Transatlantic flight is question
Of the near future, and its success or
failure depends to certain extent
on air conditions which must be OBJ

Greenland is the locality where the
conditions can be best observed.
Another air condition within the
arctic circle has an effect even
broader than the relations to COM
merce, namely, air pressure. Air
pressure is measured by the barome-
ter: and a high barometer in arctic
regions means not only very cold air
but high bank OF it, which in time
must flow southwark. During the
severe winter OF 1917-1S such a bank
Of air was observed at the Greenland
weather stations. We got the flow in
good time as far south as the Gulf
Of Mexico. Did we not learn about
the existence Of the bank? Yes; in
the following spring.

greater Importance than in the
past. Extensive beds OF coal have

Moreover, some Of the suspected oil

A Portal of Peace.

Up in the far Northwest an inter

Tuesday OF this week. 1t is the
dedication or an international arch
commemorative of the more than q
century of peace between the United
States and Great Britain, dating
from the proclamation OF the Treaty
OF Ghent in 1915. For 106 years we
have lived in amity with our great
neighbor on the north along 5000
miles OF friendly contact on an un-
armed, unfortified political and arti.
dcial boundary.
GThe monument that is to be dedi-
ated Tuesday under the auspices of

national Peace Association of Brit.
iuh Columbia rests partly on Ameri-
can soil and partly on Canadian soil.
Il covers and crosses the boundary
line. The American side OF the
peace arch is in Blaine, Washington; (;
the Canadian side is In Surrey, Brit

on the American side is the legend.

have been done. But governments
are sluggish in action. To conform

guardian was pa. : his expenses and

spending money was Increased after he
had acquired family to $40 a day, and
later to higher figures, until he is now
allowed $1,000 a month. Out Of this
sum he meets all private expenses and
keeps his family. which includes. be-

daughter of Mrs. Barnett by a previous
marriage.
Recently Mrs. Barnett determined her
husband needed vacation. At his little
country home near Henryetta, Okla, he
spends most OF his time riding back and
forth to town in his $4,000 car, but Mrs.
Barnett declared he was worn out and
besides should see some Of the world.

got the car and the permission and
$4,000 in cash and the party left imnc-
diately for Detroit. If permission II
granted they may cross over for travel
in Canada.

Sinking Of Greenland's Coast Not

To THE NEW York HERALD: An ex-
tract from a London paper which you

of Greenland has been subsiding for tho
last four centuries, SO that some Of the

been gradually submerged"
In 1851 the Geological Society of Lon
don published DR.. Abraham Gesner's
paper entitled Elevations and Depres-
sions OF the Earth In North America"
In which 1t was contended, upon evi-
dcnce drawn from the vertical position
OF the walls OF the fort at Louisburg,

croached upon the land In otsy%~ words,
that Nova Scotia had undergone and
was still undergoing submersion-
As such contention threatened to dis

College Students at Sea.

To THE NEW YoRK HERALD: Permit
me to correct the statement of Barrie

80 under the title "College Students a.

MT. Rich says that while working
their way across on the Shipping Board
freighter McKeesport he and three
friends were the only seamen on the
ship who could speak English, and a.
the officers were unable to speak the
foreign languages Of the crew all orderr
were concentrated upon them, ana thss
they scrubbed ana painted from dawn
until sunset and about painted the whole
ship before they landed.
Had Mr.. Rich rubbed shoulders with
the crew more he would have found
that even though not wholly American
1t consisted OF men who had spent many
years ct sea and had sailed in all parts
Of the world under many fags. Our
regular crew at the time consisted Of
twelve experienced seamen. four Of
whom were Americans and one q. Junior
at the Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology. All could speak English. OF
course they did not stop work to argue
over the ups and downs Of the Giants
or to eat chocolate covered caramels.
but when the order to turn to was given
they knew their duties.
In addition to the regular crew there
We're six students working their way
across. They signed an agreement be-
fore the voyage to work their passage
across. and designations are not accepted
at sea after tho voyage has begun. The
statement that they were forced to work

painted the whole ship leads me to ex-
