SEE END Of ARCTIC
: AVIATION DISPUTE
Byrd and StefanSSon Claim
j. Wilkins Has Solved
Flying in North.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. May 2i.-Some of the
secrets of the frozen North discovered
by the wilkins expedition sponsored
hy the Detroit News have been re.
Vealed by the explorers Richard r..
Byrd and Nihialmur Stefansson.
They announced that landing by
aviators on Arctic Ocean ice has
proven feasible and that the Far
North is practicable for both com.
mercial and military aviation. The
probability Of unknown land existing
i'm the Arctic seas has been reduced
by Capt. wilkins SoundinGs.
In a Joint statement the two eX-
plorers said
I'VE want To call attention to one
- the most heroic and dramatic ad-
ver- ures of polar history in the Arctic
north or Alaska. where Capt. George
". wilkins Lieut.. Ben Eielson and
thor associates have already made
striking contributions to science and
--,e progress Of northern aviation.

'"The Wilkins expedition last year
crossed five times a range of Arctic
mountains so little known that it had
been given on maps as 5000 or 5000
feet high. while ii proved to be
around 10000 One fight was from
Fairbanks $50 niles north to Barrow
and thence $50 miles out over the
ocean and then back To Barrow, a
flight on which 10000 square miles of
previously unknown territory were
seen. Thus Wilkins proved that fly
ing is distinctly feasible in the most
northeriy possession of the United
States. setting at rest controversy
of importance both in civil and mill
tary aviation as tn whether Alaska
can bc used as flying base for com
mercial or military operations against
Asia and as TO whether Alaska could
be flown across by Asiatic airplanes
wishing TO reach Canada or the United
States by that route.

into the largest uneXplored area north
of the Equator. They had flown $50
miles and had almost completed the
outward flight when engine trouble
developed and they made a forced
landing.
Landing Plans Numerous.
This was a deciding moment in
Arctic aviation, for there have been
two theories as TO the safety of land
ing on the frozen sea. One school has
held that there are scarcely any safe
landing places on the moving Arctic
pack, and the other. Ito which Wilkins
himself belonged. that landings are so
numerous that there seldom is Il 5-mile
stretch without fairly good one.
In less than miles they did find
place that looked good to Wilkins.
E,ielSon made a perfect landing on ice
which turned out to he about 3i2 feet
thick when Wilkins. few minutes
later. made the holes to take sonic
sounding. He found the ocean there
about 3 miles deep. which makes it
very unlikely that any land can exist
in this direction. for their flight. if
continued far enough in the same di-
rection would have taken them near
where Nansen years ago in the Fran
took similar soundingS
Further Travels Planned.
"While wilkins was doing this
sounding Eielson tinkered with the
engine. In two hours they were IN
the air again, flying back toward land.
After about 10 minutes the engine
gave trouble once more. There was
second forced landing, and again Elel-
son made "A perfect landing.
