Neanderthal Mans
Home Town Fixed
In Mayors Debate
Was a Dusseldorfian Hail.
ing From Cologne When
Argument Ended.
By the Associated Press.

by Cne Associated FTeSS.
DUSSELDORF, Germany - The
chief burgomasters of the two leading
cities in the Rhineland, Dusseldorf and
Cologne, Rave solved the problem as to
where the aboriginal neanderthal man
had his abode. He was Dusseldorfian
but hailed from Cologne.
Dusseldorf and Cologne are bitter
rivals for supremacy in the Rhineland
They are constantly watching each
other in the hope of going the COM
petitor one better.
When the League of German Munich
palities met for its annual convention,
Chief Burgonlaster Lehr of Dusseldorf,
ia an pafter-dinner speech, enumerated
all the claims to fame of his city, and
said, as 3 climax, that where Duessel-
dorf now stands was once the habi-
tation of the prehistoric neanderthal
man.
Chief Burgomaster Adenauer of Co
logne followed. Politely he admitted the
possible truth of his colleagues conten-
tion, but added, with a view to his
home towns reputation, "Of course the
Neanderthal chap was a man from
Cologne who got lost in the woods and
settled down in Dusseldorf"
Everybody laughed at the sally and
looked to Mayor Lehr. After few mo-
ments of fast and furious thinking
Lehr pulled himself out of the affair
by saying, Come to think of 1t. DR..
Adenauer of Cologne is right. An ex-
animation of the Neanderthal mans
skeleton shows that nobody but a ma
tive of Cologne could have had such a
big mouth"

The expedition definitely established
the antiquity of man in Africa by the
discovery of human beings who illustrate
primitive mans first intelligent ADJUST
mentS to his environment.
There has been no glacial change in
the desert since the age of man began,
which proves the hypothesis of mans
tranquil existence there.
I have returned here to confer With
DR.. Dart, discoverer of the famous
Taungs Skull-Australopit the
proposed expedition of greater proper
tionS, which will include number OF
famous experts and which will work
out the details of the fundamental
knowledge gained by the Cameron
Cadle expedition

of Texas, geologist of the present ex-
pedition, will proceed north to Victoria
Falls TO collect museum specimens.
After comforting with DR.. Dart 1 Will
return to America to organize the new

GILBERT is ASSURED
OF LONDON SUPPORT
Obtains Churchill Promise of 0. K.
on Early Reparations Farley.
Goes to Paris.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

BY Cable to The. Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copyright, 1928.
LONDON, October 18.-S. Parker
Gilbert, American agent general for
reparationS, after spending few days
with Winston Churchill, chancellor of
the exchequer, left today for Paris to
discuss the question of reparations with
Premier Poincare.
The American reparations agent had
a very difficult task in London. and it
took a good deal of diplomacy to induce
MIR. Churchill to promise that Great
Britain will not obstruct the coming
conference for alteration of the Dawes
plan.
When, in September, the French sug-
gested at Geneva that the whole ques-
ton of reparations should be discussed
again, they found Mr.. Gilbert most
anxious to have the Dawes plan revised
He, however, urged that the conference
should take place at the earliest pos
sible moment, namely, between Novem-
ber 10 and next March Mr.. Gilbert's
reason is that after March the British
will be busy with the general elections
and will not be able to find time to dis
cusS until next Fall the question of a
substantial reduction Of the reparations

Three-Hour Session Today
Fails to Produce Decision
by Commission.
NEW REJECTION BASIS
SUBMITTED BY BRIDE
Would Turn Down Capital Traction
Request Through Compel
ing Company.

