tain red men believe gives their shaman the
power of god when he dons it - enabling
him to cure disease, stop floods and prevent
landslides
This 'god-mask" was sold to me by the
political chief of the Kagaba village of Palo-
mino in the wild Sierra Nevada de Santa
Marta, whose snowy peaks overlook the
tropical Atlantic coast of Colombia. After /
had bought it for the collection of ethnoogy

Philadelphia and the Museum ofthe American
Indian, Heye Foundation - | discovered that
the chief had stolen it from the temple during
the absence of the old and feeble shaman or
medicine man.
To return it then might have meant serious
trouble for the Chief and possibly for myself.
decided to take it out for study, in the hope
of returning it later. This the University
Museum which has had plaster cast made
of the mask-has generously given me per
mission to do.
Through my assistant, James Hawkins, of
Santa Marta, Colombia, have learned that
the Indians do not connect the loss of the
much venerated, worm eaten god-mask with
my visit to their village. 1t is problematical
what their attitude will be when l return it,
but believe they will be so glad to have it
back that there will be no departure from
their previous attitude of friendlness to me.
The Kagabas have only few of these
masks. They do not know how to make new
ones, and are not even certain whether these
were made by their own ancestors or some
other tribe.
So far as l know, this will be the first case
of an explorer returning anything valuable
that he had acquired from an Indian tribe.

law SCHOOL PUT
ON TRIAL BY BAR
Senator Long Challenges
Associations Status in
Kennedy Case.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BATON ROUGE, La, May 10
The American Bar Association has
placed the Louisiana State University
Law School on probation for giving a
special law diploma to Kemble K.
Kennedy. longtime friend Of Sen
atOr Huey P. Long.
Long was a friend of Kennedys
before he became political power in
Louisiana and once acted as Ken
nedy's lawyer in court litig.tion.
The Council on Legal Education
and Admissions to the Bar, the ruling
body of the organization in determin-
ing the standing of law schools, found
that Kennedy had been issued the
diploma certifying graduation in
law" before he completed his studies
and without recommendation of the
law faculty.
Council Spokesman Heard.
A council spokesman in Washing
ton said the action was based on the
single case of Kennedy.
The university will be- given a
chance to answer the charge at a
hearing by the council July IS at Los
Angeles.
Senator Long, on hearing Of the
action, remarked the association Is
"a bunch of corporation lawyers"
He said the association has no more
legal status to control schools and
colleges than I have in the govern
ment of China. Louisiana will tell
them to go slap dab to hell"
Kennedy, in November, 1880. was
convicted in District Court at Baton
Rouge on a charge of criminal libel
in connection with the publication
Of the Whangdoodle, paper which
attacked the school administration.
He was suspended by the late
Thomas w. Atkinson, former presi-
dent of the university. just before he
had completed his final examinations
in the Law School.
Reprieved by Long.
Kennedy served eight days Of his
sentence of one year before he was
seprieved by the then Gov. Long.
Long continued to issue reprieves
until 1882. when the personnel of
the State Board of Pardons changed
and Kennedy was granted a pardon.
The board of supervisors authorized
the issuance Of degree to Kennedy
on June S, 1888. This degree was
signed by James M. Smith, university
president, and Gov. o. K. Allen, but
not by r. L. Tullis, dean of the
Law School.
Kennedy unsuccessfully sought ad-
mission to the bar from the Supreme
Court. One of Longs laws later
established the State Bar of Louisiana
and 1t admitted Kennedy to practice
on March 2, 1885.

1900 of Nations Wealthiest

By United Press
NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-More than
1900 of the wealthiest and most
powerful men of the country left a
four-day convention today pledged
to use politics, propaganda and per-
sonal influence to defeat President
Roosevelt in next years elections.
The industrialists declared war
without quarter on every deviation
in government from the American
system" and asserted an intention
to enlist their stockholders, en-
ployes and the general public.
Closing the annual convention of
the National Manufacturers AsSo-
citation and the congress of industry
last night, the executives of more
than 1000 corporations adopted a
platform for industry" that de-
clared the New Deal a hindrance to
recovery and menace to freedom.

voices dissented from the program
of the belligerent majority of an
organization which only year ago
urged all industry to corporate in
every feasible way" with the gov
eminent.
The platform adopted by the con-
vention demands immediate and
complete abandonment of attempts
to control or plan production, dis
tribution, wages and employment
and asserts that private industry is
amply able to deal with 10000, 900
unemployed if left unhindered.
1t defines "the American system
as one restricting in no way the lib
critics given by the Constitution, en-
couraging individual initiative, pro-
tecting the rights of individuals to
hold property and the private own
ership of means of production and
limiting government to minimum
functions.
