IMISSING
SOVIET POLAR AIRMEN
Washington, To-day.
No real anxiety is yet felt for the Soviet trans-Polar fliers, who are thought to have been forced down in some region between the North Pole and Alaska.
Latest reports from Cape Barrow, in North Alaska, near the airmen's scheduled route, state that a dense fog prevails.
The airmen are heavily clothed and are provided with rations suffi- cient for several weeks.
