in Mexico. l have a theory that
some culture developed among
these Indians-and was not
brought in from outside"
Bob wants to do more careful
investigation of the pre-stone age
theory, before publicizing it in
any scientific journals.
We are not college trained
Psychologists or anthropoligists,
he said. 1--WE have to be extra
sure of our findings before we
talk"
Casually Bob took out of a
bright colored straw bag some
magnificent handwoven hats be-
longing to the three tribes he
knows best.
"The coiored ribbons on the hats
show that a man is single and
fancy free When he gets mar
ried," said Bob, "the ribbons are
instead dull and grey-tIley are
even braided then in the form of
a chain"
The hats are worn by the Chap
as Indian tribes at slightly rak-
ish angle--whether the man is
married or single.
This is because the Indians ad
apted their hats from halos seen
in Spanish religious paintings.
They not only fashioned their
hats and halos but wear them at
the tilted angle Of a halo. Strange
~ enough these Mexican Indians
also wear dhotis-which are def
initely Eastern and not Western
garments.
The Mexican Indians-those
that wear the dhotis are known as
diaper Indians because Of the dia-
per effect of the yards of wrapped
cloth.
When the Russells 60 off on
their expeditions they take prac-
tieally no provisions from Key
West They eat what the natives
do.
We never get live have not
had any diseases as a result of our
diet or way of life"
The friendly Indians, Zoques,
Tzeital and Chontales, keep the
Russells supplied with fresh fruits
and vegetables,
We and the Indians are blood
brothers We keep our promises
to them-tfcy to us. If we promise
TO send them pictures when we
retuUn-We do SO.
Key West IS the Russells base.
I'VE love the climate and we
can always work outdoors, dress
as we please
Russell has been touring the
state leeturing on his expeditions
to various large groups. He is go
ing to address a group here in Key
West, on July 2.
Though planning on his next
winters expedition Russell's fu-
ture like everyone's else depends
upon the war situation. Good tires
are a must if you travel thousands
of miles over jungle. Without
tires Russell will have to stav
put.
IF do, I certainly won't
write" he said firmly. I'D rather
do anything other than that. IN

Bids 10 Be Asked Soon
For 5O-Year Lease Of
Western Market Site

The Commissioners will adver-
tise for bids in a week or two for a
50-year lease of the Western Mar
ket site for use as a combination
market and parking facility.
The successful bidder would
demolish the present building at
Twenty-firSt and K streets NV.
and erect a new structure. which
would belong to the District at
the end of the lease.
The lease form approved by the
Commissioners yesterday requires
that $4,000 square feet on the
ground floor of the new building
be used for public market.
Not less than 500 and not more
than 600 parking spaces would be
provided. Adequate of-street IA
cilities for loading market COM
modities also are required.
The successful bidder will have
to provide temporary accommo-
dations for persons displaced dur
ing construction of the new mar
ket.
The successful bidder must pay
annually an amount equal to the
taxes which would be due on the
land and building if it were taxed,
plus the annual sum he names in
his bid, and per cent of the gross
receipts.

in the market, to protect the

is these bills the machines are to
count.
New paper money has been
machine-counted for many years,
but not the worn-out notes. Old
money is wrinkled and dog cared.
Occasionally. single. torn notes
are gummed together. Counting
them has been too much for
machines-up to now.
The old money deemed unfit for
further circulation is returned to
the Treasury by the Federal Re-
serve Banks in stacks of 100 notes,
cut in half lengthwise. The packets
are counted at the Treasury to
double le-check that each contains
exactly 100 half notes and is
therefore okay for destruction by
burning.
Can't Catch Denomination.
With the electronic counter in
use, the only human activity re-
quired will be to place packets of
the old bills on an inclined trough
before the machine and turn on
the machine.
There's one slight catch: The
machine will just count the num-
ber of half bills. 1t can't detect
denominations. So if a Federal
Reserve Bank makes a mistake
and binds up half Of a So bill in
a pacekt of SIS. the machine
won't detect the error.
