Rossman made eight trips North. He served with the Will kins Expedition in nineteen twen- ty-six. He tried to fly over Mt. -icKinley last year and reached an altitude of nine thousand feet, but failed to soar over the high est point.
 He said he was convinced that land exists beyond, the Northern borders of Alaska and Siberia. He thinks that weather disturbances originate there, and properly ob- served. would be valuable in n~e- dieting the weather all over tte Northern hemisphere. He says that if land exists it would be possible to establish a meterolo- sical base and g, mooring mast for dirigibles. thus shortening the distance. between New York and Tokyo about four thousand miles. He willia lvave for the North in about . fortnight.
