Sir Charles said British scientists, as well as officials of the Royal observatory at Greenwich, were greatly Interested In the scheme.

"I have been doing preliminary experimentation for eight years and I am certain that aucli a shaft 1a a practicable engineering project and that the only thing necessary to make It a reality la the money. It might be possible to go deeper than 12 miles. 1 would have the shaft 20 feet In diameter and lined with granite, which experiments have shown would not fall in. The shaft would be sunk to different levels, In the aame way that mining shafts are sunk, and It would be necessary, after wa got down to a sufficient depth, to have the heat pumped out. At 12 miles the temperature is probably as high as 272 degrees Fahrenheit'' Dr. Arthur Selwyn Brown discusses Sir Charles' project at considerable length in the New York He says In part: "Engineers who have worked In mines candidly admit that a deep exploration shaft properly managed would be of Inestimable value to science. There should be one In every continent equipped with a full scientific staff of observers and instruments, like an observatory. But when suA a great depth aa Sir Charles Parsons suggests to mentioned, they do not at all share his sanguine views. A depth of about three miles to the beat they would admit, under present experience, to be possible for a shaft. There are numerous difficulties In deep sinking which are cumulatively felt every foot thut Is sunk when the hot sono is met at depth. Ventilation, wafer bnlllng, hauling would all present difficult problems at the depth of two miles nnd there would be the difficulty In blocks dowfl and getting the granite act In position. "Nevertheless, the proposal is one that merits attention. A shaft properly sunk to the greatest attainable depth would be of far greater scientific vulue than a large number of polar and equatorial exploration.
