would be followed by a revolt Of

Discovery of a 'lost world" in un-
explored jungles of Venezuela by
scientists searching for unknown
forms of bird and animal life was
described here yesterday by E, Thomas
Gilliard of the American Museum Of
Natural History.
The explorers found lofty, un-
charted sections of distintegrating
plateau scarcely less fantastic than
the imaginary places described by Sir
Conan Doyle in The Lost World"
Mr. Gilliard told members of the
American Ornithologists' Union at
their 56th annual meeting here.
A similarity of animal and plant
life on two recently discovered noun
tains in the jungle led scientists to
believe that the mountains, although
400 miles apart, were sections of an
ancient plateau, and that other parts
lay between them.
The area between Mount Roarami,
near the junction of British Guiana,
Venezuela and Brazil, and Mount
Dulda, on the upper Orinoco, was
totally unknown. The latest maps

explored Jungle in search Of traces OF
oil deposits.
An expedition was organized by the
museum last fall and Mr.. Gilliard
went along as its ornithologist.
Airplanes furnished by the Vene-
zuelan government flew the scientists
and their equipment over unknown
jungle toward the supposed mountain
In less than two hours they saw a
vast sheer cliff Of red and white
sandstone looming ahead.
The party found landing field on
the barrier cliffs. In two hours they
had crossed tractless wilderness
which would require two months by
river and jungle.
Indians Garry Equipment.
Indians of the vicinity were hired to
carry the equipment up the cliffs.
In exchange for trinkets, knives,
blankets, etc, they toiled up the al
most perpendicular walls to the sum-
NIT of the plateau.
Mr.. Gilliard explained the natives
were polygamiSts, each of whom
brought several wives, who carried
the heaviest loads
"On top Of their regular packs, y
Mr.. Gilliard said. the wives carried
their children and household effects. y
The natives called the mountain
Auyan-tepui. Its barrier cliffs rose
a sheer 1000 feet in many places, and
its wide top was scanned and broken
with deep crevasses which made ex-
tensive exploration on foot impossible,
The scientists remained for three
weeks on the plateau, collecting the
few birds and animals they could find
in the arid region, and classifying

the plant life. The flora and fauna
they obtained, however, were enough
to convince them that Mount Auyan-
tepui was part Of great, decaying
plateau which includes the other two
discovered mountains and others yet
to be seen by white man.
The ornithologists opened their
meeting yesterday morning at the Ma
tional Museum and will bring it to
close tomorrow. Speakers on yester-
days program included Harrison F..
Lewis of the National Parks Bureau,
Ottawa. Canada, who described the
great feeding grounds of migratory
ducks and geese on James Bay, the
southern arm of Hudson Bay.
Mr.. Lewis said that the completion
Of a railroad to a point near the
southern end of James Bay several
years ago had resulted in large
increase in the number of outside
hunters. While the hunters, with their
modern arms, failed noticeably to de-

CONTROL
BILL IS PASSED
1915, 600, 900 Plan Backed
by Senate Now Goes to

~ tbs Associated Press.

By this Associated Press.
A 4375 ,000, 900 food control bill
which sharply restricts the Army en-
gineers' authority over electric power
policy received the Senate's stamp Of
approval yesterday.
The omnibus measure. previously
passed IN different form by the House,
now goes to conference committee.
It authorizes the construction Of prof.
ects during the next i've years.
Senator Norris, independent, Of Ne
braska and Senator Barkley, Demo-
crat, Of Kentucky, majority leader,
succeeded in attacking an amendment
depriving the Army engineers Of au-
thority to determine whether hydro
electric facilities should be installed in
food control dams. This authority was
transferred to the Federal Power Com
mission.
Senator Norris declared the engineers
had too much power. Senator Cope
land. Democrat, Of New York opposed
the amendment.
Another amendment adopted would

title to food control dams.
Still another, by Senator McNary,
Republican, Of Oregon, would author
ize the Government to pay the full cost
Of relocating highways, railroads and
other utilities on lands needed for
reservoirs. The House bill would re-
quire local governments to pay 80 per
cent Of the costs Of relocation, lands,
easements and rights of way.
A second revision Of local contribu-
ton requirements was made when Sen
ator Barkley obtained passage Of an
amendment providing . 80 per cent
Federal payment for channel diversion
projects.
This amendment, Senators said, did
not change the required 100 per cent
local contribution for property rights
needed for levees and similar local
works.
