It is hard to gtmge how successful these efforts havs been as no talk of failure is permitted.

lt is believed that; Rilssia made available to Canada and the United States during the war some of the information she had acquired for dealing with Arctic problems such as building and maintaining roads and airports.

Russia Active In North

One of Russia's greatest experts on the Arctic is Ivan Papann, who, in 1937, with three companions, spent 247 days on an ice floe drifting from near the North Pole to a point on the Greenlanrfcoast. lThe four made scientific obser-

Vatlong en route. The following year he was made head of the central administration ' of the Northern Sea route. lllllllscd ,with converting the Arctic Ocean jwatarway into a safe route which .would ensure communications i from Murmansk or a similar north- ' em port, to the Far East. , Under him. alrbases were estab- i lished for reconnaissance pi es, a network of wireless stations was extended. port equipment was im- l proved and scientific research was tpresseri. He was known to be fwritlng a mammoth report on the ' subject 1n 1944. The foreword to his book. "Life O11 An Tce Floc." says that under ISoviet policy, "the 1M6 0f U19 Arctic was changed . . . Arctic set- tlements are linked up with the I mainland by dozens of shill lflylns ‘the Northern sea route from west to cost and from east to west. Ora mines, coal mines and sawmills ~ are operating tn the Arctic: pros~ pecting for oil has been carried out with success."

Norway also is keenly interested in the Arctic and maintains the Spitsbergen and Arctic Research Council at Oslo which studies Arctic problems and vrsnnim ex- peditions to the North.