Washington car riders must wait
until Monday at least to learn whether
they will have to pay 1o-cent fare.
The Public Utilities Commission, after
three-hour discussion of the car-fare
case again today, adjourned at o'clock
in apparent deadlock and deferred It's
decision until the next regular meeting,
which is scheduled Monday.
Considerable progress was reported to
have been made, however, toward reach
ing verdict. which undoubtedly will
come at the Monday meeting.
Bride Outlines Plan.
Corporation Counsel William w. Bride,
the commissions general counsel, spent
more than an hour and a half with the
commission while the fare question was
debated. He is said to have pointed
the legal way by which the Capital
Traction Co.'S petition might be turned
down.
This is to be given serious consider
alton by the members of the commits
sion before the next meeting.
Brides suggestion, it is understood. is
first to deny higher fare to the Wash
ington Railway & Electric Co., which
did not ask for it, but was made a
party to the case when the Capital
Traction Co. announced it would not
accept an increase unless the competing
company Is similarly treated.
Then the commission would be in the
position of telling the Capital Traction
Co., that it would be idle to grant its
application if it does not propose to
accept the higher fare.
Col. Ladue went into the executive
meeting of the commission for consider
alton of the street car fare case today
determined to make his last stand
against granting the Capital Traction
Co.'S application. 1t is known that Col.
Ladue has vigorously opposed an in
CREASE ever since the hearings started
on the compaIiy's petition about a.
month ago.
Others Views Differ.
There is little doubt at the District
Building as to how the two civilian
members of the commission feel toward
the application. John W. ChildreSS
the commission is legally bound to
grant the increase if the company is
not earning fair return on its valua-
ton. Col Harrison Brand, jr., the
third member, however has been more
cautious about indicating his position,
but it has been reported that after a
serious study of the record in the case
he has been unable up to this time
to find legal ground on which to
turn down the application.
Col Brands reluctance to give pub
lie expression of his attitude, it is be-
lieved, is due mainly to the fact that
he is serving under a recess appoint
ment that will have to be passed upon
by the Senate when Congress convenes
IN December. A number of Senators
already have registered their objec-
ton with the commission to higher
street car fares in Washington.

Weather Along Coasts of Ireland

Maintained Constantly by Brit

Wife for Gypsy Moth.

By the Associated Press
England and Ireland were
anxiouSly scanning the western
sky today for the tiny Gypsy Moth
de Haviland plane in which Lieut..
Comdr. H. C. Macdonald hoped
off at 1881 am Eastern standard
time yesterday from Harbor
Grace, Newfoundland.
With favorable conditions, it
had been hoped that the daring
young flyer would strike the coast
of Ireland in about 20 hours. At
12:l5 o'clock Eastern standard
time, Is hours after his take-off,
no word had been received of his
sighting.
Visibility along the Irish coast was
generally poor. and there was the pos
sibility that he had continued on to
Croydon, near London, about 400 miles
east of the south Irish coast.
Weather Conditions Improve.
Weather conditions were none too
good along the Irish and English coasts.
but as the afternoon wore on improved
somewhat.
No reports of MacDonald's sighting
MAD been received from any ships in
the neighborhood of the great circle
course over which he was flying.
1t was estimated that the extra gaso-
line carried in MacDonald's 26-foot
machine could keep him in the air for
at least ~ hours, or until about noon
today Eastern standard time. This
margin would vary, however. depending
Upon whether he had favoring wind
and weather.
There was also some difference of
opinion as to the length of time he
could stay in the air. London dis
patches stated that 35 hours was the
maximum, while dispatches from st.
Johns quoted Macdonald himself as

DR.. E. S. Shumaker's Plea for New
Trial on Contempt Charge
Abandoned.

INDIANAPOLIS, October 1s.-Dr. e.

diana Anti-Saloon League, today aban-
doned his efforts to escape the 60-day
sentence on the State penal farm i'm
posed on him for contempt of the In
diana Supreme Court.
Ethan A. Miles and James Bingham,
attorneys for DR.. Shumaker. presented
to the Supreme Court a withdrawal OF
their motion for new trial on the mo-
ton for rehearing of the case. The
Supreme Court granted the withdrawal.
thus sweeping away all legal technicali-
ties and paving the way for the irnmedi-
ate issuance of commitment papers
which would authorize DR.. Shumaker
to begin serving his sentence immedi-
ately.
The Anti-Saloon League superintend-
ent awaited in his Office the arrival Of
the sheriff with the commitment papers.
In addition to the penal farm sentence
DR.. Shumaker was fined $3.50 on the
contempt charge. The contmpt case
was brought by Arthur Gilliom, attor-
ney general of Indiana, and was based
on statements in the annual report of
the Anti-Saloon League charging that
certain justices of the Supreme Court
were prejudiced in their decisions ON
liquor cases.
