NEW YORK, Jan. 30.—Gothamites
may soon return to their original sta
tus—cleft dwellers.
Sounds like a joke? It. isn’s.
For, with the Governors Housing
Commission declaring crowding ex
ists in New York today as it never
, existed in world history before—3,000
11
. persons in one city block—and with
the State Plinning Commission estim
| ating the growth of the greater city
i at 10 000,000 by 1934, comes:
Reginald Pelham Bolton, authority
| on Indian lore, and says:
j “For $2,000 spent in repairs any
; Manhattanite can find himself an A-l,
I first-class, rightup-to-the-minute pre
i historic, dwelling right in the heart
: of town.”
Bolton will take the prospective te
nant out to Inwood Hill section—a
1 few hundred feet off Broadway.
I There on the rugged sides of the
island’s rocky cliffs, can still be seen
the dwellings of the prehistoric cliff
dwellers, just as they were before the
arrival of the early Dutch.
Bolton advocates the bringing of a
hundred Indians—the descendants of
the Delawares, now scattered through
Oklahoma—for tenants here.
He favors fixing up the old cliff ap
artments for these Indians in the
heart of the metropolis just as a touch
of color.
Bolton, exploring in the cave ruins
of the city, has found many interest
ing things.
“New York women did not origin
ate the fashion of wearing furs in Au
gust?” he said. “The Indians of New
York, wore furs all year around.
• Neither did the modern women of
Manhattan think up the idea of paint
ing her cheeks an Autumn sunset.
The Indians were lavish with their
face paint—red was the favorite col
or.”
Bolton says the first settlers of Man
hattan were just like the present
group—“lobster eaters.”
He has found in their ruins the
, cooked carbons of lobsters by the
score. Oysters were another plenti
ful food.
There is scarcely a New Yorker who
knows that the cliff dwellings can
be seen right on his own little island.
They don’t have to go to the San Juan
Valley of Colorado or into Mexico to
enjoy such a scene, Bolton points out.
LONGER TERM FAVORED
FOR THE PRESIDENT
AKRON, O., Jan. 30.--Senator Os
car W. Underwood of Alabama, avow
ed candidate for the presidential no
mination of the Democratic party,
spoke before a large audience in this
city last night on the issues of the
campaign. This was the second pre
pared speech which Underwood has
delivered in his canvas. He advocat
ed changing the term of office of the
president from four years as at pres
ent to either six or seven years, with
a constitutional amendment prohibit
ing a second term. Underwood was
well received by his listeners and his
remarks were frequently interrupted
by applause.

Labor Party Will Not Press Extreme
Articles of Labor Party,
Says MacDonald.
RUSSIAN POLICY IS DOOMED
“God Save the King,” Not Sung At
Party Meeting
LONDON, Jan. 30.—Ramsey Mac
Donald’s address in Albert hall last
night, in which he informed his lab
orite compatriots and through them
the nation at large, that if he should
be made premier, his policy would be
one of peace at home and abroad, is
interpreted as indicating that the la
bor party will proceed conservative-:
ly and slowly, with no inclination to
press the extreme articles of the labor
platform.
The meeting was a serious affair i
even though the audience loudly sang
I “The Red Flag’ ’and failed Vo sing
“God Save the King.” The speakers
made few remarks that could be hail
ed as radical and gave every indica
! tion that the party for sometime con
i sidered as Great Britain’s revolution
' ary faction, did not intend to make
drastic changes.
The only opportunity for a demon
| stration by theradicals with Russian
learning came when Mr. MacDonald
said that one of the first acts of lab
or would be to end the pompous fol
| ly of aloffness. Scattered shout of
approval burst from widely separated
sections of the crowd, but it was no
1 thing to compare with the ovation
! later accorded Margaret Bonfield, a
! frail little woman, whose voice car
( ried to the loftiest gallaries of the big
j building. She seemed to touch the
! hearts of the whole audience and ev
1 erybody there joined in applauding
I her simple recitation of the story ot
j ‘a man named Jesus,’ ’whose creed
j was the brotherhood of man. The la
| bor party, she said, wanted to walk
in his footsteps.
From the expected flood of lobby
rumors to which the first meeting ol
thenew parliament gave rise, there e
merged reports involving the three
parties. One of these says that a sec
| tion of the conservatives is disgrun
j tied at what is regarded as Mr. Bald
win’s hasty and mistaken action in
precipiating an election, thus losing
the conservative majority.
