The veteran Arctic explorer, Admiral Sir Leopold McClintock, has written a letter in which he upholds strongly the advantages of the Franz Josef Land route for polar exploration. He says: "Franz Josef Land does almost certain ly approach more nearly to the pole than any other land yet discovered. Therefore I think it is the only route which offers a possibility of success to a North Pole attempt, and this because the Polar Back has been found to be so rugged as to render all attempts to sledge over its surface extremely slow and laborious. To explore the north ern shores of Franz Josef Land alone would constitute a success, and one of no ordinary interest. The explorer would in all probability be enabled to ap proach nearer to the pole than has hith erto been accomplished. A study of the currents and of the positions of the drift-wood from Siberian rivers upon the shores of Spitzbergen would throw light upon the supposed expansion northward of Franz Josef Land. My impression is that a vast deal of that drift-wood must have- reached its desti nation by passing northward and west ward to Franz Josef Land; if this is so, it seems improbable that it extends very much farther northward than is at present known. But all geographical speculation is extremely unreliable. An expedition wintering at Franz Josef Land, with well-prepared sledging equipments, would, in my opinion, be in the very best position for adding to our stock of geographical knowledge in as high a latitude as has ever yet been reached, and with the possibility of a still farther northern advance."
