STILL NO TRACE OF AMUNDSEN But Hope is Still Entertained for the Safety of the Explorer King's Bay, Spitzbergen, Jane 22.--General Umberto Nobile and the five men marooned with him on the Arctic ice today recejved their second batch of supplies from the air. Major Maddalena and Penso flew their big Italian sea- plane over the camp of the refu- gees, but they found no opportunity to land, and again made use of parachutes to get provisions and radio equipment to the stranded en. While this effort of the fliers was successful, they failed to find any trace of Roald Amundsen and his five companions in the French seaplane piloted by Rene Guilbaud. The Italian aviators also report- ed that they had seen nothing of the baloon portion of the Italia, or of seven men who were carried away with it when the gondola of the big aircraft was torn loose on May 25. Neither was there news of the other three members of the Italia's party who. on: May 30, started to walk across the ice from the place where General Nobile and his com- panions werp spilled. Efiorts are Incressed With Nobile fortified to await rescue by an ice-breaker, increased efforts will be made now to learn the fate of the missing tem explor- ers and six would-be rescuers. All vessels in this section of the Arctic are being motified to watch for the missing. A sealing wes- sel which arrived here today from Tromsoe followed closely the track which the Amundsen party was supposed to fly over. But it saw no trace of the big French machine. Despite the seeming gravity of Amundsen's situation there is a feeling of optimism respecting him among the Arctic experts here.

After the evidence of the 2 complainants had been heard, D. A. J. Swanson, of Oshawa, Morphey's counsel, made a strong appeal for the dismissal of the case on the grounds that there had been no evidence submitted to show that his client had obtained goods on false pretenses, a charge which would virtually amount to theft. He admitted that Morphey had obtained an increased line of credit on certain representation he had made concerning insurance which he claimed was coming due to him. But in the first place he argued that the defendant had been able to open up an account with the plain- tiff firm on the grounds of his gen- eral reputation for good character as admitted by Mr. George Hamilton, a member of the firm, in the witness 0X. When announcing his decision Judge Thompson stated that a breach of a promise of payment when not in Writing gould not be called false pretense according to the legs! inter- pretation, Undoubtedly -he consider- ed that the defendant had misrepre- sented things to the plaintiff company when he spoke about certain insur- ance which was supposed to fall due within a certain period but he was convinced that the Crown had not established its case. Addressing the prisoner, His Honor censored him severely for lying, warning him that it had lead him to risk his reputation and even his liberty. A short review of the gircumstances of the case as related in the witness box by Mr. Fred Clemens and Mr. George Hamilton, members of the firm of George Hamilton and Com- pany wholesale butchers, revealed the fact that Morphey started in the re- tail business in 1926 and opened go account with them. They clai ed that the account kept growing until it reached such proportions that they became anxious. They alleged that Morphey allayed their fears by in- forming them that he had $2,000 in insurance falling due on May 1, 1927, Later he informed them that he had made a mistake in his age when tak- ing out this amount and that the policy did not mature until May, 1928, Last March, according to Hamilton, the defendant told him that he was going to Toronto to arrange $1,000 loan on the policy. This apparently was not done however and Morphey went into bankruptcy. As a result of information laid by Hamilton and Clemens, the charge of obtaining goods on false pretenses was laid and the trial for examination was heard before Magistrate Hind in the Osh- awa city police court. Crown Attor- J. "A. McGibbon acted for the prosecution.

MANCHESTER MAY USE OTTAWA MAN'S PLANNING OF TOWN Scheme of Noulan Cauchon Recommended By British Expert Ottawa, June 23.--The Citizen pub- lishes the following editorial: "Three years ago, Noulan Cauchon of Ottawa presented to the world in general and to town planners in par- ticular his scheme for the adoption of the hexagon as a substitute for the rectangle as a basis for laying out streets. Since then, the Lauchon idea has spread around the world, and with interesting results, "Two years ago, Laurence Veiller, secretary of the National Housing Commission of the United States writing in 'Housing Betterinent,' de- clared that the Cauchon idea was 'the greatest contribution in twenty years to the science of town planning; it will revolutionize future urban devel- opment.' Soon hexagonal planning was. the talk of the town planners of the country. It was similarly re- ceived in Germany, where one fam- ous architect and garden city design- er claimed it to be the solution of a vital problem, "In England, too, it was studied and acclaimed. And now it has been applied to town planning in the city of Manchester. In a report to the Wythenshawe Committee of the Manchester Corporation, Barry Park- er, F.RIB.A, vice-president of the British Town Planning Institute, and designer with Reymond Unwin of Letchworth, England's first garden city, recommends the adoption of the Cauchon planning system to areas to be developed by that city. "In recommending the hexagonal plan, Mr. Parker says that it is the most econoniical, the most efficient and the safest of any vet devisee for laying out streets, It means a saving of 10 per cent. in development charges and corresponding gains in every other direction, mainly because it increases without sacrificing a single amenity the number of houses for which given lengths of roads and services suffice. He has applied the Cauchon scheme to the planning of areas in Manchester which will large- ly be devoted to the reception of houses for the working class. How was the hexagon idea received in Canada? Outside of a few obscure enthusiasts, the reception given by municipal and government authorities was an enthusiastic silence."

It would take them they said, slightly west of Days ton, Ohio, The big Stinson monoplane, powered with a 220 horsepower air-cooled motor was fueled with 410 gallons of gasoline which the two fliers said brought the tota: weight of their craft well above 3,000 pounds. The fliers faced 20-mile head winds as they took off taxiing the length of the field, about three- quarters of a mile. The take off was described as heautiful. Only a few persons were on hand as the two fliers took their ship aloft. The tall, blonde Bieler, a former German army aviator, and the ky, dark, ¢ ooking Pacheeo, native of Mexico, were supremely confident as they started the long three nations' flight. For more than a week they had tested the plane at Northville mear Detroit, where it was built. The head wind that faced the fli» ers at the take off was expected to curtail their speed to about 80 miles per hour until the fuel load was lightened, The primary object of the flight, Bieler and Pacheco declared, was to stimulate interest in aviation in Mexico. An early take off defeated plans for a rousing send off which had been arranged by Windsor peo- ple.
