DISCUSSION OF
POLAR CLAIMS
CREATES FUSS
Friends Of Admiral Peary De.
nOu,cc Capt. Amundsen
and Gen. Greedy
ny CHARLES p. STEWART

Washington, Feb. l6.--Exprcssion.
by two such eminent authorities as
Captain Amundsen and General A.
w. Greedy. Of the opinion that doc"
Cooks north polar claims are as good
as Admiral Peary's were, has created
a great commotion among the ad-
miral's friends in Washington, where
he spent his later years.
They denounce Amundsen and
Greedy vcheincntly but that doesn't
unsay what they've said. aud the
Pearyitcs are afraid. coming from
men Of their reputation, that it will
be widely believed.
The upshot seems likely to be an
effort, by the admiral's supporters,
to have every bit Of the evidence
ihreshed out afres,,. under the au-
spices of some such body as the Ma
tional Geographic Society, to settle
the last doubt concerning the accur-
acy Of their hero's story.
Evidence Is Scarce
Only the trouble is, as General
Greedy points out, That there isn't
much evidence.
Pea,y had with him, on the last
leg Of his journey, nobody. to quote
the general, but ian ignorant negro
and a few Eskimcs," whose tests-
mony is no better than that of the
"doc's"' gumdrop- eaters.
That's where the admiral made his
grand mistake. He ought to have
had Captain Bartlett along.
It's true that Bartlett believes his
chief reached the pole.
However, he doesn't pretend to
tell, of his own personal knowledge,
| what happened after Pcary ordered
! him to stay behind. as he didn't want
a white man to share with him the
honor of finishing the ultimate lap
| Bartlett admits this nearly broke
his heart, but he certainly is having
his revenge now, though he's toe
loyal to consider it SO.
Peary Not Popular
Much as he's been derided by the
laity Cook always has been popular
among explorers. Pcary emphaticai
} ly was not.
The "doc," it's to be remembered
wasn't on his first expedition, by an!
means. when he professed to have
found the pole. He'd accompanies
several previously. All accounts
agree that he was an ideal compan
ion--helpful, kindly, courageous ant
competent. Peary was accused O.
selfishncss--as witness his treat
ment Of Bartlett.
So some of the brotherhood. lik'
Amundsen and Greedy. may be
trifle prejudiced. Possibly, if the
can't believe the "doc" accomplishe'
all he says, they don't want to be
lieve the admiral did.
At any rate, the captain and Ia
general, between them. have show
Cook to the public in new light.
The former has focused attention
on fact hitherto little, stressed
