WerIt on the excavations will be started as scon,aa weather cenditiWls permit, probably in June, and will be carried em by Eskimos under the di, section of Alfred 11. Hopson, an Alaskan_;who has been selectedfor the work, According to r. J. Alden Mason, curator of the American .section of the museum, the drat group of mounds to•'be excavated Was found in 1918 when W. B. Van Vella," a research worker in anthropology, 'discovered - mounds that contained structures le- sembling houses,some being 18. by 45 feet, built of driftwood with ceil- ings Of logs. • A thick covering of sod has been placed over the roofs anl the walls and the skylights, which had been cut into each roof, liad been covered with seal or walrus slkihhs, Skelton re- mains of manypersons were• found, with some ea -which were found imple- ments and possessions of . daily life, including wooden drinking cups, ba-. leen vesselcontaining small pieces of seal flipper and blubber and three - pronged fish spears. Late last year, much of the ma- terial that a-terialthat had been brought here was transferred from the Museum to the Wistar Institute of Anatomy at the university and examined by Dr. Ales Hrdlicica of the National Museum at Washington. "Further examination by archaeol- ogists from the museum;" Dr. Mason said, "also revealed the objects to be typical of -a phase of ancient Eskimo culture scientifically called the 'Thule culture,' which had been very /well studied in the central Arctic regions, but not so well in Alaska. "Following these revelations, which form most important contributions to. Arctic archaeology, Dr. Hrdlicka made inquiries which disclosed that there 'remain a number of similar mounds near Point Barrow, but that the Eskimos, inspired by the knowl- edge that white men had become in- terested in the mounds, had begun to When yollr Children C It Castoria is a comfort When -Baby Is.

E.

Land and Sea Saturday Review .-(London): There can be no common denominator of power on Ialrti and sea, and the prob- lems of disarmament on one element and ,the other are entirely sepaut£e. France and her European Allies have thought it necessary to ]Seep up the system of conscription which we and 'America have discarded, and the European military system cannot be' brought into any sort of relationship between ours or America's. The views of France must inevitably govern the land armaments of the Continent and we can offer her no sort of induce- ment to ebange these, But at sea our interests coincide with those of Amer- ica, and (subject' to reserves on sub- marines) do not conflict with those •ot France. Obviously, therefore, on naval armaments we need 'rotworry about making aur formula acceptable to European conditions any ,more than France worries about making her mili- tary strength commensurate with ours or America's. The supreme ob- ject of our naval policy is to reach an agreement with America. That se. cured, France will not enter into com- petition; without that we shall inevi- tably drift into ruinous naval, eompe- tion with America and possibly into a quarrel, in naval policy we are not a European Power but a World Power.

Indeed they appear to have if -one so, although occasionally one reads such remarks as that there are larger mar- kets nearer' home.
