 In these enlightened days polar exploration is done in machines. The South Pole is reached from Christchurch by "Globemasters" in fifteen hours flying time, with a stop at McMurdo Sound. Though up till ten years ago only a few hundred people had ever seen the Antarctic continent, temporary residents and visitors are now numbered in thousands. A party of six U.S. Senators has been flown over the pole, while journalists, cameramen and other not particularly rugged types, make frequent visits. In these enlightened days polar exploration is done in machines.
