CUBAN PRESIDENT
 DEFENDS COUNTRY
Says Only Cloud Present UniYer'
 sal Economic Slump
BY GERARDO MACHADO President of Cuba

Copyright, 1880, in all countries by
 United Press)
 Havana, Oct. 8 (UP) - The po- much comment, and the publication of so much insidious news, really is limited to Havana and to the propa- ganda and activities of individuals segregated from the regular con- stituted political parties.
 These individuals have been join ed by others of communistic tend encies who are ready at all times to take advantage of any situation or any circumstance to carry on their work of propaganda against regu- larly organized government.
 A sad example of these activities was the recent use of some students, naturally excitable and ready for ad- venture, in the promotion of dis turbance. Fortunately the author ities were able to meet the situation without difficulty; but unfortunate ly one student was killed-the vic- tim of malicious propaganda and the raShneSS Of youth.
 There are three leading parties in Cuba-the liberal, existent since the establishment of the republic; the conservative, organized during the second intervention of the United States in 1906, and the popular, or ganized during the administration of General Mario Menocal in 1919.
 These parties, with few eXcep- tions, comprise all the voters of Cuba. It will be noted, also that my administration did not take part in their establishment.
 The three parties in 1928, after maure deliberations and with the cooperation of jurists of world wide renown, amended the constitution. A referendum of voters approved the amendment. Then elections were held November l, 1928.
 Picked One Candidate
 The three parties decided again to cooperate for the benefit of the nation, and with the purpose of avoiding a bitter political struggle determined to have one candidate for the presidency-a national can- didate. without opposition. They nominated me as the candidate of all parties, an honor which I accept ed as 8 testimonial that my sincere and constant efforts toward the pro- gress and improvement of conditions in my country had been appreciated, and that I was supported by all in my work of giving Cuba solid, honest and capable public adminis- tration and a place of honor among the nations of the world.
 I was inaugurated May 20, 1929, and was honored by the presence of 32 extraordinary envoys of as many nations.
 Now. the constitution clearly di- rects the time and mode of election of the congress. The date for the next election of senate and house representatives is November 1. Both houses must by law take office on the first Monday in April, 1881. Neither I nor anyone else has the right to suspend or postpone the elections. Such actions would leave the country without proper legis- lative power, and would force the executive to assume practically a dictatorial character
