Dr. Clarence =. Fisher. leader of the
Eckley Il. Coke. 1r.. expedition. has
resumed his work Of excavating tho
palace Of NIcrncpthah. supposed
L'haroah of the Exodus. at Memphis.
The palace is much larger than antici-
nated and seems to promise even greater
archaeological rewards than supposed.
Some of the relics already obtained are
among the most important in the his -
tory of excavation in Egypt.
Egypt is in state of perfect quiet
with food and labor abundant. Doctor
Gordon writes. Prices for both food
and labor are only about 10 per cent
higher than before the war
Doctor Gordon probably will return

Tho stores of archaeological specimens
which Doctor Fisher and his expedition
have accumulated in the last five years
arc now boxed un. at Cairo awaiting
shipment to this country. Thus far no
vessel has been found coming this way.

years experience in the Arctic regions.

valuable collections intact. according to
"A message from him. received at the

tho remains of number of prehistori,
Eskimos, have been shipped to the Uni

GERMAN CONTROL
NOW WIPED OUT
Alien Property Custodian Tells
of Banishment, But Warns
That Hun Is Still
Active.
BY Associated Press.

Boston, Dec, 81. - Germany's war
time plans for after the war
cial supremacy were described by A,
Mitchell Palmer, alien property Gus
todian today at a luncheon of the
Boston Chamber Of Commerce, with
a warning that danger from German
ambitions is not past and cannot be
ignored.
Before this country's entrances into
the war;" Mr.. Palmer said, most of
the great German owned Industrial es-
adjustments were special centers filled
with agents of Germany long plotting
against the safety of the United States.
Il hope to be able to say when peace
is finally declared that there is no
longer n influential German inter-
est in this country, hat every par
ticiple Of German ownership in our
important industries have been wiped
out and that American industries
have been restored to their rightful
ownership.
Il have it from German sources that
Germany's plan for commercial ag-
gression, once the treaty of peace is
signed has meen prepared with such
minute detail that no market in the
world has been left untouched"

ROYAL c. JOHNSON
BACK At OLD HOME
Congressman Soldier Wounded
In France Talks of Problems
Confronting Returned
Fighters.

Aberdeen, S. D., Jan. Congress
man Royal C. johnson, who recently
returned from France, where he had
served in the United States army aa
a first lieutenant until severely
wounded in battle, has made a number
to. Aberdeen q week ago, including one
to the members of the Commercial
Club, and one to the students at the
Northern Normal and Industrial
school. He is scheduled for a talk be-
fore the Rotary Club a little later on,
when the members of that organization
will lender him a banquet.
Lieutenant Johnson refuses to talk
about his own part in the war. devot-
ing his remarks to problems connected
with the welfare Of the soldiers who
come home from France. The repre-
sentative Is not inclined to worry over
the future welfare of the soldier. THE
problem Of caring for the returned SOL
diers is not one of chimerical plans by
utopian dreamers." he told the Com
mercial Club. why not let this task
rest until the men get back and can
have a voice in directing the matter
until they can decide what they want"
He asserted h the soldiers would
return home cleaner morally and
stronger physically than when they
went away. but essentially, beyond the
experience they had acquired and he
physical training given them, they
would be much the same men as when
they went over; that a man who
makes a good soldier in war would be
successful in peace times, and a poor
soldier is apt to prove a failure In
civilian life.
The congressman pointed out some
serious defects In American admins
trative work, mentioning as an In
stance, that !" although millions OF dol
lars worth of American grenades were
manufactured and shipped to France
none was ever used. They were worth
less, and a fatal defect In their manu-
facture was that no means was devised
for drawing the fuses. They will have
to be dumped into the ocean.
Concerning the airplanes, Represen-
tative johnson said: You folks over
here have been told there were Amer
ican planes over there. So there We're
bombing planes. But for every bomb
Ing plane there must be five o
planes, and there were nc American
scout planes. The Germans had con-
troll Of the air at all times on the
American front"
Lieutenant Johnson's experience in
warfare, it is believed by his friends
in the Second South Dakota district,
will prove of great value in recon-
struction work in congress, and in get
ting the soldiers placed in civil life
upon their return from Europe.

to Oscar Rolstad of a COW which he
purchased from Rolstad. The price was
sS5. The Gov did not give as much
milk as Bergerson expected, and he de-

the COW and return him the money
paid for 1t. Yolstad. during the argu-
