By Frederick Lewis Earp (Copyright. 1926, by the N. A. N. A.) FAIRBANKS, Alaska, June 6.—The monoplane Detroiter of the Detroit arctic expedition returned here last night from Point Barrow at 6 : 10 p. m., after being in the Arctic ocean, settlement since May 8. Aboard the ship were Captain George H. Wilkins, commander of the expedition; Major Thomas G. Lanphier, army air service navigator of the Fokker plane Lieutenant Charles M. Wisely, air service reserve, pilots, and Sandy Smith, chief of the expedition's overland party. Adverse weather conditions that had been almost continuous since the Detroiter headed north nearly a month ago, coupled with motor trouble, prevented the Detroiter from making the trip over the polar ice in search of land. This does not mean known, but it may mean a several weeks. More aviation fuel must be delivered at Point Barrow and this can only be taken in adequate quantity when ships reach there in July or August.
