The “Sentinel” Has
No Interest in
The “Bulle '

It has been brought to the at-
tentiou of the "Sentinel" that con-
siderable confusiod- exists in the
public mind regarding its possible
connection with the new Sunday
newspaper. The Bulletin. recently
started here.

The "Sentinel" wishes as cm-
phatlcally as possible to declare it
has absolutely no interest in the
,new publication. This fact is set
forth both in Justice to The "Sen-
tinel" and the weekly.

The followmg was overheard in
a barber shop. One man said:

“I've read The ‘Sentinel' for
forty years. If its publishers are
responsible for the Sunday sheet 1
don't want it in my home any
longer "

Another declared he was sure the
weekly was being fathered by The
"Sentinel." A third was equally
convinced it was not.

To eradicate this misunderstand-
ing. the publishers of 'l'he'“Sentl-
nel" state that they are in no way
interested in the new publication.
have nothing whatsoever to do
with it. and do not even know who
its backers are.

Treasury Department Issues
Rigid Orders Against For-
eign Liquor Rations.

WASHINGTON. June 1:. --r'i'he
treasury will stead pat in its determin-
atiou to enforce rigidly the recent su-
eufie'u’rt decision harunk
6r from'territoriai watm critic"
United States. ~lt so informed cus-
toms officers in new instructions is-
sued an Official declared that further
misunderstandings with foreia'n s0v~
ornments may be avoided. .
The French government. through
its embassy here. had suggested to
the treasury during the day that.
each member of the crew of the liner
France, in New York harbor. should
be allowed to have his wine ration of
one-half a Micro day as required by

 

 

had left her home port piior to June
10. the effective day of the regula-
tions. Embassy officmls took the po-
sition. treasury officials said. that
after the liquor stores of vessel had
been scaled by customs authorities.
the former practice of opening the
stores for issuance of the wine ra-
tions should be followed on this trip.

While the first international com-
plication'to result from the appli-
cation of the court's drastic con-
struction of the Volstead act threat-
ened at first to develop serious con-
sequences. most treasury officials to-
night were inclined to the view that
the difficulties will “blow over" and
that hereafter general compliance by
the foreign ships with the American
law may be expected.

Treasury officials declined to dis-
cuss in any way published reports
that some of the foreign ships. now
in American watersuwere supplying
their crews with liquor rations. No
official reports, they said. has been
received to that effect.

NEW YORK. June 12 .—Officials of
the French line today denied reports
that liquor was senod yesterday to
members of the crews of vessels of
the line now in port. in violation of
the treasury department's prohibition

and the men are being paid for the
wine rations which. in accordance
with French law. they receive under
ordinary circumstances. it was stated.
i Antonio Bordes. general kept-esca—
tative of the line. declared he was
certain the ships’ liquor stores were
under seal. If limlor was in the
possession of employee of the line.
he declared, it must have been of
bootleg nature and origin.

Customs authorities ignored the .re-
ports and refused to discuss them
beyond to say that the “law is being
enforced and nothinegd gore." 3::
remark was into mean
ships’ stores werrgebeing sealed and
that no releases‘from the seal were
being Permitted.

‘~ The North Pole in TenYears

DONALD B. MacMILLAN'

DR.

By NE.‘ Service.

“'ISCASSET, M.c. June 12.—Tour-
ist trips to the North Pole within 10
days!

That‘s not a hot weather dream but
the prediction of Dr. Donald 13. Mac-
Millan. foremost Arctic explorer.
whose expedition sails from here for
the Far North June 23 in the tiny
auxiliary schooner Bowdoin.

Naturally. the route will be through

only lighter—than-alr machines. dirigi-
bloc of the Zeppelin type, will be
used.

“I feel certain," he says. "that huge
airships with ample passenger room
and adequate supplies soon will be
running on regular schedule to the
North Pole. visiting the historic spots

-where courageous explorers have for-

feited their lives in battling the grim
north with dogs and sledges.
Polar Tours Safe.

“I expect to see these tours adver-
tised among the alluring appeals to
visit the Orient. and the Riviera. Also.
for this type of aircraft I believe the
trips will be comparatively safe. yet
there will be the greater thrill of ad-
venturepthe beckoning of almost un-
known territory to add spice to the
Journey. ,

"On the other hand. I question the
value of the present type of heavier-
than-air machine for Arctic work.
These airplanes need good landing
and taking-off places and these are
few and far between in the Arctic. It
is virtually impossible to land on the
jagged ice of the Polar Sea.

"That is \v ‘ I fear that it Raold
Amundsen sluts in hopping off
from Alaska this month for the North
Pole in his all-metal biplane. he and
his pilot will be going to certain death.

“I do not believe that Amundsen
has one chance in a thousand of ca-
caping with his life if he penetrates
far beyond the Arctic Circle. Even
should he be able to land successfully
on the rough ice of the Polar Sea. he
and his pilot would certainly starve or
freeze to death before they could
make their way to a settlement.

Doubts Amundscn‘s Success.

”His only chance is a continuous
flight of several thousands of miles
from Alaska across the Pole and over
to the northern'part of Siberia. To do
that means he must better the re-
markablo record of Lieutenants Mac-

flight across the Unimd States. Their
.hop was made under nearly ideal con-
ditions. while Amundsen will face con~
\ditions so adverse as to deter anyone
but a m.an of his dogged periistence.

"Amundsen has done three things
that no other explorer ever has done.
He was the first at the.South Pole and
he went ,through the Northwest and

Now he is seeking to crown his
achievements by .being the first man
ever to flyto the Pole. .

"Slight as it is, it is his only chance
of getting there; for no other man is
likely to make the goal with dogs and
sledges as did Peary in 1909. It was
Peary‘s life work and even he told me
he doubted if he could make it again
once out of three times. \‘o other
white man could get the Eskimos lo
accompany him.’

ON PARKING

Says Merchants Lack Con-
centration on Ordinance
. ——Hopes Law Remains.

HAS 200 SUGGESTIONS

Tells Diners— Looks for
Trouble Over Zoning
System.

 

 

 

 

Mayor Barton said at the dinner to
Rev. J. B. Werner. at the Country

"W’e changed the original parking
ordinance after an injunction had
been clapped on the city officials to
prevent its enforcement. And now the
merchants are not satisfied with the
new ordinance. The Common coun-
cil has received two hundred sug-
gestions for still another ordinance. 5

"The trouble is there is no cou-
ccntration of opinion. Until there is
aeoncentratlon of opinion. I hope the
parking ordinance remains as. it is.
If every man would- stand behind
whatever administration is in power.
you would see real. progres.

"We are going to take up soon a
zoning system pad I suppose that we-
wlll run up against the same sort of
conditions as we have in the parking
ordinance. Yet. nearly every large
city has had the mine trouble.

"W'hat we need is co-operatton of
all parts of the city and then you will
have a city to be proud of."
