It (AP) The locating of the last remnant of the ice cap which once covered l.eOO.OOO square miles of the earth was one of the outstanding accomplishments ; re lated today by members of the Arctic expedition of Lieut Com mander Donald B. MaeMlllan, Just returned ' from three months in the north. Other noteworthy achievements were assembling of a collection of specimens for a comparative study of sea and brook trout and the first scientific collection of flora and fauna from Frobisher's bay region. ' The Bowdoin, sturdy schooner which has taken the explorer north for several years and which this summer withstood a twelve day assault by an ice pack, an chored off Newagen early this morning. . Nine men accompanied IffacMillan on the cruise which started from here on June 22. Commander HacMillan, seated before a craekllng log fire at New agen, related how he found the Ice cap "meta Incognita,' (un known land) between Frobisher's bay and Hudson strait, only a few vision prohibiting Importation, of goods having an American trade mark unless the consent f the owner of the trade mark is given. While predictions have been made that the republican confer ence would deal with dissension in majority banks and efforts to bring protestants Into line, no at tention - was given to this situa tion, nor were rates or any other controversial sections of the bill discussed. . .. Majority of Republicans J Present at Gathering Thirty-seven of the SB republi cans in the senate attended the gathering. Including Senators Nye, North Dakota, and Howell, Ne braska, members of the Indepen dent group opposing the bill. Senators Borah, Idaho; Norris, Nebraska, and LaFollette, Wis consin, also Independents, did not attend." Those present Includ ed Jones, Washington, and Thom as, Idaho. With other far west ern republicans, they have held Informal meetings of their own with a view of mustering strength to restore duties on lumber, shin gles, and other products which the finance committee either placed back on the free list or on which they eliminated house increases in rates. This group held another meeting today In the office of Senator Johnson, of California, but made no announcement of what happened. aays oeiore the - sowdom was caught In the lee pack off Lok'a land and lifted dear of the water by the pressure of the Ice. An eddy whirled the pack, loosened the lee and the schooner slid back Into the water. MaeMlllan made bis way from the pack later by trailing a large berg. The ice cap, which was describ ed by the xplorer as actually two Ice caps, now covers approximate ly 700 square miles and so far as he could determine was becom ing smaller. For years scientists have sought information concerning the possi ble remainder of this Ice cap of the Pleistocene period, which covered all of New England with solid Ice to a depth of 6,000 feet leaving only the tip of Mount Washington showing. It is esti mated that the Ice cap existed for 35,000 years. , Shortness of time prevented the MaeMlllan party from erecting rock cairns to mark the farthest point of the Ice cap but photo, graphs were made wnleh can be used In determining definitely next year It It Is receding. The rock cairns will be, set up next summer, MaeMlllan said, so that it will be possible to determ ine the rate of recession. Dr. W. C.
