(Copyrighted by Associated Press, 1928) New York, Aug. 7 (®—The ques- tion of what the well dressed ant- arctic explorer should wear may have been answered for some time to come by the wardrobes provided for the men who are going to Ant- | arctica with Commander Richard E. Byrd. No part of the equipment has received more careful attention than the garments to be donned by the explorers when they reach the outh polar land of snow and fce, gale and blizzard and temperatures | that tumble to 60 below. The opin- ions of many experts on polar clothing were obtained before the elections were made. It is necessary that the clothes be warm, yet light and roomy enough to permit perfect frecdom of movement and so skillfully woven that wind, the terror of the ex- plorer, will be barred. An airplane cloth, meeting these requirements, has been chosen for the summer underwear material. W. |Over this the men will wear during |shirts, two sweaters, be of heavy wool, and the wind- breaker will give way to fur outer jackets. Caps, part fur and part silk, will {be the summer headgear, but in {winter the men will discard these | for fur parkees fitted with strips of | wolverine fur to cover chin and | mouth. Wolverine is the only fur on which the moisture of the breath does not freeze. Jersey gloves inside moosehide mittens will cover the hands in |summer. Heavy wool mittens, fash- |ioned like socks and worn under |fleece-lined reindeer or sealskin | mittens, will be the mode in win. | ter. | Alpine boots of cowhide, rubber- |soled lumberjack’s hoots, reindeer moccasins and Eskimo mukluks will be worn over heavy hip-length socks three-eights of an inch thick. {Inside the footwear is a half-inch [felt inner sole and a padding of |senna grass. The felt keeps out the {cold; the grass absorbs moisture, Each man will have two suits of | heavy and two suits of light under- wear, ten pairs of socks, two pairs | of breeches, six pairs of boots, two .“’)31!‘5 of moccasins, two woolen one reindeer Hart, Clarence F.

Worry About Greeks That Are Held by Bandits Athens, Aug. 7 (A—Anxiety over the fate of two candidates for parlia- ment held captive by brigands was ircreasing today. Response had | come to the government's offer to ransome the kidnaped men. | Bince Eleutherios Venizelos, prime minigter, has publicly declared his determination to stamp out brigan- dageit was assumed that the kid- | napers were making for the Al- | banian border with their victims. ' There they would turn over the fwo candidates, Constantino Melas and M. Milonas, former under secretary of finance, and then get into Al- bania, which has no extradition treaty with Greece, The government was willing to pay the 5,000,000 drachmas (about $65,000) demanded in order fo avoid postponing 'the voting in the national election Friday in the Epirus district. What was construed as an an swer to Premier Venzilos' announce ment. that Greece would wipe out th: outlaws, came in a report fron Janina. It told of the kidnaping o a lawyer named Giras in the san: nefghborhood where the two poli ticlans were captured. The price for Giras' freedom was set at 1,000,00¢ drachmas.

Y, Aug. 7 (P—Dusty records, most of them nearly a quarter of a century old, were under Governor Smith's scru- tiny today as the democratic presi- dential nominee refreshed his mem- ory on his stand, as a rather obscure asemblyman from New York's East Side, on various proposals. The governor at his desk again after ten days of vacationing and a round of important political confer- ences in New York, turned his own searchlight on his record to be in a position to answer opponents assail- ing his stands, particularly on legis- lation affecting the saloon. Subject Uncertain Whether he will have something to say to the public on the subject remains uncertain. He has told in- quirers that until he completes his study he himself will not know what he will do. The activity of the nominee chief- ly grows out of the blast against him from William Allen White, the | Kansas editor, who last week made | charges challenging Smith’s attitude | as a legislator toward the salocn, gambling and commercialized vice but later eliminated the latter two | While taking it easy on the south shore ot Long Island, the governor | steadfastly refused to pay any at- tention to the attack of White who | has gone to Europe, but now that he is back where he has access to the records he is building up his own case, | In that endeavor the democratic | standard bearer has not only the aid of trusted office assistants but of Mrs. Henry Moskowitz, one of the | advisers, in whom he has great con- fidence. She is in Albany, tempor- arily forswearing her duties as | publicity director of Smith's cam- paign, to assist her chief on this important mission. Render Service | Mrs. Moskowitz also is expected to render service in the preparation of the governor's speoch of acceptance. He has it partly shaped up, but it probably will be another week he- fore confidential coples are handed | to the preas. The address will be de- | livered two weeks from fomorrow night, and it is Bmith’s intention to | have copies in the hands of all newspapers before the event. In addition to work today on his ASK THE WOMAN WHO HAS ONE! ASSIFTED ADS | G. 0. P. to Fight Albany, N. Y., Aug. 7 (A—Albany republicans, in their attempt to put this county, which in recent years nsually has gone democratic, in the Hoover column next November have set up a campaign base within a stone’s throw of the east steps of the capitol where Governor Smith will deliver his speech of accept- ance. A store room. across the strect from the capitol lawn, has been taken over by the Albany county republican committee. On the win- dows are emblazoned “For Presi- dent, Herbert V. Hoover—tor Vice President, Charles Curtis.” From his private office in the | state's building. the governor can | look across at the headquarters of his foes.
