Geologist Claims That Gradual Change Will be of. Economic Importance to Ex- treme Regions (Canadian Press) WASHINGTON. D. C.. Oct. 11. —l)r. Charles D. Walcott, of the Smithsonian Institution, one of the IJCHE known American geolog- ists, has returned from a Summer in the Canadian Rockies with the flrin conviction that the far north is growing warmer by a gradual but slow process. The process, Dr. Walcolt titlniits, is very slow, and to any but the trained geological explorer may appear imperceptible. it is never- theless, such a gradual change as eventually may prove of grout ec- onomic importance -to Alaska and the Klondike. The Smithsonian expert, who was assisted in his explorations by Mrs. Walcott, finds that the glaci- ers are retreating northward. For the last seven years Mrs. Walcott has taken exact measurements of the great Selkirk Glacier on the Canadian Pacific Railroad. In that period it has gone back 1.070 feet and it is new n mere skeleton of what. it. was when first discovered in 1898. As the years grow warmer the snowfall decreases, Dr. Walcott re- ports. This resulls in less press- ure on the ice. The retreat of the glaciers becomes more rapid from year to year but it is still, u matter of a few feet each year. The warming process it is estim- ated, has been going on the last twenty years. {..>__..___ lillilllli'iiilil7 i5 lHilElllNEll Rev. Prin. (landier Says Science Has Put Power of Gods Into Hands of.
