The enunciation of q "plan for CO.
operative study of the sciences Of man
in the Southwest" by Director Hewett
Of the Archaeological Institute School Of
American Research at Santa Fe Is a
matter Of the most profound impor-
lance. It calls for combination Of SCI
entif1c agencies in line with progressive
action. 1t embraces surveys, eXcava-
tions, museums, collections, chronological
and historical studies, instruction and
publication.
It proposes the completion of exca-
Vations already begun at Chettro Ketl,
Gran Quivera, JemeZ and the Pajartto
Plateau; a study of the ethnogeography
Of the Rio Grande Valley by John P.
Harrington and the completion Of
studies Of remaining dialects and on
Indian arts and ceremonies. Clearly
this is q far-flung program, and its
present necessity seems to be dictated
by the approach of elements that may
cause the disappearance Of irrecover-
able American antiquity.
PueblOs Cliff DwelIers.
The founder of the science Of South
western archaeology and ethnology Is
DR.. w. H. Holmes of the Smithsonian
Institution. It was he who wiped out
the myths of the vanished races" by
proving that the cliff jewellers were Pu-
eblo Indians. He tore away the veil of
mystery that had shrouded the early
inhabitants of our Southwest. Perhaps
1t was the desire of sensation mongers
to create for an eager public q distant
past OF Occidental glamour.
AS q matter of fact the Pueblo In
dams OF today are the survivors of
earlier Indians, who had neither cities,
nor tombStones, nor sculptured sac
copha8l. The work of Holmes was sup
plemented by that of Bandelier, Powell,
LumInis and Fewkes. The latter began
his studies with the Hops. r. w. Hodge
took over the ethnohistorical field, Mat
thews studied the Navajos and Hrd-
licka settled the matter of physical an
1nropology Of the Pueblo plateau.
Wide Field Of Study.
It was the ubiquitous "pot-hunter''
who finally drove science into the field.
a Few more decades Of the depreda-
tons OF the pot-hunter would have
ruined the archaeological history Of our
Southwest. The Lacey act, O law to
preserve American antiquities. followed
the entrance into the Southwest of
the scientific work Of the Smithsonian
Institution, the Archaeological Institute
Of America and the Universities Of
New Mexico, Utah and Arizona.
The studies Of archaeology and his
tory have widened to those also Of
anthropo-geography. social anthropol-
ogy, ethno-psyc hology, geology and
botany. The social and racial types Of
the Pueblos offer q wide field for the
study Of the evolution Of the human

much longer he may care to
remain in Office or in what manner
future historians refer to those years,
he will occupy unique place IN the
financial history of the United States.
For Mr.. Mellon, with the exception Of
Secretary Gallatin, who held Office
more than 100 years ago, has filled the
exacting and important post as head OF
the Treasury Department for q longer
period than any other man. He has
served under three Presidents In sue
cession, which no other Secretary has
done, but above all it has been under
his guidance and direction that this
country has sailed smoothly through
the years of postwar deflation and re-
construction which might have been
disastrous If the pilot in charge Of the
financial affairs of the Nation has been
less fitted for his task
In the nine years since he took the
oath of Office and laid aside his bust
ness cares at the request of President
Harding, Mr.. Mellon has brought about
the greatest reduction in the public
debt that any nation ever has wit
messed. He has been a leading figure
in the five major decreases In the tax
burden under which the United States
was laboring after the Great War and
to him is given much of the credit for
the negotiation of the settlements with
our foreign war debtors.
Debt Reduced ~ Billions.
In addition to these tasks, he has
administered a department which, be-
cause of legislative changes of the last
few years, has become more and more
complex and has brought under the
Secretary's eye many widely varying
AknlS
lives of millions of persons, from the
collection of taxes to the enforcement
of prohibition.
When Mr.. Mellon took over the ONCE
of Secretary of the Treasury In March,
1921, the. public debt of the United
States was about $4,000, 100000, and
when figures were compiled for that
debt at the end of February of this
year it had been reduced to about $16,-
500 900 000-a cut of about $500, 000,-
900 effected in less than nine years,
or at an average rate of more than
$500 900 900 for each 12-month period.
That reduction in the debt has meant
a saving in interest charges to the
American people of nearly $500, 600, 900
year, an item profoundly affecting
the taxes which have been imposed,
for the public debt must be paid and
the interest upon 1t must be met and
the Government mas no way III WHICH
to do these things without recourse to
taxes.
Tax Reductions Effected.
The five important tax reduction
measures which have been passed by
Congress since 1921 have taken of the
shoulders of citizens about $4,000, GOO, 900
or more than $5,000,000 day. The act
of 1921 brought about decrease OF
about $663, 900 900; the act of 1924
Topped of an additional $S19, 900, 900;
the law of 1926 cut the burden to the
further extent of 1922, 600; the act
Of 1928 made another reduction OF about
1929, 900 900, and that Of last year will
bring about an additional decrease of
$3.50, 000, 900.
Mr.. Mellon would not wish to take
all the credit for those slashing cuts.

The best conditions for soaring are
found around cliffs and hills which lie
at right angles to the prevailing wind.
In high wind velocitieS it is possible to
maintain soaring flight on the wind
ward SIDE of almost any obstruction,
but in lower velocities it is necessary
to have more ideal conditions. A wind
passing over line of hills viii permit
soaring up and down their entire
length. In good velocities the glider
can soar several hundred feet above
the crest.
The efficiency of the glider depends
very largely upon its speed and gliding
angle. To remain aloft the glider must
be In an ascending current, which Is
carrying it up at at least the same
rate as it is losing altitude in its glide.
If its gliding angle is is to /, then
