Tiny Siamese Twins
Recovering After

Second Operation Neces'
sary to Save Lives of
Girls 4 Days Old.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, July 10-Twin girls,
joined at birth here Tuesday but
severed by surgical operation declared
to have few parallels, remained alive to-
day, and surgeons expressed hope a
second vital operation to save them
would be possible.
They are doing better than ex-
pected," it was said at Mercy Hospital
as the twins began their fourth day
of life.
Without the second operation, the
babies cannot survive, surgeons said
All their organs are normal except their
intestinal tract, there being but one
and it was through this that they were
joined.
The initial operation, considered
been performed, the obligation to use
the knife second time developed tc
prevent blind termination of the in
teStinal tract of each child in the abb
dominal cavity. 1t was explained by DR.
Daniel J. Pessagno, who performed the
first operation.
Otherwise life would be destroyed by
the accumulation of poisons generated
by food within the abdominal cavity
he said.
The second operation is not planned
for several days. The twins weighed
Az pounds each at birth. The mother,
SO years old, was in good condition.
So-called SiameSe twins occur but
once in $4,000 cases, it was said by a
Johns Hopkins specialist, and the
chances Of surviving an operation were
said to be but | in 10.

Pan-American Federation Studies
Complaints Against
President.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Cuban labor organizations have ap-
pealed to the Pan-American Federation
of Labor to urge civil intervention and
oppose the regime of President Ma
chado.
The appeal was made in letters from
several labor groups of the island re-
public. They charged they had been
mistreated by the Cuban administration.
The Pan-American Federation said
the communications were being studied,
but declined other comment.
Previous action by the American Fed
Grafton of labor, with which the Pan
American group is afiliated. in oppoSi-
ton to any armed or diplomatic inter-
vention, was deplored by the Cuban or
CARNATIONS.
The Cuban complaints said Machado
had failed to keep promises to the Labor
groups, and had kept all our organiza-
lions in a dormant state
This situation is intoterable for those
who are here" the letters added. Our
dignity and decency, our human senti-
ments, do not permit us TO remain any
more in this condition of tauntS and
indignity, and we are obliged to join the
unanimous opinion of the country and
ask for the fall of the most abject die
tatorship that any country has ever
suffered"

StefanSson contends that much oil
