ATLANTIC EXPLORATION
POSSIBILITIES OF AVIATION. (Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn.) Received January 8, 9 a.m. PARIS, January G. The Artaretie explorer, Dr. Charcot, thinks that the British South Polar aerial expedition is feasible. It would only yield scientific results if able to stay at the Pole, and fly above it, making magnetic geographical and aerial discoveries. He does not anticipate landing difficulties, the problem having been foreseen, and solved by the adoption of broad skis affixed to the machine. The real risk will come from the wind and snowstorms.
