Canada. Thia region holds the highest unarale<f peaks on the North American continent and the party may climb soma of these before It returns. Airplane Flights Before leaving the outposts of civilian'lon for the unknown mountain region, washbum and several other members of the party made several flights over the region by airplane. They found three unrecorded glaciers and discovered that Hubbard glacier was double its previously recorded length. "The number of unknown glaciers and peaks which we have seen and photographed on our first two flights is almost inconceivable.” Washburn wrote. ‘ These mountains represent the last stronghold of the Great Ice Age on the North American continent: and I believe that we are successfully obtaining a pliorters whose immense size and number have never been dreamed of by the early explorers of the Yukon.” FvperiilMtn Personnel Beside Washburn, the expedition consists of Robert H Bates Philadelphia; Adams Carter.

Q —When did Pentecost and Tabernacles occur In the year 26 A. D.? A—This question brings up the d,{Acuities connected with the conversion of early Christian dates into the Jewish chronology. These difficulties have not altogether been conquered. To find the Jewish year that corresponds to a Christian year, there must be added to the Christian year 3761. since creation, according to Jewish reckoning, occurred 3760 years and 3 months before Christ. The year 26 A. D, therefore, is 3787 of the Hebrew calendar. The sixth day of the Hebrew month Siwan is the first day of Pentecost; i. e., Feast of Weeks, and the 13th day of the Hebrew month Tishri is the first day of Tabernacles. Here the difficulties begin for various reasons; such as changes in the Roman calendar and the ancient methods of discovering the first appearance of the new moon. In Rabbi Solomon Sadowsky’s ‘Rabbi Joshua Ben Chanama” ist Louis, 1932. pp 23-27> the storv of the dispute between Rabbi Gamaliel and Rabbi Joshua regarding the determination of the date of the new moon is clearly narrated. For further information see Hastings Dictionary of the Bible. Volume 1. pp. 411. fT. Jewish Encyclopedia 111. pp. 389 fT.; Encyclopedia Bi ittanica IV, p. 1000. mm* Q What basis is there for Protestant suspicion of the Catholic Church in American politics? A—Discussing this subject in his recent book. "All in the Name of God,” Dr. Everett R. Clinchy declares; "It is said that there is danger that the Catholic Church will control the government. But this charge does not make sense. The government of the United States is 158 years old and the Catholics have made no effort to take possession of it. To be sure, in some cities where the population is largely Catholic, the number of local office holders who are Catholics is high, but that is to be expected. In this democracy the majority rules, and if the majority of voters are Catholics, the chances are that they wiil not refuse to vote for nonProtestant candidates. If threequarters of the people in Boston are Catholics, why should not the municipal office holders be drawn in largest measure from that group? In the Federal government throughout our history, the Catholics have been under represented. There have been 32 Presidents who were of the Protestant culture; there never has been a President who was a Catholic. and yet the Catholics forfn 20 per cent of the population of the United States. Moreover, a Catholic is rarely chosen as a member of the Presidents cabinet. * m a Q What are the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion?” A—The "Protocols" are discussions of an alleged plan as to how the Jew is to proceed toward subjecting all governments and placin': them under the control of a Jewish supergovernment. These documents have aptly been termed "the greatest lie in history.” The "Protocols" is a brazen forgery, made up of material taken from an earlier political pamphlet that had no application whatever to the Jew; and combined with the fantastic idea of “The Elders of Zion” that had first been employed by a fi-tion writer. Goedsche. who had been dismissed from the government service in Germany for forgery The "Protocols" were first exposed by the Constantinople correspondent of the London Times, in 1921.
