First traces Of the unknown
prehistoric Indians who lived in
the Everglades have been dis

of the Bureau Of American
Ethnology. Mr.. Stirling has re-
Gently returned from several
months of archaeological explora-
ton in Florida.
On the very edge Of the Ever
gladeS, near Lake Okechobee, Mr..
Stirling encountered a great plan
of earthworks, elaborately laid out
in embankments and mounds,
and covering an area mile
square.
So large and conspicuous are
these earthworks, Mr.. Stirling
said, that it is surprising that no
previous explorer has ever re-
ported thei. existence or their
significance.
The nearest approach to any
thing like them are the famous
Fort Ancient earthworks in Ohio,
which were also made by pre-
historic mound-building Indian
tribes.

URGE CENTRAL
BANK To BUY
MORTGAGES
N. Y. U. Speakers Offer Plan
to Cut Interest, Increase
Liquidity of Realty Deals

NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-Forma-
ton of a central urban mortgage
bank in the United States whose
functions would be to buy or
discount mortgages from the vari-
Gus present agencies lending
money on urban real estate, to
increase the liquidity of real
estate securities and cheaper
mortgage credit for home owners
is urged by Dean John T. Madden
and Prof. Marcus Nader, of New
York University.
May Go to Congress
The plan, which has received
the Endorsement of the National
Association of Real Estate Boards,
with 800 chapters throughout the
country. and has been discussed
sympathetically by other organi-
cations interested in real estate,
such as building and loan asso-
cviations, may be the subject of
legislation when Congress con-
veneS in December.
Dean Madden and Prof. Nader
explained that the plan they have
in mind preSupposes the estab-
lishment of an organization SINH
lar in structure to the Federal
reserve system.
just as the Federal reserve sys-
tenn centralizes facilities for the
nations banks, so would a cen
trail urban mortgage bank CO.
ordinate, systematic and facili-
tate real estate financing.
Would Cheaper Credit
The authors of the plan be-
1ieve that the proposed bank
would not only make credit for
real estate purposes cheaper and
more readily available, but would
diminish greatly the evil of
frozen real estate investments
and thereby exercise a salutary
effect upon the general business
and economic conditions of the
country.
Dean Madden and Prof. Nader
pointed out that central urban
mortgage banks and similar in
stitutions are not a novelty and
that in many European and South
American countries they have
functioned with success. They
believe that the experience gained
by other countries in this re-
spect should be utilized here.
