Determine How Much Truth."
"A'iiun(I,u is K"itiK to try to de
termine jn-t how muih truth there
h in the tlirory that there ii an
irt'fan iiirrent which K'e over the
top hi the world. Miiis wrecked, in
the North I'aiitic ocean have been
found on the other side of the world,
in tli" Atlantic ocean. This has led
ti the helicf that the whole ice park
load in this current and that a ship
Muck in the ice will he carried over
the top of the world and out of the
ice on the other side."
Amundsen believe that he can ro
over the top of the world by getting
into the ke jam and drifting with
the current.
His little fhi, the Maud, built
especially for him in Norway, iss
ncarinn readiness for the trip. Great
quantities of hard bread are aboard
and. strangely enough, some of the
bread be took with him to the south
pole. This bread must be moistened
:'nd softened before it can be eaten.
' Thousands of cans of mcat, hun
dreds of cans of fruits, jams, jellies,
randies', Hour enough to last seven
years are aboard the Maud.
.Scientific instruments, which will
help him determine new air currents
and new lands, are being installed.
Two airplanes from England are be
ing made ready.
May Take Five Years.
Amundsen says that the trip will
take from three to five years. Al
though the object of his voyage may
tarry him far from the north pole,
1 is really anxious to reach the pole.
; '"It will be a great thing to have
leached both the north pole and the'
south pole," he told Hammer, his
closest associate.
Amundsen, discoverer of the south
pole, is no stranger to the far north.
fc spent over a year in the vicinity
of the magnetic north pole. He, ac
cording to Hammer, was the first
man to negotiate the Northwest pas
sage, a voyage of discovery which
has fired tho mind of man since
America was', discovered, but which
never was even partially successful
until Auuinfsen succeeded.
Early in June the Maud will sail
from Seattle, with 10 men aboard.
Capt. Oscar Wisting, personal friend
of the explorer, will take command.
Captain Wisting has been with
Amundsen on many journeys.
Amundsen, of course, will be in su
preme command. Dr. H. U. Sver
dmp, eminent scientist, and a rep
resentative of the Norwegian gov
ernment, will he aboard. The other
.seven men will not only be sailors,
tried in dangerous seas, hut scient
ists with the spirit of exploration as
well. It must, indeed, be a hardy
sailor who will ship on the Maud
tor a voyage of five years, perhaps
into eternity.
Maud Will Head North.
; The Maud will head north to the
Arctic Where the broken shores
of the eternal ice-pack wage an un
ending .battle, with the scarcely
warmer waters of the Arctic seas,
the Maud will nose in, find a safe
place, if possible, among the great
chunks which mark the outer edge
of the solid pack, and there wait to
be carried "over the top."
' When the ship - has entered the
ipack the. propeller will be lifted. The
ship has been especially designed to
permit ihis, so that, once on the
other side, the journey to a port
i may be-made under power if neces
sary. , If the ice-pack, as vast as a conti
nent, is carried by a current, as
Amundsen believes, it is possible
that the ship will safely drift across
the polar basin, over the top of the
world from the Pacific to the Atlan
tic. No . one can tell where the
Maud, if it ''goes over the top," will
emerge from the ice-pack. Perhaps
this is Hammer's guess over at
Siberia or Russia.
. Once in the pack there will be lit
tle to do but take observations and
drift. New lands may be discovered
and claimed. Vast mineral deposits,
so valuable that the cost of bringing
them to civilization will not be too
great, may be found. The auxiliary
oil engine of the Maud will be silent,
but the frigid stillness of the undis
turbed Arctic will be blasted by the
mighty roar of two airplanes, which
will be assembled on the ice once the
ship is sa'fely. in the pack.
, Airplanes to Crocs Pole.
Should the ice-pack carry the
Maud within flying distance of the
north pole the two airplanes will
make a little side trip to the pole.
;: No one knows how long such a
journey will take. Amundsen be
lieves that it takes the ice-pack from
three to five years to cross the polar
basin from the Pacific to the Atlan
tic. '
In all the 25 rears that Amundsen
.has been exploring the most remote
parts of the globe he has never be
fore conceived such a journey. Five
vears in the solitary stillness of the
5ce-pack, which fits the top of the
world like, a glistening nightcap!
"PtfWpi-aeven. years," says Amund
sen, with a smile which firings to his

London, March 21. I have obtained from unim

Hammer says, there will be no trou

Senator Reed to Seek,
Re-Election to Senate
St. Louis, Mo., March 21.-(By A.
P.) United States Senator James
A. Reed today announced he would
seek re-election on the democratic
ticket.
Senator Reed said the issues of
the campaign would be "utter failure
of the present national administra
tion to fulfill its promises" and "its
many breaches of faith."

