WASHINGTON, May 15.-The in
cidents surrounding and leading up
to the latest developments in the
Coolidge-Kellogg policy in Nicaragua
are but one more item in the long
list of lies, stupidities and brutalities
that has featured the course of their

Time and again the president and
his secretary of state have denied or
given assurances of a certain course
only to have it turn out, within the
next few days at the most, to be
exactly the opposite. First, they vio-
lated every shred of decency by
backing Diaz, who was responsible
for the overthrow of the legally
elected government, and obtaining his
election to the presidency. Then they
sent down American marines to keep
him in office. Finally, they sold him
several hundred thousand dollars
worth of government arms with
which to crush the ever mounting
revolt. And even this expedient fail

emissary, Colonel Henry L. Slim

cabinet, to deliver an ultimaturn to

These events reach through a
period of some seven months-seven
months of operations by Coolidge
and Kellogg that are staggering in
the enormity of the brutalities per-

AS the Season Wanes
Another Comedy Here

"He Loved the Ladies'" a comedy
by Herbert Hall Winslow, has just
opened at the Frolic Theatre (atop
the New Amsterdam Theatre). Tho
bearing so frivolous a title it really
takes itself very seriously. 1t is a
sermon disguised as a comedy and re-
minds one of the efforts to make re-
ligion and the church palatable to
sophisticated people.
1t warns the women of Babbitry not
to indulge in the dangerous pastime
of writing love letters, that sin is
bound to be found out and it strives
to show that the sins of the parents
are visited upon their children. It ever
strains to call for that subtle emotion
known as pathos, in the portrayal of
the antics of Aubrey, the illigitimate
daughter brot up in the slums of Chi
cagO, trying to make an impression
on the snobs of Waynesville.
The story is that of wealthy
bachelor, Hamilton Wayne, who was
the Don Juan of the small town of
Waynesburg. He is a pillar of So
ciety, respected and admired. After
his death it is revealed that all the
women of his circle had at some time
had love affair with him. There is
the discriminating evidence of love
letters written by these women and
their, lives become one mad pursuit
to get those letters before they are
read by their husbands. Aubrey, the
snubbed outcast of Babbitry, saves
them by burning the letters.
With the exception of Louise Car
ter, in the role of Margaret Jellicoe,
devoted doormat housekeeper to Mr..
Wayne and mother of his illigitimate
daughter, the cast is very poor-N. NJ.

First of all few comrades borrowed
this money from certain sources and
then they pledged themselves to re-
pay it in installments. Meanwhile
the money has been placed at the inn

Our comrades feel that at the
present time, it would be the most
unfortunate thing which could hap
pen to our movement, if the patriotic
societies would succeed in their at
tempt to suppress The DAILY

making this great sacrifice. The

to challege the other units of the

to do better. Let us. see whether
there are other units which can beat

THE SECRET OF PROSPERITY

Every since 1919, when the country
resumed its stride after the war, the
workers of the United States have
been producing and having more to
spend year by year. That fact is es-
tablished by statistics, including those
of 1926, recently issued in the year
book of the United States department
of commerce.
The soil and the seasons were not
better; the forest, mineral and other
natural resources were the same; the
railroads had about the same mileage
and the general facilities for COM
merce might have been as good at the
beginning of the seven-year period
but production has been materially
speeded up.
The good results were not due tt
things, but to men. The year book
says that the output per wage earn
er increased about 40 per cent as a
result of efficiency, improved man
agement, more scientific methods
waste elimination and greater use of
machinery.
That was a gain for everybody
Retailers, whose business is a pretty
good index of the prosperity of the
common run Of folks, all did better
business because the men and women
who produced, worked to better adj
