Fx. pertment Stockholm, March 13.—Alirship ex- ploration of the polar reglon is financlally wasteful, and better sci- entiflc results can be obtained at a small fraction of the cost through the use of an old-fashioned, moder- ate-sized windjammer, according to Captain Hugo N. Palln, a Bwedish explorer, who has placed before the Anthnopological and Geographical Soclety of 8weden a detailed plan to investigate one of the still unknown *“white spots” about the North Pole. An Inherent disadvantage of the alr- ship for polar work, Captain Pallin says, I8 the lack of transportation facllities after making a landing. The Arctic region now best worth studying Captain Pallin considers to be the one north of Siberia, particu- larly the nelghborhood of Nicholas II land. About this territory little is known. It may be as large as Nova Zembla, and may be connected through a serles of {slands with Franz Joset Land. What Captain Pallln proposes to do is to equip a hunting vessel of about 80 tons, having auxillary motors, and then stay in the Arctic at least two and perhaps three years. The crew he would limit to seven men, of which three would be sclentists. The total cost would not be over $30,000.

' INVESTIGATE LISTS Although Total Population of Iraq 3,000,000 Sheiks is Less Than | Show Vote Reglster of 10,000,000, Bagdad, March 13.—Although the | total poulation of Iraq is less than 8,000,000, the parllamentary election returns submitted from all districts | indicate that there are no fewer than [ 10,000,000 voters in the country. It appears that some of the tribal shelks, with political ambitions, were inclined to exaggerate the number of their tribes when complling their electoral registers. An official investigation is now be- |ing made into this sudden swelling |of the population, and the election | results are being held up until the Inquiry has been concluded. De- mocracy is likely to have many more unforeseen results in TIraq. It is significant that eagerness to be rep- resented in the parllament of Iraq outweighed the important consider- |ation that, it compulsory service | were ever introduced, large quotas of men would be expected from | tribes with long lists of voters. It Is urged that a reliable census if Traq be made. It would not be a | novelty in the country.
