I 18 MAJOR DEPRESSION COMING? O. A. Taylor, treasurer of S. H. Kress and Company, points out thirteen specific dangers of the undistributed profits tax: It Jeopardizes employment and prevents reemployment. It Is not a measure for raising substantial revenue. It violates every sound, established principle of taxation and conforms to none. It is Incapable of sound adinlulstrat ion It promotes monopolies, inasmuch as its burdens fall harder on the small, relatively poorly financed busi ness than on the large well-fluanced business with a ready market for securities and high credit standing. It encourages unsouud industrial financing. It discourages normal growth and expansion. It penalizes the payment of corporate debts. It Imposes penalties on those least able to pay. It tends to jeopardize the economic welfare of persons who have retired because of age or disability, and who are dependent upon income from savings, annuities or pensions. It thrusts the arm of government into every undertaking. It denies to youth the opportunities which should be left opeu. This is a strong series of Indict ments?but by no means exaggerated, and reflects the views of practically every recognized economist, industrial Journalist and executive In the conn try It is the general opinion?heard lately in congress, where there is a strong sentiment for tax reform?that repeal or radical revision of the undistributed profits tax would do more i than any other single act to check the current serious drop in industrial . production, earnings and employment. To put the problem realistically, it seems increasingly probable that this [ type of tax revision Is absolutely es. sentlal if we are to escape the new IJ major depression toward which the {country Is now moving A.

ATOM It thought to have been cut id the solid rock over 7.0O0 yo . ? ago was recently discovered iu miles south of Cairo, Egypt. Apparently robbed centuries ago by thieves who cut through two large slabs of stone guarding the eutrunco, It si til contained a bundle of arrows, and some symmetrical jars, probably put there for the benefit of the soul of the dead person, who Is believed to have been a nobleman. Modern "safe-crackers" have nothing on ancient Rg.vpiiun tomb robbers. They bad a system all their own. Ai Thebes the very men who dug the underground chambers for the dead and prepnred the sarcophagi for the royal mummies sometimes tunneled under the site. Thus they wore ready to break through the floor and the base of the sarcophagus and so withdraw the mummy and Its Jewels. The upper surfaces of the royal sepulcher would give no hint that the body had been taken away. A tomb that survived 33 centuries of grave robberies was that of Tutankhamen, hewn In the limestone cllft's near Luxor, Kgy pt. When ofllclally opened In February, III'-'.'?. It still contained the king's muinmy, sarcophagus, rich cofllns, and numerous art objects. The antechamber alone contained H'?7 articles of Importance. It Is unlikely that the comparatively small tomb ttsclf will have more than n passing Interest ; but the rich store of rare and valuable furniture with which the hiding place of Tutankhamen was packed contained such wonders from the distant past as have seldom been seen by modern man. Statues of the King. Facing each other across the entrance to the Inner chamber were two nearly life-size ttgures of the king, each stricken stiff by the artist and standing helpless In Its vain attempt to guard the royal tomb; a mace In one hand, leaf guard below the hand. The portions of these statues which represented skin were the dark, almost black, color which distinguishes the male figure from the female In Egyptian art. The headdresses, collarets, armlets, wristbands, maces, and staffs were glided and the snndnls were of gold. On each forehead was the royal cobra of Inlaid bronze and gold. The eye sockets and eyebrows were of gold, the eyeballs of aragonlte, and pupils of obsidian. In the antechamber with the statues were a large funerul bouquet, n linen chest filled with the king's undergarments, and a casket whose vaulted lid bore paintings depleting lion hunts. The sides of the latter were decorated with paintings showing the king In battles against African and Asiatic enemies. The contents consisted of the king's raiment. Most of the paraphernalia was badly crumpled and the fine fabrics bad almost perished. Well preserved, however, was a leojvard's head buckle found on one of the robes, and a golden scarab buckle. Finely wrought In silver and gold and iidaid with carnellan, lapis lazuli glass, and turquoise glass, the design of this buckle proclaimed the name of the king. The scarab, a member of the dung-beetle family, was much venernted In ancient Egypt, being sacred to the sun-god. In the tomb were alabaster vases filled with unguents. Though In the tomb of King Tutankhamen for 3,300 years, the unguents retained their perfume and became viscous In the sun. Some of the objects found In the tomb which Tutankhamen wished to use In the afterworld Included a stool made of solid ebony Inlaid with lvor>^ and mounted with gold. The feet of the stool represented ducks' heads, and the seat was Inlaid to represent an an- : I run I skin. The king's throne was covered with gold and silver and inlaid with send precious stones.

Thousand* of columns of newspaper space were devoted to it In every country. Never hefore In history had an arrheologlcal discovery so captured popular Interest. After the art objects had been removed /.i 1 - I and protected, the toiqb with Its RarI eophugus mid mummy was opened for visits hy the ptitdlc. I'rohaldy 100,000 visitors lit all had entered the toinh by January, l!)o4. Business men throughout the world pleaded for the right to u.:a these H,.'JOO year-old designs for gloves, Sandals. Jewelry, and textiles. One American silk manufacturer established a Hcholarflhlp1'f$r study of the designs. The Incomparable treasures from' Tutankhamen's tomb, whose salvage required years of arduous work, were exhibited In the Egyptian museum at Cairo, where they occupied several galleries in the crowded show house founded by Muriette l'asha. The ofllclnl opening of the Inner chamber of Tutankhamen's tomb was on February IS, 102.8, The queen of the Belgians was the honor guest. A staff correspondent of the National Geographic society describes the event. On February 17, he arrived in Luxor, crossed the river and started on foot for the Tombs of the Kings. Plodding along on font he exchanged Arabic salutations with the white-toothed village girls, felt the African sun on his hack, and watched the camels stalk hy on their way to the cane fields. On the Way to the Tomb. | The morning freshness was still In I the air. Clangs of prisoners were grading and watering the road which Ilcr Majesty Queen Elizabeth of Belgium would use mi the morrow, when she came to pay the first royal visit to Tutankhamen In more than thirty centuries. But the correspondent did not keep to the winding way. made smooth for automobiles, which glide like a chalk-white serpennt between the tawny hills. Beyond the green fields he 8uw the Colossi of Meiunon and made for them. lie wanted to pass the many lesser gaping tomb-mouths before he finally came to the royal tombs behind the limestone ridge. As the correspondent passed through ~a?mud--walled village, with Its narrow, nlleya almost black under that hot light which lacks reflective power, a girl of ten or so stopped stripping sugar cane with her gleaming teeth to wish that his day be blessed and to offer to share her store. The noonday Run was hot and getting hotter. He shouldered his heavy camera and started up the steep path. Thus should one approach that hellhole in the hills where the greatest of. Pharaohs hid themselves and where not more than two or three still lie undisturbed by modern man. As he passed the tomb of Setl I and turned toward the lower entrance of the valley. he saw below him a small white tent, a wooden shelter for the armed guard, the clutter of lumber which | nrcheologlsts use. and the new wall of i Irregular stones which hid the entrance , of Tutankhamen's mausoleum. This suJ perheated graveyard, which was to become a picnic ground and levee for I royalty on the morrow, was a silent I place. Correspondents waiting about ! for news spoke in whiskers. though | the secrets of the spot would he violated hy loud talk. Official Opining a Spectacle. , Early the next day the correspondent rode out again to the scene. The stage was nil set for the big event of ' the day, the otllcinl opening. As the i day grew hot, small companies of visitors arrived; hut there had been no attempt to make this a popular holiday and the crowd never numbered more than 200. About noon there arrived a squad of camels laden with food and drink for the distinguished guests.
