HALT AT TOMB HELD
AS BLOW TO SCIENCE
Egyptian Police Supplant Carter
in Control of Tut-ankh.Amen's
Sepulcher.
TOURIST TRADE IS HARD HIT
Arrival Of Allenby Expected to
Cause Unique Situation.

BY GEORGE WALTER MEACHAM.
By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News
Copyright. 1924.
| LUXOR, February 15.-It became
known today that the insult to the
/, scientists offered by the ministry OF
public works, which resulted in the
stoppage Of all work on King Tut
ankh-Amen's tomb. was aggravated
by the fact that instead of trusting
Howard Carter to carry out the in
structions of the ministry, this de-
| partment sent from Cairo a special
police squad Of seven men to take
charge Of the tomb. Three more men
were added Thursday, making a
J guard of ten.
The correspondent happens to know
| that M. Pierre Lacau, director general
OF antiquities, never has answered a
| letter addressed to him on January
| 80 , by a number Of distinguished
psychologists. protesting against the
! interference with work at the tomb
1t has just been made public and it's
publication inevitably must precipi-
! tate some official action, either by the
ministry of public works or the an
tiGuities service.
| Letter II Unanswered.
| The letter, which was signed by
James II. Breasted. Alan H. Gardiner
Albert NJ. Lythgoe and Percy f. New
| berry. was written without Carter's
\ knowledge, and the whole affair is
! one involving the future of archie
| illogical and scientific work in Egypt
and is not merely personal support of
! Carter by his co-workers.
| Americans cannot fail to view
| Isympathetically the sturdy efforts OF
! Egyptians toward self-government
| and the glaring mistake of one de-
| partment must not be laid to the en-
| tire government.
Obviously the tomb was a drawing
attraction for tourists to Egypt this
year and the present shutting down
of work is sure to affect seriously
| what promised to be the best year
since before the war.
Situation Mt Deadlock.
The situation now is at a dead
lock. because the government police
guard the tomb door, to which Car
ter holds keys which he cannot be
forced to give up.
The arrival of Lord Allenby on
February 20 is likely to create an
extraordinary situation, for as high
commissioner he naturally desires to
visit the tomb.
The correspondent has interviewed
all those Immediately concerned in the
present crisis and the unanimous ex-
preston is one of regret that the
first moves of the new Egyptian gov
ernment should have precipitated a
Misunderstanding with a body of
scientific men intent only upon an
unselfish effort to retrieve for the
Egyptian government and the world
relics of glorious Egyptian past

agreed among archeologists that
Mr.. Howard Carter is conducting his
complex and very difficult task in a
manner beyond all praise. Altogeth-
er apart from the coIlaborators who
happen to be among the signers OF
this letter, it is everywhere recog--
niZed that the co-workerS assembled
by Mr.. Carter form a group of scien-
lists of unsurpassed ability and ex-
perience such as has never been at
the disposition of any other arche-
illogical enterprise in this country
before, and you yourself have ac-
knowledged your complete satisfac-
tion with results they are achieving.
Nevertheless. their work has un-

questions Of a similar nature-mat-

quential In comparison with the Sc
curity Of the scientific record Of the
tomb and the preservation of its con-
tents. Besides endangering the COM
pleteness and security of the records,
the unnecessary delays now being in
CURED are seriously obstructing and
delaying related enterprises of the
