rain" of today, indicating the existence
of a milder climate in the north at
the time the mantle was laid away.
Such a mild climate Is known from
geological evidences to have followed
shortly after the disappearance Of the
last patches of glacial ice in the south
of Sweden, at about the time when
the new Stone Age was giving way to
the Age of Bronze in that country.
1t was followed by a period of Sc.
verer climate, ushering In the Iron
Age. This mild climate pollen thus
determines the former owner OF the
mantle, who so carefully folded 1t up
and hid it under three stones in a
ditch. as a man of the Early Bronze
Age. -
The careful workmanship of the
weaver. who made the cloth out OF a
mixture of fine wool and the hair of

and the possible romantic history Of
the garment, which has number of
dagger holes. jabbed through 1t, is
limited at by Sune. Lundquist. Mr..
Lundquist states also that the toga
OF the Romans was quite similar In
shape to these elliptical Bronze Age
nlantles, though differing in size and
manner of wearing. A shorter Roman
cloak, the .'trabea," worn largely by
priests and soldiers, was even more
nearly similar.

A WOODEN mantle, worn in Sweden
when the early Pharaohs still reigned
in Egypt, has had its age approx
mately determined by a curious com.
bination Of botanical and geological
knowledge, through the researches Of
DR.. Lennart Won Post of the Museum
OF National Antiquities in Stockholm.
The garment was found buried at a
depth Of several feet in a peat bed in
the district of Vastergotland, carefully
folded up and weighted down with
three stones. but it'll nothing about
1t to indicate how it got there.
It's similarity to Bronze Age gar.
ments from Denmark and elsewhere
suggested its antiquity. The fact that
1t had evidently not been buried, but
I'D lain in it's hiding place while the
moss grew over 1t to form about 5
feet of peat. was further evidence of
great age. The acid water of the bog
had preserved it from decay during
the centuries.
DR.. Won Post found the key to its
age in the pollen grains that were
thick in muddy particles clinging to the
fabric. Most important among the
species represented were oak, linden
and elm, with pine, birch and alder.
and hazelnut as the principal shrub.
Exact counts showed that the proper
ton of the pollen from the oak.linden-
elm forest was larger than 1t would
be in Swedish Springtime pollen

Il And many of Americas most
important citizens, in aviation
and out. are contributing freely of
their time and effort in order to
assist the association in the accom-.

just five years ago in Detroit, Mich,
by a representative group of patriotic
supporters Of aviation, the association
has grown until it now has more
than 80 local chapters scattered the
length and breadth of the country,
In addition to a general membership
throughout the land.
The purpose of the association, as
stated in its charter, is to foster, Ell.

agement to all aeronautic interests
to encourage the establishment of
suitable and uniform laws-to collect,
edit and disseminate general knowl-
edge of aeronautics-and cooperate
with governmental and civilian in
situations in the furtherance of it's
aims and do all and everything for
the accomplishment of it's purposes.
Serve Without Pay.
All the officers. governors and COM
mittee members of the association
serve without pay. and in this list
may be found many of the most i'm.
portant men, not only in American
aviation, but in National, State and
municipal affairs.

Uninterrupted prosperity is a mat

one of us. Strong economic factors
are already at work changing the
curve Of prosperity, with it's sharp
peaks and depressions representing, re-
spectively, boom times and panics. into
steadily mounting line which signi-
fies greater blessings Of life in every
home But still another and even
more fundamental factor must be
added-the elimination of disease and
every day sickness by more intensive
application Of the most advanced con-
cepts of modern science in the solu-
ton of the problems of better health.
Economic losses from sickness mount
annually into billions of dollars. With
the elimination of these losses there
will be added to our national produc-
tive capacity a steady and constantly
larger increment. and these losses can
be eliminated by chemo-medical re-
search. conducted by the Government
and supported by all the people.
For the support Of industrial re-
search capital Is readily available, for

research will be equally remunerative.
but the distribution of such increased
earnings will not be confined to any
one corporation. 1t will accrue to
every citizen. 1t is logical, therefore,
that these same citizens bear the
financial support of such research.
And ii is to he hoped that when once
the matter is thoroughly understood
they will be as eager for such research
in their behalf as the capitalist is to-
day. Such universally distributed sup
port can be given through appropri-
alton by the Congress Of the revenues

Senator Ransdell Of Louisiana in

a bill along these lines. His bill en-
braces four features:
Concentration of all public health ac-

facilities as to personnel, laboratories
and equipment for intensive research

No new bureau or commission Is

ference between European and Ameri
can transmission. But in that period
where government control of wave
lengths was ineffective in the United
States the piratical seizure by some
few American broadcasting stations OF
channels set aside by agreement for
Canadian use caused interference and
made necessary the early adoption Of

equitable broadcasting agreements are
imperative.

Maloney's Manager Is
Cited BY Commissioners
To Explain Ticket Sales

NEW YORK, Feb. II R.-Dan Car
roll, manager of Jimmy Maloney, to-
day was summoned to appear before
the state athletic commission tomor-
row to tell what he knows of reported
speculation in tickets for Maloney's
bout with Jack Delaney.
The demand for Carroll's presence
followed upon charges that tickets
from an allotment to the Boston heavy
weights pilot had been sold for three
times their face value.
Madison Square garden officials and
Pete Reilly, manager of Delaney, also
were summoned, although Chairman
James A. Farley, of the commission,
said no complaint had been made
against Reilly.
Boxing followers saw in the inves-
tigation possible disarrangement OF
Maloneys fight plans Should the
Boston heavyweight's pilot be sus-
pended, Maloney would be without Car
rolls services in the corner tomorrow
night.
Carroll Indignantly denied any con-
nection with a ticket scandal, asserting
that if for no other reason, he would
be dissuaded from such course by
the fact that "Maloney will be fight
ing here many times, and l could not
afford to get in jam with the boxing
commission"

The curtain falls on high school
basketball tonight when The Bisbee
and Douglas school teams meet in
the final games of the season, the
first game starting promptly at 1880
and the main evens getting lnder
way about 8 p. M
Fans of the city are speculating on
the result, as both teams are in the
pink of condition and always play
in the final games.
Coach Fuzzy Warren has been hav-
ing a hard time keeping his team in
tact and is worried about the best
possible scoring combination. His
first team selection may vary tonight
and it is highly possible that Betty
will be working at forward in either
Pratt's or Seeley's place. If Pratt
and Seeley show their class, Causey
may be used at center to give Denno

ward the close of a game. With
close score any slowing down may
