Antarctlca- the vast southern
 eontinen. which Commander
 Richard E. Byrd plans to visit,
 n a land Of mystery. Its existence
 was suspected by the early geo.
 raphers. who placed 1t on their
 globes, and ma ny of it's outlying
 islands were discovered by the
 ocean rovers Of the seventeenth
 and eighteenth centuries. The
 continent itSself was first seen in
 1920 by F. Bransfield, an Irish
 man in the British navy. who
 sighted Trinity Peninsula Ora
 ham Land, Parts Of the coast are
 now moderately well known, but
 the s,o0o,000 square miles Of icy
 interior, crossed by lofty noun
 ;ains. remain in obscurity except
 for limited views obtained by
 Amundsen. Scott and Shackleton
 on their polar trips The high
 central plateau Is covered with
 glacier of unknown depth.
 New York. Mar. 23. (Pl-Some of the difficulties confronting an air plane expedition 10 Antarctica, such as Commander Richard F. Byrd is organizing. are set forth in a chap ter which the aviator has contribu- ted to Problems of Polar Re- search" a book just published by the American Geographical society Of New York.
 Reviewing the problems of ex- ploration by aircraft in this vol ume by thirty-one prominent ex- plorers and scientists, Commander Byrd refers 10 the experiences Of his flight over the North Pole and then says:
 Apparently there would be more hazard from storms in the Ant because the spring and summer storms there sometimes reacn great intensity, and not only would It be very dangerous to fly in them, but there would be likelihood Of the airplane being blown about by ellC :" Ii'io NilFi! oli lllt SlOhHI.
 Skis would have 10 be used when flying inland even in the sum- mer. because snow seems to cover large part Of the Antarctic con- tinent and the land is probably too rough for landing with wheels. On the routes that may be flown across the Antarctic continent there would probably be many places where planes could land.
 It would therefore seem inad- visable to make very long flights in the Antarctic, it being more prac- ticable, if possible by accomplish ment, 10 advance by bases say one base every 900 miles. That would decrease the hazard. In view of the absence Of life in the interior Of the Antarctic continent 1t would be impossible to live off tn. country and, in case of a forced landing 500 miles or more from the base, it probably would be likewise impossible for two or three men 10 pull on sledge enough food and other equipment to get hack safely.
 For flying around the edge Of the Antarctic continent an amphiD- ian type of plane would be de-

sirabe."
 Farther along in the chapter Commander Byrd writes:
 ''So little of the Antarctic con- tinent IS known. that t base es-a b. lished anywhere on it's border would. for the air explorer, be al the threshold Of unknown regions. \ combination Of airplanes and dog teams would be preferable in the Antarctic also. Airships would he of little use on account Of strong winds. So far as we know, Amund- sens base at the edge of the ice would be the best location for the main base"
 Sir Douglas Mawson. the Aus tralian explorer. believes there is much in Antarctica that may be Of direct economic value" Sir Doug las, another contributor 10 the book. points out that whaling in Antarctic waters is an established industry and that the penguins and seals on the coasts and in the pack ice zone also offer opportunities for future exploitation. Coal is known to exist over a large area on the continent. he writes, while ores ot many metallic elements have been found in small quan- tlties.
 Finally" he continues. the Ant arctic continent may have a future IS q source Of power by harnessine the phenomenal winds which 1T some areas sweep down as a steady torrent from the cold ice plateau to the sea. There is some possi- bility. therefore, of the eventual strictly limited population on Ant arctic shores. The prospects are yet, however, somewhat remote

JOHN HARPER
HANDCUFFED
AND GAGGED
BY ROBBERS
7haIheiner's Store Looted Sunday
Morning BY Two White Ye99S.

Robbers entered the Thalhimer
store on Broad Street, between
Sixth and Seventh Streets, Sunday
morning about II o'clock and rifi'od
the large safe of sum afterwards
ascertained -to-be S3,9UO.1Z. Iney
left no clue to their identity,
further than that furnished by John
Harper, of 513 E. Leigh Street, who
was serving at watchman at the
time. He was attracted TO the door
by two white men, who after some
enquiries got him to open the door.
1t being church-time with people
passing, he thought nothing of it
until he found himself forced back
and was later hand-cuffed and
gagged, while the robbers proceeded
leisurely with their work.
He was left in this predicament
until 2 P. NJ, when one of the
bookkeepers came in to finish up
some work. He found the safe had
been burglarized and later ap-
preached Harper and released him.
A description was furnished the de-
tectives, who swarmed to the place
and every effort was made to ap-
prehend them. Up to this time no
one has been arrested. Harper has
been with the firm thirty-one years
and enjoys the confidence of all.
The robbers showed a thorough
familiarity with the Gins and outs"
of the place, being able to call the
names of some of the officials. The
robbery had been carefully planned
and more carefully executed.
