Weigall. noted author and Egyptologist, in London, recalls the series of misfortunes that overtook many who were connected with the Howard Carter Expedition which opened the tomb of King Tutankhamen, at Luxor. Egypt, mors than a decade ago. Superstitious Britons say the savant's death, is proof that the corse, placed by the ancient Pharaoh on defilers of his tomb, is still work ing. While excavation work on the tomb was still in progress, Lord Carnarvon, financial backer of the expe dition, died -mysteriously. Soon after Carter was stricken, bat recovered. Then, The Hon. Reginald Wendell, Carnarvon s brother-in-law, died at the age of 29, and Lady Carnarvon was afflicted with a mysterious malady but recovered. Colonel Audrey Herbert, Carnarvon's half brother died and many ethers whose con nection with the nobleman was remote also suffered throoeh the strange spell. m v sue L Sale of city tax stamps for beer and wines will be resumed Friday when Salem's new liquor control ordinance becomes effective. City Recorder Mark Poulsen announced yesterday. The new beer stamps are in denominations of one-halt cent for pint bottles, one cent tor larger bottles, 30 cents for quar ter barrels and 55 cents for half barrels. Uncertain as to terms of the ordinance, Poulsen has not or dered any wine stamps, he said. Friday will bring not only a rush for tax stamps, city officials believe, but also for licenses un der the new ordinance. Police are not expected to enforce the licens ing provision until after next Mon day night's council session frhen licenses will be granted to dealers whose applications and bonds have been approved by the council 11- censa committee. Beer dealers apparently have disregarded the stamp tax under tho 1932 ordinance for eeveral weeks. The city recorder's ac counts show that none of these stamps have been sold since De cember 20.
