CHINESE HANG MILLSTONES ON U. S. EXPEDITION Roy Chapman Andrews and Aids Are Hampered by Society’s Demands. Bv Science Service NEW YORK. Oct. 3.—Responsibility for the interruption of the work of the American Museum of National History in Mongolia is laid at the door of a Chinese organization, the Society for the Preservation of Cultural Objects, by Dr. Henry Fairfield Osborn, president of the American museum, in a communication which will appear in the forthcoming issue of the scientific Journal, "Science.” The expeditions of the museum, of which the present was intended to be the seventh, have attracted world-wide attention because of their sensational discoveries of dinosaur eggs and fossils, and for their hope of finding the original home of the human race. The Chinese Society for the Preservation of Cultural Objects is not in any way an official body, but it possesses great influence and apparently has been able to bend officers of the Chinese government to ■lts will. Andrews Tells of Troubles Roy Chapman Andrews, leader of the American field party, describes much anti-foreign propaganda w r hich this organization has been carrying on through the press and other media, charging American and European scientific expeditions with “stealing China’s priceless treasures.” ‘infringing her sovereign rights." “seeking for oil and minerals.” ‘‘being spies against the government,” and so on. At the beginning of the 1929 season. Andrews states, the Chinese demanded joint participation in and control over the field expedition, retention In China of much of the material obtained, eventual return of all specimans sent to the United States for study, and payment by the American museum of all expenses for China experts to this country to carry on research in the museum. After prolonged negotiations in an endeavor to obtain a modification of these ‘demands, the American museum authorities decided to suspend operations.

Chinese Hamper Explorers The Chinese Society for the Preservation of Cultural Objects, Andrews charges, has Interfered with the transportation of specimens obtained by the expedition of a year ago, causing Chinese officials to hold them at, Kalgan for six weeks, and demanding certain concessions to the society before they were released. Dr. Osborn adds that through the active interest of the Chinese minister, Dr. Chao Chu Wu, and Secretary of State Stimson. the collection finally has been shipped and fliow is on the way to the American museum, after a delay of more than a year. . American scientists have not been alone in their molestation through the influence of this Chinese society. A large Swedish expedition, under the noted explorer. Sven Hedin, was forced to accept the addition of a group of Chinese to its personnel at Swedish expense, and to permit joint Chinese control. 134 ENROLL AT COLLEGE Physical Education Students Represent AH Parts of Nation.

Have That Footlight Sheen By Edna Wallace Hooper

To my audiences, my hair is of everlasting interest. It always looks alive and women admire its constant sheen. One of my “secrets” is mere cleanliness. The fascinating glow comes from the regular use of Wave and Sheen. I shampoo my hair once a week under ordinary circumstances. After it dries I comb" it and apply Wave and Sheen. Then I place my combs in the direction I wish the waves. (My hair is not curly.) You can get Wave and Sheen at any trliet counter. Your money refunded if you are not pleased with results. — Advertisement.
