Seaplane Float Discovery Reveals Am Relic of Ill-Fated Craft Found by Norwegian Fishing Vessel Tromsoe, Norway, Spet. 1—(®)— The first definite clue to the fate of Roald Amundsen and five men who accompanied him on his expedition to rescue members of the Nobile arctic party, was brought here to- day. It was a float from the sea- plane in. which the adventurers started for Spitzbergen June 18. The relic was found by a Norweg- ian fishing vessel, the Brood. It was picked. up near the Fugloe Islan a rocky group off this port that is/ ached because it is so dangerous to shippin; Officers of the ‘steamer Michael and the French vessel Durance, identified the float as belonging to the French naval seaplane Latham in: which ‘Amundsen rode with Rene Guilbaud as pilot. Comparison of the. float. with photographs of the plane tended to confirm the identifi- cation. Besides Amundsen and Guilbaud the plane carried Lieutenant Lief Dietrichsen and three French navy nm comprising the regular crew of the plane. The Brood, which had been oper- ating off Venn Island, put into Tromsoe at Saturd: it Captain that he had picked up the pontoon at 9:80" last ‘night, 10 miles northwest * Phoraborg lighthouse on the northwest side of Vann Island. French consul in Tromsoe compared the pontoon with photo- graphs of the Latham and said that was no doubt that it had been part of the Amundsen plane.

The recent clearer definition of is- sues, and a measurable revealment of the personal qualities of the candi- dates, have not quieted the raging cross-currents of controversy. Each residential nominee continues to lose the allegiance of members of his own party circle, and to gain re- cruits from the opposition. Conflict- ing reports, puzzling rumors of good and evil import, and real political surprises follow one’ another in con- stant procession. It is probable that within another week, Mr. Hoover and Gov. Smith each will have disclosed in what. sector he proposes to strike. Both now are deep in consultation with their followers, and the around Labor Day should see these preparations begin to bear definite results.
