WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1929 BIELSON SEARCHERS {Planes Take Off, but Return When They Fail to Penetrate 7,000-Foot Fog Bank Nome, Alaska, Dec. .—()—Dense fog which covered a large part of the Bering Straits area today still held to the ground planes waiting to join the search for Carl Ben Elelson and Earl Borland, pilot and mechanic of ® plane missing since Noy. 9. Pilots Frank Dorbandt and tag Grosson took off from Teller yeste! day on an attempted flight to the Siberian coast, where Eielson is be- Meved to have been forced down, but were compelled to turn back to their base after being in the air three and one-half hours. The fog extended to an altitude of 7,000 feet over Dionede island in Bering Straits, they said. Elelson and Borland had removed ‘six passengers from the icebound fur Head ship Nanuk, near North Cape, lberia, and were making a return trip to the boat when they disappear- ed. A strong blizzard raged over the coast that day. A radio message from the Nanu’ yesterday said the temperature creased revenues had always followed and tiat the stimulus given to busi- ness was partly responsible for these upward jump in receipts. In his first budget message, he esti- mated the treasury’s outlay for the 12 monthes beginning rext July at 24,102.938,700 and figured there would be a $122,000,000 surplus at the end of that period. The difference between appropri- | ations asked and expenditures fore- cazt was explained as being due to the fact that the pi lent had not included any emount fer the revolv- ing fund of the federal farm beard because it had not been determined hov much ‘vould be necessary. In the estimate of outgo, however, the amount pleced at $200,000.00. A further difference of $72,000,000 was duc to 2 carr, of ations from the will be ed, the request was ior $145,696,000 then for this year.

Road Engineers Drop Power Shovel From Highway Hopes No more agitation for a power shovel is in prospect at the state highway department offices. At the recent conference of —— engineers it was agreed that posses: sion of a power shovel would cost th the department more than it would be worth.

Many roads in western North Da-| kota are cut into steep side hills and | in some cases earth slides have oc-| curred after rains, making the road impassable.
