More than eighty thousand Ignite
miners struck for the eight hour day
and a wage increase several months
ago. but failed to win their demands.

One and half million dollars of
American capital are invested in
Cuba. Of this $3.50, 100000 represent
sugar plantations and refineries I'M
der American control.
Seventy per cent of the total pro-
duction of Cuba is represented by
sugar, and most of the sugar and to-
bacco production is under American
control Almost all the hotels, banks,
electric light and power systems, tele-
graphs and telephones, are American
owned. The railways are still, as in
many Latin-American countries, un-
der British control.
Under the influence of American
capital, Cuba became a lone crop
country" depending almost entirely
on it's sugar crop. 1t is compelled to
import coffee, rice, meat and even
fruits and vegetables. The pros
perity" which American capital
brought to Cuba is visible in rows of
magnificent hotels and palatial coun-
try residences, inhabited mostly by
Americans or retired Cuban politicians
and former government officials. One
of the former presidents of the Re-
public, General Gomez, demons rated
Cuban prosperity by retiring after one
term Of four years with $4,000, 900.
General Menocal, his successor, who
held on for two terms, was able to
accumulate for himself the sum Of
$40, 100000.
Starvation Wages.
Wages are among the lowest n all
La in America. There is a great re-
serve of unemployed Negro workers

many large establishments have been
dismissing all their Spanish and
Cuban workers in order to o'aI,k y

came to Cuba in the hope of reaching
the United States and are actually
starving in the streets of Havana. The

of bankruptcy and unemployment, but

In 1877, 25 years before the indie
uendence of Cuba, under Spanish ruiz.
the island had only 1,509,291 inhabi
ants. twenty-five years later, at thu
date of The proclamation of indie
pendence in 1902, the population had
only increased by $4,000. But in the
following rs years, under -"inde-

1t is even believed in some quar-
tiers that Mr.. Ford had advance
knowledge of the governments ac-
ton and timed his European trip ac-
cordingly.
The rubber market was further de-
pressed today by Premier Baldwin's
announcement in the house of COM
mons that the British restrictions in
Malaga and Ceylon will be removed
and it is possible that contracts may
be possible within few weeks at
approximately 1G cents a pound. The
prediction was made by Sir Robert
Hutchinson, chief liberal whip, that the
price may sink to IA cents a pound.
In spite Of the drop in rubber prices,
neither Ford nor Firestone will aban-
don their projects for rubber produc-
tion Firestone has already started
work on huge rubber tract in Lii
IBERIA, while Henry Ford will begin
work on his rubber grant in Brazil.
The Stevenson restriction act was
voided, it is understood, because it
failed to maintain the price of the
commodity at l shilling pence, as
originally planned, and because re-
striction of production had encouraged
the production Of rubber by Dutch
and later American investors.

HIST0RICNARCH

March 4, 1929, may Be the last
time Washington will experience
presidential inauguration on that
historic day Of the year.
There Is q strong likelihood that
constitutional amendment win be
adopted by Congress at this session
changing inauguration day from
March to sometime In January.
An amendment for this purpose.
introduced by Senator Norris. of
Neb., has already passed the Senate,
and similar amendment has been
favorabiy reported to the House BY
it's committee on election Of the
President, the Vice President ana
Representative In Congress-. This
amendment, introduced In joint
resolution BY Representative Harry
b. White Of Kansas, has been
given b privileged place on the
House calendar.
But even IL the amendment
passes during this session, 1t prob
ably will not be ratified BY the
States until after the next inaugu-
ration.
The proposed amendment would
vitality affect washington In sew
eraI other ways.
1t would provide for the con.
vening Of Congress In January In.
stead Of December. 1t would also
probably eliminate the short ses-
sion Of Congress which now comes

LOOD Relief
A SQUABBL,E

Administration leaders in Con-
gress have virtually decided to allow
flood relief to become + legislative
free,for.all. despite the positive
recommendations Of President
Coolidge. it was indicated today.
A thorough canvass of the senti.
ment Of members is said to have
disclosed the hoplessness Of attempt
ing to invoke the plea to sstand by
the President in solving the prob
lem OF protecting the Mississippi
Valley.
Flood relief apparently Is rapidly
revolving itself into a sectional and
individual fight, with the national
political aspirations Of several mem.
bers OF both Senate and House
exercising considerable influence.
The chief efforts Of Administers
ton leaders, it is expected, win
be directed toward the squelching
OF all movements to turn the flood
relief bill into a pork barrel
measure through riders to include
purely local projects and rivers and
harbors work.
