"For the purpose of stimulating In

thousands of exquisite full-color re

All motorists may obtain these
pictures by asking for them at any
Standard station or Standard OH
dealer In the state of Oregon.
The pictures themselves are en
tirely new and taken especially for
this distribution. Each picture was
made on a special trip by a crew,
Including an expert cameraman to
handle the technical side, and an
art director to select the finest pos
sible view, and the natural and ar
tistic values thus obtained have been
preserved by the most modern pro
osas of photo-llthoghaphis repro
duction. Each picture Is contained hi
a large envelope, protecting It from
any possible handling, and Is suit
able for framing.
"We expect that many of these pic
tures will find their permanent places
In Oregon homes, popular meeting
places, community centers, lodge
halls, and wherever decoration of nils
kind Is In order and appreciated,-'
aeJd Mr. Hathaway. "Our company
has spared no effort or expense to
make them worthy representatives of
Oregon's most beautiful localities.
The first picture, which will be dis
tributed beginning Monday, is a new,
full-color view of Crater Lake, show
ing not only the lake Itself, but the
distant snow-clad peaks and a mot?
nitlcent cloud effect. It will be fol
lowed by others at regular Intervals.
"While the total number of pic
tures goes into hundreds of thou
sands, the supply of each issue Is
necessarily limited, and they will,
therefore, be given out to those who
first apply for them."

Pre - Historic Picture Writing
Same on Both Sides of Ocean
PITTSBURGH (UP) A boyish
penchant for collecting old Indian
relics has resulted In a discovery
which may ultimately prove that
prehistoric men who may have lived
15,000 years ago In America and
Europe were brothers under the skin.
G. S. Fisher, Flnleyvllle. Pa., arch
eolcglst, dressed in short trousers
when he first began poking around
old Indian mounds for flint knives,
beada and other odd objects peculiar
to early Indian civilization.
Although he has collected thou
sands of relics through the years,
he considers his discovery of the
skull of a crowned king of the Fort
Ancient period his most Important
disclosure.
The reason for this belief is that
the skull of a prehistoric man ex
cavated by Prof. R. J. Stlllwell of
Princeton in Oreece last year was
similar In many respects to the one
found by Fisher in an ancient earth
works near Elrama, Pa.
Moat important fact. Fisher be
lieves. Is that both skulls were adorn
ed with the same headdress, which
was composed of fresh water snail
which he was riding with sir other
youths crashed Into a tree .t Moore
park.
Andrew Bell, one of ttie other pas
sengers, sustained a broken hip and
the rest minor injuries.

shells which dangled ribbon-like over
the head. Fisher's discovery bore 624
shells, while that of Dr. Stlllwell was
mnde up of 714 shells.
Another of Fisher's discoveries is
that the prehistoric men who wan
dered around what Is now western
Pennsylvania spoke the same lang
uage as those who lived in Europe
during the same period. Picture writ
ing unearthed by Fisher corresponds
with the writing found by Dr. Still
well. This particular form of writing has
resisted effort of scientists to de
cipher it. Fisher believes that when
this Is accomplished, the vast un
known history of America's earliest
men will be recorded.
The Flnleyvllle archeologist Is as
sociated with the University of Mich
igan In his work.
During his life. Fisher has exca
vated more than 200 mounds and
earthworks. A few years ago he sold
his collection of 28,882 pieces for
$40,000. Since then. It has amassed
a sizeable collection of pottery", tools
and crude weapons. He believes that
western Pennsylvania Is one of the
richest fields for archeology In America.

ART INVENTORY
IN SPAIN LISTS
53 NEW GOYAS
All Works Are Catalogued
By Loyalists In Terri
tory Now Held Aim Is
To Keep Treasures Home
By Jan H. Vlmlrlch
United Press Staff Correspondent.
LONDON ( UP ) Amid the rain of
bombs and shells on Madrid, the last
edition of Goya's famous engravings
has been published, Don Tlmoteo
Rubto. director of the Junta Naclonal
del Tesaro Artlstlco, told the United
Press when he arrived in London to
arrange an exhibition ot vnem.
The edition comprises "Los Dcsaa
tres de la Guerra" (The Disasters of
the War), "La Tauromaqula" (The
Art of Bullfighting), "Los Caprlchos"
(The Caprices) and 100 hitherto un
published examples of the . famous
engraver's art.
Don Tlmoteo said the government
had decided that after the comple
tion of this edition the plates would
be returned to the archives and no
further edition will be published. The
reason, he explained, was that the
original plates were used and the
Issue of an edition meant a certain
amount of wear.
Art Inventory Made
The Spanlah government Is making
an Inventory of all the works of art
In loyalist Spain, Don Tlmoteo said.
Included In this catalogue will be
paintings and artistic objects which
for years have been hidden from pub
lic view In private houses. He de
clared that S3 new Goyaa already had
been discovered.
"The object of the catalogue," Don
Tlmoteo aald, "!i to prevent .Spain's
works of art from leaving the country.
The government does not take over
the artistic projects, but merely sees
that they are not sold for export.1
Asked what has happened to the-
priceless art treasures of Toledo, par
ticularly the famous Oreco painting
'The Burial of the Count of Orgax.
he said the work wa taken from the
church wall on which it waa hanging
and laid on the floor. Then It waa
covered with boards and sandbaga to
protect It from aerial bombs or shell
fire. The art treasures of Toledo,
however, fell Into the hands of the
Nationalist when General Francisco
Franco's troops captured the city.
Owners Refuse Protection
"What haa happened to them
since, I do not know," Don Tlmoteo
said. "I should like to hear that
Frt nco h aa appoi n ted some board
similar to ours for the protection of
art treasures In his territory. In the
early days of the war when we could
have taken valuable paintings and
works of. art out of threatened towns
and village and transported them to
Madrid, wa had to overcome the op
position of the owners and local
authorities, who refused to allow
them out of their care even though
It meant taking them to a safo place.
"Here U a case In point. When
Franco was marching on nilescas,
we found several works of art there
which we wished to take to Madrid.
The mayor opposed this, but finally
consented to pack them up and take
them to Madrid himself.
"He deposited them In a strong
box in the Bank of Spain and went
off with the key. We could not find
btm, so had to force the strong box.
We did so only Just In time. The
paintings were all but ruined, but
we managed to restore them."
Restoring paintings which hava
deteriorated through neglect is an
Important part of the Junta's work.
Don Tlmoteo displayed several pho
tographs of numerous paintings be
fore and after restoration.
