ancient Maya cities, 1t was announced
today by the Carnegie Institution OF

Anyways Corporation
The expedition will be begun i'm
mediately Upon Col. Lindbergh's return
from his present 8,000-mile trip over
the Pan American lines. DR.. Oliver

knows this region thoroughly and will
be able to recognize such cities as are
already known and to chart the course
OF the plane into uneXplored territory
by using established cities as bearings.
Ruined Cities Sought.
The purpose of the flight Is to locate
ruined cities which are said to exist in
the UNEMPLOYED regions and to photo
graph them and map their location by
compass bearings in such way as to
allow land parties to reach them in a
fraction of the time that would be
consumed in blind search.
DR.. John G. Merriman, president OF
the Carnegie Institution, said that 1t is
desired to determine how much of the
plan and extent of an ancient Maya
city can be made out from the air. 1t
is hoped, he declared, that there may
be discovered and traced certain great
highways through the jungle which
were used by the Mayas for intercity
communication.
DIR. Miriam Enthusiastic.
DR.. Miriam was enthusiastic today
about the possibilities of air exploration
at the Central American jungles which
supported a fiourishing civilization be-
fore the birth of Christ. He said that
it would be possible to reach the city
of Uaxactun, long a source of most Of
our information on Magyar culture. in
20 minutes by airplane while the jour
ney by muleback would consume 10
days.
ITO get over the great bush country
of that region has always been a ter

WOMAN IlSUR ANCE DELEGATE
FINDS MANY OF SEX IN BIG PAY
Tremendous incomes Won
by Own Efforts, Says
Miss Jones.
Business, Stage and Profess
sion Represented by Those
Who Triumph.
BY GRETCHEN SMITH.

Coming In touch with women who
possess tremendous incomes and who
have created for themselves enviable po-
sitionS In professional and business
fields Is an everyday occurrence for Miss
Sara Frances Jones, special agent Of
the Equitable Life Insurance Co. of New
York in Chicago. who is now in Wash
ington attending the national conven-
ton Of underwriters, being held at the
Mayfiower Hotel.
Many cases are cited by Miss Jones
who claims that no one sees more init
mately or realizes more fully the amaZ-
ing strides being made by women of the
present day in fields of financial sue
cess.
Woman Physicians Rise.
Among those on my books" Miss
Jones said, is woman physician OF
Chicago, who, when she started prac-
ticing in that city 10 years ago, did not
have $50 to her name after paying her
first months rent. She is now earning
an income of not less than SIC, 900 a
year, owns her home in Chicago and a
beautiful estate in California"
Among my first clients" continued
Miss Jones, was Judge Mary NJ
Bartelme of the Chicago Juvenile Court
OF course, every one knows that the
Judges make SIS 900 year, and Judge
Bartelme is the only woman judge in
Chicago The first policy I wrote for
Miss Bartelme has matured and she told
me that the money enabled her to buy
her first home. Today. most of her
policies are retiI ement annuities. which
will give her definite income at a given
age for the rest of her life"
To diSprove the theory that woman
is disqualified by virtue of her sex from
forging ahead in the business world
alone and unaided and that 1t Is diff
cult for her real ability to be recognized,
Miss Jones cites the case of Chicago
woman, who is now the owner Of one
of that city's largest department stores
and carries $1,000 900 insurance. COW
ering largely her business interests.
Started as Clerk.
This woman started out at Is years
of age as q clerk in the department
store which she now owns" said Miss
Jones. Through efficiency and perSe-
verance, she went from one department
to another, saving her pennies as she
went, until finally she became manager
of the store and then finally its owner.
Another case can cite Is woman
who is in charge of the woman's de-
partment in a large Chicago bank. She
started as q stenographer, worked up to
an executive position and today is the
only woman who sits in on executive
meetings of that bank and is one of its
representatives of the bankers conven-
ton now being held In San Francisco

