Questions Whether Peary Ever Reached North Pole
ly DAVE MclNTOBl Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP)-A new book on the Canadian Arctic . tlona
whether Admiral Ro ert E.
Peary of the U.S. Navy ever
reached the North Pole.
The book. Arctic Canada from
the Air, was written by Moira Dunbar of the Defence Research
Board's geophysics section and Wing Cmdr. Keith R. Greenaway
of the RCAF. one of the world's
foremost polar aerial navigators. it is published by the Queen's printer.
The book says at one point:
". . . it was from Cape Co- lumhia that in 1000 he (Peary) at last claimed to have reached the pole. Just before his return. how- ever. a claim was made by Dr. Frederick A. Cook (of Britain) that he had reached the pole a year earlier from Axel llelberg island.
"There were many inconsisten- cies about Cook's story and in the very heated controversy that fol- lowed his claim was finally dia- credltsd and Peary's allowed. Controversy still surrounds them. however. the question can at course never be settled beyond doubt and it is really of little im- portance. Bven ll Peary did I in fact reach the pole. he at least mt an end to the terrible waste of money and energy expended in trying to reach it. and for that alone he deserves thanks." WON'T MARI ISSUE
Canadian Arctic experts have bog questioned privlielv WM Peary ever reached the North Pole but have said it would be pointless to try to make an issue
it. The new book contains the first public refsrsnce in recent years to the lloasibllilr that Paar! fell
short of his aim. The Encyclopaedis Britannica
led all the way to the pole and that "the goal of all the ages of exploration had been reached." Supplies for Pesry's expedition. which comprised seven explorers.
moved to Cape Columbia at me northern tip of Ellesmere Island in the winter of lmd-09.
Capt. Bob Bartlett. a New-
north April 1.1909. and Peary was accompanied the last 140 miles to the pole. says the encyclopaadia. by Matthew Hanson. his Nova Scotia servant. and four Eskimos. Peary claimed to have reached the Pole April 0. im. Arctic ex- perts have since said they believe it would have been impossible for Peary to cover no miles in five days over the ice and at a time of year when there was only a few hours' daylight each day.

FOIM" P-5-l M0"; Russian Treasure Chest I
By ALTON L. ILAKESLEE Associated Press Beiea Reporter
TORONTO (CF) .. A Russian polar scientist Friday night re- ported a treasure chest of discov- eries in the Arctic regions from intensive It-year Soviet studies there.
One is strong evidence there are two magnetic North Poles. situated some distance from each other. said Dr. E. I. Toistikanv, who risked his life riding on dangerously mel tin g. storm- toaaed ice in the Arctic Ocean.
Pecuilarities of air movements and temperature have been chatted and could lead to better pi ” i of cold air masses rolling down front the North Pole area.
The Arctic Ocean bottom once was land. Dr. Toisiikov added Skeletons of microscopic sea life indicate the Arctic gets cold and warm periods in a definite pro- cession. each period lasting 8.000 to 12.000 years.
Subarmine mountains divide the Arctic Ocean into two parts. the Atlantic and Paciiic. and greatly influence sea currents. The ocean bottom is iurrowed by several deep trenches and boasts numerous high submerged moun- tains.
