Russians Adrift on Floe Snow Isolates Fli ers On Ice Cake; Say They Are 'Safe and Secure'
Moscow, May 25 — (UP) - Thirteen Russian explorers, isolated on an ice floe near the north pole by a snow storm, radiocast today that they were drifting away from the pole at the rate of one-half mile an hour.
Fierce winds whipped up the snow on the ice floe, further lowering the altitude.
The radiocast said that the sun which shines for six months at a time at the pole, was blotted out entirely by the snow.
It was impossible for three supply planes, poised 560 miles south at Rudolph island, to start for the polar camp.
The foe, which was reported to three inches thick, was described "secure and safe", although it h drifted several miles since the por landed on it at a point 12½ milesh after either flying over t last london.
Prof. Otto J. Schmidt, bewbisker leader of the expedition, revealed the first time the exact number in the party.
"An unusual picture is present by the 13 members together on the floor under an open sky listening to a group of people." His radio message said.
He said the party banded below the pole, but toward evening reach 57 degrees west longitude and 89 degrees latitude. Yesterday the floe had drifted to 88 west longitude and 89.7 latitude.
"In spite of the snow storm none feeling cold. We continued our wo here."
"Due to the absence of the sum, "due to make further calculations," he said. "The weather co-operation event other planes is reaching us."
The planes, manned by 29 m waited for a let-up in the weather take off with their eight tons of f and equipment.

Topeka, May 22 — (UP) — Delivery of 20,000,000 two-mill-size sales tax tokens will be started to Kansas retail merchants this week. W. G. Fink chairman of the state tax commission, said today.
Kansas Merchants Get Tax Tokens
The tokens were manufactured by the Osborn manufacturing company of Cindinnati, Ohio, although a section of the sales tax law provides they shall be made at the state reformatory in Hutchinson.
Clarence V. Beck, attorney general, said he understood that several Kansas merchants were preparing to buy the land on the bank of its constitutionality.
Both Fink and Gov. Walter A. Huxman explained it was necessary to allow an outfit firm to manufacture the respirator. But we could be put into operation June 1.
The main question centers around whether or not the law violates the section of the state constitution which states that "the legislature shall provide a uniform and equal rate of assessment and taxation."
The "uniformity" of the law may be attacked in one suit while another may test the section of the sales tax which states it is a "tax upon the privilege of selling tangible personal property at retail". Several attorney suits have been filed against upon the "privilege" of selling tangible personal property at retail.
The first merchant to register under the new law was the Allen W Hinkel Dry Goods company of Wichita.
