At the bottom of the world lies a mighty continent still wrapped in the Ice Age and, until recent times, unknown to man. It is a great land mass crisscrossed by mountain(51) whose extent and elevation are still uncertain. Much of the(52)is a complete blank on our maps. A 1,000-mile stretch of the coastline has never been(53)by any ship. Man has(54), on foot, less than one per cent of its ares.

Thus, more than a million persons live within 2,000 miles of the North Pole in an area that(64)most of Alaska, Siberia, and Scandenavia—a region(65)in forest and mining industries.
