NNE would be led to believe from
~ certain statements made by
some So-called prominent lawyers
and others that the Republican
nominee for Judge Of the circuit
court of this county is the one man,
out of about 900 lawyers in Marion
county, capable of filling this Of
flee. This is an amazing statement.
1t causes one TO pause and question
the real reason behind such aSser-
tions from these lawyers-and
others.
Scores of independent voters in
this community resent such noisome
tactics. especially underN the guise
Of a non-partisan organization.
Would it not be appropriate for
the electorate of this county to be
advised that the Democratic NOM
inee for this most important county
judicial position, Earl r. Cox, is a
lawyer of unqueStioned integrity,
tried ability, man who courts the
favors of none, and who, if elected,
will bring dignity and graeiousness
to the bench, with fresh and I'M
prejudiced outlook, whose judg-
ment would be seasoned with long
and successful legal experience?

MAY I extend my thanks to The
WI Indianapolis Times on behalf
of the Republican state central
committee for its excellent public
ity given in connection with the
recent visit Of President Hoover.
The advance notice of the APP
pearance of the President was so
short that widespread publicity was
most helpful in appriSing citizens of
city and state both of the signifi-
canoe of the visit and the details
OF the program. In this advance
work the committee wishes to COM
mend the Times. its news staff,
particularly Mr.. DoSs. who extended
every cooperation with our pub
Lefty department.
The committee also appreciates
the excellent coverage given the
meeting by your political, news and
feature writer's and your photogra-
pliers.

THANKS for the column oppor-
a tunity. I wish to say this :
There never was time when peo-
pie should be more interested in
politics. When you build house,
you absolutely must have founda-
ton. To have clean government,
you need good foundation. I sug-
gest that every state seek a man
who counts for honesty and integ-
rity, and one who does not seek for
self"
have been alone with two chill
oren for the last eleven years. A
person thus situated comes in con-
tact with many kinds of people and
suffers all kinds of insults.
Let me assure you, IN my humble
way, that when you vote for Fred
erick Van Mugs, you are voting for
a man who will do his honest duty.
He considers charity in an honest
way, and person capable of look
ing on charity at the right angle,
will prove another Abraham Lin
coin. 1 hope you will give him the
support to secure this office.

VILLAGE LIFE ELITE +.
IN ANCIENT SYRIA.
Harvard Archaeological Re-
search Produces Oldest
Map in World.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, February 26.-
Small-town life 1000 years ago, as
shown in a Harvard archaeological an
rouncement, was decidedly elite in
Syria.
The Oldest map in the world is de-
scribed as the most important exhibit
bearing on the research. 1t was found
under the -year-old town Of Nuzi,
about 200 miles north of Babylon.
Buried 20 feet below the present sur
face of the earth, it was ascribed to
still earlier town named Ga-Sur, 1000
years vintage
The map is cut on little rectangle
of clay. its face about the area of four
postage stamps. Along with numerous
trinketS, utensils and objects Of art, it
shows that these places in the sticks"
so far from Babylon's site, had many
OF todays essentials.
Farm Of Shat -Azala Shown.
The farm of shat-Azala is shown on
the map. Its location is identified as
probably Northern Syria. 1t is big
tract, comprising a valley running
north and south, with river down its
center and mountain ranges on both
sides The mountains are represented
by drawings resembling the tops of
eggs as seen in a modern crate.
Parallel lines, Stimulating the sinu-
osity Of flowing water, trace the river.
At its southern end the stream branches
into three, like delta. The bottom of
the map is decorated with horizontal
dashes, evidently sea into which the
river flowed In the northeast corner is
another river, flowing past a mountain
spur and off to the eastward through
another valley.
The map is well labeled in Sumerian
or Akkadian language symbols. Only
part of these have been translated.
They show the directions north and
south. One place name is the Fortress
of Ib-La"
The excavations were made by the
Semitic and Fogg Museums of Harvard
under the direction of r. F. S. Starr,
fellow of the Fogg Art Museum.
Drainage System Thorough.
Provincial little Nuzi had good mud
brick pavements that still retain their
semblance. Main street was broad,
with a palace on one side and the gov
ernorS home on the other Residence
streets were narrow, but paved. Some
were only passageways.
Many pages could be written" Mr..
Starr states, lin describing the elabora-
tion of the drainage system. Suffice it
to say that the thoroughness in dis
posing of this problem Is not easy to
be found in Iraq today.
"The ground plan. the variety of
pottery utensils found IN place, stores
of inscribed tablets, bronze implements,
painted walls and many other objects
and conditions of the daily life Of $500
years ago are perfectly preserved.
Here one finds the hitherto un-
known race of Hurri lived and built
their houses much as the Arabs do
today, and transacted their business
with a harsh shrewdness that the
modern Arab landowner would find
hard to duplicate

