The task of revising Washington's code of building regulations, which has been under way for more than a | vear, will be completed within ten days, Maj. Raymond Wheeler, as sistant engineer commissionér, pre- dicted last night. 4 Engineer Commissioner Bell, it is expected, will Issuo a call for a formal public hearing sometime in November to give bullders, architects and the public an opportunity to pass judgment on the new code. The next problem will be to find funds with which to have the re- written code printed so that copies will be available for the hundreds of men engaged in the building and allled industries. No Fund for Printing. While there s no specfic appropria- tion available for the printing, clty officials are confident they will find a way to surmount that difficulty. The new code will be brought up to date to keep pace With develop- ments in construction methods, but will not be radically different from the old_one. Every effort has simplify phraseology and to eliminate unnecessary sections. Many old sec- tions have been cut out entirely, be- cause the subjects they dealt with are now covered by the zoning iaw. Building Inspector John P. Healy and his assistant, Maj. John Oehmann, did much of the preliminary work of revision before Col. Keller left the office of engineer Commissioner. For several weeks a special committee of architects and builders, under the lcadership of Municipal Architect Harris, has been carefully checking every page of the manuscript for final consideration by the Commissioners.

Since his crew and equip- ment were both inadequate for this work, he bought the Polar Bear and took ‘most of us over. that Knight and I went into training as explorers. Knight was about my age.

Our last trip together had been with Stefans- son, in search of new lands on the | moving ice to the north of Isachson. {1t was on that trip that we { perished, a heart-sickening experi- ence that made Knight decide that he was through with the north. When we parted he said he was going out to buy a scow and start a floating gro- cery. But no man is ever through with the north till the north is through with him. Ultimately he was to be drawn back again, and for the last time. The white cross on Wran- gel Island marks his final abode.

There, from a grizzled old Hudson Bay fac- tor, who had got the news from the captain of a supply boat that had called the previous summer, I lcarned that Knight was once more on the ice Coming back to civilization in 1821, I got tidings of him again, at Barrow, the northmost point of Alaska. Stef- ansson, 1 learned, had sent an _expe- dition to Wrangel Island and Knight was second in command. Mystery About Venture. Coming down the Alaskan coast, 1 tried to find out more about the ex- pedition. The whole venture seemed to be shrouded in mystery. I learned that five people—Knight was one of them—had chartered a boat at Nome and that this boat, after dropping, the party at Wrangél Island, had re- turned to port. The landing party was sald to have raised the British flag. Stefansson and I learned some of the i Offices Then it was | n spirit only, for I am as weak as a | nearly | ed from the outside world.

He told me that he belleved the island would be of jnestimable value as a possible fu- ture base for airplane and radio op- erations. Canadlan government to sponsor his plan of making good his claim by cetablishing a colony there. Canada was slow to respond. Belleving that Japan would not be long In seeing the value of the island because of its strategic position on a future air- plane route between Japan and Eni fand, Stefunsson had decided to flnance an_expedition himself. He told me that the expedition was nominally in charge of a young Ca- radian, Allan Crawtord, a student of Toronto University and son of one of the professors. The other members were Amerfeans. Knight and Fred- erick Maurer had both been with him on, a previous expedition but Milton Gille, u nineteen-year-old boy from Texas, who had traveled with him as sceretary, had had no more experi- ence of the north than Crawford. Inexperfence Is Blamed. Looking back I can 'see that in the youth and inexperience or its person- nel lies the tragedy of the venture. The first realization I had that these men were in danger came last winter when I met Capt. Bernard. He was In charge of the supply hoat that was to have landed provisions and men for the continuation of the colony. From him I learned that, un- less the boys had the best of luck in hunting, the outfit they had taken could mot possibly last them over a second geason. Capt. Bernard, financed by Canadian money, had tried to reach the island durinig the summer, but the fce cond} tions were unusually bad. After mak- ing a courageous effort to batter his way through the floes, he had to re- turn to Nome, lacking the outfit for a more extended trip. It was not until I reached Wrange!l 7 at I learned from Ada Blackjack and from Knight's diary, that the ice around the island had opened late in the fall, after Bernard had been forced to abandon his at- tempt. Velnnteers His Service. unteered, If no one else could be found, to take charge of a rellef ex- pedition as soon as lce conditions | would permit. Stefansson wired, asking me to come to Toronto, where he was again trying to get flnancial help from the Canadian government. There I met Allan Crawford's parents. and If there had been any doubts left in my mind as to whether or not I should go, they dispelled them. They were trusting that Lorne Knight would guide their boy. I knew tr big. good-hearted fellow that he w Knight was no leader—knew that he was not mentally cquipped to save himself or others. 1t was not until I had assumed di- rection of the expedition and obtained access to the records of the company that I really began secretly to fear the tragedy I was to find. I had snown their youth and inexperience but had not suspected how pathetical- 1y inadequate were the supplies they took. They had bought their own stores in Seattle and the invoices showed a pitiful lack of judgment. I knew that, even with the most careful ra- tloning, their food must be exhausted | before the second season set in. Then they would be dependent entireiy up- lon ~their skill as huntsmen, and there wasn't, co far as 1 could find out, a real hunter among them. Stefansson mever did succeed In persuading the Canadian government to finance the expedition. Instead, they sent him to England and told him to get Great Britain's support. When my orders to sail finally reached New York, I had but eight Qdays to make the last boat out of eattle for Nome. 1 arrived on the 15th of July, chartered the motor- ship Donaldson, put her in seawor- thy condition and outfitted my expe- dition. . On_the 3d of August we headed north. It was a strange de- parture. Three days before we were ready to sall the United States cutter Bear Lrought me a note from the Siberian government, advising me to wire Pet- ropaviock for permission to go to ‘Wrangel, and Informing me that if I fafied to reach them to call at one of two other Siberlan ports and present my credentials. Y wired to Stefansson for orders He cabled me to proceed direct, sa ing that he had been in touch with officials in London and that any ques- tions arising would be settled by the international court, and not by any predatory expedition. Stefanswon Wires Orders. Stefansson’s wire ended with in- structions to continue the occupation of the island. i On August 3 we headed north. We had been working day and night and were in _a strange state of excite- ment. There were siX white men in the party. One of us was destined to spend the next year on Wrangel Is- nd. None of us could do more than guess how his predecessors had fared, Would we find them alive or dead? Would we find them at all? As far as the eye could reach there was nothing but a vast expanse of clear blue water. How far beyond ice lay, we could not know. One thing was certain. Whatever lay ahead we would not turn back until the fate of Wrangel Island was settled.
