National Geographic Society Doubts Dr Cook Statue
In Washington the National Geographic Society directors decided not to recognize Dr Cook officially for the time being. Dr Cook said no immediate change in the statue. He noted his proof would go first to Copenhagen. He answered George Kennan's critique about pemmican versus musk ox, saying one pound of pemmican equals five pounds of fresh meat and Kennan's figures are valid when adjusted.