RANDLE HIGHLANDERS
PROTEST BUS PROPOSAL

The meeting of the Randle High
lands Citizens Association in the Orr
School last night was given over to
speeches protesting the proposal of the
Public Utilities Commission to unity
the Randle Highlands and the Hill
crest bus lines, with the result that
nomination of officers scheduled to be
held last night was deferred until the
october meeting of the association.
Both the nominations and election are
to be held then.
Reports on hearing before the COM
mission this month on the proposed
bus unification were made at the meet
ing. The association members were
emphatic in expressing the view that
the change, as proposed, would result
IN much worse bus service, taking longer
to travel to different parts of the city
than under the present system. Will
liam @. Gath, president of the aSsocia-
ton presided at the meeting.

AFRICAN NATIONS
FARLEY DISRUPTED
Trade Reconciliation Be-
tween Rhodesia and South
Africa Breaks Down.
By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily
NeE$ Crpyright, 1929.

BY Gable to The Star and Chicago Daily
NeS% cspyright, 1929.
JOHANNESBURG, September 90
The johannesburg conference, which
lasted a full week and aimed at the
reconciliation Of the interests of South
Africa and Rhodesia, has ended in
complete failure, and there is a definite
break between these countries Of the
British Empire. The existing trade
agreements will terminate December 81,
when both countries plan to erect stiff
tariff walls against each other.
In the meantime, the South African
government Is taking steps to prevent
the dumping of Rhodesian tobacco In
the union, and its precautions are not
calculated to improve the relations be-
tween the two countries. The gulf has
been widening since the failure to Sc
cure a union of the two countries in
1922. and particularly since the Ma
tionalists came into power in 1924.
Rhodesia is solidly British, while
South Africa has done its utmost in the
last five years to draw away from
British influence. The adoption of a
national flag for South Africa, instead
of the Union Jack, meant definitely
that RhodeSia never would enter the
union, and when South Africa made q
treaty with Germany, Rhodesia decided
that her relations would have to be
put on different basis.
The cabinet ministers of both coun-
tries met at Pretoria and 25-year- old
convention was thrown into the waste
basket. An official communique states
ITO the very great regret of both
governments. the customs conference
has broken down, as it was found i'm
possible to reconcile the conflicting in
tprpSfS nf the tW0 countries
The decision means virtually that
South Africa will cease to be a carrier
for Rhodesian goods, which will now
be imported through Lobito Bay, in
stead of Cape Town and Durham. Gus
tomshouses will be built along the
Limpopo River. In South Africa the
principal effect Is to intensity the
Afrikander feeling against the English
speaking section of the population.

Despite the fact that this woman Is in
the banking business and has the OPP
portunity to invest in stocks and bonds
she has provided for her future through
the medium of retirement annuities
which will provide for her at the age
she wishes to retire from business.
lone of the most interesting classes
of clients who come to me is from the
stage" continued Miss Jones.

the famous monolgist, was in town ano
that she would like to see me aoou!
insurance. / waited in my office until
quite late that afternoon. when Miss
Draper came in, stating she was In a
great hurry as she had to make train
for New York that night. She told me
she was thinking of adopting child
and wanted to give 1t the proper IN
surance. AS she was leaving the city
that night. she did not have time for
the physical examination which she said
she would take in New York. But she
signed the policy and gave me check
before leaving my office.
I'm that way" laughed Miss Jones,
IT wrote a policy for Miss Draper, who
had had no intention of being insured
when she came into my Office. She
now carries tremendous insurance and
wouldn't wish to estimate her income
today. But this again is merely the
case of a woman of large income who
uses insurance in her financial plan"
Miss Jones was the only woman who
took the life insurance trust course
that was inaugurated by the trust COM
panies of Chicago and the Chicago Life
Underwriters Association. Since then
she has been mapping out trust pro-
grams for people of means. She started
in the life insurance business as SUBJ
stitute Stenographer at Is years Of age
in the Equitable home office in New
York. Later she went to Chicago as
manager of the womans department
building up an agency in that city.
