CASTRO TO HEAD
REVOLUTION? I?
May Take Advantage Of the
Dissatisfaction in Ven

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
sANTANDAR. Spain. May 4-Former
President Castro Of Venezuela has not
given up hope Of regaining his con-
troll Of that country. II is generally
believed here that his coming to this
city is but the preliminary move in his
plan for the return TO Venezuela TO
head a revolution there.
Ike is not expected TO try 70 get back
on any Of the regular liners. In
stead he is believed to have planned
to sail from Spain in small boat
under pretense that he is motor-boat-
ing for his health.
Then II his plans go right he can be
picked up by a tramp liner that will
have been chartered by him, and on
which he can be landed az a point
where he can join his friends in Vene-
zuela.
Tt is admitted by friends OF Castro
here that he has since his expulsion
from Martinique. received a number
of communications from Venezuela
and all agree that because OF the
course Of the party in power there now
the natives are recalling the Castrr
rule with regret.
The thing that is expected to inter.
fere with his plans is the opposition
of the United States government and
because Of this his destination and th'
identity of the boat that he charters
will be kept secret should his plan'
work out

DREADNAUGHTS
A GREAT WASTE?
Doubts Among British Naval

Value

LONDON, May ALIAS England wasted
hundreds Of millions Of dollars In the
construction Of the Dreadnaught type OF
battleshlps?
This Is the question that British naval
authorities are debating today as the re
suit OF the reported division Of opinion
among the members of the secret naval
commission as to whether the Lord Nell
son type Of battleship-the type that inn
mediately preceded the Dreadnaught is
not preferable to the latter
The commission was appointed prl-
marily to investigate tho charges made
by Admiral Lord Charles Beresford, late
commander of the channel fleet. that the
British navy was unfit for war.
II IS reliably reported today that the
commission has found that Beresford s
charge Of incompetency is not warran-
ted but It is giving serious consideration
TO the criticism Of the giant ships that
England has been building for the last
few years. and Of which "A are in COM
mission or nearing completion.
It is believed that the Dreadnaught al
vocates will eventually win out.
English Dreadnaughts nav IN coucss OF
construction represent a cost Of Si?5ooo.o 600
The decision against Admiral Beresforc
by the naval commission is the severesi
blow that this mostloved Of England''

was forced from his command Of the chan
mel feet. by the admiralty owing TO his
differences Of opinion with the admiralt,
regarding Englands naval policy. He
strongly hoped that the commission would

Holly Oak Association to Con-

Highway

The Holly Oak Improvement Associa-

bungalow Of ]. Allen Colby last night
decided to follow the action of the
recent meeting OF citizens Of east
Brandywine hundred, and instructed
the roads committee TO confer with Of
ficials of the Wilmington and Phila-
delphia Turnpike Company as 10 pro-
lection for the sides of the pike al
the Bellevue Quarries, where the road
has been raised.
The banks at this point are steep
and a frightened horse could easily
break through the two-cable line that
has been stretched across the road.
Two committees win thus wait upon
the company. the one from the east
Brandywine hundred residents and the
one from the Holly Oak Association.
The east Brandywine hundred COM
mittee has not been able TO meet the
officials of the company yet The
question of the right of the company
to collect tolls while the pike is being
repaired is to be decided in Court OF
General Sessions this term, the turn
pike company having taken certiorari
proceedings in appeal from a con-
demnation decree made by a jury OF
freeholders.
The meeting also directed the COM
mittee on roads to take up with the
Levy Court the question of improving
the bridge over Holly Oak creek. II
is claimed that the bridge is in bad
condition. The Levy Courtmen have
promised to view the bridge in the
near future prior to arranging for re-
