k-C.C. Committee In Fiesta Jan. 18th

SAN FRANCISCO, Calf
The Central Committee of the
Northern California G. F. u.
Lodges has made plans to
hold it's annual Program and
Grand Ball and the site Sc
lected for this winters gala is
Sacramento.
The event will take place in
the beautiful Hellenic Center
Hall at 600 Alhambra Road
in Sacramento and the two
local Lodges 434 and 834 are
taking the lead in making the
preparations for the festivi-
ties.
The Sacramento committee,
consisting of Ana Radman,
Peter Lozancich, Tony Mar
kov, Peg Dedier and George
Glavas as Chairman, is out to
make extraordinary prepara-
tions for the affair.
This year bro. Glavas
promises that his commit
tee will leave no stones un-
turned, which will make

this winters annual even
more successful than the
ones of years back.
Knowing the great enthu-
siasm and initiative spirit of
the Sacramento Committee,
we expect nothing but a tre-
mendous event on Saturday
night, January 10, 1857, at
the Hellenic Center. For the
ball the committee has Sc
lected the Bill Rase Orches-
ira, who perform daily on
radio and T. v. shows in Sac
ramento.
The whole central commit
tee is out scouting for talent,
to appear on our program
and we feel certain that by
the time the curtain rises on
January 19 there will be per-
formers from every major
city in Northern California.
Why not make plans to at
tend this Grand Ball and Pro
gram.

Along the western wall of
the Baptistry are two sarco-
phaguses, one of Bishop John
of Ravenna, the other Of Lo-
vre Dalmatinac. The latter
was a personal friend of King
Zvonimir in the -11th Century.
The inscription at the en-
trance to the Baptistry dates
from 1893 and tells about the
affairs IN the frOnt OF the eQl-
flee. These affairs are no long
er around.
Priests Maintain Hope
During the writer's tour
through Diocletian's Palace
he ran across several Croa-
tian priests and exchanged
the time Of day in brief with
two Of them.
One was suspicious of us

on the case report.
Sacramento, California
A $4,000 reward has been
paid to II. j, Morgan, letter
carrier whose action in re-
sisting armed holdup led in
spectors to the bandits.
Morgan had been held up,
made to drive to a deserted
field, dismount from his truck
and drop his trousers.
Although thus entangled
i'm his clothing, he jumped
the man holding the gun
ard wrcstled it from him.
The carrier was shot in the
leg and hand, but still held
on to the gun. The robbers
then drove the truck around
the field and attempted to
run him down. He ducked,
and they droye off in the
truck, only to be caught later
by inspectors who traced
them down through the gun.
Des Moines, Iowa
The arrest of Robert E.
Sherman's wife in a Chatta-
nooga bank recently, launch.
ed the biggest forgery case OF
this year. Sherman, using his
trick of watching from out
side the bank, got away.
He continued to steal bank
statements from house mail
boxes, forge checks on the
accounts and have a woman
accomplice cash the checks in
banks. He obtained $4,000 in
four m o n t h s, victimizing
banks in nearly every State.
Sherm a n, learning in
spectors were closing in,
tried to reach Canada but
it was too late. Inspectors
sprung the trap and caught
up with him and one of his
female accomplices in Des
Moines, Iowa. Simultane-
ously OF her inspectors
closed in at Atlanta, Los
Ang eles $, San Francisco,
Houston, New Orleans, and
St. Louis and arrested all
other known accmplices.
"These cases are only ar
indication of the variety Of
matters reported every day ir
various stages of completion
to the Chief Inspector" Mr.
Summerfield added.
! Hundreds Of other mat
ters are considered daily
ranging from a wide variety
of inquiries and technical re-
ports, to the activities of the
most vicious types of crimi'
nails. I have released some o1
this routine material from Mr.
Stephens because I believe il
will give some idea of the
public service performed by
this small corps of highly
trained investigators, founded
under Benjamin Franklin anc

San Francisco, California
Wallace J. Johnson, a fugi-
tive from the law for ten
years, has been located and
apprehended by inspectors.
He was identified from a
wanted circular by a social
ite member of a fashionable
riding academy at San Ma
teo, where he was riding
master under All assumed
name.
Johnson was indicted in
Chicago in 1916 following a
confidence swindle involving
the sale of forged notes. He
was charged at the time with
obtaining 100000 from three
individuals.
Atlanta, Georgia
Fred O. Barfield, 33, after
a 3-day trial by jury has been
found guilty and sentenced to
three years in prison for mail
ing obscene poison pen letters.
In one instance, letters
were received by the parents
Of two teenage girls in a we'll
to-do suburb of Atlanta, ac-
cusing one daughter of the
most sordid sexual behavior.
The parents say they were
divorced as a direct result Of
the letters.
The matter came to the at
tention of the Inspection Ser
vice in another instance
where a man belatedly report
ed receipt of a series of ano-
nymous letters accusing his
wife of wildly described alb
normal relations with other
men. Divorce proceedings had
been started against his wife,
but the man disappeared and
has not been heard from
since.
The Inspection Service
was greatly handicapped by
other distraught families
who, instead of notifying
this Service and turning
over the evidence, hid or
destroyed the letters and
refused to discuss the mat
ter. r,
Shootings and suicides were
narrowly averted before the
Service, with the aid Of all
the mail carriers in that part
OF the city, found one Of the
poison pen letters in transit,
which Barfield was sending
to his own exwife Tin hiding
from hirnJ and which led to
his Identification and -appre-
hension.

