Antcmito, Colo.. Dec.. 30,
Residents of the Caqulin communi
ty of Spanish Americans are labor
ing under much suppressed excite
ment as the result of the discovery
of the entrance to a cave thought
to be the cache of a fortune in gold
dust believed to have been hidden
there about two centuries ago by
Spanish or French explorers who
were later exterminated by savage
Indian tribes of that day.
The cave entrance was discovered
bv a sheep herder whos° staff when j
thrust heavily into a hillside to as
sist his progress, suddenly sliDped
thru the earth and disapoeared.
An examination disclosed an old
tunnel which led to a cave ro<'m
about 15 feet square Evidence of
habitation in the wav of charred
embers and old cans were di■’cover
ed there, it is stated, a^d a t -nn'l
entrance blocked off with stones is
believed to lend to h-dden treasure
vaults deeper in the mountain side.
Adolph Gallejos. wealthy resident
of that district, immediately staked
put a mb”ins claim on the site of
the cave and recorded it with the
county clerk at Con'joe He i
pia nning to employ men to open up
n"d explore the cave in a systemat
ic way.
Various enterprises have been or
ganized thruout this section during |
the past 50 years to search for the
reputed hidden wealth left oy the
early explorers. Large sums nave
been expended in these searches i
but not until this time have the
treasure hunters found really prom
ising fields to explore.

WASHINGTON, Doc., 31, UP)—
Aircraft engine designers of the
whole {world are too greatly influ
enced by military requirements,
says F. Gosslau, German research
specialist, in a report to the Naval
Advisory Committee for Aeronau
tics.
“Commercial aviation is suffering
because it is compelled to use very
light high-powered engines whose
! structural parts are too highly
| stressed,” he said,
j “There is no reason for joining
in the pursuit after extreme light
ness which leads to more forced
landings than commercial aviation
can continue to tolerate.”
