Closer Relations Between
U. S. and Soviets Will
Permit Exploration of
Vast Geological Lockbox
KMED
Broadcast Schedule
By HOMER M'COY.
NEW-YORK, Oct. 36. (AP) To
ward Russia, laoratory of political
precepts. Dr. Roy Chapman Andrews1
Is turning a scientific eye on the the
ory that It may be tfte cradle of
mankind.
In the closer fraternity that la now
developing between the United States
and the soviet government, as evi
denced by the impending discussions
between President Roosevelt and
Foreign Commissar Lltvlnoff, Dr. An
drews see a scientific reapproach
ment that may make more accessible
for exploration a vast lockbox of ge
ological secrets.
Its a Huge Pie.
Dr. Andrews, geologist, paleontolo
gist, zoologist, explorer of the ends
of the earth, finder of dinosaur eggs
that failed to hatch millions of years
ago, today told of what he hopes to
find somewhere In the soviet union's
Asiatic territory.
It's a huge pie, he said, and thus
far only the edges have been nibbled.
His expeditions Into the Gobi desert
amoUnted merely to casual peeps In
to what he considers humanity's
North of Mongolia and Into Siberia,
east and Into Russian Turkes-
tan, may be burled some chapters of
the story of the rocks.
Soviet to Aid.
Dr. Andrews has made no Immedi
ate plans for a scientific foray Into
this region, largely because of the re
trenchment program under which
the American Museum of. Natural
history Is operating. But when he Is
ready, he has the assurance that the
Soviet's scientists will cooperate fully-
"Last summer I conferred with of
ficials of the Russian Academy of
Science was gratified to learn how
willing they were to assist in any
work I might undertake there. They
have a keen interest in science, both
pure and applied."
He explained Asiatic Russia's Im
portance In the search for pre-his-
toric knowledge.
Asia Once Center.
All roads once led from the Interior
of Asia, millions of yeares before they
converged on Rome. Many things
began there, it is his theory; then
they moved out.
The huge reptiles, the mammals
that followed them, finally man, fol
lowed definite patfis of migration,
one west and south to Europe, the
other up through what is now Si
beria and Into North America, across
the overland passage once thought
to have existed between the two con
tents. ,
No one has followed that path
carefully in search of what priml
tlve man left behind .him, he said.
For example, the mystery of what
happened to the dunes-people might
be solved along the Siberian trail.
Only yesterday, geologically speaking
-about 20,000.000 years the dunes-
people Inhabited Mongolia.
No Fossils Found.
No fossils of the race have been
found, only their implements.
"What happened to them?" asked
Dr. Andrews. "They couldn't have
simply vanished. They probably
moved north and east, and If we
follow their ancient route ve may
find out."
Then, there is the missing link In
the evolution of the horse. Paleon
tologists have traced the horse from
Eohlppus, a small, four-toed animal,

tlona, they found these were not
under civil service, the experienced
employee had no priority and ap
pointments degenerated largely Into
political positions. And the veteran
who qualified under the civil service
find their Jobs snatched from them
through consolidation. Through a
gigantic plan of taking one bureau
out of one department and placing It
In another, those- In the older bu
reau were completely eliminated, lost
their accumulation of leave and oth
er advantages as' their Jobs were
abolished.
Claude Babcock, past commander
of the D. A. V.. who has Just as
sumed his duties as president of the
American Federation of Government
Employees, affiliated with the Amer
ican Federation of Labor, Is the
spearhead of the attack on the pres
ent conditions, and is aggressively
carrying the fight to the government
departments and even to the White
ouse. It Is being openly charged
that the "spoils system Is supplanting
the merit system through chicanery."
And unless public criticism forces
the present administration to chance
its sttltude we will carry it to the
coming session of congress. But In
the meantime the D. A. V. Intends
to let it be known that It Is fully
aware of what Is going on to the
detriment of veterans and Intends to
be In the forefront of the fight to
compel admission of the civil service
or so change conditions that the
present lawa be respected without
evasion.

effect upon the federal government

Everyone of the provisions of the
executive orders which have been is
sued by the president to the federal
civil service commission in the past,
providing for preferences as to civil
service examinations, appointments,
promotions, and retention of employ-
ment of disabled ex-service men,
were originally proposed and spon
sored by the D. A. V.
Commander McQueen's meetings
are called at a time when large num

their Jobs. Many were forced off
