Car Ditehed; Ono Hurt.

g. M. Gordon and son Roy escaped
very fortunately Friday night from
an accident on the Lincoln highway,
They were returning home from an
extended trip to Potter. Neb., and
were about six miles west Of the city
when the cars lights, which had been
giving them trouble, deceived them as
to the road. They got too near the
side Of the road and went down into
a ten-foot ditch. Both men escaped
without serious injury, but the elder
Gordon strained his back painfully.
He is resting at the home Of his
granddaughter, Mrs. M. Lee Price.

built separately OF well fashioned
stones, set in mud for mortar. The
walls contain no broken joints as
used in masonry now and are there
fore weak, Particularly at the corn
ers. In the center of each group OF
rooms is room dug below the sur
face Of the others and evidently used
for council chamber.
The walls OF the rooms are decor
ated with paints. broken pottery and
pebbles. Some of the buildings are
three stories high. The larger group
is similar and contains 207 rooms OF
all kinds.
Professor Spencer explained that
nothing was known OF the history OF
the inhabitants. The only mention
Of them, is q legend of the Ute
Indians. that the people were de-
stroyed by their enemies and turned
into fishes.
An abundance OF pottery and stone
implements has been found. Corn
beans and squash seed have been
uncovered and reservoir system
was unearthed on the lands above
the canyon. But no metal has been
found anywhere. AS the pottery and
textiles that have been found are
crude and evidently only made from
materials near by. scientists are in
clined to place the people In the
neolithic age.
From the method OF building and
from unique carrying pole that has
been found; the theory is advanced
that the cliff dwellers were ances-
tors of the Pueblo Indians. Nothing
certain can be determined. The

Washington, Aug. 1.-Announcement
of the attitude of the United States
toward the bolsheviki invasion in Eu-
rope and Asia is not expected until
the note addressed to the Washing.
ton government by Poland has been

With the threatened political and
economic collapse of Poland, reactions
Of similar gravity anticipated in states
adjacent to the new republic, officials
described the situation as approaching
a point where self-interest would
prompt the United States TO take
action.
III view was expressed that the
threat Of a notification Of the vic
tory over Germany was contained in
the understanding said to exist be-
tween soviet Russia, and Germany,
and that this offered sufficient provo
cation for action by the United States.
These officials took the position that
as a power associated with the allies
in the occupation of the Rhineland,
the United States maintained a very
evident interest in the preservation
of the victory although it has not
ratified as yet the treaty Of Yer
sailles.
Included among steps which the
United States might find itself com
PEELED to take, the officials suggest
ed extension of credits to permit the
purchase by Poland of surplus
war materials, a declaration Of moral
support for Poland and a warning
to the soviet government not TO
trespass further beyond its boun-
diaries. Military aid, it was added,
could be considered only if all else
failed.
Military authorities suggested thai