Michigan Department of
Public Safety Clean
up in Florida.
Washington, March 21. Rum run
ners along the Canadian border will
be hunted by wireless, according to
advices received by Commissioner
Ilaynes from Col. Roy C. Vandcr
cook, head of the Michigan depart
ment of public safety.
A system of wireless communica
tion, Colonel Vandcrcook said, will
be installed along the Canadian
Michigan border as a part of the
concerted campaign by United
States and Canadian officials against
the illicit importation of liquor into
this country.
Plan Network of Stations.
"Wireless communication," he said,
"will be of inestimable value in
hampering the operations of rum
runners. One station will be in the
upper peninsular at the state police
f tation at Negaunee, another at Gay
lord; a third in or near Grand Rap
ids, a fourth in or near Detroit, an
other in the Thumb district, compris
ing probably half a dozen sending
and receiving stations to assist the
state police and local officers in ap
prehending violators and broadcast
ing news of rum running. Whether
the department will use wireless
telephones or telegraph depends
upon the outcome of experiments
still to be made. Tlien central sta
tion will be at Lansing."

Dublin. March SI. (By A, P.)
A epccial meeting of tht Dail
Eirtann cabinet has been called for
tonight to consider the situation in
Belfast and along tht Ulster Free
State border. Mcisagri from the
Northern fronteir indicate that both
sides are perfecting war arrange
ments.
Belait. March 21. (By A. P.)
The situation along the Ulster-free
State border was still tense today.
Firing ws renewed at 6 o'clock this
morning from commandeered houses
on the Free State side between
Aughnadoy and Caledon and lasted
two hours.
Telephone communication through
Clogher valley it broken and the
northern aide of the border is com
pletely isolated.
Strong police forces were being
rushed this afternoon to Dromore
district, County Tyrone.
Five houses have been burned in
the vicinity of Omagh, capital of
County Tyrone.
London. March 2I.-(By A. P.)
Dangers of the situation in Ireland
are emphasized by the morning
newspapers, several of which take
the view that little more would be
needed to start actual civil war.. Snip
ing between the entrenched forces
on either side of the Ulster border
has been going on for several days,
and yesterday machine guns were re
ported to have been brought into ac
tion. Meanwhile, disturbances continue
throughout the six county area of
Ulster.
Favor Joint Action.
Moderate opinion in the south fa
vors joint action by the northern
and southern governments to relieve
the tension on the border, according
to the Times Dublin correspondent,
and it is hinted elsewhere that the
earnest conference between Arthur
Griffith and Michael Collins yester
day was partly concerned with the
possibility of securing such action.
It was thought this might involve a
preliminary meeting of Mr. Collins
with premier Sir James . Craig of
Ulster.
Reports of Murder.
Reports of murder, incendiarism
and other outrages in the northern
districts, where the tension between
the Protestants and , Catholics is
most severe, take much space in the
newspapers. The violent denuncia
tions of each faction against the
other suggest apportionmsnt of the
blame in numerous instances is diffi
cult, and perhaps impossible, to de
cide, but they show the fierce state
of factional feeling which danger
ously threatens the general peace.
No late development in the affairs
along the border is reported for the
minute. In consequence of the con
tinued lawlessless in Belfast itself
the car men of the city announced
overnight their determination to
cease work today on the ground that
they were insufficiently protected
from the gunmen.
Raiders last evening surrounded
Glengean lodge, the home of John H.
Allingham, near Trillick, County
Tyrone, close to the free state bor
der. Allingham opened fire on the
raiders and drove thetn off. '
' Encountering Samuel Laird, a
worker on the Allingham farm, who
also was an Ulster "B" special con
stable, they shot and killed him.
After describing the shooting of
Laird Trillick, the correspondent of
the Belfast Telegraph says the
burning of isolated unionist houses
was subsequently begun and that
