THE ANTARCTIC.
THE USE OF AEROPLANES. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Paris, Jan. 5. The Antarctic explorer Charcot thinks the British South Polar aerial expedition feasible, but it would only yield scientific results if it were able to stay at the Pole and fly above it, making magnetic, geographical, and aerial discoveries. He does not anticipate landing difficulties. The problem foreseen would be solved by the adoption of broad skis affixed to* the machine. Tho real risk comes from wind and snowstorms.—Times Service.
