EXCAVATION BARS | HANPER ESEARCH i | Italian Rule to Keep Foreign Students Out Retarding - Archeological Work. BY BALPH V. D. MAGOFFIN, Ph.D., LL.D., Professor and Head of Depart- | ment of Classics, N. Y. U. ! In commenting on a question which | is asked more often than almost any other as to how and why of archeology investigation and its bearing upon ll\e‘ general fleld of classical study, there, seems to be an opportunity to set a; number of matters in a light where attention can be focused on them to| advantage. Great Britain, Prance and Germany have long maintained acheological schools in Rome and Athens. These schools are conducted under the aus- pices of national archeological and classical bodies, but their expenses are carried by the respective governments. The United States came into the for- eign field later, and when it did estab- lish schools in Athens and Rome it was at private, not governmental, initiative | and expense. Charles Eliot Norton of Harvard, who in 1879 founded and be- came the first president of the Arche- ological Institute of America, deserves much cerdit for recognizing the handi- cap under which our American classi- cists were as compared with those in the foreign schools, and for fathering and bringing about the establishment of an archeological school in Athens on a par | with those of the Continental nations. Later the institute established its second archeological school in Rome. Discoveries Made Possible. Greece and Italy have been most hos- pitable, and have granted to the foreign schools sites for excavation, It is due to that unselfish open-mindedness that the science of archeology rose so rapldly to the highest scholastic criteria of standing. To the opportunities thus af- forded are due the wonderful discoveries that have restored with absolute security the structure and bases of ancient classic civilization, the certainty that there was a Troy near the Dardanelles and a Mycenean civilization in Greece; that there existed a Hellenic culture in the Aegean Islands, a great Hittite em- pire in Asia Minor, a line of opulent and thriving cities along the north coast of Africa and, most startiing of all, a Minoan _civilization in the Island of Crete, that had as high a culture as Egypt and the dates of which went back almost as far. 1 Such in rapid resume are the most important of the results of archeological investigation by the scholars of Greece, TItaly, Great Britain, France, Germany and the United States. Our schools, rithough the youngest, have measured fully up to their opportnities. Italy Bars Foreign Excavators. Discovery and a reasonably immediate publication of the discoveries in Greece have outrun the production of both in Italy during the last 20 years. The rea- son for this is that Italy, after the suc- cessful termination of its war with Tur- key, some two decades ago, refused to continue excavation privileges in Italian territory to any but Italians. This has resulted, to be sure, in increasing the number and the scholastic efficiency of Ttalian archeologists, but it has forced the work in the Roman field to lag far behind that in the field of Hellenic in- vestigation. ‘There are many sites in Italian terri- tory that await both men and money, ‘but the harder the Italian archeologists are put to it to keep abreast of the actual digging the farther behind will log the adequate publication, which is necessary to allow the critical compari- sons that the modern science of arch- eology requires. Classical archeology is an international science, and the possi- bility of investigation should be made as free and the prosecution of it as rapid as properly controlled supervision will allow. It is to_be hoped that the Italian government “will recognize the dmmense value of international assist- ance and will assign certain sites to the authorities of the officially recog- nized archeological foreign schools in Rome, retaining whatever priorities are equitable. Mutual Exchange Suggested. It could be hoped also that Italy would follow a custom of some other countries and sell or exchange, with museum guarantee of authenticity, du- plicate objects after the Italian mu- seum requirements were met. Such pro- cedure would help international amity as well as science. It would result in more rather than fewer visits to the museums of the countries of original provenience of archeological objects. Best of all, it would result in putting a fairly effective stop to the selling of faked antiquities. A further result would be the estab- lishment of a properly authorized and recognized international clearing house for the mutual exchange of duplicate antiquities, such a clearing house to have headquarters probably in New York, as the Archeological Institute of America has already suggested itself as being qualified to be. YOUNG BRIDE FOUND SLAIN IN THICKET Husband One of Searching Party That Finds Victim of Tragedy. By the Associated Press. GREENBURGH, N. Y., September 28. »=The body of Mrs. Elsa Marshall, 24, @ bride of three months, who had been shot to death, was found yesterday in the underbrush off a lonely Westchester road. A searching party, which included the woman's husband, George, found the body. She had disappeared earlier in the day from the home of Henry Kelly, ir.. Elmsford produce dealer, who em- ployed her and her husband as serv- ants. Two colored laborers who were work- ing in the vicinity of the spot where the body was found told police they had seen another colored man emerging from the underbrush carrying a shot- gun. The thicket that revealed the body is about three miles from the place where the body of Mrs. Dorothy Peacox was discovered last Spring. DISCUSS AMERICAN PACT.| Mexicans Hold Secret Senate Ses- sion to Consider U. S. Relations. By Cable to The Star. MEXICO CITY, September 28.—At a secret session of the Senate held Tuesday the oft-proposed treaty of amity in commerce between the United States and Mexico was revived by & reading of a repart on the subject by the foreign relations committee. No further information of the result of the deliberations has been made pub- Me. It is unofficially stated that the treaty was brought up in connection with the proposed American tariff in- creases as they affect Mexico, which have been made a subject of diplo- matic complaint by the Mexican em- bassy at Washington. There has -been nothing to indicate whether the trend of the discussions has been favorable or not to the renewal of negotiations on the treaty. o Airplane service has been inaugurated htw‘?;n the Magdalena River in port of rranca and Hucramanga, in the inte- zr of Colombia, 5 | opens into a large 'size bed, with Sale of Egyptian Sheets | ing cotton—without a trace of starch or dressing!
