SAN DIEGO IS HUNTING
FOR THE OLDEST RELICS

SAN DIEGO, April 30-Digging a
palace out of a swamp and sitting the
earth removed therefrom for valuable
curios is some job, especially when
that palace is located in the midst OF
tropical verdure in the center OF
Guatemala, yet. that is what DR.. Edgar
l.. Hewett, director of the American
section of the Archaeological Institute
of America is doing for San Diego's
Panama California exposition.
The palace. a relic of the Mayas,
who thrived. carved statues and built
palaces and temples when the Egypt
ians were building their pyramids,
when the Roman empire was in pro-
cess of formation, has lain under the
silt and vegetation of centuries until
discovered some years ago. DR.. Hew-
EFT has dreamed of uncovering it. but
not until President Collier of the San
Diego exposition gave him commits
sion to explore it and bring what he
finds to San Diego has he had an op-
portunity to do so.
DR.. Hewett says that trees are grow
ing out of the roof of the structure,
which is in the forest near Quirigua,
Guatemala, SO long has the palace re-
mained buried The Mayas were an
intelligent, warlike and highly edu-
Gated race. Some of their stone gods
are of the largest piece of sculpture
the world has produced. The riddle
of the time of their highest culture,
and of their origin, has never been
solved. and it is in hope of being able
to read the mysteries of the dawn OF
history Dr. Hewett, with his assistant
professors and workmen, are now dis
ging and delving in the swamps of
Guatemala. Dr. Hewett will report
to the Smithsonian Institute, the
Archaeological Institute and the Pana-
ma-California exposition department
of archaeology. all thrSe. of which in
stitutions are backing the exposition.

PHOENIX, April 29.-Gov George

p,ant constructed by Meyers and

Governor Hunt. "The fact is, ! know
almost nothing about such things. /

Noticing power plant outside the
prison enclosure, ! asked Superintend-
ent Sims about it. He told me it
was the auxiliary plant built by Mey-
