Hut Dr. George 1,. Collie, Beloit
College anthropologist and -teacher of
Andrews when he was in college
here, who has just returned from
digging in southern Europe nhd in
Africa, believes both other scientists
are wrong. He holds man originated
in Africa, where the Frnnco-Bcloit
exploring expedition, headed by Alon

dences of prehistoric origins.
Mr. Andrews is quoted in a San

known human beings who lived 20,-
000 years ago.”
Dr. Collie insists there have.been
human beings on the planet for 100,-
000, possibly 150.000 years. Proofs
that man has inhabited the earth
that long are contained in the Logan
Museum here, Dr. Collie say- They
consist of a number of stone articles
of the Chellean period, cone-shaped
and flaked on tho edges.

0. Max Gardner Speaks in Greensboro
Greensboro, Nov. 11 .—(A 3 )—“We
must all move, but we must move to
gether, as no progress which does not
lift all ever permanently lifts any,"
declared O.'Max Gardner, of Shelby,
former Lieutenant Governor of North
Curolina, in addressing a large audi
ence at'Armistice Day exert ises, con
cluded in the National Theatre under
the auspices of Henry K. Burtner
Post No. 53/ .American Legion. Mr.
Gardner was introduced by John Hall
Manning, of Raleigh.
Mr. Gardner declared that "the
boasted scepter and crown of a free
people is the untrammeled ballot, and
“I am convinced that the time has
come in our state when we should
stund abreast of our sister common
wealths and offer to the 1 electorate of
North Carolina a •secret ballot in con
formity with the Australian law."
Continuing Mr. Gardner said “My
feeling is that we should maintain an
election law so fa r and free ind just
that It tHU secure beyond the shad
ow of a doubt, unchallenged expres
sion of popular will. I will therefore,
urge the American Legion to throw
the weight of its powerful influence to
the enactment by our General As
sembly of the Australian ballot."
“If it were right to cuter a world
war for the safety of America and
the preservation of civilization, I ask
in good fa thjwhy it is not now right
for us to enter into some contract of
WQrld eovennnt in order to gnrner the
fruits of your victory and forever out
law national and international mur
der,” Mr. Gardner asserted, adding
“I was for Wilson with the league of
nations; I am likewise with Coolidge.
for the world-court.”
"There must be no reduction in the
potential horsepower of our e,ngine. bat
the machinery of progress must have
definite control as well as great power.
We are running North Carolina with
one foot on the accelerator and the
other in close proximity to the
brakes.’) _
Mr Gardner paid tribute to the
memory of the Legionaires comrades
who “went West," saying “men who
not for fame or reward, rank or
flower, but hi simple obedience to
duty as they understood it, suffered
all, sacrificed all, dared all, aud died."

N. C. Senators Take Interest in Pro

Salisbury Post, 10th.
Senator Lee S. Overman has sent
the following telegram to Senator F.

"Delegations from Mount Airy,

it on government maps, and which
meeting was attended by a delegation

adopted to the effect that Senator Ov
. enuan be asked to request Secretary
Jardine of the agricultural departi
; merit, and who is also at the head of
the federal roads bureau, to withhold
final action on this federal load
across North Carolina until the cities
along the proposed route c mid present
their case to the North Carolina high

the federal government to designate it
on maps along with the route already

In reply to Senator Overman’s mes
sage Senator Siimpons lias wired the

the message to Secretary Jardine and
made an appointment for a conference
with the secretary for today.
A Washington special says that
Senator Simmons had understood that
it was not necessary to hold up the ap

tentatively adopted, but that consider
ation could be given to applications
for new routs without interference
with prompt action in the approval of

Those who are taking interest in
this road proposition and who are

Washington. Nov. 11.—OP)—A se
vere winter for the Cnited States
with heavy snowfall and long contin
uing odd waves broken by warm pe
riods of brief duration is predicted by
Herbert J. Browne, widely known
ocean meteorologist.
An abnormal condition, lie holds. I
is pointed to by many factors, includ
ing the record breaking cold in many
sections of t’.ie country this fall, be
ginning with the first snows in the
northwest on September 18th, four
days before the official close of sum
mer. The winter.-he believes.• will
be followed by a late spring.
Primarily the predictions are based
upon a study of ocean surface tem
peratures. as determined by the
amount r.f the sun's heat reaching the
earth. This solar radiation for more
titan three years das been below nor- 1
mal. The present winter situation, j
he says, indicates that the world is
facing a condition which will inter
fere seriously %ith crops, the cold i
fall and winter in prospect being but !
forerunners of the next two years. A
serious situation developing in the
southern hemisphere in the crop year
of 1 Dili! to 1927. and the northern
’hemispheric in 1927 is predicted.
