i SILENCE CAUSES * GREATEST ALARM (Continued from First Page) berto Nobile, commander of the Italia who had established the en- campment on the ice island. Then the four other men of the Italia carried Ceccioni, suffering terribly from his injuries and only having had the most meager medicants, to where Lundborg had made his first landing. They did not want the Swedish flyer to have to wait in case he could make a second landing. Flew in Second Time. Lundborg flew in the second time, circling the camp and brought cheers from.the little group of men, then attempted a landing. His plane wouyld not etand the second landing test on the slippery and rough ice. It nosed over and crashed. The four Italians attempted to carry Ceccloni bacig to the camp. Their ‘strength was exhausted from long hours on the cold ice floe and lack of nourishment. Ceccioni was heavy. They could not carry him out. Found Dead. Then Cecciono was left out under the open eky for the entire night. He was found the rext day, dead, a victim of both his injuries and of being frozen under the calm, clear arctic sky. The group questioned whether, however, he evar wagld have recov- ered from his wounds had he been removed. They were willing to gamble on this and insisted he be taken out after Nobile. But it was pointed out he long had been suffer- ing severe injuries without expert medical. treatment. Meanwhile today Giuseppe Biagn, radio operator and one of the four men stranded on the ice floe, ra- dioed that the group fast was losing courage and urged that relief be rushed. 9 Become Embittered. "Rescue geems so near and ygt so far,” the operator tapped out on the little short wave station that has been set up on the island. The men are embittered by the ir- ritable cold and are becoming mor- ose as they watch planes circle over- head without being able to land. “It is too cold to wash or bathe™ Biaggi reported. He 23id the men were haggard and unkempt and that their en- campment was exposed to the cold north wind. The tent offers only the poorest protection. Relief for the men {s question- able. The Russian aviator Chukh- novsky, aboard the ice breaker Krassin, broke the runners of his plane when he returned from a re- connoitering flight. He is unable to re-start. Need Repairs. The Swedish planes, owing to con- stant hard use and to having been flown through storms and landed in salt water, urgently are in need of repairs. The Italian reliet planes of Majors Maddalena and Penzo need new motors and these can not be installed within six days. Regarded Dead. Aboard the Steamship Braganza, July 10 (UP)—Six men, comprising . three members of the crew of the dirigible Italia and three men who started in an attempt to rescue them today definitely were regarded as dead and search for them was abandoned. Captain Thornborg, director of the Bwediah relief expedition, wirelessed from the steamer Quest that hopes of saving Finn Malmgren, Capt. Adalberto Mariano and Captain Filippo Zappi—who started to walk from the Nobile ice encampment— and the relief expedition of Captain Bora were at an end Thought Lost. These four men with the drivers of two dog sleigh teams in the Sora party—Van Dongen and Warming— were regarded dead. Thornborg's message also brought the disheartening word that the four members of the Italia crew, now stranded on a desolate ice floe off North East Land, shortly would have to be abandoned to their deaths unless rescue came within a few days. Hollander Lost. Amsterdam, July 10 (UP)—Loss ©of the rescue party of Captain Sora ~a party that set out across North East Land searching for Finn Malm- gren and two other members of the dirigible Italia—means the death of one of the youngest and most in- trepid dog sled drivers in the arctic, Sjet Van Dongen. The Hollander is only 21 years old, yet he is a veteran of five win- ters in the arctic and is reputed to be one of the best known dog team drivers ever known in Spitzbergen DOCTORS ENDORSE QUICK, SAFE WAY TO END HEADACHE Quick, sure relieft—then the fjoy of freedom from that tired, nerv- ous. “headachy” fe:ling. This, briefly, is the experience of Miss Theresa McCartney and num- bers of New Britain people.

Food waste which remained n her intestines was her whole system, sick most of th On the doctor's advice then she bs- gan using Aver's Tablets—a hospital cer- tified compound of pure, healthful vege- table extracts.

(Copyright 1928, by United Press.) Aboard the Steamer Quest in Murchison B: July 10 (UP)— Four members of the crew of the dirigible Italia—now waiting discon- solately for rescue or death on a desolate ice floe off North East Land —today are haggard and near ex- haustion as they walch their limit- ed food supply slowly give out, Their plight 18 disheartening for rescue now appears next to impos- sible as the ice fast is breaking up. destroying chances of a plane land- ing near them. These four men—Lieut. Alfredo Viglieri, Felice Troiani, Giuseppe Biagi and Prof. F. Behounek—have been on this ice floe with a limited supply of provisions since May 25, fighting cold and exposure. Their condition readily cam be imagined by the condition of Lieut. Einar- Paal Lundborg, Swedish flyer res- cued last week. He is normally a strong ruddy northerner. When rescued by his pal, Lieutenant Schyberg. he was so exhausted and haggard that he fainted immediately upon entering the rescue plane. Lundborg reported the food of the vigliere group was scarce. Most of the provisions dropped from the air fell either into the sea or completely out of reach. They are strictly rationed by Lieut. Viglieri who was placed in | charge of the encampment after| Lundborg rescued General Umberto Nobile. The supplies are guarded closely and the main food is bear | meat. They cut the bear meat with gcis- eors inasmuch as the encampment has no knives. It is cooked with | solidified, alcohol and eaten with a | horn as they have no table utensile. Thers is ons small bottle of cog- nac and two packages of cigarettes.\ The coast is only a few miles away from the present location of their camp. It is tantalizingly visible on clear days—stretching out as a haven of relief. Constantly the four men must fight off the desire to walk in an attempt to reach this land. They know it is a forlorn hope, one probably that will mean immediate death. The experience of Captain Sora and the three men of | the Finn Malmgren group has taught them that, for those four apparently perished in that short walk. Hunt for Amundsen.
