Representative Wood Urges Curtail-
ment Of Work.

Inauguration of a survey to reduce
the number of independent establish
ments in the Government and placing
of all the independent bureaus under
the control Of members of the cabinet
is advocated by Representative Will
liam r. Wood, member of the House
appropriations committee and chair
man of the Republican congressional
committee, in an article appearing in
the current number of the Nations
Business magazine-the publication OF
the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States.
Representative Wood believes if a
scientific survey could be made of the
"a independent bureaus. their working
forces could be materially reduced.
"They are constantly duplicating
work." he writes, land they are
mutually jealous. With such sur
vey of one or all of these establish
ments, just as a great business con-
Germ would do it to get rid of the
dead wood, we could reduce the num-
Der of employees still further by hun
dreds. if not thousands.

MANAGUA. Nicaragua. August
30.-With American marines and
sailors landed at Bluefields, the resi-
dents are rejoicing, as an attack on
the city by the revolutionary forces
was momentarily expected. The
Americans arrived at Bluefields Sat
urday morning on the cruiser Calves
ton, and came ashore in the after
noon. Bluefields Immediately was de-
clared a neutral zone, and both gov
eminent and Revolutionary leaders
were notified that all fighting must
be done outside the city. A further
order was issued that no arms could
be carried in the city.
Reports had been current that a
large revolutionary force was advanc-
ing on Bluefields, but it is expected
that the American action will delay
the forward movement, at least tenn
porarily.
The United States last August with
drew the guard of marines stationed
at Managua to protect the American
legation. as Nicaragua had been in
constant political turmoil. The ma
rines stood guard over the lives and
property of Americans in that coun-
try for 13 years.

of Nicaragua, after having ousted the
constitutional President, SolorZano,
now a resident of California, by
means of an armed coup, and then
began a series of rebellious move
ments against ChaniorrO.
Liberal revolutionists seized the
town of Bluefields last May, but were
obliged to withdraw when an Ameri-
can WarShip landed forces. Both
Bluefields and Ell Bluff were declared
to be neutral zones. and the loss of
these important centers doomed the
rebellion for the time being. The
marines withdrew after a months
stay.
The Liberal insurgents recently re-
newed their warfare against Chamor-
no, and the American Government or
dered two warships to proceed to
Bluefields and Corinto, respectively,
to protect American interests.

TRY TO BURN MILL
IN STRIKE TROUBLE
Crowds Throw Flaming Rags
Through Windows of Man.
viIIe-JenckeS Co.
BY the Associated Press.


MANVILLE, r. l.. August 30.-Ar
attempt to fire the cotton mill of the
Manville -Jenckes Co. here early to-
day was the climax of series of dis
orders prompted by the arrival OF
strikebreakers in armored cars yes
terday.
Hooting and jeering, a crowd OF
1 900 striking operatives and sympa
thizers gatheped outside the mill last
night after the strikebreakers had
been brought in with beds and stoves
and quartered in the mill.
The appearance of men in the win.
dows resulted i'll an avalanche of
stones and the destruction of scores
of panes before State and local police
restored order. The crowd re-as-
sembled 500 strong several hours
later and soon after midnight flaming
kerosene-sOaked rags were hurled
through the shattered windows. Po-
lice Chief Michael Finn of Cumber-
land stamped out the fire and made
an unsuccessful attempt to find those
responsible.
Threats to break down the mill
gates and go after their tools were
hurled by the strikers as the chief
made his way through the crowd, and
then another stone throwing brigade
of men and boys showered the oppo-
site side of the plant with missiles.
Chief Finn estimated the damage
would run to several hundred dollars.
The attempt was denounced by a
striker, speaking to a group Of idle
operatives. as a crazy stunt"
"Why burn the mill down." he
shouted. 1.-The Manville-Jenckes Co.
won't build a new one if you do.
They'll move down South
The strike was called August IS
when most of the LOO operatives
walked out in protest against the en-
ployment of non-union loom fiXers
and a reported lengthening of work
ing hours. In Woonsocket a sympa-
thetic strike was called by ! 900 oper-
atives of the Manville plant there.

CHAMPION ORATORS
|. THRILLED BY ALPS
Myrtle Posey of D. c. and
Others Greatly Enjoying
Prize Tour of Europe.

How Miss Myrtle Posey, Washing
tons champion orator, and the other
fnalists in the 1926 National Oratori-
cal Contest climbed the Swiss Alps
and had the most thrilling experience
in their lives, is recounted in a letter
received here today from Miss May
p. Bradshaw, dean of girls at Bust
ness High School and chaperon for
the party.
Wearing high rubbers and carrying
canes, the young orators made the
ascent in three stages, Miss Bradshaw
writes, and when they got to the top
they were given toboggan ride by
a Swiss mountaineer.
1.-The mountain sides were gay with
flowers continues Miss Bradshaw,
land the COW bells filled the air with
music. Each stop was full of inter
est, for the Swiss children in their
quaint costumes crowded around the
train offering edelweiss and the other
mountain blooms for sale.
1--WE have been more than lucky in
fine weather during our tour on the
continent, there being but two rainy
DAYS and one of these was spent on
the train.
Visit Milan Cathedral.
while in Milan we visited one of
the most beautiful Cathedrals in the
world and saw Da Vincis painting
The Last Supper From Bellagio, on
Lake Como, we visited the Villa Car
lotta, where the original Carnova
Cupid and Psyche adorns the
entrance hall. The garden of this typl-
cal Italian villa, which once belonged
to a German count who imported
plants from all parts of the world, is
marvelously beautiful.
THE next stop was at Lugano
Paradise on Lake Lugano. The
rides on 10th Como and Lugano are
ever to be remembered. The shores
of these lakes are lined with villas
and beautiful gardens, while on the
slopes above are vineyards ana
woods. A short distance from Stresa,
where a third stop on the lakes was
made, is the stately villa Isobella,
with it's terraced garden. from the
top of which the boys and girls had
a wide view of the lake"
