By international News Service

NEW YORK, Sept. S.-New York
City's bitter mayorality campaign
the most bitter perhaps in the city 8
history-went into its final phase
TODAY with political leaders making
confident claims of victory.
The people cast their ballots in

The leading Democratic candidates.
Mayor John F. Hylan, the incum-
bent, and State Senator James 7.
Walker, were booked for an inten-
sive week of campaigning. Their

has been making day and night
speeches. some days as many as
half a dozen.
Gap Smith i'm Fight
Walker, sponsored by the pictur-
esque ZAP Smith, governor of New
York, also has been making scores
Of speeches. With him on the
speakers platforms on many occa-
s1ons was Governor Smith.
Walkers managers have been
loud in their claims Of victory. even
going as far as 10 declare Hylan
knows he will be defeated and that
he plans to run as an independence
II he loses at the polls next Mon
day. Hylan, however, has made no
comment upon this suggestion
Hylan and Walker both have

has charged Hylan with eight
years of incompetency"
Republicans Hopeful
Meanwhile, while the Democrats
are engaged in their hot fight, the
less spectacular fight among the
Republican candidates is attracting
no small amount of attention. The
Republicans feel that the Hylan-
Walker fight has disrupted the
Democratic party in New York
city TO such an extent that a Re-
publican victory in the election is
not improbable-that a Republican
victory in the primary this year
will mean something.
Advocates of Frank y. Water
man, organization designee for the
Republican nomination, predicted
today that their candidate will re-
ceive twice as many votes as the
number polled by his two competi-
tors, John ]. Lyons and William
Bennett together.

nv InternataonaI News Service

NEWARK, N. j., Sept. 81
Harrison Noel, 20-year-old cole
gian, will go on trial for the
confessed staying of six-year-old
Mary DAILY. the child he kidnapped,
and for the murder of Raymond
Pierce, negro chauffeur, whose au-
tomobile he stole in connection
with the abduction, according to
plans made today at conference
of J. Victor D'Aloia, acting county
prosecutor, and Capt. James A.
Mason, chief of county detectives.
Mental Test Not Asked.
No motion for mental examina-
ton of Noel will be made by the
Essex county prosecutors office, it
was announced. If the youth Is
to be saved from the electric chair
by a plea of insanity, the action
will have to originate with the de-
Tense, officials said.
The whereabouts of the man most
interested in his defense, Dix w.
Noel father of Harrison, continued
to mystify authorities. The elder
Noel a New York lawyer, was re-
ported to have gone to Chicago
Saturday to attend a funeral of a
step-sister. Confirmation of this
expedition was not forthcoming at
Noels law office or at his home.
Believes Story Bunk
Captain Mason frankly declared
he believed the story of Noel be-
ing in Chicago "to be the bunk.
Noel was reported as greatly
worried over Harrison two or three
days before the kidnapping. He at
tempted to get in touch with his
son in Montclair by telephone at
II o'clock Friday morning. 1t was
about this time that Harrison set
out on his kidnapping job. The
elder Noel in a worried state of
mind is known to have called up
his brother, Charles Noel, at Hunt
ington, Long Island.
The body of little Mary Daily
was taken from the DAILY home in
Montclair this afternoon for burial
in Holy Name Cemetery, Jersey
City.
A thousand men, women and
children, many of them sobbing,
stood quietly OUTSIDE the mouse as
the small white casket bearing "the
little girl with the pink dress
was carried out.
All along the line to the GENE
terry men removed their hats and
pedestrians paused to bow their
heads as the funeral coretge passed.
The youth who admitted shoot

pink dress" and hiding her body in
a clump of bushes after kidnapping
her in an automobile stolen from
Raymond Pierce, negro chauffeur,
whom he also murdered, was closely
guarded in a cell within a cell.
Noel maintained silence, making
no attempt to talk with his at
PENDANTS.
To Be Arraigned
Noel has yet to be arraigned for
the murder of the DAILY child. He
has pleaded not guilty to the
charge of killing Pierce, entered a
plea of guilty to kidnapping Mary
Daily and has yet to face a charge
of assault and battery brought by
John Sandin, who was wounded by
Noel when he pursued the kidnaper.

shows that trees not only register
the passing years by their rings, but
the contour thickness and conforma-
ton of these rings indicate climatic
changes from year to year. More
over, these changes are cyclic.
''Drs A. f. Douglas of the Univer-
sity of Arizona and the Carnegie In
stitution of Washington has devel-
oped a method which science now
recognizes as a trustworthy process
of reading tree records of time and
climate.
"Of course, there are no thousand
year-old trees among the pines and
jumpers of New Mexico or Arizona.
The oldest ones vet found are from
400 to 500 years old The question
then arises: How bridge the gap be-
tween these trees and the span of
years represented by the timbers used
in the roof supports of Bonito's ex-
cellent masonry? Therein lies the
romance of the Forthcoming expedi-
ton. The quest has all the mystery

Mountain Chains.

