ARMY MAY HUNT FOR LOST AIRMAN Secretary Wilbur Asks Arctic Expedition for Lieutenant Eielson. WASHINGTON. Dec. 7. (/P)--Secretary Wilbur today suggested to the war department that active steps be taken for an army expedition to rescue Lieutenant Ben Eielson and his mechanic, Earl Borland, lost somewhere in northern Alaska or on the Siberian coast. The action of Secretary Wilbur followed the receipt of a telegram from six leading citizens of Nome Alaska, informing him that the private expedition headed by Frank Dorbandt had been unable to function and that Dorbandt had cracked up his plane at Teller, Alaska. Charles D. Jones, United States marshal at None, informed the interior department that the planes available in Alaska for the Eielson search were unsuited for such work. He urged that the government give assistance to the search with planes suitable for long cruising. Eielson has been missing since early in November when he made his second trip from Teller, Alaska, to North Cape, Siberia, where he had been engaged in removing passengers and a million-dollar fur cargo from the ice-bound trading ship, Nanuk.
