PRINCE RUPERT. B. C. Aug.
10. CP) A remote mystery
shrouded valley In British Colum
bia's interior may hold the an
swer to the question of North
America's prehistoric settle
ment. Luther W. Elder, a Prince Ru
Dert prospector, returned from a
field trip recently with tales of
crude stone houses in a valley
near Usk on the Copper river,
about 100 miles east of here.
The houses, Elder believes,
may have been dwellings of our
monkey-like ancestors who mov
ed across the frozen Siberian
wastes to settle In the warmer
climate.
Scientists' knowledge of the
Paleolithic age In North America
is slight. Up to now it has been
contended that the continent was
settled by Europeans from Russia.
Elder, who has prospected in
the Usk area for many years,
had never been In the valley be
fore. Residents of the district dis
claim any knowledge of the wild
territory.
The Paleolithic age la distin
guished by scientists aa an era
of flint tools and weapons when
the hairy, shambling ape-men
struggled for their existence
among strange, now extinct ani
mals. Scant details brought back by
Elder said nothing of any Imple
ments or other evidence of hu
man habitation.
Col. S. D. Johnston, local real
estate broker and former area
commandant of the Canadian
army here during the second
World War, plans a visit to the
valley In the near future to make
a more complete report on the
discovery.

Klan Leader Issues Edict Against Mask-Wearing
ATLANTA, Aug. 10. (.PV The
Ku Klux Klan's chief Monday is
sued an "imperial edict" against
mask-wearing about 36 hours
after south Georgia townsfolk
and robed night riders swapped
shots.
The order from Dr. Samuel
Green, Imperial Wizard, came
after the one-armed mayor of
Iron City, Ga., and some of his
friends opened fire on a Klan
motorcade.
To wind up the shcotir.g war,
the mayor chased a Klan official
into Alabama at a 100-mile per
hour pace and had him Jailed.
r. Green threatened members
of the sheeted order with banish
ment if they appear "on any
street, road or highway wearing
a mask or visor."
He said the edict was neces
sary because certain "unlawful i
acts have brought unlust crlll-!
cism against Klammen."
The Association of Georgia
Klans, which Green heads, has
been placed on the subversive
list of the VS. Department of
Justice.
Green denied any connection
between his organization and the
Iron City incident.
