FUTURE FEARS,

Dealing with the question of scaling operations in the White Sea, in the columns of an Oslo con- temporary, Captain Chr. Steenstrup states that this year six vessels have been lost, fourteen in 1927, seven in 1926 and nine in 1925, or a total of 36 in the four years, and he says that it is to be feared that, further losses will take place..
On the other hand, he states that}| the Russians carry on sealing operations In the White Sea with large steel steamers, but it has noti been heard that any of them have been lost. On, the coast of New- foundland sealing operations have