that the Republicans have nominated

Resolution Limits Heavy Land
Guns; Outlines Other
Agreements

Geneva, July 20.-(PtThe general
commission Of the world disarmament
conference Wednesday received from
a b-committee the draft Of a dec
laration to be adopted before ad-
journment.
At the last minute there was writ
ten in clause providing that all
heavy land guns of calibers between
certain limits shall be limited In num-
Der.
The United States delegation had
been holding out for total abolition
Of these weapons.
AS drawn by Sir John Simon and
Premier Benes of Czechoslovakia, and
approved by the delegations Of the
four powers, the declaration has five
divisions:
The first asserts that the confer
ence decides. guided by the general
principles underlying President Hoo
ver's disarmament declaration, (a)
that a substantial reduction in world
ornaments shall be effected. to be
applied by general convention alike
to land and naval ornaments, and
(b) that the primary objective shall
be to reduce means OF attack.
Division two lists the points on
which the conference, in concluding
its first phase, notes an agreement.
These are prohibition Of air attacks
against civilian populations; abolition
of all aerial bombardment. subject to
certain reservations, which include
regulation of civil aircraft with full
publicity; limitation Of maximum
tonnage of tanks and prohibition Of
chemical, meteorological and incen-
diary warfare.

washington, July 90 - An
eighth of the houses 435 members
are "out" before the real campaign
even begins.
This political toll already has been
taken by primaries. redistricting and
a few voluntary retirements. It does
not include members still in the thick
of intra-party battles or many others
who look nervously toward November
elections.
Political veterans, scanning the
list of colleagues who dropped by the
wayside before congress adjourned,
declared it "a bad year." They pre-
dict $50 to IT'S new names on the first
roll call of the 73rd congress.
There is a shift of q representa-
tives because of reapportionment.
That means that q members of this
congress represent districts thu t
won't even exist in the next congress.
Senatorial shifts are slower. Only
third of the 96 senators run each
year. When congress adjourned only
two-Brookhart of Iowa and Morrl-
son of North Carolina-had lost pri-
mary fights.

get set. including the 3o-odd states
that already had shown they want
ed some of the money, President
Hoover has delayed his signing of the
$2,l22, 100000 relief bill.
The white house announced the
postponed pen work-which had been
set for Tuesday-would let the pres
ident finish plans for reorganization
Of the reconstruction finance cor
poration, which will handle the huge
emergency fund.
This reorganization was to include
the appointment of successors to
Governor Eugene Meyer of the fed
eral reserve board and Paul Bestor,
farm loan commissioner, whose re-
tirements as directors Of the corpora
ton the bill made mandatory at the
presidents request.
Hoover had given no advance in
dication as to whom he would select
for these posts. Owen D. Young, in
dustrialist, and Wilson w. Mills, De-
troit banker, had been discussed by
others.
The corporation itself had decided
to discard red tape to expedite loans
from the $300,O00,000 fund for state
relief Of restitution and $4,000 900
for public works, the latter includ-
ing $l32,000,000 which can be used
to match state highway expenditures.
There were indications that states
might apply very soon for more than
5000, 100000 Of the $500, 100000 sum
as follows:
Arizona. Illinois. New York, and
Pennsylvania, $45,000,000 each; Mich
igan $l1 100000, Indiana $4,000
Kansas $2,750,000, Missouri and Utah
100000, Idaho $l,500,000, West vir-
ginia 100000.
Wisconsin also was trying to de-
eide how much to borrow.
Likewise. there were forecasts that
the following states would not ask re-
lief money: Florida, Maine, Mary
land, Nebraska, Nevada, North Da-
kota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and
Vermont. Colorado, Connect c u t,
Georgia, Idaho. Iowa, Louisiana,
Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississip-
pi, New Hampshire, New Mexico,
North Carolina, South Dakota, Ore
gon, Rhode Island, Texas, Virginia,
and Wyoming were deciding what
to do about restitution loans.
The following road loan applica-
lions were predicted: Arkansas ST.
10000. Georgia 100000, Montana
81 SOC, 900, North Carolina $4,000 900,
North Dakota, as much as it can get;
Wyoming $4,000, 900.
