nifcant in light of statistics
showing that three members
of the ''peace bloc" - the
United States, Great Britain and
France-and one potential member,
Soviet Russia, control more than 30
per cent of the worlds oil supply.
And despite the frantic efforts of
Japan, Germany and Italy to cor
ner additional supplies, new oil lands
are being leased to democracies. A

Sponsor Journey.

off to the island-studded
" south Pacific this month is
going searching party =
searching for facts about how
and when that mighty ocean
was born.
Conducted by the National
Geographic society and the
University of Virginia, with
cooperation of the United
States coast guard, a band of
intrepid adventures will fol-
low the trail of Captain Bligh
to desolate Pitcairn island. The
party will visit haunts of Herman
Melville and Robert Louis Steven
son, but not for romance or lovely
south sea maidens.
Instead they will reach down into
Davy Jones' locker with depth
soundings, bring up samples of sea
bottom deposits, map magnetic con-
ditions and slight differences in the
pull of gravity, and fly overhead to
make photographs from the air.
There's romance to this journey, but
not the Bligh-Stevenson-Melville va
riety.
Why Does Compass veer?
From this least-known of all ocean
regions they expect to wrest amaz-
ing secrets. For example, there is
a mysterious magnetic influence
among these islands which makes
the mariners compass veer far
from the true north.
Information gathered by the ex-
peditions which will be the first ever
to make co-ordinated studies of this
sort, is expected to result in safer

States, Great Britain, France and
New Zealand. They include the we'll
known Canton island, recently dedi-
Gated to joint use as an American
and British air base; Pitcairn, home
of descendants of the mutineers of
the Bounty; Tahiti, and the Samoan
group. The expedition plans to es-
tablish major bases on 20 or more
islands, from each of which 10 to
SO islands will be examined.
Leading the expedition will be Will
bur A. Nelson, professor of geology
at the University of Virginia. The
National Geographic society will
provide geophysicists, geographer
and photographer and photogra-
pher. Experts on magnetism of the
earth will be from the Carnegie in
stitution, while the United States
coast and geodetic survey will pro-
vide experts on gravity and geode-
sy. The National Broadcasting COM
pany will send radio engineers to
investigate radio phenomena and ar
range broadcasts from the remote
islands.
A large coast guard vessel,
equipped with seaplane and appa-
ratus for taking sonic depth sound
ings, will provide transportation.
Make Miniature Earthquakes.
Scientists have novel ways of dig
ging out their information. Delicate
and complicated instruments, to be
carried to these exotic islands for
the first time, will make the Pacific
yield up long-kept secrets. The way
pendulum swings may give an ink
ling as to when the vast basin was
born. Cores of mud bagged from
the ocean bottom by odd "guns"
will add to the story. Echoes will
tell of water depth, and tiny man.
made earthquakes produced by ex-
plosions on the ocean floor will in
dictate the type of rock lying under
the deposits that have been sitting
down, grain by grain, for milleni-
ums.
Since the expedition will necessa-
rily explore many out-of-the-way is
lands and seldom-visited waters, it
is expected to make valuable con-
tributions to geography by checking
old maps, charts and surveys, re-
determining locations of islands, and
gathering additional facts on sound
ings, channels, tides and currents.
Ocean "deeps" and high ridges
among the islands will be explored
in an effort to determine whether
they have connection with earth
quakes which have centered in the
region in the past. Regions of
earthquake activity often are locat-
ed near great sea depths.
Two Types Of Island.
AL of the islands are of the "pure
Pacific" type with the exception of
the Fiji and Tonga groups which are
Of the Continental" type. The Pacific
type Of island is either volcanic of
relatively recent formation, or coral
topping recent underwater volcanic
outpourings. The continental type,
on the other hand, has a foun-
dation Of very old granite rocks as
do the continents.
The expedition expects to sail
from San Francisco about Septem-
Der IS and will make one Of its early
stops at Canton island. The tiny
"oasis" on the ocean is a potential
way station for an air service be-
tween the United States and Canada
at one end, and New Zealand and

ST. LOUIS. April 14.-The POST
Dispatch said today in a copyright
story the Federal Government was
in possession of letters which gave
acknowledgements" picture of the
efforts of Boss Tom Pendergast and
R. Emmett O'Malley of Kansas City
to save themselves from indictment
on income tax evasion charges.
The letters were written by Mr..
O'Malleys wife last month to her
son and daughter -in-law. Mr.. and
Mrs. Lambert O'Malley of Washing
ton, the newspaper said. It did not
disclose how Federal agents came
into possession of the letters.
In the letters, as quoted by the
Post-Dispatch. Mrs. O'Malley ex-
pressed anxiety over the testimony
given by A. L. Mccormack, st. Louis
insurance executive, to the Federal
grand jury at Kansas City which
last Friday indicted Mr.. Pendergast
and Mr.. O'Ma!ley, former State in
surance superintendent.
Things Pretty Well Settled"

to have said in a letter dated last
March IA, but they have things
pretty we'll settled on him and if he
did talk he would try to keep us

Cormack was the friend" to whom
she referred The letter continued:
Dad gets almost panicky at times,
for they have gone pretty we'll into
his affairs. Don't be uneasy in any
way for the big boy is working fine
here"
The newspaper said Mr.. Pender-
gast was the big boy"
There was a cheerful note in her
next letter. After describing how
every one is looking out for him
SELF she wrote that the grand
jury has been grandstanding the
last few days, hoping our good friend
will talk"
A subsequent letter told of the
terrific strain and said, I'VE

Five hours later Mayor Smith dis
closed Mr.. McElroy's resignation to
reporters.
Speculation that the nine member
City Council might not accept Mr.
McElroy's resignation arose. Five
votes are necessary to accept. With
one member i'll, the Star said a a.
deadlock appeared possible at to-
days caucus. The council will act
formally tomorrow.
Mayor Smith and three other
councilmen said they would vote to
accept. Three said they would vote
no" Another said he needed time
to think" The ninth, i'll, has not
attended council meetings for
months. His position, should he at

Conflict Foreseen
On Monetary Contro!
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A partisan conflict over the pro-
posed two-year extension of the ad-
ministration's monetary powers was
foreseen today by House members.
Democrats of the House Coinage
Committee recommended extension
of the Treasury's right to buy newly
mined silver above world prices,
along with operation of its $2,OOO,-
600 900 stabilization fund and presi-
dental authority to revalue the
dollar.
In separate report, Republican
members of the committee called for
return to the gold standard and
congressional control of money. The
Republicans said the presidential
power over the value of the dollar
is serious restraint" on trade.
Their report said it was small
wonder that, besides the President
and Mr.. Morgenthau (Secretary of
the Treasury those who are most
vociferous in desiring a continuation
