Bible Great Aid

Excavations carried on by Father
j. O'Rourke. rector OF the Pontifi-
cial Biblical Institute Of Rome,
prove that the ruins 60 back to the
third millennium before Christ, that
the cities were destroyed about
twenty centuries before Christ. and
that they had an appreciably long
existence, something like a thousand
years.
Before beginning his excavations,
Father Mallon had TO prove to his
own satisfaction that Sodom and
Gomorrah existed on the north side
Of the Dead Sea and not on the
south side. as a number Or archaeol-
ogists maintained. With the help Of
another Jesuit. Father Power, he
was able to prove this from the
Bible itself. References to Lots
choosing Sodom as his residence and
mentioning nearby place names
became Father Mallon's authority.

Excavations north OF the Dead Sea

ton and was changed into q pillar
of salt.
Sodom and Gomorrah were two OF
a group OF five towns called "cities
Of the plains" The others were
Admah, Zebolim and Zoar. Father
Mallon believes he has found them
all in the region OF eastern Ghor,
in Transjordania, a few miles from
the Dead Sea.
Much Jewelry
Excavations were begun last Nov
ember on q plain between the Wady
Gharbeh and the Wady Djarafa
Twenty workmen were distributed
into two camps, one directed BY
Father Mallon. the other by NJ. Neu-
Vile. counsellor Of the French con-
sulat@.
At a depth OF about eight feet
great stretches Of city were I'M
earthed. Houses were found more OF
less intact. Some Of the homes con-
tanned a large assortment OF house
hold implements and instruments q
bone. stone and metal.
The extent Of feminine vanity III
the twin wicked cities is indicated
by the quantity OF jewelry uncoV-
cred. Dozens Of beautiful ceramics
vases and challiceS also came tc
light.
Confirmation or the terrible des-
truction inflicted on the cities Is
lent by the discovery Of enormous
quantities Of ashes among the ruins
There is nothing SO moving,
Father Father Mallon reported, "a'

Of a civilization 50 brilliant and yet
SO terribly destroyed. In the holy
land there are no other ruins better
preserved than those Of Sodom anc
Gomorrah.'

Chevrolet Sets High Mark
in Merchandising in
recent Weeks.

81 1tW6S Sp6Ctut
DETROIT, April 9. Unusual
progress has been made in the last
lew weeks IN liquidating used car
stocks in all parts OF the country,
according to reports reaching the
manufacturing plants in Detroit.
Commitments Tor new cars are be-
ing received IN larger NUMBERS by
makers and 1t can pc deanlteIy SAID
tnat production Is increasing. Al
though TINS gam in output mas not
reached any great proportions, there
undoubtedly Will commune to be a
gradual gam.
Stocks Of new cars throughout the
country are unusually light and
there does not seem TO be any dis
position on the part Of dealers to
carry many units.
During the past week, however,
several distributors in the larger
centers OF population have placed
good sized orders, realizing that
they would be short of stock if a
sudden squirt of buying should come.
Chevrolet has been doing an out
standing job IN merchandising used
cars, selling more than a million
dollars worth every day for twenty
days, which performance has never
been eXcelled anywhere.
Considerable interest is being dis
played in the bantam Austin cars,
which will go into production be-
tween April Is and May /. The Aus
tin Company has been building up a
good dealer organization and, from
present indications, will have rep
reservation in every important point

CARBURETOR is PROVED
Down Draft Type Makes Good in
Gruelling Race Tests.

Every great invention has had
its period of test and experimental
ton before a final acceptance. This
is true of the down-draft carburetor,
feature of the new De Soto
straight eight power plant. Years
of convincing trial, in racing cars,
motorboats, airplane engines, and
tractors, preceded adoption Of this
principle by ChrySler Motors
engineers.
1t was the racing car that brought
the down-draft principle to its
present development for the auto
mobile. In November, 1926, Frank
Lockhart broke the track record at
Culver City with 145 miles an hour,
using downdraft carburetor
mounted over the supercharger.
The next year Lockhart, De Paolo,
Duray, Woodbury., Conner and
Arnold all used it here, and 1t has
been in nearly all racing cars since.
