Bernard said he intended to t;tke Apuktwana le the outside world so people could aeo what the queer "Blond Eskimos'' are like. Bernard attempted to press through the Northwest Passage and reach the Atlantic Ocean but was halted by ad verse ice conditions. "When he turned back from his -voyage eastward, he had progressed over two-thirds of the way along the narrow body of ice blocked water lying along the north ern Coast of North America between ihe Atlantic and the Pacific. Much of Bernard's time while away was spent In the region between Ade laide Peninsula and the southeastern corner of Victoria Land. He left Nome on a trading expedition in the summer f.f 1916 and. after-wintering on the way, arrived the following summer at Taylor Island, located in . Victoria Strait, off Victoria Land. He did not jntend to stop at Taylor Island but was compelled to make It his headquarters- when hla boat be came frozen in and was not cleared of tho Ice for two years. When he finally cleared the boat, in 1919 he proceeded on his way but got only to the Kagrok Klver on Coronation Unit when he was frozen in again. During the winter of 1919-20 he visited King William Land and adjacent sections. Last summer Bernard decided to re turn to the outside world and turned about and headed for Merschel Island, Cape Barrow and Nome. Weathei conditions were good and he made the rim before the lie closed in for thi winter. - Aboard the Teddy Bear was a large collection of furs for which Bernard had traded while in the north. to the level now prevailing in inter state commerce. The commission held that the present charges in the two states amounted to a discrimina tion against interstate traffic. Both Arkansas and 'Minnesota, are numbered among the 17 states who re fused to giant a 20 per rent increase In passenger fares last August to con form with the incrnas In Interstate traffic, and the decisions today mark 'the first action to be taken " by the commission since hearing were given seven states here recently.
