A National Treasure House

Recent discoveries of extensive cliff ruins, hitherto
unknown in western Colorado, eastern and southern
Utah, and northern Arizona will strengthen the grow
ing sentiment that these treasure houses of extinct
civilization should be preserved nearly possible
their original condition, and in the localities where
they are.
1t may suit the interests of eastern colleges and mu
seus to these priceless relics to their
session. and limited amount of such transfers. if done
under proper supervision, would not harm anyone But
the general rule should be to keep the cliff dweers'
relics where they and insist that the scientists shall
study the problem of the cliff dwelers in the place
where that study may be carried forward to the best
advantage, amid the where those people lived
and carried forward their activities.
The peoepe of the four states most concerned
that these ruins with their contents the prop
erty of the nation rather than Of the states But they
speak the interests Of the nation and in the interests
of science as we'll as in their own interests, in de-
manding that the policy of plunder shall be stopped
and that these national treasure houses shall be protected
both against individuals and against institutions.
