PAGE TWO THE JOURNAL-STANDARD, FREEPORT, ILLINOIS Indian Camp Found In West BY ART EVERETT New York, Sept. remains of a primitive group of hunters, who roamed the American west thousands of years before Christ's birth, have been unearthed near Cody, Wy.o., it was disclosed today. Dr. Loren Eiseley of the University of Pennsylvania said the Wyoming camp site probably dates back to between 5,000 and 12,000 years before Christ. He called the find one of the most important ever made in connection with the culture of the Yuma, the nomadic group who disappeared centuries ago as a cultural unit.

They were among the earliest known inhabitants of the new world. Located On Terrace Dr. Eiseley estimated that the ancient camp site covered about 600 square feet of a terrace overhanging Sage creek, five miles northeast of Cody.

The Yuma were foot hunters who roved the high plains of the Ameri can west in search of bison. Evidences of their existence have been found before, Dr. Elseley said, but never so extensively or in a deposit that may enable scientists to fix more accurately the period in which they lived. May Date Bisons For example, he said, from the bison bones on the site it may be possible to determine whether the Yuma lived before certain types of bison became extinct late in the ice age. No human bones were found, Dr Elseley said.

The Yuma roamed the same general areas as the Polsom man, who it is believed lived about 15,000 years ago. Dr. Elseley said the Cody site again reveals clearly that the Yuma and the Polsom cultures were distinct. An expedition began its work on the Cody site last Aug. 5 under the direction of Dr.

Glenn Jepsen, professor of geology at Princeton university. Princeton sponsored the exploration. Dr. Etseley was called in by Dr. Jepsen to assist.

He called the Cody campsite "a find for which I have been waiting 20 years." The Yuma "were one of the two or three earliest known horizons in the new world," he The campsite first was discovered some years ago by James Allen, a Cody collector and retired businessman. He was hunting arrow heads when he found Yuma materials exposed by erosion of the soil. He informed Dr. Jepsen of the find. New G.

Marvin F. Carpenter divided his farm into village lots in the early days, making the town of Stockton possible. After living on various farms in this vicinity, he built his house of lumber hauled by horses from Nora. A portion of the home was built before the Chicago Great Western railroad came through Stockton in 1888. In 1903, the other part of the house was added.

Unharmed By Fire In the big Stockton fire of 1895, the house which was situated only a block from the demolished business district was unharmed. At one time it was thought that this town would be called Carpentervllle, when the 160-acre farm was divided into lots and sold at reasonable rates to early settlers. Carpenter, who was president of the board of trustees in early days, loaned the money needed for the purchase of Ladies' Union cemetery. He was active in all civic affairs in the village. Many older residents of Stockton have expressed regret to see the early landmark being destroyed, but realize it is one of the steps necessary in the growth of Stockton.

The Marvin Carpenter home at Stockton which is being razed is one of the oldest homes in the area. of it was built In 1888 before the railroad came through Stock-ton. A modern bowling alley will occupy its place. Radio Programs FM Listening me. W1BA 101.o ma me.

HERE'S THE REASON WETS' ASBESTOS DOESN'T BUK-IST When a thing burns some of the elements in it unite with oxygen.

Wood, for example, consists largely of carbon and hydrogen and when wood burns these combine with oxygen from the air to form carbon dioxide and water. In asbestos, the elements of which it is made such as magnesium, silicon and calcium, are already united with all the oxygen they can easily hold, so it does not burn.

The house and senate have agreed on that.

But they haven't agreed on exactly what changes to make in it. They've passed two different bills, agreeing to some changes in the present law, disagreeing on others. Now a committee of senators and representatives must compromise their differences in a single bill. Then that must be approved by the full house and senate. The approval is pretty certain.

Not until then, though, will the law be changed. Until then it's impossible to say precisely what the new law will be. Therefore, this can be only a sketchy explanation. Was 40-Cent Minimum Under the wage-hour law, passed in 1938, workers employed by firms doing business across state with some now: 1. Get paid no less than 40 cents an hour.

That's the minimum wage they can get. That's why this is sometimes called the minimum wage law. Get pay for every hour worked over 40 hours. This was the law that established the 40-hour week for businesses in interstate commerce. (The law passed in 1938 specifically said it did not apply to some types of businesses and their em- ployes', even though their products went across state lines.

They were exempt. The law applies only to "covered" businesses and employ- i es. Farmers Exempt (An example of an exempt business: farming and fisheries.) One big change the house and senate agreed that reason it will be the new this: the minimum wage for covered em- ployes must be raised from 40 cents an hour to 75 cents. About 22,600,000 workers are covered by the present law. But so many of them already make 75 cents an hour or more than only about 1,500,000 will benefit by the boost in the minimum wage.

President Truman wanted more than the 22,600,000 covered by the changed law. Congress thought otherwise. The house bill knocks about 1,005,000 from under the law's protection. The senate bill knocks out about 200,000. Somewhere Between So the total number who'll lose coverage under the law, when congress finally agrees, will be somewhere between 200,000 and 1,005,000.

Under both the present and proposed law no business is "covered" if its trade is done entirely wtlhin a state. And not all businesses that do trade across state lines are covered. For example: A retail outlet like a restaurant, barbershop, beauty shop or shoe repair shop is not affected by the law if its business is entirely within a state. And the present law doesn't apply to them even if they do some business across state lines, provided it's less than 50 per cent of their business. The proposed changes in the law wouldn't change that for them.

Applies To Chain The same thing applies to chain stores. But then comes the case' of a business like a laundry. (There's no room here to go into all details of the different business-! es affected.) Under the present law a laundry is not 75 per cent of its work is done for homes. For example: 75 per cent of Its work is laundering for homes, while the; other 25 per cent is commercial laundering, such as for hotels. But house and senate agree on change will be part of the amended law.

The changed law will work like this: Laundries which do home or commercial work, no matter what percentage of commercial work, are exempt from the law. The only laundries which still would be covered are these: ones that do more than 25 per cent of their work for Industries, like railroads or factories.

Cracks Down On 'Fly-By-Night' Schools For Vets Washington, Sept. 2. The Veterans administration' cracked down today on all training schools established just to.attract the ex- G.I. trade. It said in a policy statement that "schools must now be in operation on their own for at least a year before they accept veteran-enrollees at government expense" under the O.I.

bill of rights. This means, VA said, "that unless the one-year minimum is met, veterans beginning training in such schools may not receive subsistence allowances." V.A.'s statement skirted all allegations that its order was directed against fly-by-night schools which have come into existence recently in the hopes of getting the government's dollar for veteran's training But one veterans' source summed it up this way: "Since the Q.l. bill became law, training schools have mushroomed Many are legitimate training schools; some are rackets set up for WESTINGHOUSE Electric Roasters Broiler Frtt with RoaUer FREEPORT HDWE.
