ASKS ASSISTANCE FROM PUBLIC
Believes Money Could Be Raised by

Subscription.

New York-Lack OF money-about
S6O,OOO--to finance the expedition
may mean the abandonment of the
dash 10 the north pole which Com.
mauder Robert +. Peary has planned
for this summer. The explorer, who
has earned the distinction of having
reached the farthest NORTH" and who
may truly be said to live for the pur-
pose of revealing to the world the
mysteries OF the pole itself, is deeply
downcast at the possibility that he
may not be able to try again.
This Is a work which | must do,
a work. great work-for which /
vas intended" said Commander Peary
10 representative o. the press. He
was not boastful, but modest in man
ncr, and with the simplicity Of speech
of a man convinced that he was born
for this great purpose, and that he
must accomplish 1t. And with con
lidence that his work must be helped
from somewhere, he added:
The money will come; somehow
feel certain Of that But If ] was only
assured now, what relief 1t would be.
and how | could concentrate all my
energies on the details of the eXpedi-
ton.
Remember, We were but IA nauti-
cal miles from the goal on our last
trip 1t would be pity, indeed, If we
could not try again"

pared for the next attack on the north

of the $4,000 already subscribed will

eral expenses. Tho Peary Arctic club,
of which Morris K Jesup is president,
is caring largely for the reiitting Of the

for contributions from the people Of
