When the north polar records Of DR..
Cook are first examined. Rear Adj
miral W. s. Schley, of the United
States navy, who is recognized au-
shor1ty on arctic exploration, made an
interesting statement regarding the ac-
ton OF members of the National Geo
graphical Society in requesting the
University of Copenhagen to allow
them representation at the examina-
ton of DR.. Cooks polar data. when
an opinion is expressed by one who is
known to be biased it loses all its
weight In matter of this kind" Rear
Admiral Schley said. THE only state
ments that carry weight are made by
persons Of an open mind who have not
prejudiced the issue in advance of get
ting all the facts in the case. I do not
wish to criticize anything that Nom
bers Of the National Geographical So
cfety have done, but I will say this:
The Danish experts who will examine
DR.. Cooks records are known to be by
far the most competent of any In the
world to Judge, and what they do not
know about polar exploration and ex-
animation of polar records no one can
presume to tell them"
