AS MUCH AN ASSET AS ARE DIAMONDS Value of Archaeology Stress- ed by Henry Balfour Johannesburg, Union of South Africa, Aug. 1--Prehistoric archae- ology is as valuable an asset to a country as gold and diamonds and other commercially-productive assets, said Henry Balfour, M.A, curator of Pitt Rivers Museum, Ox- ford, in his presidential address to the anthropology section of the British Association for the Ad- vancement of Science. Discussing South Africa's contri- bution to prehistoric .archaeology, Mr. Balfour said: 'This valuable archaeological mine has as yet been only partially exploited, but its po- tential wealth is unquestioned; and although prehistoric archaeology must rank as a 'pure' science ana cannot be regarded as one that in- creases the financial welfare of the community, the finds which its pur- suit brings to light must be regard- ed as a valuable asset to the coun- try worthy to be ranked with gold and diamonds and other commer- ctally-productive assets. The divi- dends resulting from the scientific exploration of the archaeological mine if not to be declared in pounds, shillings and pence are such as cannot fail to bring credit to the country. Kudos instead of cash--a not unworthy alternative! "Research into the past is sure- ly worthy of every encouragement from the universities and deserving of government benediction 'and even financial support," he con- cluded. "The material appears to be extraordinarily rich, almost in- exhaustible, in fact." BREWERY HEAD UNDER ARREST F. C. Cronin, Preston, Held for Alleged Violation of Michigan Blue Sky Act Galt, Ont., July 31--Information has been received here stating that Fred C. Cronin, until recently pres- ident of The Rock Springs Brew- ery at Preston, had ben arrested on charges of grand larceny by conversion and violation of the Michigan blue sky act, the charges being laid by Wm. Horath and Bert White, president and vice-president respectively of the company. Cronin and Jerome Hoffman, who was secretary, were to have attended a meeting of the airec- tors a week ago, when certain diffi- culties were to have been threshed out. Instead, they sent their resig- nations to the board. The larceny charge, it is alleged, results from a deal concerning the purchase of the brewery site, and in connection with the blue sky law violation. tI is said that 340,- 000 shares of stock in the brewery were sold to members of the Elks lodge in Detroit without first be- ing sanctioned by the Michigan Securities Commission. It is proposed to hold Cronin for the time being while a Detroit le- gal firm investigates his activities in Canada. It is stated more seri- ous charges may follow.
