In an editorial, printed the day after the convention and after tiov ernor; Smith's pronouncement bail been made public, the t'hristlan Science Monitor said of him: "He Is entitled to the vote of every citizen who would reestablish the open sale of liquor in the laud and caf back the saloon with all its infamies." The charge is made that the Monitor ignored the governor s de nunciation of the saloon, and his assurance that it "was and ought always to be a defunct institution in ibis country."

(V) Swedish officials today were con sidering what steps could be taken toward a formal inquiry into lien em! I'mbertu Noblle's fatal expedi tion to the north pole. The news papers were suggesting a jurisdic ial investigation. The newspaper Dagblad printed a report saying thai icnerul No bile is "in fact, the Italian govern ment's prisoner, as he is forbidden to leave the base ship Citia di Mllano before be has given the world a clear account of the Italia catastrophe ami later events." Swedish fliers in Spitzbergen have been ordered to clear up the mystery of Dr. Finn Malmgren's fate. Ills Italian companions bur led him alive in the ice. but the' admiralty announced it had re ceived no confirmation of the Swe- i dish scientist's death. The search was ordered on the slim chance that he might be alive. An expert on international law said that it offered no hindrance to a formal Inquiry into tJie Xobile expedition, but that differences of a political nature might be encoun tered. He suggested that Sweden might propose a Norwegian trial of some sort, since the Spitsbergen archipelago is under the jurisdic jtion of Norway. j It w:ih thought by others, lmw ' ever, that such an Investigation j would be hard to arrange, as the jurisdiction of any country could j be only vaguely defined.
