" Where with our
roo Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things. sometimes pro-
foundly, sometimes flippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

Cuba wasn't hit by the hurricane.
1t didn't need to be. President Ge-
rardo Machado has made wreck
enough of that beautiful island.
The people of the United States
would never guess this if it were left
to Mr.. Machado to tell the story.
News comes thick and fast from
the Pearl of the Antilles just now.
Mr.. Machado tells the Spanish War
Veterans, in convention in Havana,
that it is time the United States re-
nounced the Platt amendment, which
gives this country the right to inter-
vene in Cuba for the protection of
life and LIBERTY at any time, with
out consent of Mr.. Machado, his sat
elites, or anyone else.
That seems to be on Mr.. Machado's
nerves; it has been there for long
time
Mr.. Machado is a dictator How
IdlI dDyOllG Dc a Iuil-lleQSCQ, SuIc-
enough dictator when some other pow
er has the right to step in and cramp
his style at any moment? Of course
Mr.. Machado doesn't like the Platt
amendment.
No progressive American will seek
to justify intervention, but be that as
it may, Mr.. Machado's objections are
not based on any progressive senti-
ments or motives. He's got vulner-
able heel-that's his weakness!
Cuba is going through all of the
woe and misery of hard times. Even
lot of the corporation buddies who
used to flock around the Cuban tyrant
have quit him cold. Things are in
a bad way The president makes a
pretty speech now and then-includ-

FISHER DEAD

Washington London cables an
nounce the death of Andrew Fisher
former labor premier of Australia
He has lived in London for some time.
He was born in Scotland amid pauper
surroundings and emigrated to Aus
tralia when blacklisted in his home
town. He was labor premier in 1908
and in 1910. He was not an orator
and had little OF what is known as
personal magnetism. His success was
ascribed to his honesty and loyalty
to the cause of labor.

NORTHWEST WORK
LESS BRING
GRAVE PROBLEM

Portland, Ore.-A report by the
seasonal employment commission
shows that unemployment is a grave
problem in this state, and it is ex-
pected to become more serious as sea-
sonal employments are ended.
In but two or three districts does
there appear to be such seasonal en-
ployment that can care for job-seek-
ing workers. With the completion of
fruit picking and hop picking these
workers will flood the cities. What
to do with them this winter will be
the problem.

Above all Cuba needs a restoration
of the rights of men-the right to
organize, the right to speak freely,
to write freely and to assemble freely.
Dictatorship hates these things, but
by the same token their destruction
in the end also destroys the power
that took them away

ing those for American consumption
but matters get no better.
The leading opposition congressman
is in exile, another is in hospital.
Liberty is no more plentiful in Cuba
than it was in the days when strikers
were being shot by soldiers, while
magnates were banquetted in the pre-
cincts of presidential bounty.
Meanwhile Cuban newspapers have
been printing lurid story to the eff
feet that the president has ordered
that suit for libel against him be
brought in the United States That
would, indeed, be goodl
Cuba is an excellent example of
what can happen when political and
industrial exploitation join hands.
Corporate greed has enforced low
wages, while political greed has de-
stroyed the right of the masses to
join openly in effective protest. The
poor have been whipsawed against
each other.
But the process of bleeding the
Cuban people is near an end. The
reason for this is that the Cuban
masses have been about bled white.
The magnificence of Havana be-
comes more and more stage screen,
setting which conceals the misery
in the background. The tourists will
continue to see the luxury of the fine
hotels, of the casino and of the race
track and they will continue to get
good drinks at Sloppy Joe's clean bar,
but in the background lurk the thou
sands who go hungry, who go dirty,
who approach nearer and nearer to
that abyss of poverty and despair that
inevitably throws back its desperate
belch of hot destruction before it fin
ally gives us the ghost

remain who know the truth and who
yet dare to proclaim the truth. But

try Their good sense will be sorely
needed. The measures which they ad
vocate will be sorely needed

call members Of my own family who
the soil in the western part of the
state and were then still living In the
first sod houses of the pioneer farm
er. Our fathers and grandfathers
who poured over the midwest were
self-reliant, rugged God-fearing peo-
pie of indomitable courage. They
combined to build the roads, bridges.
and towns; they co-operated together
to erect their schools, their churches,
and to raise their barns and harvest
their fields. They asked only for
freedom of opportunity and an equal
chance. In these conceptions lies the
real basis Of American democracy.
They and their fathers give q genius
to American institutions that distin-
guished our people from any other In
the world. Their demand for an
equal chance is the basis of Amer
lean progress. To those who have
by necessity worked In other lands
comes this most vivid meaning of
America and deep gratitude for
what our fathers have builded. Here
there are no limits to hope; no limits
upon accomplishment; our obligation
today is to maintain that equal oppor-
tunity for agricultural as we'll as for
every other calling.
Pledges Service to Homes
When we traverse the memories Of
those who have builded this state and
this nation we recall these acts
which are rooted In the soil of serv.
Ice. When wa rehearse our own
memories we find that none give us
such comfort and satisfaction as the
record Of service we have been able
to render. do not believe our peo-
pie have lost those finer qualities of
rugged character, self.reliance, or
initiative, nor have they lost the
great quality which they imbedded in
American character, the quality of
neighborly cooperation and mutual
service. 1t is in this quality that our
hopes must lie in the solution of our
great problems.
And l must say again that the solu-
ton Of these problems has but one
purpose-that is the comfort and
welfare of the American family and
the American home. The family Is
the unit Of American life and the
home Is the sanctuary OF moral in
spiration and Of American spirit.
The true conception of America Is not
country of 100000 people but q
nation of 100000 families living in
100000 homes pledge my serv.
Ices to these homes. --------
