Page 24 Register-Guard, Eugene, Ore., Wed., May 21, 1952 Landlords Oppose Federal Rent Curbs WASHINGTON (U.R Land lords urged Congress' Tuesday to let federal rent controls die June 30 or at least confine them to "critical defense housing areas." The latter proposal would strip rent ceilings from Minneapolis, Pittsburgh, and a number of other major communities where they have been in effect for about 10 years. Spokesmen for the landlords said in testimony before the House control is "morally wrong, eco nomicaJly unjustified" and creates "artificial housing shortages." Unemployment Hits New Postwar Low WASHINGTON UP) Non farm employment went up 280,000 between March and April, largely as a result o seasonal construc tion work, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports. Total unemployment was 1,600, 000 in early April, a postwar low for that time of year. The number of employes in in dustries not connected with farm ing was 46,200,000 higher than a year earlier. Over the year ending last month, the number of produc tion workers in manufacturing plants declined by 410,000 to 12,-; 700,000. 'Priceless Documents' Found at Pole KB" Air Control!

New ANCHORAGE, Alaska U.R Four sealed metal boxes left in the arctic wastes by members of Admiral Robert E. Peary's polar expedition 43 years ago may con tain "priceless historical docu ments" which should be removed to a museum, Lt. Col. William P. Benedict said Monday. Benedict, of Paradise, Calif., and Lt. Col. Joseph O. Fletcher, of Shawnee, Okla., spotted Peary's cache while making a low-level flight over the ice shelf border- ling Ellesmere Island north of j Greenland on May 4, the day be fore they made their historic land ing at the North Pole. j BENEDICT immediately set the C-47 plane down at Cape Colum , bia and the crew walked to the I cache a mile away. It was marked ;by broken sled runners set upright 'in a tripod arrangement. They were believed to be the ! first persons to visit the spot in 43 years. I In his first interview since re turning from the arctic Sunday, Benedict said he gave orders to his crewmen not to disturb the four metal boxes packed inside wooden crates. He said he was convinced the cache should be left intact until it is removed to a museum and that it should be replaced by permanent monument to the arc tic explorer. Benedict urged that either Can ada or the United States send a plane to pick up the boxes, which are on Canadian territory. "This should be done as soon as Electric Motor Shifts in Hurry CLEVELAND (fV) A 500-horse-power electric motor which can shift forward to reverse in eight tenths of a second may speed the coming of push button fac tories. The motor was hailed as "the beginning of the power for the automatic factory" Monday by reliance Electric & Manufacturing Co. which developed it. An electronic control can stop the big motor in three revolutions and send it spinning in the op posite direction. It is this feature that puts the motor high in plans for factories which would use a minimum of machinery and. a minimum of workers. Reliance already has sold three of the motors, two for punch presses and one for a highspeed rod mill cutoff. .Each cost about 50 thousand dollars. mcA reiepiioio A SIGN OF THE TIME Crew members of a U. S. Air Force C-47 that made history's first successful landing at the geographic North Pole, examine a signpost built by Adm. Peary's party in 1909. A few feet away was a cache of supplies left by the early explorers. Lt. Col, Joseph O. Fletcher is at left and Pilot Lt. Col. William P. Ben edict is at right. possible," he said. "The contain-! ers are badly weathered now and definitely won't last another 50, years." He said he had no idea what! the boxes contained, but pointed out that Peary states in his book "The North Pole" that documents' concerning, his 1909 expedition were left in the polar regions. . "If those documents are in the boxes, they should be removed as soon as possible because of their historical significance," Benedict said. Members of his crew were! mystified by the appea'rance of a weatherbeaten signpost located a few feet from the metal boxes. The top of the sign, bearing the legend "C. Columbia, June R. in""" vinr) fallen to one side and it appeared that someone years later had wrapped a piece of wire around it to keep it from falling down altogether. However, there were no signs of anyone having been there or of anything missing from the cache. Benedict said the group decided the appearance of the sign was deceiving. HE POINTED out that the date on the- sign did not coincide with that given in Peary's book June 6, 1906, indicating that Peary was confused by the continuous day light in these latitudes during the spring and summer. Benedict said his navigator was astounded to learn that Peary had accurately computed the distance from the cache to the pole 413 miles. ..c;ore leaving Cape Columbia, the Air Force group left a ski at the cache on which . Colonel Fletcher carved the inscription: Visited by the crew of Air force plane 665 on May 4 one day after landing on North Pole." Peary used the Cape Columbia' camps as a supply point, anai jumping off place on his long! polar trip when he Became me first person to reach the North Pole after seven futile attempts. DR.
