkari on
the Oh river en- route to Dickson
island. The icebreaker Krassin,
now cleared of ice, sailed along
the list parallel toward the ice
breaker Mikoyan which passed
through the Bering straits Sun
day.
Three multi motored planes
were tested Sunday and found
satisfactory for the long trans
polar flight. They will be fitted
out on the Gath and will take off
for the pole on the 25th via Arch

emily had fallen back before ter
rifle bombardments from Japan

"In view of the successful oper-

give the Chinese army a decisive
blow before the Chinese army
withdraws from the Shanghai
area" the spokesman said.
