By JULIAN SNYDER United Press Staff Correspondent SW YORK, Aug. 1.—Lincoin worth, American explorer, sees Sbil of developments of in- dustry in the arctic region.

The man who rescued two of his companions from the icy waters in the Arctic and y escaped death himself declared positively he would make a new attempt to fly to the pole “with Amundsen again as leader.” Modestly he informed the United Press he had spent $85,000 of his personal fortune on the polar flight. The entire cost of the expedition was Even before $150,000, he said. Pl for the new fight, Ellsworth said, would be arranged after Amundsen arrives in this country, about October 1. “We consider our trip merely as a preminary. I am sure we shall have better luck next time.” he said. Ellsworth said the ice fields over which he flew were often blanketed by dense fogs. The temperature was uniformly around degrees and none of the party suffered from the cold. “At our fartherest point north we sounded and found the water 4,0000 meters deep, indicating there was no land in the vicinity,” he sald. ‘We were then less than 200 miles from the pole.” Ellsworth indicated he will make no stops on the next polar flight. “The hazards of ever shifting ice and the summocky terriane make it extremely difficult for an airplane to land,” he said. ‘We very nearly experienced disaster ourselves. “My plane alighted on the open water and we were five days pulling it upon ice cake. during which none of the party slept. The ship was leak- ing badly and only one of the en- gines was working. The great ice cakes were -onstantly crashing all around us. “Meanwhile, Amundsen’s plane was facing similar dangers three miles away. Between us were great jagged ice p and open stretches of water. y we succeeded in pulling our plane upon the ice cake but then we were beset by the danger that the ice would split. “It took three days to join forces with Amundsen and after a consul- tation we decided to start back for Norway. “We were forced to move $00 tons of ice to level off a floor for the take-off. For this great task, we had only three wooden shovels, three sheaf knives and an achor.
