ARCTIC WASTE BARES SECRETS TO SKYVIKINGS Aircraft Bring New Era of Discovery, Says Nobile. Bn Science Service NEW YORK, May 18.—Gone are the days when the arctic’s secrets must be wrested by strong men skilled in ice travel. Today Edison himself might travel in an airship to the arctic and make his own observations. Such is the opinion of General Umberto Nobile, commander of the dirigible Italia, now engaged in scientific exploration of the arctic regions. In a recent communication to the American Georgraphical Society here, General Nobile summarized as follows the revolution in exploration brought about by aviation! “Aviation, which is bringing about profound innovations in every human activity, has opened anew era in the history of polar exploration. “Nobody can doubt the superiority of aircraft —airplanes or dirigibles—known regions of the earth. We can truly say that aviation has produced a revolution in this field. In a few hours it is possible now to make a journey that in the past required months and years of travel with ships and sledges. From Spitzbergen we reached the North Pole in the Norge in sixteen hours, while Nansen in one year and months reached only latitude 86 degrees 14 minutes; and in only thirty hours we traversed the unexplored area between the pole and Alaska for a distance of 2,000 kilometers. “One radical change that has taken place in the matter of polar exploration is this: experts who

know how to travel on the ice arc no longer needed, and men who know how to navigate the air take their place. “In addition, it is no longer necessary that the scientists of an expedition be men strong enough to support long journeys on the ice and trained in making them. Edison could be a member of an expedition of this kind and read his own instruments himself. “Certainly there is no field of human activity so well suited as polar exploration to impart a realization of the great constribution that aerial transportation is bound to make to human knowledge; in one year it is possible to reveal what has been sought for centuries.”
