BARTLETT WOULD DRIFT
/. THROUGH ARCTIC Waste

New York, Sept 1<.-Captain Rob
ert A. Bartlett, companion of Peary
on the trip when the latter. with a
negro reached the North Polo, an
nounced today he has pledges of 1885,
600 for a new project in the Arctic
regions.
He proposes to let a ship be frozen
up in the Arctic region and then drift
toward the Pole across a part of the
earth never before explored. For this
he needs about an equal amount be-
side that already promised.
Il desire to superintend the con-
struction OF a wooden vessel Of about
$50 tons, especially for Arctic work."
he said today I'VE would start in
May. 1918, northward through Behr-
ing Strait; so eastward off the north
ern coast of Alaska TO about 80 west
longitude, and latitude "A to rs. or
even farther north let the vessel
freeze UP and go with the ice-drift
through the great unexplored Arctic
regions. There are more than a MIL
lion square miles of unexplored ter
ritorv in the Arctic Ocean.
II would take only eight men with
me on the trip, preferably young col
lege men. While we drifted we would
take soundings and use a deep-sea
from The floor of the ocean.
Instead of regular steam engines
and boilers, requiring the consump-
ton of coal, ! will install Bollinger
crude oil engine, thus doing away with
the necessity OF engineers and fire.
men.
From my knowledge OF the Arctic
, regions and the currents of general
drift OF the ice / should saw that we
would drife for about five years be-
fore reaching civilization again; but
we might do II in three years. /
would provision the ship for five or
six years and that would be easy with
only nine men to provide for. The
general drift would be to the West,
and I should say that we would
eventually come out either between
Greenland and Spitzbergen. or between
Spitzbergen and Franz Josef Land.
rs Is possible that we would dis
cover land during our travels. We
would drift for about five years be-
what sledges we required for explora-
ton The dogs would be fed on bear
meat and fish. of both of which we
would have no difficulty in getting
all we required. Our own principal
meat diet would be bear and seal OF
course. we would have canned meats
with our provisions, but l have never
cared much for them in Arctic work
| Sea meat is delicious and the polar
bear meat is good. too-very like
| pork"
| Captain Bartlett ran away to sea
when n boy, and has lived most Of his
! life since on sealers. whalers and in
Arctic exploration. He is forty years
| old.
