Hazel Green, Wis, May 1O-No
trace has been found of the bandits
who invaded Hazel Green early Sun
day morning, blew the safes at the
Staver store and at the depot and
then stole a Ford touring car from
the Delco Light building. Railroad
detectives are aiding in the search
and description of the stolen car
was broadcast from the radio station
at Davenport, Ia. The thieves OBJ
tanned about $50 at the Staver store.
At the depot they got but a small
amount of money and they left $500
worth of drafts and checks scattered
around the room in which the safe
stood. The door of the safe fell on
a pocketbook containing $35 and this
was overlooked by the robbers. The
safes were badly wrecked, indicating
that the robbers used powerful
charges of explosives both at the

Credits Maya Tribe
Of Mexico Having
Oldest Civilization
u. S. Explorer Reports
Results Obtained From
YucdtGli Excavations.
BY the Associated Press.

by lne AtSnCld'eu Ireks-
BERKELEY. Calf, December IL
The Maya tribes of Mexico, ancestors
Of the Aztecs, probably had the oldest
civilization In the world and evolved
the first system of mathematics, ac-
cordlng to Prof. A. L. Kroeber of the
University of California department
of anthropology, who has just return
ed from making excavations in Yu-
catan
Prof. Kroeber said the Maya civili-
zation dated back at least 1000 years
before the time mathematical calcu-
lation as used now was first estab-
lished in India in the fifth century.
Some scientists estimate, he added
that the Mayas flourished as far back
as 5000 years before the fifth century
las the Greeks preceded the Ro-
mans with a high standard of civili-
zation, so the Mayas preceded the
AStecs in Mexico" he continued.
Buried pottery and ruins of cities
recently discovered show a high state
of civilization, between 200 and 500
AID, by a race known as the Mayas
which was copied later by the Aztecs,
The Mayas in Yucatan achieved
higher things in art and literature as
well as in science. They were the
inventors. The Toltecs Immediately y
preceded the AZtecs and doubtless
gave them the benefits of Maya civ
iliZation. About the year 500 AID
when the decline of the Mayas began
started a period about which little
is known, but it may be assumed that
the culture of the Mayas vas carried
to the north from Yucatan into the
high plateau country where Mexico
City stands.
The Aztec. records cover about two
centuries prior to the Spanish con-
quest The Aztecs ruled their cap
tive tribes with a high hand, taking
from them the tribute which enabled
them to build their cities

FRENCH OPEN FILM
WAR ON AMERICA
Government Asked to Ban
United States Firms Making
Historical Movies.
BY the Associated Press.


PARIS, December 11.-Influence of
the strongest sort is being brought
to bear upon the government TO in
duce II to refuse any further au-
thoriza tions for American moving
picture companies to make films with
French historical buildings as back
ground. Foremost in this movement
are the biggest French daily news
papers which have certain connections
with the French film concerns.
The reasons given for this move
lnent are that the American companies
buy no French made films. although
American firms make immense sums
out of moving pictures made by them
on French soil An American moving
picture actress was recently permit
ted to make certain scenes OF a his
torical picture in the courtyard of the
Chateau Fontainebleau, but she was
refused permission TO utilize the in
side of the chateau.
American moving picture distribut-
ing interests are understood to have
explained that they would be glad to
use French films, but that they seldom
found them suited to American tastes.
They contend that the reproduction
of historical scenes in France in
American made pictures are of inn
mense value TO France as an adver-
tisement Representations also have
been made to the government that
every time an American company
makes a film in France employment
is given to many French artists who
are exceedingly glad to earn dollars
