What's behind the trouble the
United States is having in Nicaragua?
This question is being asked inside
and outside of Washington largely be-
cause the American Government is
unable for diplomatic reasons 10 come
out in the open and call d spade a
spade.
The truth is there is a drive on
against the United States throughout
Latin America, in which Mexico Is
taking. Leading part, and in this IN
stance Mexico has actively taken sides
and supported the revolutionary gov
eminent in Nicaragua for the evident
purpose of embarrassing the United
States. Evidence on this point has
been sufficient for the Washington
Government to deal firmly with the
situation in Nicaragua as d warning
against interference on the part of
Mexico.
The basic reason for the landing OF
marines in Nicaragua is the protection
OF lives and properties of American
citizens in accordance with interna-
IlOIld1 law. tlc DCpcli tAiShb VI eNN~NO

chairman of the Senate foreign re-
lations committee, is Directing to the
American Governments course be-
cause he believes the reVolutlonlsts
and the government against which
they are fighting should be permitted
to fight it out unmolested by Ameri-
can influence or force. The American
Government believes that in this
course lies great danger To American
interests. Apart from the lives or
Americans. which may be endangered
if the situation develops into pro-
longed revolution. the property IN
vestments involved are large.
Amount Of Money Invested.
The actual amount of money in
vested in Nicaragua by American cltl-
Zens to date. according to official hg-
ures available here. is approximately
SO. 800. 900, of which about $3.0OO.00O
is held in bonds in the United States.
The potential value Of the properties
owned by Americans in Nicaragua is,
according to the estimates of the own

lively placed at $40 100000. SO far

SHUT PITTSBURGH
BANK MAY REOPEN
Brotherhood Co., Closed
After Bond SWindIe, May
Be Reorganized.
BY the Associated Press.


PITTSBURGH, January S.--Reor
ganiZation of the Brotherhood Saw
ings & Trust Co. of Pittsburgh,
closed several months ago by the
Pennsylvania banking department,
was a possibility today following a
conference yesterday between Peter
G.. Cameron, State secretary Of bank
ing, and representatives of various
labor groups.
Affairs of the bank were taken over
by the banking department last DC
tober when officials discovered that
$102 500 of it's funds were involved in
$4,000 bond swindle alleged to
have been engineered by Charles r.
Knapp, a bond salesman. The funds
from the bank formed a. part of a pool
raised by r. A. Mcl,ady, president OF
the institution, for the purchase OF
Liberty bonds from Knapp at bar
gain prices. Knapp disappeared after
the money was turned over TO nm
but was later arrested and most on
the cash recovered. Knapp. McRady
and several other officers of the bank
are awaiting trial on various charges.
Cameron told the labor union rep
resentatives he would not oppose re-
organization of the bank, but said 1t
could not take place until appraisal
of the banks assets had been com
pleted and the money recovered by
the police is returned. All of the
cash, found buried in Pittsburgh
suburb during investigation of the
case, has been placed in a safety de-
posit box for use as evidence in the
trial of those under arrest.
The Brotherhood Bank was or.
ganized in 1928 with a capital OF
S15S400. When it was closed the in.
stitution had assets and liabilities OF
s72S.619. of which S522.616 represented
deposits, mostly small accounts by
working people.

and speak more nearly as one man.
agriculture asks no special favors;
it wants no considerations not granted
