HAVANA BOMBERS
 ARE BELIEVED TO
 BE UNDER ARREST
Two Confessed Bomb Mak- CTS Taken in By Police Numerous Blasts Have Taken Place of Late

l Havana, March G.--UP) -polIct
 believed to-day that they had broken iup an organization responsible for
 many recent bombings within the
 arrest of two confessed bomb mak-
 CTS, Luis Mutiz and Antonio Niebla Officials claimed that the two men were responsible for the bomb- Ing of water main here recently. A large quantity of dynamite and other material for manufacturing bombs was found in q cave on the shore Of the Almandares river and Mutiz and Niebla were arrested for the possession of the explosives. Numerous bombs exploded in va riouS parts of the capital last night
 Damage was slight except at the lab
 oratory of Dr Enrique Rccio, direc- tor of National Laboratories, where
 valuable apparatus and specimens were destroyed
 MutiZ and Niebla confessed to the
 manufacture of 120 bombs, police
 said, one of which was to be placed In the residence Of the mayor of
 Manthzas. Several prominent mem- bers of the opposition political par ties were mentioned as clients of the bomb makers.
 Bombings have given the police an
 increasing amount of difficulty re- gently. Tear bombs, gas bombs, and
 small noise bombs were not consid-
 ered particularly dangerous, but re-
 gently the bombers have used dyna-
 mite and liquid fire.
 Dynamite bombs exploded in q
 bathroom at the presidential palace
 and in the chambers of the supreme court Glasses at the Women's Normal school were interrupted by
 noise bombs and one bomb contain + ing liquid fire.
 Camilo Va1des, sentinel at the palace accused of placing bomb | there. implicated employees of the National Munitions depot and army officers In an alleged plot to assas- sinate President Gerardo Machado his charges did not appear to be en- tirely substantiated. however. The noise bombs are not danger
 ous. but have created considerable lannoyance in the city. The explo-
 sion of one of the bombs Is not much
 louder than the back fire of an auto- | mobile

FEDERATION OF
 INDIAN STATES
 IS AGREEMENT
But the interests of Great Britain Will Be Safe- Guarded Under the New Compact Just Decided
By WEBB MILLER

London. March G.-Up)--The and Lord Irwin ending the national ist civil disobedience campaign in India brought the nation to the threshold of q new era of political development---a federation of Indian states with Britain's vital interests in India safsguarded.
 This conforms with the general lines of the conclusions of the In- dian round table conference. The Fundamental significance of the agreement reached at New Delhi lies in the facts that Gandhi and the congress party abandoned complete independence for India as their pres cnt goal; they accepted an all-Indian federation as the next best goal; and ! they agreed to cooperate in forming construction on federal basis.
 The conclusions of the negotiations brings the congress party to it's greatest power since the movement was founded 45 years ago and per- Inits Gandhi to wield an ovcrwhelm- ing influence in the forthcoming constitutional negotiations.
 After normality Is restored in In- dia, efforts will begin to solve the complex problems of the construc- ton of new form of government for one-fifth of the inhabitants of the world. The negotiations arc ex- pected to occupy many months. One of the most serious difficulties is the Hindu MosIem problem, which the first round table conference failed to solve.
 Gandhi may revive many national ist demands when the constitutional negotiations begin. At the moment he has abandoned insistence of many of the famous eleven points present cd to the viceroy just a. year ago. They included total prohibition, abolition of the salt tax, reduction of land taxes and military expenditure by one half, and general tax re- duction.
 The governments most important concession was permission of limited 1ise of the boycott against foreign cloth and liquor shops. The govern ment will regain millions of pounds sterling in revenue which could not be collected during the non-coopera- ton campaign.
 Calcutta, March G.--UP)---Busi- ness circles were optimistic to-day over the results of the truce with Indian nationa1ists. The stock ex- change was bullish before the publi- cation of the peace terms but eased at to-day's opening. Government promissory notes were steady.

Audit List Is Challenged.

Claiming that members Of the advisory
committee of the Montgomery County Civic
Federation Improperly used the names of
that body. Thomas W. Fitzgerald has writ
ten a letter to the county commissioners
asking that the list of auditors approved
by the committee members be disregarded.
The federation and the bankers of the
county were each asked to furnish a list
of twelve accounting firms recommended
to make an audit of the county books for
the past sixteen years.
Mr.. Fitzgerald. a Chevy Chase accountant.
said that the federation should either call
a special full meeting to make up the re-
Quested list. or choice of an auditing com
pany should be restricted to the twelve
firms recommended by the bankers.
The accountants letter also suggested
that the contract for the audit should be
awarded on the basis of competitive bids.
He believes. however. that the bids should
be asked for on the basis of low price
per diem. as it is almost impossible to
estimate the length of an audit. II the
total cost is too low. he says. there might
be tendency to skimp the work. whereas
there would be no such tendency on a per
day basis.
Mr.. Fitzgerald pointed out that Balti-
more or Washington firm could probably
do the work more cheaply than another. as
there would be no sustenance cost for
auditors.

In Memoriam.

In sad but loving remembrance Of my
dear mother, Alice E. Ricketts,. who de-
parted this life six years ago. August 9th
1925.
My heart still aches with sadness.
My eyes shed many tears.
God only knows how miss you
At the end of six saddened years.
When evening shades are falling,
And am sitting all alone.
In my heart there comes longing
If mother could only come home.
1t matters not which road we take.
How dark or lonely it may be.
We know that God will somewhere
Join the road that leads to thee.
Her devoted daughter. Clara.
Life has been real sad for us.
Your smiling face we have longed to see,
May angels guide US all the way
To meet you on the judgment day.
Her devoted husband and children.
