AIRSHIP DECLARES COSTLY
FOR USEFUL EXPLORATION
STOCKHOLM, Mar. 9.—Airship ex
ploration of the polar region is fin
ancially wasteful, and better scienti
fic results can be obtained at a small
fraction of the cost through the use
of an old-fashioned, moderate-sized
windjammer, according to Captain
Hugo N. Pallin, a Swedish explorer,
who has placed before the Anthropo
logical and Geographic Society of
Sweden a detailed plan to investi
gate one of the still unknown “white
spots” about the North Pole. An in
herent disadvantage of the aiiship
for polar work, Captain Pallin says,
is the lack of transportation facili
ties after making a landing.
The Arctic region now b€>st worth
studying Captain Pallin considers tc
be the one north of Siberia, particu
larly theneighborhood of Nicholas II
land. About this territory little is
ikr.cwn. It may be as large as Nova
Zembla, and may be connected thru
a series of islands with Fianz Jasef
Land. What Captain Pallin proposes
to do is to equip a hunting vessel of
about 80 tons, having auxiliary mo
tors and then stay in the Arctic at
least two and perhaps three years.
Toe crew he would limit to seven
men, of which three wou. 1 be sci-1
entists. The total cost would rot
b3 o' er $e0,000.
SUBORDINATE RACES MAY GET
BETTER TREATMENT IN FUTURE
GENEVA, Mar. 9.—The protection
of minority peoples, in other words,
people who, being resident within
the confines of foreign state, are
subject to the dominion of that state.
recently took on a new and hopeful
aspect at Geneva. Following the ex- w
ample of Greece, the government of
Turkey notified the League that it
would permit the neutral members
of the mixed commission, which han
dles the exchange of populations be
tween Greece and Turkey, to serve
as special agents of the council or
the League, to protect the interests
of the Albanian minorities resident
in Greece. #
Importance is given to this new de
velopment because it will undoubted
ly create a precedent to be followed
elsewhere and sets up a system
whereby the League Council may be
regularly and directly informed as to
the conditions under which minority
peoples are living.
