Canadian Expedition
Recalls Search for
Northwest PASSAGE

Re-discovery Of the Spicer Islands
by Canadian air-borne expedition
stirs memories of early Arctic ex-
ploration when sailing ships first
dared the icy waters north of Can
ada in search of the elusive North
west Passage.
North of Hudson Bay and Of the
Arctic Circle, Foxe Basin-in which
| the Spicer Islands lie-was named
for the English navigator, Luke
Foxe, says the National Geographic
Society.
Capt. Foxe sailed from England
in 1881 on one of the many expedi-
tions sent out in the 18th and 18th
centuries to find a northern short
cut to the trade and riches of the
East. Exploring the waters of Hud-
son Bay and the channels north of
it, he showed not only exceptional
navigation skill but sense OF
humor in some of the place names
he left behind him.
History Upheld Name.
"Cape Wolstenholme' Ultimum
Vale" Foxe explained, was SO called
because he believed "Sir John
Wolstenholme will not lay out any
more monies in search of this bay"
History upheld the title.
In asserting English possession of
the lands he visited, Capt. Foxe paid
his respects to his dread sover-
eigns, Charles the First, King of
Great Brittaine, in such names as
King Charles his Promontory,
1.-The Prince his Cradle" and THE
Prince his Nurse"
He called one group of islands
"Brigges his Mathematickes," and
his own turning point along Foxe
Channel Northwest Foxe, His Fur
thest."
Foxe apparently did not penetrate
as far as the Spicer Islands, in the
heart of Foxe Basin. These islands
were not reported until 1879, when
Capt. Spicer of the old whaling port
of New Bedford, Mass, described
them as low-lying reefs. Although
the islands were marked on sailing
charts, other navigators in the wa
ters did not see them, and until the
present time there was even doubt
as to their existence
Formed Explorers Recalled.
Names of famous men who came
this way dot the map of Canada's
northern islands and seas. Behind
such simple words as Hudson Bay,
Baffin Island, Davis Strait, James
Bay, Frobisher Bay, renamed from
the mistaken Frobisher Strait, lie
the great stories of Arctic achieve
ment and disaster:
How the mutineers set Henry
Hudson and his small party adrift
to die; how Frobisher's ships were
caught in grinding drift ice and
miraculously freed by sudden wind
shift; how James spent miserable
winter in the bay that was to bear
his name, writing about 1t book OF
lamentation and weeping and great
mourning"
Northwest of Foxe Basin stretches
the narrow Fury and Hecla Strait,
named for the twin ships that at
tempted successfully to fight their
way to clear water beyond. Actually
there is no record of penetration of
the strait, which even in summer is
ice blocked. The successful north
west route lies by way ot Davis
Strait, Baffin Bay and wider chan
nels to the north.

THE QUESTION has arisen
whether tips are gratuities not

Bureau of Internal Revenue has
ruled that tips given in connec-
