other Discoveries Show Evolution
of Prehistoric Architecture.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-Dr. J. Walter
Fewkes, Chief of the Bureau of Ameri-
can Ethnoogy, has just returned from
two months field work on the Mesa
Verde National Park, Colorado. This
park is the only one reserved by the Gov
eminent for the protection of aboriginal
buildings. The field work of the last
summer was devoted to cliff dwelling
called Square Tower House, from a high
tower situated midway in its length.
This tower is forty feet high and is
the highest building constructed of ma
sonry by Indians north Of Mexico before
the coming of the whites. 1t adds to
this unique feature the best known ex-
ample of prehistoric masonry. shown In
the construction of the roofs of two cir
cular rooms. The original rafters are
still in place. showing the marks of stone
implements used by the builders. The
whole ruin measures 1876 feet in length.
An unexpected result of the field work
this summer was the discovery of many
inconspicuous buildings among the
cedars on top of the plateau The EVIL
dences of these buildings before exca-
waiting we're very obscure, but they are
so numerous in certain areas that there
is hardly a square quarter mile in which
one of them does not occur. One of
these small buildings when excavated
was found to belong to very ancient
type, probably the oldest on the mesa
From this old building TO the cliff houses
lies the evolution of the highest form OF
prehistoric architecture In our country.

LIQUOR REFORM OR
BONE DRY BRITAIN
People Must Choose, Warns
Lord D'Abernon.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press
LONDON, Sept. 16.--Britain must choose
between strict Government control Of the
liquor traffic or absolute prohibition. In
the opinion OF Lord D'Abernon. chairman
Of the Liquor Control Board.
'If the question is considered broadly
there are only two policies, control or
prohibition" said Lord D'Abernon. RE
version of the old pre-war conditions
would mean drunkenness, lnefficiency, III
health, disease and the misery which has
VIGOROUSLY resulted from drunken habits
in the past.
II believe that control Is possible. The
experience of the war shows that tenn
perance and efficiency can be obtained
by regulation. believe the liquor trade
it susceptible to reform. Recent declara-
tions by leaders in the trade appear to
me to warrant the belief that the new
school in the brewing trade Is gaining
a hearing, and that they have realized
that the old methods of the anti-reforn.
whole hog indulgence advocates are no
longer suitable to modern conditions.
The same change Is in evidence among
licensed victuallers. get many letters
from them urging that there be no re-
turn to the old hours. during which their
work lasted seventeen hours instead OF
six daily and when the conditions Tor
public house servants was a scandal.
There can be no doubt that the posi-
ton of licensees is enormously better
than before the war. They work shorter
hours they have not the same difficulty
with drunkenness. and they certainly do
not make less money"

Prince. Gov. Lowden paid tribute to
the Belgian nation and declared the little
kingdom had been an inspiration to all
the world in the struggle against au-
tocracy.
At the tomb of Lincoln King Albert
said in part:
ut was a duty Of gratitude toward
the American nation and duty OF re-
spect toward one not only of your coun-
try but one of the worlds best citizens
to come here to Springfield to honor
President Lincoln's memory.
Honesty and straightforwardness
absolute faith in the future of the nation,
indomitahle courage in facing the ma
tons enemies, firm and clear sighted
statesmanship--these virtues have been
personified by your ilustrious President.
1--WE who are here to-day, coming from
a far distant country, can never forget
what President Lincoln has done, and
may we find in his noble example the
strength and firnness which makes a
ruler worthy to be dedicated in his coun-
try to that always unfinished work OF
progress, welfare and ideals which this
great man had thus far 50 nooiy ad-
vanced."
In his address Gov Lowden said:
I'VE hope that Belgium will speedily
recover from the ravages of war that
she will speedily bind up her wounds
and that her people will enter upon new
paths Of peace and happiness and show
10 ALI the world that after all the best
security of a nation rests upon justice
and courage and honor"

PRINTING FOREMEN
SEEK STRIKES END
One Magazine Is Put Out En-
tireIy on Multigraph.

A committee of printing shop foremen
held a joint meeting with representa-
tlves of the labor committee of the
Printers League and officials of the
printing pressmen's union at the Hotel
Pennsylvania yesterday afternoon In an
effort to find some satisfactory way of
untangling the mixup caused by the
strike of insurgent job and book press
men.
The foremen were told that the en-
ployers will not dicuss terms until the
secessionists reorganize and return to
the international union. 1t was further
made known that such n movement
must exclude the strike leaders, Barney
Nolan and James Basley.. with whom
the employers labor committee abso-
lutely refuses to treat.
William Green, chairman OF the em-
ployers' committee, said after the meet
ing that the foremen's delegation, which
was headed by Charles J. Macarthur.
would carry this word to the men and
try to effect reconciliation with the
union. This might be done to-day or
not for ten days or possibly not at all,
he said. The strike has already run for
six weeks and has almost completely
tied up the job and book printing trade.
Many of the monthly magazines have
delayed publication of their current is
sue. Dress Essentials, a publication de-
voted to the.lace and embroidery trades,
got out it's october number yesterday,
containing forty-four pages of adver-
Using. fourteen pages of editorial COM
ment and a number of illustrations, on
the multigraph machine. The editorial
pages were typewriter and the adver-
tlsements were hand lettered or repro
duced from previous issues. The re-
productions were photoengraved.
This Job was said to be the largest
ever undertaken without the use of type
or presses. The employers consider it a
point gained in their favor