A THEORY of mountain-chain for
of whole continental blocks over a SUBJ
stratum of volcanic glass was proposed
at the American Philosophical Society
by DR.. Reginald A. Daily of Harvard
University.
According to DR.. Daly's theory,
great sections of the earth's crust
slowly heaved and tilted out of a stable
position. gradually migrate in the di-
rection of their slope. This slope may
be very slight. and migration very
slow. even "A few inches a century, yet
it goes on for such long periods that
great changes, even the formation of
huge mountain ranges, may take
place.
Such downstream migration of
continental block. DR.. DAILY said.
could not be imagined over a fixed and
rigid base; but for good reasons we
may assume the earth's crust to be un-
derlain by universal substratum Of
basaltic glass at a temperature of
200 to 500 degrees Centigrade, or
2,200 to $500 Fahrenheit. The rigidity
or stiffness of the substratum is great
because of the hydrostatic pressure
upon it. yet, as in the case of pitch,
the resistance to flow breaks down
with the passage of time, if per-
manent, one-sided pressure or stress
be applied to the substratum ma
terial."
Two things happen to migrating
continent, DR.. DAILY continued. The
edge OF the downstream" side, upon
reaching the limit of its migration and
encountering resistance, wrinkles and
crumples into mountain folds, like the
outer edge of flowing tar or mola Sses.
On the upstream" side the crust is
stretched and finally cracked, allowing
the interior ma gina to come to the sur.
face as great non-volcanic lava flows.

the oldest living trees, then obtaining
from other pueblos of more recent
date timbers which overlap the new
ly-cut trees in time period, then
working ever backward with older
and older specimens until those are
found which correspond, in their
cyclic indications, to those of the
Chaco Canyon pueblos.
"Walpi and Orabi in Arizona, and
Zuni and Acoma, in New Mexico, the
last mentioned being the oldest con-
tinuously occupied pueblo in the
Southwest, have been visited in an
effort to patch together tree sections
which will carry the forest almanac
back to dating distance of the far
more elaborate Chaco Canyon ruins.
"A second line of work will concern
itself with a study of buried stumps
near Flagstaff. Ariz., and other
stumps farther west in recently wash
ed-out valleys. These, too, may fur
nish records of seasonal changes
which will help in fitting together
tree diagrams of time"

IN pointing out why the expedition
this year is especially important,

have to solve this Summer is that of
Canyon is about a half-mile wide OPP
Fposite Pueblo Bonito. and within a
mile of the ruin we found pottery
fragments and charcoal as much as
'21 feet below the present valley sur
face. The character of that valley
fill indicates that u feet have been
built up very slowly. So the task to
which we have set ourselves is to de-
termine just how the 81 feet of de-
post accumulated, and just who the
old people were who occupied that val
ley long before Pueblo Bonito and it's
great engineering projects were start.

yet been determined. 1t may fur
nish another clue to piece out further
the habits, customs and religious
beliefs of these aborigines. AL
though they left :, no written words
nor even any Photograph records that
can be deciphered. they attained a
civilization as interesting as the early
cultures along the Nile and in MeSo-
potamia, yet distinctive from all Old
World peoples.

eagles in captivity. One of our re-
markable finds was the macaw, a
multi-colored parrot. The known
range of this tropical bird does not
extend north of Vera Cruz on the
Gulf coast We found not only rooms
in which they kept these birds, but
traces of the foodstuffs they fed them.
The Bonitians got those living
birds by trading with Mexican Indians,
who probably came north on foot some
1 500 miles and received in exchange
for the birds turquoise ornaments
A beautiful turquoise necklace of
$500 stones. with four large ear pen
dants, which is now displayed in the
National Museum, was found by DR..
Judd in the Bonitian metropolis of In
dian America. 1t is the only complete
specimen of such a necklace known.

we found this necklace last sum

held the beads together were gone,
but each tiny bit was in place, so we
were forced, from lack of a sufficient
ly fine needle, to rethread them on the
strings from a tenor banjo which one
of my assistants, O. G.. Havens of
Joplin, Mo, had with him.. 1t is the
finest ornament of its kind ever
found in the Americas. We believe
the stones came from the vicinity of
the Tiffany mines at Los Cerillos, n.
Mex. They were worked down by rub
bing on sandstone. Then the Boni-
tian craftsmen strung the rough
stones on Sinews, and by rubbing back
and forth on grooved stone they
were rounded beautifully. We know
this because we found fragments that
! were broken off and the stone tools
employed by the craftsmen"

wise, in Spanish chronicles and rec
