Inca towns or DR. Bingham's city of Macchu
Picchu is the more probable site Of the legend
airy Inca city OF Tampu ToccO from which
the brothers started their conquests
Many an argument can start over word
and so 1t is with this controversy. Pretty
much Of everything hinges on the meaning
OF the Inca word Tocco. The trouble is that
Tocco is used with two meanings. window
and cave
DR. Bingham back in 1911 at Macchu
picchu. found a house which had three win
dows no more and no less Here said Dr.
Bingham in effect are the symbols Of the
word Tocco window Perhaps these are
the three symbols of the three Inca brothers.
An this led the distinguished Yale SCI
enlist To regard Macchu Picehu as the home
town" Of the Incas especially since Macchu
Picchu was very hard to get at and was not
known TO the Spanisrds.
Because Dr. Bingham found windows but
no caves. IT is natural 20 suppose that he liked
the meaning Of window for the word Tocco.
But Or Fejos in his newest discoveries
of these stiu more remote cities can No better
than that He has not only found the char
acteristic three windows but he has found
three caves which appear TO have been used
for ceremonial purposes and which are largely
man-made
Moreover Or Fcios cites the Peruvian
expert prof J. NJ Farfan Of the University
of san Marcos al Lima as saying that the
Inca word Tocco is much more often used
to mean caves than it is for windows

The appointment of seven men
TO the Wayne County board of

Gilman Harry 1. Dingeman was
made legally and will not be af-
fected by Dingeman's indictment
or the possibility of his custer
from Common Council, city legal

The seven Dingeman appointees
included Tracy M. Doll. Go

supposed to have been elected
to council originally on an anti
Go platform.
Council is entitled to appoint
so members Of the 152-man board
and normally divides that number
among the nine members by draw
ing slips from a hat, five of the
nine being permitted to name six

"We all still believe in Harry"

papers. No one ever saw any
money hidden In the rafters."

Contempt Term
For Dingemdn
Discussed

Circuit Judge Harry B. Keidan,
who conducted the hearing at
which Councilman Harry Dinge-
man swore he had not been bribed,.
said today he will confer with
Judge Homer Ferguson, who in
dicted Dingeman for allegedly taxi
ing a $1,000 bride.
Dingeman, if convicted, could be
cited for contempt of court (maM-
mum penalty: six months and
$3.50 or for perjury (l5 years.,
said Judge Keidan. Ironically. the
maximum penalty for bribe-taking
is only 10 years.
PURGE BY HAMILTON
Councilman John Hamilton, who
similarly denied accepting bride
and later admitted taking SIS,
went before Judge Keidan and
purged himself of perjury by re-
tracing his first testimony
Before trying Mr.. Dingeman
for perjury or for contempt,
want to learn from Judge
Ferguson what immediate effect
this might have on his investiga-

The testimony on which such a
charge against Dingeman would
be based is contained in the court
record of the trial of the suit
brought by Maurice Bein, steel
contractor. who was an unsuccess-
fUf biddeFfe the Herman Gardens
project, to have the contract won
by his competitors set aside. That
testimony included the following:
