NOTED EXPLORER
PREDICTS EARLY SPRING

New York, Jan. 3O.-Bringing with
him the welcome prophecy of an open
Winter, Sir Ernest Shackleton, noted
British Antarctic explorer, arrived to-
day on board the Cunard liner Aqui-
tania on his way TO Montreal.
The explorer smiled as the huge
liner was kept away from her dock
for more than an hour by the ice jam.
"As far as l can see," said Shackle-
ton, who looks to be in perfect health
and who certainly is in the best of
spirits, you in America will have an
open Winter for the balance of the
season. base my prediction on OBJ
servations taken of the ice along the
Siberian shore and the ice in the At
lantic.
THE ocean ice is free and loose.
Another thing that makes me think
we shall have an open Winter is the
fact that the peaks in Spitzbergen are
not covered with snow"

Washington. Jan. 2s.-"I believe
that I have more enemies and have
been more generally denounced than
any member of the cabinet.
1T has not. however. robbed me of
my serenity Of mind, nor spoiled eth
er my disposition or my appetite. I
know who my enemies are. how 1
made them, and why; and the rea-
SON are satisfactory ones to me.
II am not embittered about 1t. 1

This remarkable statement was
made by Postmaster General Albert
Sidney Burleson. 1t is said to be
the first interview he has granted
during the eight years he has held
his present Office. 1t appears in a
copyrighted article in the Baltimore
Sun, a stout adherent Of the admin

At the P~ostofice Department it was
stated that the statements credited to
Burleson were quite correct.
Going into detail, Mr.. Burleson
stated that his principal enemies are
of four classes: Railroad presidents,
union labor, express companies and
certain newspapers and magazines.
