CHARLESTON. w. Va, July 26.-
Gunmen who killed one deputy sheriff
and wounded another, and an hour later
deposited the body of Ralph Harper in
an alley at Huntington w. Va, left
police mystified as to why they snatched

Safe Driving Hint
The Right of Way

Our graveyards are heavily
populated with motorists who
sailed along serenly under the
false colors of the right-of- way
banner.
Actually, the term "right-of-
way" as q hard and fast rule to
follow is as old-fashioned as
auto. cranks and linen busters.
It's all right when you have the
right-of-way to keep going at
the intersection, but keep your car
under control because the other
fellow may think he has it, too.
Don't place too much faith in
him. II he doesn't stop as he
should, then you must be able
to stop or there will be
smashup.
Substitute in your trafiic vo-
cabulary the axiom that there is
q safe way" for every emer-
gency. Learn to depend upon
the "safe way" and you will
never be killed in q futile attempt
to defend the right-of-way.

TWO NATIONS ASK
j. s. TRADE PACTS
Cuban Ambassador and
Swedish Charge Confer
With President.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

Senor Oscar de Cintas, Cuban Am
bassador at Washington, and the
Swedish charge d'aifaires. Baron Johan
de Beck Friis, called today at the
White House to discuss with President
Roosevelt the question Of a trade
agreement between their respective
countries and the United States.
Both countries have signified their
desire to begin negotiations as soon as
possible and before entering into direct
conversations with the officials OF the
State Department and the Department
of Commerce. they want to ascertain
the views of the President in regard 10
the reduction of tariffs on the staple
products of their countries into TINS
country.
The Cubans are interested mainly in
the reduction Of tariff on sugar and
certain seasonal fruits and vegetables
which do not compete with the Amer
ican farm products during three months
Of the year.
Others May Take Step.
The representatives of Norway. Portu.-
gal and Finland are expected TO seek
an interview with the President early
in September.
The State Department is keenly in
terested in the Pan-American confer
ence scheduled to be held early in Ds-
cember at Montevideo. This conference
originally was planned to be one OF
those usual gatherings where interest
ing topics on general policies were to be
discussed.
The failure OF the World Economic
Conference. however. gives this meet
ing a new and very important charac-
ter. There is no longer any question
of talking over generalities on rela-
tionship between the South American
countries, with the United States rep
resentatives sitting in as a guide and
a mentor: but the vital question OF eco
nomic and financial relations between
the two continents will have to be gone
over.
Continents Solidly Linked.
What the London conference failed to
achieve for the whole world may be
agreed upon between smaller group OF
states of both American continents.
Economically and otherwise, the two
continents are more solidly linked to-
gether than America Is linked with Eu-
rope, and the prospects OF reaching
some substantial agreement regarding
a free interchange of goods are bright
er than ever before.
No delegates have been chosen by the
President for the conference vet. but 1t
is believed that the men whom Mr.
Roosevelt is going to send to Monte
video are going to be hand-plcked

Airplane, mule and Indian dugout

Smithsonian Institution expedition
which has Just returned from little-ex-
plored Honduran iungles. where the
archeologists sought for possible extern
sions of the ancient Maya culture
The Smithsonian party. consisting Of
Alan Paine, DR. William D. Strong and
Norman Haskell, spent more than four
months in Central America studying
the ethnology of little-known Indian
tribes, eXcavating mounds and making
a natural history collection. Among
their experiences was the finding of
sharks living in fresh water nearly 200
miles up the Patuca River-evidently
sea sharks that had become accustomed
to river life.
Sought Evidence of Migrations.
With one exception. the archaeological
sites studied were of the So-called "Cho-
rotegan culture area" This was an In
dian culture widely distributed in
Southern Central America and of high
that of the Maya peoples. 1t was hoped
the party would find evidence of Maya
migrations which would throw new light
on this remarkable people. The excep-
ton was in the Bay Islands. in the
Caribbean Sea. just off the Honduran
coast, where specimens Of polychrome
pottery were found, with features highly
suggestive of Maya influence.
On one of the Bay Islands the scien-
fists found themselves amid the ruins of
an old buccaneer hide out" where there
had been a flourishing pirate town dur
ing the days of the Spanish Main. They
found remains of old brick and stone
Notifications built by the pirates. with
placements for cannon and protecting

not looking for treasure, of course, but
they were deeply interested in the weird

descendants of the buccaneers to whom
treasure hunting is a regular occupa-
ton. So far as could be learned, no.
body has ever found any, of the leg
endary buried gold.
Old Rum Bottles Found.
The scientists did, however, find hun
dreds Of old English rum bottles scat
tered along the sides of a creek-evi-
dence of the high life led by the sea
ScourgeS of 800 years ago. A cave which
local people believed to have been a
treasure cache. they decided, was most
likely pirate rum cellar
The expedition was privately financed
and the Smithsonian Institution was
represented by DR.. Strong of the staff
of the Bureau of American Ethnology
It went as far as the headwaters of the
Patuca, part of the country where
there has been little scientific explora-
ton in the past. Among its achieve
ments was that of taking the first mov-
ing pictures yet made of the Sumu and
