DR.. Guy bethought him Of the passage IN 7
Kings, vii H. Of the Bible, which reads:
"'And the great court round about was with
three rows of hewed stones. and q row Of cedar
beams, both Of the inner court Of the house Of
the Lord and for the porch of the house
In the ashes near one Of these three rows
Of hewed stone,'" DR.. Guy said, I'VE found q

mitted for analysis to the Palestine Depart
ment Of Agriculture which in turn submitted
it to the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew.

Perhaps the most impressive of the discov-
cries in the mound were the mighty stables Of
old King Solomon, also found in stratum 4.
architecturally dated as having been built by
skilled foreign masons (probably Syrians)
shortly after the Philistines.
Unit upon unit of these stables were
unearthed complete with managers, stalls
stamping ground, and even holes in the pillars
through which Solomon's slaves used to put
the head halter tie-ropes were identified In
these particular stables Solomon used to keep
as many as 800 horses when trade was brisk.
ELSEWHERE in the Bible it Is told how Solo,
- mon was wholesale horse trader, exchang-
ing a horse for lone hundred and fifty shekels
of silver" or a chariot for six hundred shekes
of silver"
"It seems" said Dr. Guy "that Solomon
horses and chariots right here in Megiddo,
and he made a pretty good thing of it.
1t looks very much as If Solomon with
his characteristic acumen had picked upon
commodity which, while it enabled him to
strengthen and modernize his army, at the same
time enabled him to dispose of his surplus
stock, which would naturally accumulate, al
far as horses were concerned, by breeding.

after his death Shishak found it necessary to
go out and reduce them by sword and fire or
on the other hand, that the Pharaoh was him.

means of horses imported from the North so

at Megiddo. To the layman 1t looked like q
marred. cracked old hunk Of stone But to ex-
perts it told a marvellous tale and was hailed
by excited Orientalists in London, Paris, Berlin
and Rome as one of the great finds Of the year
"A fragment had been brought down from
the top mound as building block for use in
construction of the shelter house" DR. Breasted
said 1T was with considerable satisfaction
that was able to make out on it the name of
Shishak in heroglyphs very dimly glimmering
from a badly weather-worn and almost illeg
IDLY inscribed stone surface.
~ A a lad iE country Sunday school had
read often the familiar words of the
Old Testament historians in I Kings. xiv.
1926, that came back to me very vividly as
this record of the ancient conqueror's name
found in the midst of ruins of one of his cap
tured cities became slowly legible:
"'And it came to pass in the fifth year of King
Rehoboam that Shishak, King of Egypt, came
up against Jerusalem; and he took away the
treasures of the house of the Lord and the
treasures of the Kings house; he even took
away all; and he took away all the shields Of
gold which Solomon had made
THE fragment preserved was part of the
top of a large, round-topped stella, and the
round top could be restored on the basis Of the
portion preserved, so as to show that the great
slab was about five feet wide. Judging from
the proportions of similar monuments Shishak's
monument at Megiddo would, therefore, have
been some 10 feet high.
This great historical record at Megiddo,
commemorating the campaign Of Shishak in
Palestine, as recorded in the Old Testament,
may even have contained the name of Jeru-
salem written in Egyptian hieroglyphs, although
such a writing of the name of Jerusalem has
never been found
"One of the blocks and luckily the one con-
tanning the Pharaoh's name after having lain
doubtless for many centuries incorporated in
the masonry of some stone wall, was
thrown out and lay for years ON the summit
of Megiddo until brought down for our house
by the Palestine workmen, and one of the
Egyptian foremen accidentally noticed the
hieroglyphs which 1t bore. It Is very much
hoped that the buildings we have still to
excavate may disclose additional fragments of
this important monument"
IA /HEN malaria and overwork in the excavat-
w ing forced DR. Fisher to desist. the
direction in the field was taken up by DR.. P. L.
O. Guy. who delved deeper and deeper into the
mound of Armageddon through many centuries
until he got to stratum T. where another bit
of physical biblical evidence was found in the
remains of great house belonging to some
mighty dignitary Of past ages.
He noticed the excavators found in the base
of the walls of this structure and also In the
city walls curious architectural features
peated many times. Particularly on founda-
tions rested three rows Of hewed stone" in

BEARHUNT SEEN
MAKING READY
IN STOCKS
BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR

BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK, April 8 GN.SO
Chances for the market today
looked temporarily little brighter,
on the possibility that another
bear hunt is in the making. Re.
ports that a big pool had been
formed to help the market may
be exaggerated, but some OF the
buying at yesterdays close seems
significant.
The test should come early and
the signal for continuation of the
rally will be drying up of liquida-
ton on any further weakness.
Big Bears in Pool
The curious part Of the pool
r11mors is that some of Wall
Streets biggest bears are said to
be at the head of it.
Let's hope it's true. for it would
mean that the pool would have
plenty of money behind it.
Anyway, big orders were placed
In leading stocks about half
hour before the close, and there
was a bid of 35l2 for 5000 shares
of U. S. Steel just as the gong
rang.
Perhaps it's the old psychology
game with the aim of bringing a
covering movement. The short in
terest in the market is understood
to be pretty big, quite a bit more
than the official figures as of
April /.
Amateur Shorts Pinched
With a good deal of this from
amateurs, who are pretty easily
scared, good rebound is possible
if covering is forced. That they
are being pinched can be seen in
the fact that more than 100000
shares loaned to shorts were called
in the last two days.
Electric output of consolidated
gas for the first quarter of the
year is said to be / per cent above
the same period a year ago, as
compared with a decline for the
industry as a whole, which in re-
cent weeks has been running over
10 per cent.

BECOMES
MILDLY FOR DAY

ANNAPOLIS, Md, April ga
diminutive Japanese naval officer,
assistant attache of the Japanese
Embassy, in Washington, turned
back the years and again joined
the ranks of the school boys
yesterday when he spent the
entire day here living the daily
routine of a midshipman at the
Naval Academy.
Comdr. 2. Hoshina arrived at
the academy yesterday morning
at 5:45, half an hour before the
most ambitious young midship-
man had stirred, to begin his day.
He wanted to see what was the
course of, procedure at the
academy before the days routine
started.
He found out that nothing hap
pened except he was greeted by
a sleepy officer of the watch and
they had to make shift to pass
the half an hour before rising
time in idle conversation.
Commander Hoshina attended
classes with the middies during
the day and witnessed the vari-
Gus drills they attend. He re-
manned with them until the last
drill at 4:30 o'clock in the after
noon. He was entertained at
luncheon by the commandant of
midShipmen.
While at the academy, the jap
aneSe witnessed every phase of
middy's life, even watching the
boys at their daily gymnastic
class. He said he was going to
be assigned to the Naval Academy
of Japan. when he returned to
that country.

Rate
Control Is Favored

Every Shining company engaged
in interccastal trade favors the
Johnson bill empowering the
Shipping Board to regulate inter
coastal rates, Edward P. Farley,
representing the American-Ha-
waiian Steamship Lines, told the
Senate Commerce Committee to-
day.
The bill would compel inter-
coastal shipping companies to file
a schedule of their rates and
service. All changes in rates and
service would be subject to the
approval of the board.
