Search For Amelia

Earhart Goes On

From Our Own Correspondent

Honolulu, Nov. 3.

H. DIMITY, a friend of Mr. Putnam, husband of the American pilot, Amelia Earhart, who disappeared near Howland Island on July 2, is equipping a three-master schooner at Seattle for the purpose of conducting a prolonged search among the equatorial islands for the aviatrix Amelia and her companion, Fred Noonan.

The schooner is Diesel-powered and has a range of 10,000 miles. It will carry a small seaplane, power launches, small boats, radio and diving equipment. The expedition will start within a few weeks.

There is a $2,000 reward offered by Mr. Putnam for the discovery of any material thing which will give a definite clue to the fate of the missing American aviators.
