A radio mamft nu nmItmI bars from Major Martin this morning. The aviator* owed their nin'nm, the ra4infrra laid to "concentrated food and nerve." Exhausted the flight commander and his mechanic finally lunched a trapper's cabin at the northernmost point of Port Molier bar, on the morning of May 7. they found food and regained suffi cient strength to walk the beach tnrse days before they were rescued. The plane struck a mountain near Port Moiler an hour and a half after leaving Chignik, according to Major Martin's meaaage. Although the ship waa completely wrecked, neither of the aviators was hurt, he said. Port Moiler is 1M miles west of Chig nik. The message from Major Martin which reached here at 1 :lt u'clock this morning came from Port Molier via St. Paul island. Nothing in the message indicates, aa It waa understood here, how many miles Major Martin was from Port Molier boy when his machine, the flsr plane Seattle, was wrscked against a mountain. Thus It waa not known here today bow many m'len '%* and Sergeant Harvey forced their way through the wilderness before they reached the trapper's cab n and found something more to eat than the concentrated rations they carried. It la known, however, that they were at least a week on their Joumer.

Biaael. who mad* all arranamanta for the flight from Seattle to Attn island at the waatera end of the Aleutian chain, had considered it certain that the commanding officer would not fly that day. Although the day had Pawned fair and clear at Dutch Har bor. northwest gales soon started, and violent winds carrying much snow ■rose almost the moment the Seattle had taken the air. Major Martin had flown to. Chig nite April 25 from Kanatak. This Journey of 1150 miles was mad? in such a storm that he alighted midwny in Kunlik bay and for SO minites, with snow heating into his face, stud ied maps and the surrounding lard acape in an effort to get his bearings. The next day he went down with a leaking crank case and was found in Portage Bay near Chignik by the United States destroyer Hull. At Kanatak he installed a new engine in hia plane aa it rocked and plunged in in the water. The three remaining planes of the expedition, under command of Lieut Lowell H. Smith, reached Attn island Friday, and according to latest ad sices were awaiting a favorable mo ment to make the Jump of S78 milea serosa the Bering aea to Paramaahire Wand in the Kurflea. at the north end ef the Japanese empire.

The opinion of an officer prominent in mapping out the route waa that Martin carried raaarre food which weighed about fire pounds. That milk tableta were included waa con aidered likely and the regular army ration, given to man who are to be away from their baae for some days consisting of condensed beef, coffee, ■agar and Won, waa probably in cluded it was said. Establishment of Major Martin'a safety was received with great en thusiasm in army circles, where what had developed Into a 24 hours a day planning division had been engaged with the work of directing the search for him. All through the 11 days the air plane Seattle had been missing, the belief bad been held staunchly that Major Martin would be able to save himself and hia aide.

He is 42 yeara old. an experienced aviator, a former artillery man, and has many times been through the rig ors incident to a career in the army.

He received two promotions in grade during his stay in the artillery branch, in 1920 transferred to the air service with the rank of major, lost his spurs and won his wings.
