ANYBODY else. These were tied up
closely with local and temporal asso-
Citations. Even a contemporary indian
of the same tribe probably would have
had considerable difficulty in inter-
preting the message. In most cases 1t
would have been meaningless even to
a member of a neighboring tribe. ANY
present day attempt at Interpretation
is hopeless.
The impression that these photographs
constitute a code of some sort is a
uuently it is not surprising that any
one who has had the imagination stirred
by buried treasure stories should believe
that the picture of bear on the face
of a prominent boulder conveys an
elaborate message describing the loca-
ton of a hidden treasure nearby. But
this would have been far from the
thought process of a primitive Indian.
Accounts Exaggerated.
Actually. Dr. Stirling points out, the
accounts of the Spanish explorers OF
the wealth displayed in the Indian vii
laees through which they passed doubt
less are enormously exaggerated The
so-called Muskogean culture OF the
Southeastern States was one OF the
highest attained in primitive North
America. but the wish for great wealth
was often father to the thought in the
minds of such men as De Soto and his
companions The Indians doubtless
had some gold. They also had con-
siderable quantities of fresh water
pearls, which they treasured highly but
which would have no value today.
Many requests for interpretations OF
supposedly cabahstic directions to
buried treasure come from Texas
where. it appears. there is persistent
legend the great quantities of gold
were brought from Mexico by Spanish
explorers who were killed in battles
with the Indians.
The Indian mounds found through
much of the Mississippi region also
are believed by many to be caches OF
Indian treasures. This belief, Smith
sonian archeologists point out, Is
entirely without foundation. Many
mounds were used for burial of the
dead. Excavation often reveals cher
ished personal objects inferred with
the bones of prominent Indians. But
such objects have no material value
and are Of interest only as they throw
light ON the Columbian culture
pattern.

JEWISH CONFERENCE
DELAY ADVOCATED
Committee on World Gathering
Holds Jews in America Are
Not United.

BY the Associated Press.
MILWAUKEE, June 2T.-The Central
Conference of American Rabbis, in ses-
sion yesterday. was advised by its Com
mittee on a World Jewish Congress to
refrain from calling world meeting on
Jewish problems until American Jewery
is unified. The committee, after study
ing various proposals many months held
that Jews of America were working at
cross purposes and that a world con-
gress now would start under handicap
so serious that there would be doubt of
worthwhile accomplishment.
The report was prepared by DR.. Will
liam Rosenau of Baltimore, chairman
of the committee. He was unable to
attend the conference, however, and
the committee findings were presented
by Rabbi H. c. Enelow, New York; S.
H. GoldenSon. Pittsburgh; Abram
Simon, Washington; Jonah B. Wise,
New York. and Jacob r, Marcus, Gin
cinnati.
The committee was hopeful, how
ever, that a world congress may be
called soon to cope with problems of
Jews everywhere, and plan for Ameri-
can participation in such a congress
was outlined
1t was proposed that the American
Jewish Committee, the American jew
ish Congress and the B'Nai Birth ap-
point from their officers and boards
representatives to a super board
This super board. it was suggested,
should then establish contacts with
representative groups of Jewries in Eu-
rope and elsewhere to work out plans
for world meeting.

nology of the Smithsonian In
Stitution is receiving a continual success
sion of requests to translate supposedly
cabalistic messages found on rocks and
cave walls, especially through the South.
These generally are photographs made
by the former Indian inhabitants. Some
of the Southeastern tribes were reported
by early explorers to have displayed
vast amounts of gold and especially
pearls. The idea has spread that they
buried these to conceal them from the
invading Spanish and French and left
directions in their own writing to TX
the locations. Photographs are scat

Actually. according to Dr. Mathew w.
