WASHINGTON. Jan. lo.-"Frum my experiences in the Arctic regions draw the conclusion that it is useless to attempt to Christianizc and civilizc Peary tin statement issued for publi- cationg
 Bishop Peter Trimblc Rowe. "f Sit ka challenged Pearys statement today and maintained that the explorers re- mark was without just foundation.
 Bishop Rowe before removing to Sit ka was prominent in Canada in mis- sionary work. He is well acquainted with Northern conditions and natives and believes that the Eskimos have been benefited by the assistance and teachings of the white man
 He further contends that the natives have improved wonderfully ever since the white man has taught him things. Christian, and that they. the natives are fastly becoming more modern in their ideas concerning religion, educa tion and mode of living
 on the other hand Commander Peary who has had to do with Eskimos and Northern people for a number of years contends that the retrogression of the natives has been marked. since the white man has taken a hand in their affairs. The explorer maintains that the modern" native has learned to swear. cheat and steal from the white man. and that the work of the mis sionary was all for naught.
 Bishop Rowe refuses to accept Peary's idea on the subject and as serts that the natives of the Arctic and Northern lands are now a better race of people than they were fifteen years ago.
