To the Editor of the NoerH-CHina DAtLy News."
Sim—It is refreshing to read the articles headed "The Peking Man' appearing in your issue of August 9. 1929, the more so, since it helps to confirm my 1914 discovery that Chinese Turkestan (Sinkiang basin), the locality between the Tienshan and Kuenlun mountains, is the cradle of the human race and. the "Garden of Eden" of Genesis of the Bible, and which is supported and proved by my 27 supplementary pamphlets and special articles, published between the years 1915' and 1926, My discovery is the result of years of patient research work in connection with the study of ancient Chinese historical records, Genesis of the Bible, the geological condi tions of the different continents, and the reports of explorers and archeologists. And, it was the in-study of the geological con-Gitions of the different continents and the origin of the world's big loess deposits, which confirmed me in my discovery of the great upheaval of Central Asia and the subsidence of a large mass of continental land in the Pacific Ocean, and my belief that the solution of all existing scientific and geological riddles is centred in the fact that the flooding of all the different continents of the world by a tidal wave was caused by this great upheaval and subsidence of land.
And it is this great upheaval and subsidence of land which is responsible for the "changes" (shifting of the polar regions) which have taken place in the Arctic regions, and the erroneous belief in four "Ice Ages," which are, in fact, climatic changes due to the sudden advance and retreat of the Arctic cold. which affected North America, northern Asia andthe north of Europe.
Now, after waiting for sixteen years, it is most gratifying to know' that scientists are beginning to confirm my discoveries and findings.
The finding, of two human molar teeth formed the first clue to the hunt for primitive man in Asia. and they were found as the result of investigations made in the first place by Dr. J. G. Andersen, Swedish adviser to the Chinese Geological Survey in 1926, at a place called Choukoutien, southwest of Peking.
The second and most important discovery of parts of skeletons, including several jaws and teeth, a brain case and other bones (Eolit or "dawn stone age" by Dr. Li and Dr. of the Chinese Geological Survey in the fall of 1928.
Regarding these discoveries Dr. Amadeus W. Grabau, for 18 years Professor of Palaeontology at the University of Columbia and widely mown as one of the greatest living authorities "on the" subject, has! expressed himself as follows:—eps is the most important find of early human remains yet made."
In support of this view he gave the following five reasons:—vat' found by acleatifeallf trained The "Peking Man' snctoal
