Germany, therefore, will proceed

Hitler is entirely bereft of his

So, if Hitler's number is up, the
area around the eastern end of the
Mediterranean would provide an
ideal setting for the x that marks
the spot.
But we are far from convinced
that Hitler will have his showdown
there. The combinations and per-
mutations of central and eastern
Europe would seem to offer him far
better run for his money.

Tombs Give Up Ancient
Jewelry of Bronze Age

Metz, France.-Tombs filed with
ancient vases and jewelry that date
back more than 5000 years have
been discovered in excavations
made near here by Prof. M. Delort
of the Metz High school
These archaeological finds, which
date back to the iron and bronze
ages, were discovered in hitherto
unknown mound which a forest
ranger stumbled upon in the Anzel-
ing forest, near Bouzonville.
After two days Of excavation De-
lort reached a wide cinder bed and
under this found the first tomb. In
side he found two black vases. one
fitted into the other, a sword
attached to two copper rings, which
were formerly slipped on the belt
of the warrior and one long spear.
Further excavations in the forest
of Charleville-sou-Bois revealed a
more ancient tomb. which Delort
claims goes back farther to the
bronze age. This tomb contained
beautifully engraved pins, almost
fifteen inches in length. bracelets,
solars. curving vases Of different
sizes, a bronze knife. and various
large pieces Of quartz.
Delort is studying these archeo-
logical finds, and when he has COM
pleted his report on their historical
background. will place them in the
