MANAGUA, Nicaragua, September
12.-Charles E. Buffers. owner of the
San Albino- mine, which virtually has
been ruined by the repel Gen. Sam
dino, has returned here from Ocotal in
a Marine airplane.
AS long as SANDING worked the mine
by force of arms extracting gold to
pay his soldiers and buy provisions
the mine was in fair condition, but
when he departed he and his followers
carried off or destroyed everything
worth while. American and native
employees, Mr.. Buffers said. have left
the region, which is absolutely unsafe.
Reiterated to Mountains.
SANDING and his forces have retreat
ed to the mountains, which are almost
inaccessible. He has plenty of horses,
provisions and ammunition, and. ae-
cording to Buffers, is prepared to
harass the Marines and constabulary
at any OppOrtune moment.
SANDING is described by the mine
owner as a desperate, cruel and very
forcible. lie has trained four boys
from IA to 16 years of age, Mr.. But
ters says, to act as his bodyguard and
kill at his command. These boys are
pictured as absolutely cold-blooded,
thinking no more of shooting a man
than cracking a mule with whip"
Will Seek Damages.
"I dare not return" said Buffers,
"as SANDING and his followers believe
1 am responsible for the presence OF
the Marines. who have curtailed their
activities. / am practically ruined
as under present condi-
tions in Nicaragua I cannot obtain
capital to rehabilitate my mine"
Buffers intends to present claim
for damages to the State Department,
and he is leaving soon for the United
States. The Marine command offered
to station 40 Marines at the mine.
but Buffers said it was too late, as
the damage has been done. He praised
the Marines for their stand in the
Ocotal battle. for everybody in that
region believed they would be ami
hilated.

Old Conditions Reversed.

"Today the reverse is true Econom-
ic pressure, industrialism. cities, free
dom from class distinctions, freedom
of divorce, the improvement of public
health, the growing desire for self
expression. the cult of feminism, birth
control and various other factors
have combined to cause a reversal Of
the old conditions"
DIR. Huntington takes issue with
those who hold that such a condition
is not dangerous because the growth
of modern industry demands a CON

pie who are little more than ma

END OF BUSINESS
CYCLE" FORECAST
Myers, Federal Trade Com
missioner, Sees Money
Stability Factor.
BY EDWARD c. STONE.

The business cycle soon will be as
antiquated as the bicycle-if not, in
deed, as extinct as the dodo--declared
Abram f. Myers, member of the Fed
eral Trade Commission, in addressing
the National Fertilizer Association at
Atlanta today.
Indications that point toward relegat-
ing the business cycle to the attic
were pointed out by Commissioner
Myers as "stabiliZation of the money
market through wise banking legisla-
ton, gradual stabilization of produc..
ton through the dissemination OF
statistics and other lawful activities
of trade organizations; the simplifica-
ton and standardization of production
and products, and the introduction OF
new wealth-producing activities faster
than the old ones are depleted or
reach the saturation point"
These considerations and many
more" he asserted, point clearly 10
an indefinite prolongation, with only
minor and temporary recessions, OF
the unprecedented prosperity which
