UNKNOWN FOSSILS
 FOUNDRY GRANGER
Expedition Back From Mongolia
 Reports Rare Success

Peiping, China, Oct. ' (UP)- Discovery of fossils of 20 animals Unknown to science and believed to oe some 3o,000,O0o years old was reported by Prof. Walter Granger, chief paleontologist of the Roy Chapman Andrews expedition, who ireturned here from Mongolia today.
 The expedition has irrefutably demonstrated the theory that life had it's origin in Central Asia, Prof. Granger said. The expedition was very successful in obtaining fossils of hundred extinct species, includ- ing rNnoceroses. elephants and deer.
 Huge fossil deposits were left un- touched when blizzards forced the expedition to discontinue it's work for the winter. It is hoped to re- sume the work next spring.
 Professor Granger is attached to the American Museum of Natural History.

SLAVE TO APPETITE

Anaheim, Cal.-A burglar should have enough will power to walk away from food and drink when he is robbing a house. That's what Lauro Ahumado, 21, should have, anyhow. He was robbing the home of Jess Michaeli recently and after he made his haul noticed some per fume, which he drank. This he fol- lowed with some rubbing alcohol and topped it all off with marsh mallows. He contracted such a severe stomachache that he was easily caught when Michaeli re- turned home.

HOLDS ISLAND NOT READY
FOR ITS INDEPENDENCE
Former Acting Governor General
of Philippines Gives Views
In Radio Talk.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April l6.-Speaking on
the DUTY of the United States With
Regard to Philippine Independence, /"
over the Columbia broadcasting system
last night, Newton w. Gilbert, former
acting governor general of the Philip
pines, declared that the islands are
not yet prepared for independence.
THE masses of the Filipino people are
untutored and have little knowledge of
world or government affairs" Mr.. Gill
bert said. There Is q small minority
who are educated and a smaller minor
ity still who know something of govern
ment who are anxious to be In control
of the situation.
IF we should scuttle the islands, as
Is proposed, we will leave a great mass
OF people at the mercy of the few
politicians whom, / am bound to say,
are chiefly interested In their own
personal welfare and success"
The Philippines also are economically
unprepared for independence" said
pointing out that the mt of
money which can be raised through
taxation has reached its limit.
Until the islands are so developed
that there is a larger amount of prop
erty to support the tax, 1t cannot be
increased" he added.
An independent government in the
islands, he asserted, would be unable to
assume number of functions of gov
eminent which they do not now
finance.
THE right solution OF the Filipino
question" he said, lis to provide def
nitely for long term of years which
shall precede independence. A term OF
years long enough so that capital from
America and Europe would go into the
Philippine Islands to develop their
manifold natural resources"
Mr.. Gilbert spent IL years in the
Philippines, first as judge of the
court of first instance, later as vice
governor general and then as acting
governor general.

EDITOR OF D. A. R. MAGAZINE
FINDS STAMP OF 1916 VINTAGE
Miss Lincoln Makes Discovery
While Looking Over Old
Family Letters.
PhiIateIists Say provisional
Issue by PostmasterS" Is
Worth $4,000.

Miss Natalie Sumner Lincoln, editor
of the ID. A. r. Magazine and well
known Washington writer of detective
stories, never got the thrill out of weav-
ing a mystery plot that she did the
other day in discovering among some
old family letters rare stamp, said by
philatelistS to be worth 5000 or more.
The stamp, one of the provisional
issues by postmaSters" in 1845, of which
there are very few known to be in ex-
iStence, has been in the Lincoln family
for IS years. For the last nine years,
its existence and value unknown to Miss
Lincoln, 1t has reposed in a wicker bas-
ket in her work shop" as she sought
new plots for her yearly mystery novels.
Finds Stamp on Letter.
Miss Lincoln was rummaging through
the basket the other day looking over
some family letters that she had kept
aside after the death of her mother
One envelope. particularly, held her at
tention, owing to the peculiar stamp it
bore 1t was a white, oblong sticker
on which was printed in black letters
at the top, James M. Buchanan and
beneath 1t, 10 cents.
The stamp appeared to be uncancel-
ed but just at its left in red letters the
postmaster had stamped paid"
At the Post Office Department the
stamp was identified as one of the pro
viSional issues by poStmaSterS," this par
ticular stamp having been issued by the
Baltimore Post Office. Owing to its
wonderful preservation high appraisal
has been placed upon it. Even the
envelope to which it is attached is I'M
faded.
The letter In question was addressed
to Miss LincOln's father, DR.. Nathan
Smith Lincoln, distinguished officer
of the Civil War and for many years
q prominent physician in Washington,
who died in 1898. DR.. Lincoln at the
time, in 1S4S was senior at Dartmouth

College. The letter was from his uncle,
DIR. Nathan Ryno Smith of Baltimore, a
famous surgeon of his day, sending his
regrets that he could not attend the
graduation exercises at Dartmouth.
Mother Preserved Letters.
Miss Lincoln's mother, the late Mrs.
Jeanne Gould Lincoln, who was a popu-
lar novelist. had carefully preserved
most OF the early family letters. AS
the years passed the value of this rare
old stamp increased with them.
The issue is peculiar in that, so far
as known, only few postmasters issued
such stamps in that year. Those
known to be in existence are issues of
the Baltimore, Alexandria, Va; Annap-
oils, Md, and New York post offices
and one by little post office in New
Hampshire.
Philatelists who have seen the stamp
are enthusiastic over its fine state of
preservation.
Miss Lincoln, a native of Washington
has been active in Daughters of the
American Revolution circles for a num-
Der of years and for the last 10 years
has edited the official magazine of the
national society. Her brother, G. Gould
Lincoln, is the political writer of The
Evening Star Miss Lincoln resides at
3104 Hawthorne street.
