Copenhagen, July 19, (A. P.)
The Social Democraten publis'a
es a report fvum Oslo, the No.
wegion cap.rul, yesterday stating
that CaptaW lloald Amundsen,
who roturued to Spitsbergen yos-
torday after oia sensational Arctic
flight is dissatisfied with the re
sults attained and is "quite de
termined to ictiume the attempt"
to reach the pole. The explorer la
quoted as declaring that the ex
perience gained in his present at
tempt would enable him to attain
his coal.
The other members of the ex
pedition, the account continues,
appear equally animated by a de
sire to beat I ho aerial polar expe
ditions planned by other countries.
Results Held Good.
They cxprftd the view that Im
portant scientific results had been
achieved thus far. Captain
Amundsen h!tme i was reticent.
Amundsen 's comrades were
unanimous in their appreciation
of his leadership. The American
member of the party, Lincoln Ells
worth, was saddened by the news
awaiting him of me death of his
father during his stay in thi
north, but raid that he would
continue his financial backing of
Captain A mum-ben.

upon which it bases its plea for

The state's last witness, the
man upon whom it depended for
establishing the necessary ''corpus

been committed, was Charles C.
Faiman, proprietor of a small
school known as the National Uni
