TRACES OF ANCIENT AMERICAN RACE: FOUND

 ing His Field

ALBANY, Oreg., March PA burial ground of what Is pronounced to be an ancient group of mound builders has been unearthed directly across the river from Albany by Clyde Peacock, a farmer. MT. Pea cock made the discovery while blow ing a field which had been under cultivation for many years. The plowshare was caught by rock, which, investigation showed, was a fine specimen of mortar.
 Digging further, Peacock un- earthed skulls. knives, skeletons. charcoal and more mortars and pestles.
 An area pr about 50 feet long and about 20 feet wide has been exca- vated to depth of 12 to 121a feet.
 J. G. Crawford. local authority on prehistoric specimens, held the theory that the skeletons were buried shortly after 500 A.

ENGLAND'S LABOR OFFICIAL CONF FRS WITH FRENCHMEN
Farley With German Social iStS'> in Berlin Now Re-
 ported Under Way

LONDON, March 22.-Socialist and laborite members of the English. French and Belgian parliaments are in Berlin conferring with German socialists of the reichstag concerning d settlement of the Ruhr crisis.
 Ramsay Macdonald. leader of the labor party in the house of com mons and one of the most outspoken pacifists during the World war, made this announcement Thursday. Mac Donald had just returned from Paris where he met with French and Bel GiaD socialists, fostering the move ment of going over the heads of the European governments to bring peace.
 The representatives of the radical parties of France, Britain and Bel gium will report back to Paris next week and confer on the results of the conference with the Germ.ns.
 Mcdonald favors settlement of the Ruhr embrogIio through the League of Nations and desires that the body also guarantee France against German aggression.
 The laborite, who made his an- nouncement at dinner given for II vealed that international labor was working out a plan which, it is hoped, will enable the governments, particularly France, to escape grace fully from the difficult situation on the continent.
 Nations Disagree.
 He stated that England and France had not agreed on the advisability of the Ruhr occupation, adding that 5n position in which sense of dignity prevented them from get ting out.
 As means of reconciling the di- vergencies, Macdonald urged that the parliaments of the world get to- gether and present their different viewpoints, weigh the problems in- volved, and then agree on a com mon and practical solution.
 The laborite leader declared that when nationality reaches the stage of economic eXclusiveness it is apt to endanger the peace of the world. La Dor links nationality with inter- nationality" he stated.

MEMPHIS MAN WINS FORTUNE BY CORNER
Continued From Page One.)

dreds of thousands hole. When the game was over and scorers were trying to figure out whether he won 5000, 900 or several millions, the Wall street officials met and declared he couldn't play with them any more. That was all right with Saunders who said he wouldn't play with them again even if they wanted him to.
 That's where the Piggly Wiggly "corner," engineered by Saunders alone by long distance phone from Memphis, stood at the close of play Thursday. Wall street and some of the newspapers smiled indulgently and declared he couldn't have won more than mere s600.000."
 Corners" however, are dangerous things, and history has written that to engineer one, the man must have the tracks laid with gold. By elimi- mating Piggly Wiggly stock from the exchange, Saunders. who now has cornered it, must find another and popular outlet for it. Some time ago he began doing this. offering shares for sale at $55 on partial payment plan-shares for the like of which he is demanding now that "shorts' on the market pay him $25o.
 A campaign similar to that waged against Piggly Wiggly was launched against Stutz Motor stock short
 
 the stock as fast as it was offered for sale. forcing it's price up to $500 a share, and some shorts" were forced to settle at $700 a share. But Ryan had pledged everything he had to engineer his corner; Stutz Motors was not making money; the general public could not be enticed into pop ular buying of the stock, and he failed. Saunders. however, appears to have friends at hand with millions at his disposal. And his business generally. is reported in good shape. last years net earnings being over $650.000.
 One of theNm most notable Boomers" ever manipulated on the New York Stock exchange--one which actually shook the financial district to it's very foundations-was that in 1901 when the elder J. P. Morgan and James J. Hill entered the money lists against E. H. Hartman and Kuhn Loeb & Co. in a battle for the North ern Pacific railroad. While these two gigantic combinations were car rying on subsurface fight, many maneuvers oi which were unknown to the speculative world. operators and boob" speculators started sell ing Northern Pacific short. Not knowing that the purchases of the giants were for delivery and not meriy speculation. they awoke one day ito find that Northern Pacific was selling as high as $100 a share. The giants finally settled with the ''boobs" at $150 share.
