POLAR EXPLORATION
LIEUT. PEARY INTERVIEWED. By Cable—Press Association —Copyright London, May 2. Lieutenant Peary, in an interview in London, said that when the field of work either in the Arctic or the Antarctic was finished the object to which ho had devoted 2% years would have been achieved. Arctic exploration was more difficult than Antarctic, as the North Polar Sea broke up annually, destroying all trails and caches, while Antarctic explorers had a permanent surface. He believed that Captain Scott would reach the South Pole without much difficulty unless his crew were taken ill or his ship wrecked.
