which it was placed, and in less than a
minute it was down on the lower ice
cake. Then it was again picked up and
carried alongside the ship, cable was
hooked to it and it was drawn up to
the deck. This had no sooner been
done than both halves of what had
been the dock began to move out from
the barrier The drift ice had already
shifted considerably and there was open
water outside of us, so quickly do things
change down here. A heavy snow Squall
came up, large sticky flakes which
melted as soon as they lit on the deck,
and it was impossible to see the mass
of material piled on the barrier only a
few hundred feet away. But overhead
there was a pale luminous spot where
the sun was trying to break through
to enlighten our gray world. The shore
ines were cast off, the ice anchors drawn
IN by the winches, and, fortunately, we
did not lose one of them.
The two ships, still laShed together,
began to drift out into the bay, and
work was Immediately begun loading
the cargo from the Boiling into the
New York SO that the Boiling may get
back to New Zealand and come down
again for another trip before the bay
begins to freeze. The remains of our
dock drifted out to sea and the last
we saw of them they were far away, a
pile of pieces of the airplane crates lying
on the top of one cake. But we do
not need them.
Then the tickle Antarctic changed its
mood again. Under the southern wind
the sky cleared, the snowfall ended, the
sun is now shining warmly while we
are edging our way back toward the
low part of the barrier in the hope of
landing the Ford airplane there. The
bay ice is at last moving out and it may
be possible for the New York to get
much nearer to the base if the low bar
rier point proves untenable or shows
signs of breaking. But the work has
not stopped and as much is being ac-
complished as though our dock had
stayed with us little longer. The
leader of an expedition down here has
to adapt himself to rapidly changing
conditions, and SO far he has been able
to do so. This gang just refuses to be
licked.

cold, and confessed to friend who
aroused him in the early morning that
he felt like DEATH" He was advised to
stay in bed but insisted on starting on
his tour, although the snow was thick
on the ground and the day was raw
and foggy. He had a cheerful word for
everybody, the paper said, although 1t
must have been an effort for him to
muster up his own spirits"
AT Pelton Lane Robert Smith, a
Superannuated miner of 81, smacked
the prince on the back and said, How
are you, old MANI"
The prince readily replied: I'm all
right; how are you, my boy?" and he
returned the smack.
Gets Details of Wash Day.
A Mrs. Capp at Newfield gravely en-
tered into the details of the weekly
wash day and showed the heir to the
throne various intimate garments she
had been washing and ironing. Another
woman dilated on the virtues of her
pig.
Learning on one street that a Mrs.
Cameron had just given birth to her
eighth baby, the prince said he would
like to see the infant, which instantly
raised his stock 100 per cent with the
women who were standing around.
After hearing, with bluShing pride, the
princes hearty assertion that it was a
bonny baby, the mother said. "Iy you'll
excuse me sir, you look so young and
just like your pictures"
The whole mining district is agog and
everywhere the prince went he was fol-
lowed by crowds.

NEW YORK. Nov. 20-tP,-
Discovery Of the tomb Of Meryet-
Amun. Egyptian queen, who was
buried In regal splendor more than
so centuries ago. Is announced in
bulletin OF the Metropolitan
Museum Of art published today.
The mummy, encased in two
coffsns. the outer OF which was
described as ''once Of a richness
comparable to that OF the outer
coffin OF Tut -Ank-Amen." found
in excavations adjoining the tenn
pie Of DER El Bahri near Thehes
by the Metropolitan expedition
headed by Herbert 4. Winlock.
Queen, Meryet-Amun was the
daughter of Thut-Mose III and the
conSort OF his successor, AmenhOt-
pc III. She Is believed 10 have died
between 1880 and 154O T.. &.
Remarkable Object
Robbers pillaged tbs tomb about
lO49 B. O.. stripping the coftins of
the sheets of gold in which they
were sheathed and taking ether
precious materials used in their
ornamentation The tomb was
partly restored by officials Of the
metropolis.
In his report Mr.. WinlOck said.
''The big coffin cf Meryet- -Afrlsln
Is a remarkable object Not only
is it Of gigantic size, but is a piece
Of Superbly SkiIlfEl joinery. made
OF carefully selected CEDAR plankS
tenoed together and carved inside
and out to 8 uniform thickness.
The carving OF the face has
been studied with the most subtle
knowledge, and accomplished with
a surface as smooth and soft as
the features which 10 portrays.
Eyes Tnlaid with Glass
The eyes and eyebrows are in
laid with glass. the wig and the
torso are carved with deeply incis-
ed cheyrons and scales painted
blue. and the body is sheathed in
feathers lightly engraved in the
wood.
But the glass or the eyebrows
and lids is cheap and IS carelessly
stuck in the place OF some more
valuable material. The inciSiora In
the decoration OF the wig and tor
so and in the inscription are part
ly filled with a cement which still
retains the casts of the inlays.
And finally, over the body there
are rows Of little nail holes which
show that, except perhaps for the
face. the whole coffin was once
sheathed in sheets OF gold, both in
side and out.
Obviously this coffin YVES once

OF the outer coffin or Tut-Ank-

"The inner coffin, while much
smaller had been almost as lavish

The tomb was found after six
weeks digging which was begun
when members of the expedition
investigated a pile OF stone chips

fin was found was deep III the

HOOVER PLAN
FOR BUREAUS
CUT OPENS
First Step To Deal
With War Vets
Agencies
BY JAMES L. WEST.
Associated Press Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20-P-
President Hoover is ready to tran
slate into action ten years talk
about recognizing the federal gov
ernment.
AS a first step he has approved
plan to consolidate all agencies
dealing with war veterans and their
dependents and will ask the sane
ton OF congress at the opening Of
the regular session.
Chief among these agencies are
the Veterans Bureau, now func-
tioning as an independent es-
tablishment. the pension office.
administered by the interior de-
partment, the National Home for
disabled volunteers, another sep
arate establishment and the hos
pitalizatiOn division OF the public
health service.
Many Consultations
The consolidation Is expected TO
bring about a saving Of several
millions of dollars in administra-
ton and disqualification cost alone
and to simplify the work OF deal
ing with the veterans and their
dependents.
There would be created a new
single agency under a director re-
porting directly TO the President
through his administrative assist
ant. IL would handle more than
three-quarters OF a billion dollars
annually. embracing the $500. .00O,-
600 spent by the veterans bureau.
some $3.50. 100000 by the pension
office and around S20000,000 by the
other divisions.
Under the direction OF the Pre-
sident a comprehensive survey now
Is being made for consolidating
within the justice department most
Of the agencies dealing with pro-
hibition enforcement and q recon-
mendation along that line also will
be made to congress in the Presid-
ent's message.
Much Money Saved
This would bring about a tran
Sfer of the prohibition bureau from
the Treasury TO the Justice depart
ment and the concentration IN
that department OF other enforce
ment work. The whole work after
the transfer would be under the
single direction OF q. Aaron Young
quist. assistant attorney general.
Consolidation Of other agencies
dealing with the same or kindred
subjects will be taken TN scon with
a view to recommendations to con-
gresS for the necessary legislation.
The purpose is to avoid duplica-
ton and TO save time. for those
who have business with the gov
ernment.
