o] NEW BRITAIN HERALD ESTABLISHED 1870 RUSSIAN RESCUERS NOW HONT 6 HORE Ten Men Already Snatched From | Death in Arctic FINNISH FLIER SAVES TWO Takes Captain Sora and Engineer Van Dongen Off Foyn Island— Amundsen and Others Still Miss- ing May Be Found Soon. Third Scholarship Awarded to Hansen Kings Bay, Spitzbergen, July 14| #—With ten men snatched from death in the Arctic, rescue planes and the Russian icebreaker Krassin | were intent today on reaching a spot some 30 miles to the east of Foyn| Island. There it was believed that six men who drifted away in the| balloon part of the Italia after the fatal crash on May 25, and possibly Roald Amundsen and his five com- panions on a French rescue seaplane | might be found.

They were picked of | oyn Island by a Finnish airplane 1ind brought to Kings Bay. Dependence was placed on the Soviet flyer Chukhnovsky for locat- ng the exact position of the men aast of Foyn Island since his keen es had spotted the Italian Cap- ‘ains Filippo Zappi and Alberto Mariano and directed the Krassin to their rescue from an iceberg. The airman and four companions were forced down on the ice near Cape Platen, damaging their plane. Tney succeeded in reaching land, estab- lished a base and busied themselves in repairing the broken landing gear of their craft. From this point it was expected that they would mn!‘(e frequent scouting flights and again summon the Krassin to the rescue. Ttalians to Assist | Ttalian planes will also join in the searching work over the ice of Qus2en Victoria sea in the neighbor-| hood of 80 degrees, 45 minutes north and 60 degrees 31 minutes west. It is known that Roald Amundsen held the view that the balloon part of the Italia would be found in this loca-| tion and the hope is held that he and his companions may have reach- | »d this point and become marooned with them. Dr. Fridiof. Nansen, Norwegian explorer, has always| thought that the missing Italians| would be found there and the Soviet| rescue commission holds a similar ciew, The Norwegian {cebreaker Bragan- m was making its way toward the samp of a marooned rascuer today— | Varming, a Dane.

American fliers who met Captain Carranza during his visit to this country joined today in expressing sorrow at his untimely death and praising his courage and ability. Following are some of the tri- butes: Commander Richard E. Byrd—All aviation grieves with Mexico at the loss of this great pilot. He cannot | be replaced and his name is add:d to the long list of pioneers who have done so much to advance aviation nd build up good will between na- National | Miss Amelia Earhart—I am deep- Iy shocked at the news of the death of Captain Carranza. No loss among army aviators could be more regret- ted. He was known as a magnifi- cent fiier and it scems to me that his death is a very great loss to aviation. Arthur Goebel—To mest Capt. Carranza was to like him; to see him fly was to recognize him as a great pilot. The hand of fate took a great man. Clarence D. Chamberlin—I met Capt. Carranza the day he landed at Mitchel Field and in the short time that he was here I learned to like him and appreciate him. Mex- ico and Latin America has lost its brilliant aviator. Many expressions of sorrow were voiced by official Washington among them that of Manuel C. Tellez, Mexican ambassader te the United States, and William P. McCracken, Jr., assistant secretary of commerce in charge of aviation. Ambassador Tellez said—All T can say at a time of such great tragedy and misfortune for my country is to express regret for the loss of such a true hero and patriot as Capt. Car- ranza. T and the emba: staff have been deeply touched by his death as will all of Mexico. Capt. Carranza visited this country on a misston of £00d will, to symbolize the growing of friendly understanding between our two countries, and now he has sacrificed himself in that endeavor. Let is suffice to wish that his herole death will but serve to contribute more to the good cause Mr. McCracken said—It {s with the. deapest regret that T learn of the unfortunate acefdent resulting in Capt. Carranza’s death. T am sure that the future commercial aviation intercourse which will develop be- tween the two countries will stand as a monument to the supreme sac- rifice which he has made. i : .

He had scorned adverse weath- €r reports. He had taken off in face of storms and he had died—his plane a wreck—in an obscure field near here.

Instead of being acclaimed by thousands of his cheering country. men, Captain Carranza’s mangled body was discovered by a berry- picker. And then he was not known. The berry-picker, frightened by his discovery, rushed away to report what he had found. Carranza left Roosevelt Field, N Y. at 7:18 p. m. Thursday. Within an hour the flight ended in an electric storm which sent the Ryan monoplane crashing though the tree-tops, & flaming meteor. Carranza’s body fell 26 fest from the plane, his parachute unopened and a flashlight clasped in his hand. in the breast-high shrubbery. Onlytwo or thres mechanics wit- nessed the hop-off of Mexico's “Lone Eagle.” He started after one of a series of thunderstorms.
