polar regions. Starting from differ ent points, the expeditions intend to
 drift across the north polar ocean and possibly may meet or pass.
 Both explorers will have ships
 built expressly for their work
 Amundsen's in Norway and Bart
 lett's on the Pacific coast. Both ex-
 petitions have the endorsement and
 encouragement of the National Geo.
 graphic Society," Both will use air
 planes, and have the active cooper
 ation of the Aero Club of America
 in forming their equipment of air planes and aviators.
 Bartlett's American expedition will enter the polar ocean by way of Ber- ing straits. Amundsen will enter by 1 the route north of Norway and the ] Karaza.
 { Arrangements will be made for CO., ordination of the scientific observa- = ] tions of the two expeditions. With the ! aid of their aviation equipment they may be able to complete the geo graphical reconnaissance of the en- l tire north polar ocean, and it is pos sible that in the event of the crush | ing of either one of the ships by ice, 1 the airplanes may be instrumental in l enabling one crew to reach the other l ship by establishing direct communi- 'tion and carrying supplies.
 Admiral Peary said today he con- ! sidered the expeditions were under 1 the command of two of the most fla 1 nous and experienced of living polar ] navigators and presented possibi1-
 ities of great scientific importance.

TWO EXPEDITIONS
 FOR POLAR VOYAGE
Bartlett and AmundSOn Will Use
 AirplaneS in Arctic Region

Washington, Dec. 23.-Arrange- ments for the American polar ex- petition to be headed by Captain Robert A. Bartlett, Peary's navigator on his dash to the North Pole, have progressed to the point where the expedition, which is to be similar to another to be led by Captain Roald Amundsen, discoverer of the South Pole, may get away next summer
 Rear Admiral Peary, who has re- turned from New York where he con- ferred with Amundsen and Bartlett, understands that sufficient money has been subscribed privately to car ry through the expedition, which probably will cost about $200,00O. Amundsen's expedition is being or ganized in Norway and will cost about as much. Both will be pre- pared to stay on the ice from three to five years to make a scientific study of physical conditions in the central
