Havana, April 14.-Cuba today re-
ceived Secretary Of State Knox with
official friendliness, but without any
thing in the nature of a popular dem
onstration. despite the fact that he
represented the country which gave its
blood and treasure for Cuban liberty.
1t was the first time in nearly two
months that the Knox party was not
greeted by the red, white and blue on
landing from the cruiser Washington
There was no music, no guard of honor
no enthusiasm, no soldiers lined the
streets and the only American flag flew
over the American Club.
In a speech at a dinner given by
Secretary of the Interior Machado
Knox spoke of the disinterested pur-
pose of the United States toward Cuba
and at the same time warned Cubans
against permitting the government tc
fall into the hands of those who would
exploit it for selfish ends.
