Dick Wick Hall
Takes Slam At
Yuma I. V. Road

One of the most flagrant exam
pies of the propa ganda warning
tourists against coming to Califor-
mia via the Yuma route, is found
Ill one of yesterdays Los Angeles
papers, in Il semi humorous article
by Dick Wick Hall, proprietor OF
the garage at Salome,, Arizona, and
self styled editor of the "Salome
Sum- The article flatly warns
tourists to take the right hand
road at the Hassayampa garage as
the left hand road "will lead YOU
off on the Yuma route about 100
miles out of your way d
through the drifting sand dunes. -
The article then advises the tour
list to keep on through Salomc, Eh-
rensburg, Blythe and Mecca to Los
Angeles. The article does not
state anything about the condition
of the road from Salome to Ehrens-
burg, the price of ferrying across
the Colorado at the latter point, nor
the condition of the road from
Blythe to Mecca, which has recent.
ly been abandoned by the Califor-
MIA state highway commission in
favor Of the maimperial Valley
route. The commission has stated
flatly that no improvements will be
made on the Blythe Mecca route,
and bids have already been adver-
tised for on that portion of the
luma-lmperial Valley road which
crosses the desert.
:" Dick Wick Hall may be a
humorist,'' said Secretary Coyle of
the Chamber of Commerce this
morning, land like lot of others
humorists he is fooling the public
by telling them things in such a
funny way that they lose sight of
the main object of his humor, which
is to cover up the fact that the
Iuma-lmperial Valley route is the
best and safest way for west
bound tourists to enter California. ;"

LAUNCH MOVE TO REPLACE B
POWER PLANT AT MUSCLE 2
SHOALS TO ATTRACT FORD

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3. - Pres
ident Coolidge todpvSwas urged by
Representative Madden of Illinois,
chairman of the house .appropria
tioHs committee, to- support a plan
to have the government build q new
power plant at Muscle Shoals, sim
liar to the Gorgass plant recently
sold to the Alabama Power Com
pany.
The object of building the new
plant would be, Madden said, to
get new bid from Henry Ford for
the whole Muscle Shoals project.
The Alabama Power company to-
day applied to Secretary Weeks for
4 now lease on steam plant No.
at Muscle Shoals. Weeks announc-
ed that he would, in reply, state
willingness of the government to
give the company new lease un-
der the same terms as the one uu-
der which they now hold the plant
and which is expiring.
Weeks stated that the govern
ment is paid approximately $250,000
a year for this plant under the
present lease and that the lease is
revocable at any time, so that it
would not hold up any general dis
position of the Muscle Shoals pro-
ject.

Mongolian Desert
Reveals Nest Real
Dinos aur gs
by United Press Leased Wire

SEATTLE, November 5.-Out of
the wilds of the Cobb desert, 4 bar
rem waste in the interior of Mon
golia, will come the scientific proof
or disproof Of the world 5 theories
on the evolution of man.
Together with this information
J viii come the verification of the
history of the world, from the age
Of the earliest dinosaur and other
priceless scientific data that will
'surpass even the widest dreams
of the scientist according to Rov
Chapman Andrews, world famous
archaeologist, who has just return
ed from two years expedition in
China.
Andrews left today for New York
City.
Andrews, together with Professor
Henry Fairfield Osborne, head of
the American Museum Of Natural
History and the man who % years
ago predicted that in China would
be found the archaeological Gar
den OF Eden, has returned TO Amer
lea TO finance five more years of
| work in the field which he has
opened up.
With him, carefully packed and
under bond, Andrews brought the
25 dinosaur eggs that he found III
rock formation in the desert-the
first and only dinosaur eggs ever
discovered BY modern man-and
the bones and skulls of prehistoric
animals that were found in the
vicinity Of the rock egg nest.
Discoveries Invaluable
''Our discoveries are of such a
nature that their value cannot be
| estimated ut The present time, /"
Andrews declared. .'We have IN
covered the richest field for re-
search work IN the world. What
we found was supposed TO have ex.
listed but our discoveries are proof
OF the many theories that have
been held for years. 1t was always
| supposed that dinosaurs laid eggs,
as all other reptiles do, but. it MAS
not until we came across the nest
in the Cobb desert that this theory
! Has known 10 be fact.
There can be no doubt but
that we found dinosaur eggs, In
i the first nest here were five and
in them are embryonic skeletons OF
! Young dinosaurs.
! Andrews explorations have also
/ proved that America and Asia were
1nce connected by one or two land
bridges, he says. These bridges
were probably located at the Berins
Straits and Aleutian islands.
"We know the two continent
were counected,'' he said, "for W.
found early stages Of the dinosaul
life in Mongolia while, the dino
saurs that havo been discovered il
America are OF later specie, com
ing four or five million years aftel

Coolidge, calls for construction of.
o duplicate of the Gorgas plant on
site about 90 miles from Muscle
Shoals, the construction of three
dams and of power transmission
line to Muscle Shoals. He estimat-
ed this would cost about $4,000, 900,
the sum realized by the government
from the sale Of the Gorgas plant.
Madden will introduce bill for
this purpose when congress meets in
December. If the project is auth
orized he said, Ford will be asked
to make a new bid for Muscle
Shoals. Ford has repeatedly said
he did not want Muscle Shoals un-
less he got the Gorgas plant along
with it, The government having
sold the Gorgas plant, is is the
most practicable way to meet
Ford's position, Madden said.