ments on this portal, but the
tourist can still see on its
architrave two wings OF the
Goddess Victoria. It Is said
that this statue was damaged
in the period when Christian
ity was first introduced here.
A cross was carved into the
wall and thus replaced the
celebrated statue.
On the upper part of the
Porta Ferrea runs q simple
row of arches, and in the
narrow corridor, centuries
later, a small church came
to be established. 1t Is
known as Our Lady of The
Campanile (Gospe cd Zvo-
nika).
There are two other gate
ways here, the Porta Argen-
tea, or the Silver Gate, and
the Porta Aenea, or the Brass
Gate. The latter acquired it's
name in the Middle Ages.
Northern Part Problem
The interior Of Diocletian's
Palace was intersected by two
main streets - Via Principal
lis and Via Sagularis.
The former divided the Pa
lace, into it's northern and
b southern parts and connected
1.-THE Silver with the Iron Gate.
Much difficulty is being
T experienced today in at
tempting to reconstruct the
appearance of the northern
part, for only a very small
number of architectural
fragments have been pre-
served to serve as q basis
for rebuilding.
However, it Is definitely
known that in this part were
rooms and dwellings for the
Emperor's soldiers, attend
ants and servants, as well as
stables, bakeries stores, etc.
It is indeed surprising that
so much is known Of the Pa
lace to this day.
Grandiose Apartments
In the southern part, the
meeting point of all the main
streets, stood the richly or
namented Imperial Porch, or
the Peristyle, the anteroom
to Emperor Diocletian's pri'
vate apartments.
The Emperor decorated the
Peristyle on each side with a
row of monolithic marble and
granite columns broug h I
from Egypt. Above the arch
es of the Peristyle is richly
embellished trabeation built
of local stone. ed. - Ira
beated work is built with no.
rizontal beams instead o1
arches.)
On the eastern side of
the Peristyle is Diocletian's
Mausoleum and on the
right his Temple. At the
far end is the entrance to
the Emperor's apartments.
Architects are now trying
to. determine the exact ar
rangements of these apart
ments and may in the neal
future be able to establish {
basis for recreating what
must have been quarters o1
great splendor in those an
cient times.
The Emperor's Mausoeum
The Mausoleum of the En-
peror Diocletian is a story IL
itself, for from an architectu
raj and artistic standpoint il
is a masterpiece personified.
Located on the eastern side
Of the Peristyle, the Mauso
leum is octagonal in desig1
(82 #. high) and stands on
high support e ft. high. Il
is surrounded by a portico o1

The Chapel Of St. Lucy
Although this Mausoleum
is octagonal in shape on the
outside, it's interior is round
and broken by four oval and
as many rectangular recesses
in it's walls.
The guide pointed out that
the interior is A feet in di-
ameter and the cupola 70 feet
in height. Between the inches

Egyptian granite. with Corin-
THAN and combined capitals.
beyond the upper row of
pillars rises the cupola of
the Mausoleum. The cupola
is made of bricks and deco
rating its center Is a styl-
lied stone flower design.
Below the Mausoleum is a
crypt, which was trans
formed into the Chapel of
st. Lucy in the Middle
Ages. =
Archaeologists are certain
that the well preserved beau.
ty of the Imperial Tomb is
due to the fact that Bishop
John of Ravenna had trans.
formed it into the Cathedral
Of Split near the end of the
9th Century.
Bishop John OF Ravenna
We were also to see in Split
the pagan Temple, today a
Baptistry, and the city's his.
toric Cathedral. The exact
original Inside looks" of the
Cathedral are unknown tc
this day. fr.
We were told that when
Bishop John of Ravenna
came to Split to reorganize
the old Church he transform.
ed the Emperor's Mausoleum
into a Christian place of wor.
ship and carried out many
changes in the structure.
1t seems that in the Mid
die Ages the periphery of
the Mausoleum served as a
burial place for the nobili-
ty. Remaining to this day
are several medieval sarco-
phaguses. Among these is
the one of Peter Kuzmin,
first known mayor of Split,
and of Archbishop Martin.
,, Just above the portal Of the
Cathedral are two other sar
cophaguses, those Of the two
daughters of Hungarian King
Bella w. Named Catherine
and Margaret, the daughters
died at Kills in 1912.
The magnificence Of this
great Cathedral is truly 6
sight to behold.
Slabs From 9th Century
The Baptistry is we'll pre-
served and reeks with histo
rical greatness. -
The christening font which
was placed in the Baptistry il
inlaid with stone slabs from
the 9th Century. These art
decorated with ancient Croa
tian ornaments and on tn.
front slab there are three
figures.
Experts still maintain
that the man on the throne
(on the slab) with crowned
head represents the Croa-
tian King Petar KreSimir,
or perhaps Dmitar Zvoni-
mir. Another man stands
by, while the third is sup
posed to be a slave kneel-
ing before the King.

Oiled Roads Held
Among CuIprits
In Lung Cuncer

OMAHA. Oct. II tP. - A
California expert said last night
that oiled or tarred roads may
well be a eulprit in the increase
in lung cancer.
The increase in the miles Of
tarred roads correlates more
closely to the increase in lung
cancer than cigaret smoking. I"
said DR.. Ian Macdonald OF the
University Of Southern Cali
fornia.
DR.. Macdonald is a smoker.
He said lung cancer is most
common in highly Industrial
lied urban areas. especially
where there Is a variety in the
kinds of industry.
DR.. Macdonald noted that
many proponents Of the cancer
from smoking theory based
their conclusions on the devel-
opment Of skin cancer on mice
painted with ciearet tars.
But common. everyday Los
Angeles smoe. painted on the
backs Of mice. produced great
er skin cancers" he said.
Which Just goes to show that

Macdonald said.
