Bullock of Mil | waukee told the convention of the chants have lost great opportunities to advance business because of failure to | appreciate the pride of newspaper re yorters in their profession, and he | asked the lumbermen partic ularly to | help themselves by helping the report ers 1o get news. “As an average newspaper man,” | said Mr. Bullock, “I want to tell you | that the poorest newspaper reporter feels that when he goes to interview | & business man he is the official repre- sentative of the great American pub- | lie, which is entitled to know the news of the world. By turning away, often | with discourtesy, the newspaper re- porter who seeks news of the husiness | world, the business men of the coun- try have lost great opportunities, and imllnd of making friends, they have often made enemies. “There are two ways in which this condition is being remedied. One is by a more liberal attitude of the busi- ness man toward the reporter, the other is by advertising. Treat the re- porter as a co-worker, not as an offen- | sive intruder.

P. Morgan & Co. to shadow a man named Morton Sultzer, who, according to Egan, had been divulg- ing information from the Seymour & Seymour offices relative to cables and correspondence of the Morgan firm He tried to “shadow” the man, but found it useless, he said.

The | scarcity of food became so serious |that he decided to leave the greater part of his men while he set off for | |help. Rations for the men left behind | | were stored in a hole dug in the ice. | | After a journey of three weeks, such as probably is unique in the an- nals of Antarctie expeditions, Sir Er-| nest reached South Georgia. There he | sought the assistance of whalers for | the rescue of the party on Elephant | island, but this proved to be impossi- | ble, owing to lge prevalence of un-| favorable weather conditions. The message says there is urgent| need of help for the marooned men Will S8end Whaler. In view of the information re- ceived from Lieutenant Shackleton, the plans of the government for send- ing a relief expedition from England will be abandoned and a whaler will| be sent from the Falkland islands to tescue the marooned men. After a careful examination of the text of Lieutenant Shackleton’s orig- inal_cable, Sir Douglas Mawson, the explorer, said today: “Instead of drifting until April 9 of | this year, as has been ou‘luted. it is quite rlnin that the Endurance was | stuck in the ice floes from March of last year until October 27, when the pressure became too great. The En- durance was crushed and sank on the latter date in the middle of Weddell Sea “Lieutenant Shackleton abandoned the sinking ship, dragging the whale- boats and supplies on an ice floe, on which he continued to drift until April | |9 of this year, It appears that having | | at that time reached open water, the lieutenant and his companions | launched a whaleboar and sailed for Elephant Island of the South Shet- land group, arriving there April 16. “There the lieutenant left twenty- Get Under Skin?
