It is possible her pilots will make an additional search ! today, but with the Lexington ‘ nearing the scene with its numeri ous planes this was considered , doubtful. i The destroyers, Lampson. Drayi ton and Cushing are expected to take up positions in the search i after they are refueled. The minesweeper Swan also will be kept iu the area as it has a derrick that i can be utilized for hoisting dis- I abled planes from the sea. j It was not known if the search ' will be extended to the Gilbert ’ Islands, due west of Howland .

Most ob ( servers are certain Miss Earhart was close to Howland Island when she made her forced descent, but some feel the currents may have carried her plane toward the Gili berts. o Field Agent To Be Here Tuesday Harry R.

. short talk in which he said: “Our - tribes have memories of a conveni tion here only 12 moons ago. This i la a city of flue homes, tine , churches and fine schools. ■; “As I travel I see the need of I ( fraternal organizations and churchI es. If I could show you where > ■ young people are and where they -1 should be,, I could show you the I j need of churches and fraternal organizations.” II Franklin Speaks J | Rev. Franklin then delivered the principal address upon the subject, I i "The Good Spirit." He said: "The ■ Improved Order of Red Men is I based upon the Indians who roami ed this great and free country. , You have a great background. The ’ Indian was your friend unto death ’ and his ideal was bravery. "There is no greater need for (fraternal organizations than now. ; To be brothers today with all the | I 'isms' is a reason for your organization with its ideals.
