ISSUE FRAUD ORDER
AGA|NSTUN|VERS|TY

The Post Office Department today
entail University and H. P. Holler,
president, at 1902 Oregon avenue and
North Beach, Md.
In his report to the Postmaster GEN
eral, recommending the issuance of
the order, H. j. Donnelly, acting So
licitor, declared that the evidence in
the case showed that this is a
scheme for obtaining money through
the mails by means of false and
fraudulent pretenses, representations
and promises"
THE evidence shows that the Ori-
entail University operates exclusively
through the mails. and, representa-
tions in its literature to the effect that
residence courses are offered by that
institution are found to be for the
purpose of inducing prospective stu
dents to believe that the concern is
a bona fide educational institution"
Mr.. Donnelfy declared.
The evidence shows, and 1 so find,
that the so-called faculty of this in
stitution functions principally in in
OuClHP persons TO DecO1lle SluCentS
and remit the necessary fee," Mr..
Donnally's report states. THE resi-
dent and nonresident professors
have no duties as such. except that a
few of them sign diplomas
The evidence shows that two or
three years ago it was proposed to
organize a medical department. but
this was not done. However, medical
degrees are still being issued by the
concern" the acting solicitor found.
President Holler of the Oriental
University declared this afternoon
'I am convinced that this Is a con-
spiracy against the Oriental Univer-
sity by people politically interested,
believing that we are more interested
in other nations than in America,
which is a gross misstatement.
we are for America first and all
the time. The evidence presented was
partly on false affidavits secured by
inspectors for the government, which
were clearly disproved by our evil
dence presented"

CALL ARMY "BoY SCOUTS
Germans Say Ehrhardt's Forces
Merely Unorganized Rabble.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, November 6.-The army
under Capt. Ehrhardt of Kapp
putsch fame. assembled along the
borders between Thuringia and Ba-
varia, which has been a plaything
for both foreign and domestic propa-
gandists for the past ten days is de-
clared in responsible quarters here
never to have been taken seriously
by either the Bavarian government or
the central government in Berlin.
The threats that it would march on
Berlin have been ignored by federal
officials
Ehrhardt's so-called army is real
ly only a collection of bushwhackers
who have been careful to keep out
of range of the three federal regi-
inents which are in Thuringia guard
ing the border against outlaws from
Bavaria, it is asserted in authorita-
tive quarters. which declare that
Ehrhardt himself does not dare enter
Thuringia. as he would be captured
by the federal troops and executed.
EhrhardtS forces are said by federal
officers to he in reality only a lot Of
disorganized youths. most of whom
were unable to get into the fascist
organization of Adolph Hitler. The
federal officers estimate their strength
at not more than 1000, and describe
them as boy scouts having an outing
playing at war, but neither killing nor
getting killed, and taking good care
not to get in the way of the regular
troops.
Even the Berlin newspapers which
are most severe in criticism of the
central government have ceased to
carry exaggerated reports circulated
from the Thuringian border by politi-
cal agitators.

RUM,RONNlNG CHIEF
DRYlANIPROBLEM
Coast Guard Inadequately
Fitted to End Smuggling,
Says Mrs. WiIlebrandt.

Rum-running presents now the
greatest problem in prohibition en-
forcement. Mrs Mabel Walker WILLIE
brandt. assistant attorney general in
charge of enforcement prosecutions.
declared in her annual report today
to Attorney General Daugherty. The
report also commented on the light
sentences given dry-law violators in
some federal courts, as compared with
those imposed in other courts.
"The liquor smuggling business"
said Mrs. Willebrarfdt. "is the biggest
criminal problem the United States
has ever faced on the high seas. The
coast guard is our police force with
in our territorial waters, and is as
sisted by the customs officers and the
United States marshals and their
deputies of the Department of JUS
tice in the coastal states. The coast
guard is the only force having equip
ment to deal with smuggling on the
high seas. and observation is con-
vincing that it's equipment is not suf-
ficient to suppress ii along our long
Atlantic and Pacific coast lines"
big Profits Indicated.
While no precise estimate of the
amount of liquor smuggled in could
be obtained. the report said, an in
dication of the amount was seen in
imports to and exports from nearby
British possessions. Official data, it
was said, showed that liquor ship
ments from Nassau alone-and all
said to be destined to the United
States-were valued at s7,059,294
portations there totaled S4,500.00O,
the difference being held to repre-
sent bootleggers' profits from opera
tons at this one port.
Citing the difference in federal court
punishments for prohibition violation.
Mrs. Willebrandt said that the average
Jail sentence imposed in the eastern
Kentucky district was thirty-seven days,
as compared with an average sentence
of only twenty-one hours in the western
Kentucky district. In western Michigan
the average sentence for prohibition
violations was four months and three
days. while II was only thirteen hours
in Rhode Island. In northern Ohio the
average sentence was three months and
seventeen days, as compared TO aver
ages of five days in Connecticut and
Massachusetts. The northern Illinois
average was twenty-seven days.
Use of paddock Extended.
Speed iR disposing of prohibition
eases has been urged upon district at
torneys, the report said and use of
the paddock" provisions of the prohibi-
tfon act has been extended.
Summarizing also tax and other pro-
cetriings handled by her office, the as
sistant attorney general reported many
cases decided favorably to the govern
ment More than a thousand cases un-
der the pure food law were terminated
during the year.

The underlying strata are pleis-
tocene. The human remains occur
in the hard crust which was once a
kitchen hidden surface. an artificial
surface composed of the refuse of
animal food brought to the site by
this layer of shell material are flakes
Of charcoal and ashes. This surface
was probably originally of considera
BILE thickness, and was built up grad
ually as result Of the use of the
natural mound as a camp site. The
animal remains seem to be chiefly Of
recent types.
Location Of Village.
This layer became cemented to-
gether with calcite deposited by
water percolating into it from below
and evaporating as 1t reached the
surface. The location favors 1t being
a hidden. since 1t lies in wedge
formed by Mission creek and the
beach. and was formerly surrounded
by tulemarsh, affOrding the primitive
inhabitants an ideal location for a

1t is believed by Mr.. Harm gton
that the skulls are of ancestors of
