The great balloon duplicated, within three days the feat of the three-engined airplane ‘Miss Jose- phine Ford,” commanded by Lieutenant Commander Richard E. Byrd, with the difference that Commander Byrd returned to Kings Bay, Spitzbergen, a 1,600) mile non-stop flight, while the Norge continues a 2;000 mile journey toward Nome. Roald Amundsen, commander of, the third expedition to reach _ Uie North Pole and the first hu- wired yesterday to Ralph Lomen, Norwegian consul at Nome, to have 100 men ready to lower the .» dirigible, “The Norge left Spitzbergen: at 10 a. m, Norwegian time, or 4 a. m. eastern standard time, Tues- day, and sailed over the pole with the 17 members of its crew at 1 a, m. today, Norwegion time, or, seven, o'clock last night, eastern) standard time.

At 2 o’clock this morning the flight, as far as it had gone, had been! successful, Me As the airship reached 89 de-| grees north - latitude, 12 east longitude before midnight, it was) misty and a slight breeze was | blowing. The Norge was travel-) ing at a height. of 2,360 feet. The | off but remained at Kings Bay to prepare, in the words of Lieut. Alton N. Parker, of his party, to “investigate every foot of real es- tate near -the,:pole for Uncle Sam.” 2 . Twenty-five men have now seen the North Pole—six in the Peary expedition, Commander Byrd and his pilot, Floyd Bennett, and 17 on the Norge. The Norge . Teached the pole in 15 hours from Kings Bay, Commander Byrd re- quired 15 hours and 52 minutes te go to the pole and back to Kings Bay in his airplane, and Peary, using dog sleds, took eight months for the trip to the pole and back to civilization, Approximate Speed The Norge traveled at approxi- mately fifty miles an hour, and it was estimated that if she’ kept this pace, should reach Point Bar- row, en route to Nome, at 10 p. m. tonight, eastern standard time. Staffansen, Canadian explorer, now living in New York, expressed delight today that the Byrd and Elisworth and. Amundsen expedi- tions were realizing a prophesy of his made three years ago, that airships and dirigibles flying over the top of the world, would open. the shortest and most practicable routes between the eastern ‘and western hemispheres, The Norge is 348 feet long, was inflated with 19,000 cubic meters of hydrogen at Kings Bay, and loaded with 6,000 kilograms of benzine fuel. Its best speed is 62 miles an hour. It was built in 1923 by the State Airship Factory at Rome as the NH-1 for the Italian air service, Italy awaited news from the final hop “with the religious calm with which one awaits the divine crowning of all human endeavors.” Amundsen, who is one of Nor- “way'’s national heroes, was beaten to the North Pole by Robert E> Peary. He set out for the South Pole by dog sled, reaching it De- ecember 14, 1911, beating four rival expeditions from as many countries, Roald Amundsen last year made the first attempt to reach the North Pole by airplane but failed. temperature was 10,4 degrees) above zero, | WORLD.
