SNOW HILL ISLAND, Weddell Sea, Antarctica, January 5 (By Wireless). —Another section of the unknown has been wrested from the great Antarc- tica.

One big feature discovered Thurs-| day is a fjord directly behind what is | marked on the charts as Cape Sobral, and which we found was in fact anj island. The fjord, walled with glaciers | and floored with gaping crevasses, in- dents Nordenskiold Coast and runs| for about 30 miles northwest into| Detroit Aviation Plateau. Together with another deep fjord extending from Larsen Bay, it changes conspic- uously the general configuration of Trinity Peninsula, as marked at pres- ent on the charts. I named it James W. Ellsworth Fjord, after my father. Squalls Handicap Survey. For many days we waited for weather which would allow us to fly some distance from our base and make a record of the new areas dis- covered. Thursday came our first op- portunity. It was limited in com- parison to what we hoped for, since after flying southward for about 160 miles snow squalls on a wide front, extending northwest and southeast, barred our way. It was with some difficulty we got the Polar Star into the air. The new snow of January 1 had arifted into low sastrugi in patches on the glazed surface of the snow hill island bar- rier, and these sastrugi acted as would a series of morasses on a ter- rain landing field. Each one slowed up the speed of the plane with a marked tendency to turn the ma- chine over on its nose. Time and time again Balchen brought the air- plane into the wind, which was blow- ing down the slope of the best take- off area, but we could not get off on the up grade. After almost an hour of taxiing, Balchen boldly turned to a dangerous down-hill slope on the southern side of the island, and, in a side wind, opened up the 525 horsepower motor to 1,780 revolutions, and our movable pitch propellor finally lifted us clear. Clouds Close In. After circling_the Wyatt Earp, we crossed Snow Hill Island, Lockyer Island and over the glacier-fringed southern end of Ross Island to Cape Longing. Then, skirting Sobral, we passed over Lindenberg Island and between Robertson Island and Seal Nunataks. Here the clouds closed in above us. Light conditions were ex- tremely bad. In a few minutes we could see heavy snow squalls descending, and we had to turn southwestward along the storm edge. The air was extremely bumpy and visibility was reduced at times to two miles. But as we neared King Oscar Second Coast and turned due west, we came to clear weather. We had been flying over the Larsen shelf ice, which extended from Rob- ertson Island slightly toward Cape Disappointment, then swung south- westward until hidden by the storm clouds. We reached the high coastal area a few miles south of Evans Inlet, then, turning north, came to Hektoria Fjords. Here we turned easterly over Tilberg Island and saw a long fjord, ending in two steep glaciers, extend- ing from Cape Ruth for about 15 miles to the north. Following closely along Norden- skiold Coast, we observed an inlet about 10 miles from Cape Ruth, and then, behind Sobral we saw the deep, wide fjord, which I have already mentioned. Ten miles to the north- east of this and in the bottom of Lar- sen Bay another deep, uncharted fjord was seen. We crossed over this to Sjogren Fjord, and noticed that the land be- tween Sobral Island, Cape Longing and Sjogren Fjord is very rugged, and | several mountain peaks reached up to | near our altitude, which was then 5,500 feet. Uncharted Island Found. At the entrance to Sjogren Fjord there is an uncharted Island, remark- able for its sharp-topped peak, and three other islands of considerable size, also uncharted, were observed in Prince Gustav Channel. The north- western coast of Ross Island is much indented with bays and fjords, and, lying between Ross tnd Vega Islands is another one, conspicuous but hither- to uncharted. Following the coast of Prince Gustav Channel to opposite Sydney Herbert Sound, we came to a remarkable low passage across Trinity Peninsula. The width of the peninsula at this place is about 15 miles, and, through the pass, ‘we could see the peaks of Livingstone Island about 50 miles further north than Tower, an Astrolabe Islands. We had apparently exhausted the possibilities of conspicuous geograph- ical discovery in this area, so we turned back over Ross Island to a landing at our base. We had been 2 hours and 28 minutes in the afr, averaging about 160 miles per hour. Fridey the weather clouded over again, and there was no chance for further fying.

By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, January 5—Paul V. Betters, executive director of the United States Conference of Mayors, announced today that the major cities are willing to spend $1,500,000,000 on public works if they can obtain Fed- eral loans without interest. Recalling that he had proposed dividing the needy into employable MR. AND MRS. H. BRADLEY DAVIDSON, Whose wedding at Pinehurst, N. C., last Thursday united two prominent families of Washing- ton and Boston. The bride, the former Elva Statler, is the daugh- ter of the late E. M. Statler, mil- lionaire hotel magnate, and Mrs. Statler of Boston. Mr. Davidson is the son of the late H. Bradley Davidson of Washington, promi- nent real estate man, and Mrs. Davidson, a granddaughter of the late Mark Hanna. STATE-L.S. POLICE FORGE SUUGGESTED 18 Anti-Crime Proposals Are Made by Senate Committee. By the Associated Press. A State-Federal police foree, com- posed of men trained -in the Justice Department’s ferreting school, was disclosed yesterday to be one of the 18 anti-crime recommendations by the Senate Anti-Racket Committee. Senator Copeland, Democrat, of New York, chairman of the committee, said 35 States had approved the plan, call- ing for a new type of correlation of Federal and State anti-crime forces. Under the bill, the States would select men to be trained in the De- partment of Justice School for Spe- cial Agents. These superpolicemen would return to their home States, be vested with State police powers and operate under the supervision of | the Attorney General. A prospectus stated that Kansas end Georgia disapproved the idea; | West Virginia and Virginia were un- certain, and that nine States had not yet been heard from. President Roosevelt has said he would recommend that Congress strengthen erime-fighting machinery. Attorney General Cummings prob- ably soon will announce the detailed plan for a criminological institute. Justice Department officials believe the institute will include an academy for the training of peace officers other than Federal operatives. Widening of the control of the firearms traffic—at present limited to regulatory powers over transactions in machine guns and sawed-off shot- guns—was asked by the Senate com- mittee. Would Give License Power. ‘This bill would give the Federal Government licensing power over the manufacture and sale of all forms of firearms. Another measure would require ju- dicial officers taking bail to inquire into the sources of the security. The committee has found that often when mobsmen are arrested the funds they offer for bail are loot from robberies and kidnapings. Another proposal would give the Secretary of Agriculture power to reg- ulate more strictly the interstate poul- try trade. Calling this business often “dishonest, corrupt and vile” the committee said it found that it costs $321 to bring poultry from Iowa te Jersey City, a matter of five days, and $387 to forward it to New York city in five hours. Wider Fraud Laws Urged. Present laws make it a Federal offense to use the mails to defraud. The committee proposed that the use any means of communication, radio or wire, to defraud be made unlawful. In Chicago the committee said it found that a business house sold all forms of crooked dice, cards and gambling apparatus. As a result a A committee investigator found in' upstate New York that salacious liter- ature peddled to high school children had been brought by automobile from Pennsylvania. Hence a measure was| introduced to make interstate person- al transportation of such material an offense. Other bills would make it a felony to jump bail imposed by a Federal Court and to aid fugitives who have fled across a State line to avoid tes- tifying or prosecution.
