EXPECT GALES
TO DEFY BULLY
STAND OF U. S.
Congress Opposition to
Message Grows


WASHINGTON, Jan. II. Presi-
dent CooIidee's special message to
congress was accepted on all sides
today as constituting blunt warning
to Mexico that U. S. Imperialism con-
siders itself the sole master Of the
five republics of Central America.
A warning, too, that is backed up by
the presence Of rs American warships
and 5000 marines and bluejackets In
waters adjacent to Mexico.
All Washington today was looking
to Mexico City for the expected come
back" of President Gales.
Vigorous Reply Expected.
1t is anticipated here that Gales
will make vigorous reply, setting up
the contention that Mexico is sover-
eign power, and that she has as much
right to recognize Sacasa and encour-
age him as the United States has to
recognize Diaz and encourage him. 1t
is expected, too, that Gales will chal-
lenge the right of the United States
to interfere with Mexican vessels in
Nicaraguan waters.
II Gales stands stiffly on his pre-
rogative that Mexico is sovereign
power, as it is expected he will, then
an extremely delicate situation is
automatically created-and one that
may easily lead to an armed clash,

Opposition Solidifies.
Meanwhile, the presidents message
had the effect in congress of failing
utterly to ally the strong opposition
to it on the part of the democrats and
insurgent republicans. This opposi-
ton, if anything, was stronger than
ever today, and it threatens to break
out later in no inconsiderable proper
tions.
Rep. Garrett CD of Tennessee, the
minority leader, caustically criticised
the presidents message. He demand
ed to know the name of one American
who has been endangered in the
Nicaraguan civil war.

He called particular attention to
that part of the message in which
President Coolidge referred to Amer
lean holders of Nicaraguan bonds, and
inquired sarcastically IL the president
considers it his duty tors"protect buy
ers of Central American bonds, when
they know the conditions and histor-
les of those countries"

intervention favors the exploiters.
During the whole of Diaz's former
administration a body OF American
marines remained at Managua protect.
ing his unpopularity. Today there are
again at Managua American forces to
protect him against the people.
In compliance with my duty, after
exhausting all pacific means during
the long negotiations in Washington
and Central America and a fruitless
peace conference at Corinto, while we
fruitlessly proposed to submit our
civil diseord to the arbitration of
Washington and of the Central Amer
lean governments, / landed at Puerto
Cabezas, organizing my cabinet for
the re4sstablishment of constitutional
order interrupted by Chamorro and
Diaz.
On Dec. 20 marines were landed at
Ria Grande and Puerto Cabezas. Here
was notified to disarm my guard,
after surrounding the government
building, menaoing the same with
cannons ashore and by the ships Dem
yer and Cleveland. The alternative
was to deliver my arms or abandon
the town.
My government remains here dis
armed in order to signify by dts pres
ence it's right and possession.
U. S. Hostility.
Hostility is manifest. My govern
ment is impeded in collecting imports
on timber in places under its control
which in no way affects the American
government Of it's creditors, since said
imports are not oomprehended in the
financial plan.
l am INSTRUCTED in providing COM
busibles, and even provisions. Indeed,
an unheard of fact.
The auxiliary schooner Albert, my
only means of communication, was or
dered away and censorship estab-
lished against me, thus leaving me
isolated from my army and the world.
Datteriy, thru the noble efforts of
the American press, the censorship
has been removed.
Neutral Zones"
The neutral zones established have
only served to protect Diaz and are
hostile to my government.
Today I received advice from Rio
Grande that detachment of marines
threw into the river about 100000
cartridges exclusively our property,
thus depriving us of important values
with the purpose, undoubtedly, Of
weakening my army. Such a proceed

Ill gladly reply to your radio

tie Niosraguan problem and in order
that the American people may be fully
uniformed. l will make fair and brief
narration of the facts.
on Jan. /. 1925, Senior Carlos Solor-
Sano and the undersigned took the
oath of office as president and vice
president, respectively, in conformity
with the popular election of the pre-
vious year.

on the 25th eff October of the same
wear General Chamorro took hold Of
the Managua fortress thru treason,
which act determined the resignation
Of President Solorzano
The Nicaraguan constitution estab-
fishes that in case of the absolute or
temporary absence of the president
the executive power goes into the
hands of the viCe-president, but
Chsmorro prosecuted me, employing
violence to the point of obliging me to
leave the country and having himself
elected president by a discredited con-
gress. that is, with the omission of
liberal representatives.
Republics Stand by Pact.
Central American governments in
compliance with the Washington
treaties of 1928 expressly declared
non-recognition of the Chamorro gov
eminent. and the American govern
ment, guarantor of said compact,
declared thru Secretary of State KEEL
logg and the American Legation in
Nicaragua they qualified the Mica
raguan case as a question of principle
and not of persons, that from the 25th
OF October he conside cred the constitu-
tional order disturbed by the sub
versive movement headed by Chamor-
no and that the Washington treaties,
which guaranteed peace in Central
America, would be faithfully upheld
After some months ChamorrO, find.
ing It impossible to obtain American
recognition and popular Nicaraguan
acceptance, handed his power to Senior
Sebastton Uriza, who in turn resigned
the same favor to Senior Adolfo Diaz.
Marine Protection.
The presidencies of Chamorro, Uriza
and Ddaz are equally vitiated. Neither
stands on a. constitutional basis. More
over, the Washington compacts, spon-
sored by the United States, oblige the
Central American signatory states to
non-recognition of a government that
originates from coup d'etat" or
revolution against a recognized gov
eminent, and these conventions are
the same Secretary kellogg affirmed
would be observed. sponsored as they
we're by his government.
Nevertheless, Diaz has not only
been recognized, but supported effica-
oiously, notwithstanding his being one
OF the principal organizers of said
coup d'etat."
Guatemala and Costa Riea True.
Guatemala and Costa Rica remain
faithful to the compacts, refusing TO
recognize Diaz, but the state depart
ment in spite of its precise declaration
1t had made that the case was a ques-
ton of principles and not of persons
has recognized him.
Dlaz lacks constitutional support
and the Washington compacts inval-
idate him, having as his only support

nected with group of Nicaraguan
traders.

 BIG SALARY
Woman "Postmaster" oI Tampa, Florida, Paid
 Splendid Sum

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-The first job held by Elizabeth Barnard of Tampa. Fla, highest-salaried post mistress in the United States, was weighing nails and measuring rope at $4 a week.
 Today she controls the opera tion of one of the busiest post offices in the United States and draws higher salary than all save four of the country's post masters.
 According to Mrs. Barnard. the secret of success is learning everything about a given job and then keeping persistently at it.
 When was left widow with two small children to support and I got my first job weighing nails 1t was obvious that I would not get very far in that occupation, !" Mrs. Barnard says. "so I studied stenography at home in the eve ming.
 "1n 16 years service I handled every assignment from acting as stamp clerk to serving as assistant superintendent of the mails. The result was that when an appoint ment as postmaster came was ready for it."
 Mrs. Barnard was reappoihted last January after four-year's serv- ice as postmaster at Tampa.
