Captain Mandly has solved the 
problem that has come about by rea¬ 
son of the new immigration law, 
which made it practically impossible 
to take the ship from here to either 
the West Indies or the Cape Verde 
Islands and there recruit an alien 
crew. To bring this alien crew back 
to this port Captain Mandly was 
faced with the possibility of having 
to put up a bond of $3 00 for each 
alien brought in as a guarantee of 
that Alien’s return to his native land. 
Since whaling is not sufficiently 
-financially profitable to follow this 
course, he has decided to ship an 
all-American crew. 
The John R. Manta is now receiv¬ 
ing her stores on the south side of 
Merrill’s wharf, and Captain Mandly 
is hoping to have everything ship 
shape to get away early in April. He 
has the alternative of sailing directly 
to the whaling grounds, either the 
grounds off Charleston or those off 
Hatteras, or going first to some Pf^t 
in the West Indies for a supply ^f

Mr. Tripp has probably the most in port by August, but if he fills up

„ , . will not remain wiith the ship during 
reels of motion pictures and the entire voyage. His plan is to 
dreds of still life pictures, all col- leave the ship on the whaling 
lected by him in the course of the grounds. The cruising ground for 
years that he has given his lecture whales is from 120 to 140 miles off 
on whaling. Mr Tripp is making the southern coast, and after Mr. 
this present voyage, the first time Tripp has seen enough of whaling 
that he has actually been to sea on and has used up his camera supplies
