SUBMARINES MIGHT HELP IN POLAR SEAS.
CAPTAIN WILKINS DECLARES NO NEW LAND IN THE ARCTIC. (United Press Assn.—By Electric Tel egraph.—Copyright.) OSLO, May 21. Captain Wilkins declares that there seems to be no chance of finding any new land of any importance, judging by the results of the recent Pol&r expeditions. He considers that scientific expeditions in future will concentrate on oceanographic discoveries, possibly with the help of submarines. There is no reason why they should not voyage from Spitzbergen to Alaska. Captain Wilkins denies that he was invited to accompany Major-General Notile.—Australian Press Association— United Service.
