Reindeer to Supply World's Meat In Half Century, Stefansson Says/biasiad o it By HENI“ T. RUSSELL United Press @Raff Correspondent London, May-8 (UP)—That the human race would emter another “peindeer age* within haif a cen- tury was the pregiction made today by Vilhjalmur Stefansson, the cele- brated arctic explorer, who said that the principal meat supply of the world within five decades would come from Alaskan, Siberian and Canadian reindeer instead of from | the steers of the cattle ranges. In an interview with the United Press, the arctic explorer empha- sized the fact that the reindeer of | the arctics were far more economi- cal as a food than the cattle which have to be foraged during the win- ter months on the American and Argentine ranges. Stefansson pointed out that rein-, deer live on grass during the sum- | mer time, in -spite of the popular belief that there is no grass in the cold country, and that during .the winter they subsist en lichens and bushes. When they are alaughtered, | he said, all the packers have to do | is to hang them out in the open air | and the following morning they will | be completely frozen and ready for | shipment. Even during the warm summer months, Stefansson said. the slaugh- tered reindcer can be stored just a few feet under the surface of the ground, where the permanent arctic | frost will kep them preserved for a | long period, in a natural refrigera- tor. Stefansson, who has lived on | reindeer meat for many months at | a time during his exploration trips. SAT.

The explorer said it soon would be necessary for the world to sub. stitute reindeér meat for beef, due, first to the United Btates’ embargo on Argentine beef, and to the fact that the Argentine supply was di- minishing because of the growiny consumption among Argentinians of their own meat products. | Stefansson also took occasion to |deride the popular belief that the | natives of the arctic zone were de- acendants of the ancient Greeks, a | belief, he said. which is taught even in the textbooks of the modern uni- versities throughout the world. He characterized the belief as “my- | thology of the arctics.” PRINGESS PICKS PRINCE Jilts One Last January On Eve Of pigtrict of Columbia.
