Search Of the desolate, Russian

coast Of Siberia for traces of early

planned next summer by DR.. Ales
Hrdlicka, curator of physical an
thropology Of the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition, if proper arrangements can be
made, he said last night in lecture
1t the National Museum.
For the last two summers, he has
been excavating old village sites and
mummy caves in the Aleutian Island
chain and has found, underneath the
sites Of the Aleut race now inhabiting
the area, artifacts of a pre-Aleut era
Of oblong-headed people who have no
living counterparts.
He believes these represent one of
the early human migrations from
Asia. At present. however, the trail

It will be necessary, he said, to
spend at least one more year in the
Arctic area to find any solution to
the problem upon which he has worked
for the last nine years. The Com
manders, he said, must have been
stepping stones and it is unlikely that
no trace would have been left of the
groups passing over them.
Following a search of these islands,
DR.. Hrdlicka said, efforts will be made
to examine all the anthropological
specimens preserved in the museums
OF Siberian cities. Some of these
smaller museums, he said, are known
to be rich in specimens of which
nothing is known to the outside world.
There are also several Aleutian sites.

one time or another in his laboratory.
Many discoveries, he asserts, owe much
to chance. That's what he thinks
about relapsing fever.
THIS fever had been known for
years in Africa. Russia and in the
Balkan States, and has a SO per cent
mortality record in some parts of the
world. But not until very few
years ago was any thing like it re-
corded in the United States. Then.
quite without warning, it turned UP,
unrecognized and mysterious as are
all new diseases. in the West and
Southwest. In 1915 c. N. Meader re-
ported five cases from Colorado, and
three years later j. ]. Waring re-
ported two more from the same State.
In 1922 LIE Roy H. Briggs sent word
to the United States Public Health
Service that two cases had come to
his attention in California and he re-
viewed their symptoms and history
in the journal of the American Medi-
cal Association. In addition, statisti-
cal reports from California in 1881
included 10 additional cases of the
disease.
From Texas came word from Bur-
ford Weller and G. M. Graham, in
1880, that they had collected evidence
of about so cases of the disease in
@f
science had succeeded in tracing the
infection to the bite Of a curious blue
tick.
Here was a new phase of an ancient
disease, for in the European countries
the illness had always occurred in re-
lation to overcrowding and body lice.
Not so this American version. On
the contrary the lonely caves in Mills
County, Texas County and San Saba
County, in Texas, proved to be the
source responsible for every case of
relapsing fever reported in Texas.
How did the men engaged in the
eternal and relentless battle against
germ hosts find this out? That, says
DR.. Francis, is where chance and the
ability to keep ones eyes open,
came in.
A party of boys, returning from a
camping trip, were smitten, one by
one, with an ailment that bore strik-
ing resemblance to one known to be
transmitted by body lice in the Old
World. They developed high tempera-

A. CLANCY, senior structural engineer,
who is supervising the design and
plans and the drawing up Of specifica-
tions. An architect, John P. Bills; a
design engineer and craftsman are
included in the force.
The engineers figure that if they
spend the money now most eco
nomically, provision can be made for
300 yachts in three basins, instead Of
the old set-up OIL 286 yachts. Pier
heads will be moved out so that no
work will have to be scrapped in the
future. The site of the future fourth
basin will be utilized for the time
being as the tying-up place for visit
ing yachts. The future yacht basin
will be at Eighth and K and Water
streets southwest, at the southerly
limit Of the yacht basin area. and
this will provide for 100 additional
yachts.
Navigational interests here made it
clear at the recent public hearing that
extension of the pierhead lines will
not interfere with the Norfolk &
Washington steamers tying up and
leaving here. "he new piers will be
constructed on an angle, designed to
facilitate navigation.
THE scheduled improvement pro-
gram will take eight years to ac-
complish.. During this building period

partment for this area will have con-
troll of the entire site. After construc-
ton has been completed the District
