Replies total more than 1O0&

The top problems are of concern
to Republicans and Democrats

to note that the problem of annie
able international relations is a BIZ.
partisan concern not only in gov.
eminent circles, but also among
the people. There is equal concern
among Republicans and Democrats
alike concerning the problem of
international relations.
" When replies of Republicans and
Democrats in the survey are sep
arated, a greater proportion of Re-

cerned about strikes and labor,
but aside from this, the list of
problems of both groups look
about the same.

South Pole Flight Set
ByAdmiraLB Byrd Soon

to work its way through the ice
choked seas to the southeastern
extremity of the Bellinghausen sea.
He said patrol planes operating
from that rea might be able to
discover whether the Weddell Sea
extends through the continent
to join the Ross Sea. If that is
true, the Palmer Peninsula, Els
worth Land and Mare Byrd Land
presumably would form one vast
island extending southwark almost
to the pole.
Interest High
Byrd said he was tremendously
interested in the uncharted region
he hopes to explore. He termed
it ''the most inaccessible place on
the face of the earth-just beyond
the south pole from where we are
at Little America"
The smiling, ruddy-cheeked ex-
p1orer made another bit of polar
history on his flight to Little
America. He came in the first
carrier-launched plane ever t
land on the Antarctic mainland.
One of the first to greet him was
his six-foot son, 1t. Richard E
Byrd, Jr.., who rushed out to NEE
the plane.
Byrd strobe over to the youth,
gave him a playful shove and shook
his hand warmly.
His plane landed on a specially
constructed runway alongside the
Bay of Whales at 5:18 a. m. Oil 8

PROPERTY LISTING
PERIOD TO END
HERE TOMORROW

The period for listing property
by residents of New Hanover
county is slated to end January 81.
according to Charles R. Smith,
county auditor.
The listing Of property has been
underway since the beginning OF
the year in each township in the
county, but the registrars have
been operating in the courthouse
the last five days of the month.
Smith said that listings during
the five day period have been very
heavy, with a good many property
owners waiting until this time to
make their returns.
Despite the rush during this per-
iod, he said, there are still a good
many people left who have not list
ed their property during January
and urged that anyone failing to
make their returns during this time
to do SO before the deadline pass.

LITTLE AMERICA, Jan. 3O-W.R
- Rear Adm. Richard E. Byrd
landed at Little America today
and Immediately announced plans
for a flight across the South Pole
into unexplored territory to deter
mine whether the Antarctic is a
single continent or two great is
land masses.
Byrd said the Navy expedition
under his command may be on the
Threshold of "the most important
geographical discovery remain
ing in the world"
The graying, 58-year-old explor-
er, who landed here this morning
after a risky 65O-mile flight from
the carrier Philippine Sea to take
charge of his fourth Antarctic ex-
petition, said he plans to work a
seaborne task force into the south
eastern part Of the Bellinghausen
sea.
From there, 1ong-range patrol
planes will be sent winging south
and east over the unexplored ter
ritory between the Ross and We'd
dels Seas.
He outlined his plans at a press
conference aboard the command
ship Mt. Olympus in the Bay of
Whales.
Byrd pulled out a map of the
Antarctic and spread it out on his
desk.
He traced a line with his finger
across the map from Little Amer
lea south to the pole and then be-
You'd.
I'D like somebody to get into
that vast unknown area on the 9TH
er side of the pole" he said.
What a reward it would be if,
for instance, they found a big vol
canic area there with boiling water
coming out of the ground. Thai
would be of tremendous impor.
lance biologically, geologically
and geographically"
He reiterated his belief that the
Antarctic is ian untouched reser
voir Of natural resources"
Before the expedition sailed TO,
the Antarctic, reports circulated
freely in Washington that one of its
major detectives would be to
search for possible uranium de.
posts. The Navy has denied, how.
ever, that it is engaged in any
uranium ace with Russia, Britain
Or other powers which have sen
or plan expeditions to the south
polar regions.)
Byrd did not say whether he
planned to fly across the pole him
self, although he is the only mar
ever to cross both the North ane
South Poles by air.
He said the project hinges upor
the ability Of the eastern task
! force under Capt. George Dufe.
