OSLO, Dec. 25. (UP)—Inexperience md the element of chance in arctic ■xploration have been ruled out by he Norwegian government. Advenurous tales will give way to the more oractical reports of scientists. The government has announced measures for the regulation of ex* doring expeditions that employ Nor* vegian vessels or engage Norwegian ubjects to Norwegian ports. This will nclude practically all expeditions to Spitsbergen, since Norwegian subjects »re nearly always included in such indertakings, even if Norwegian ships

ire not chartered.

Norway has made steady progress the drafting of regulations for the development and exploration of the •ountless island constituting Spitsburgen, her polar possession. Norway ook her place among the polar powts when -he was granted control of these islands hy the Supreme Coun■il in 1!*20, becoming operative in

1!>25.

Following the usual custom in the idvent of sovereignty to uninhabited sparsely settled arctic lands, Norway’s first act was the promulgation if game laws to restric the annual ravages of the winter fur trappers. Spitsbergen, or the archipelago of Svalbord, embraces all the island- between latitude 74 and HI, North, from

longitude 10 to 35, East.

Under the provisions of the new regulations for exploration, the plans md equipment of all expeditions from Norway will he inspected hy a comnittee from the Norges Svalbard og (shavs-undersokelser, a government lepartment created for the purpose. The inspection will apply particularly expeditions which may winter in he polar regi ns. A government ship urveyor and a member with personal •xperience in arctic wintering are

included in the committee.

It is believed that the system of nspecting expeditions before they ener the arctic wastes will save the mmense cost of re-cue and relief vhich has been necessary to aid inxperienced explorers. This expense ias been borne either by the state nr ipitzbergen coal mining eontpanies. The money spent on relief expedii lions in recent years would have fininced several properly conducted sci■ntific partie- Norwegian officials nake it clear that there is no desire o discourage legitimate enterprise nr nterfere with expeditions in the hands

if experienced men.

Luther help is offered explorers •vho will consult the Spitzbergen Delaitment before completing their dans, m that they may find out what ias already been done, or what conemporary expeditions are doing This hould prevent overlapping in scien>fic investigations. Literature and naps will he supplied free, the only request being that the explorers in urn give the government a report of heir work and copies of any subse-

pient publications.
