Arriving by airplane on the way to Seattle, Dr. Greist said Eskimos stripped the skins from their boats and cooked their boots for food this year because of scarcity of game to the region of Point Barrow. Dr. Greist, learning Capt. John Bankland of the trading schooner C. S. Holmes had denied accounts of starvation among the natives, said Backland had visited Barrow this season, but had not gone to Barter Island or other districts to the east. "If he had gone 600 miles east of Barrow, he would have seen famine conditions," Dr. Greist said.
