by the United Press Service, dated
April 29th. The story reads:
'1ombardo Toledano visited Man
aqua on his way back to Mexico City
from the International Rectors
Congress held at Montevideo, Uru-
quay. A similar report (of robbery
and pillage by q. S. rnarines) was
published in Mexico week ago on
an interview with Nicaraguan stu
dent visiting here,
1.-THE professor, interviewed by the
United Press correspondent, said that
the Universal had quoted him &C.
curately in these words.
The most striking impression
which I received in Central Amer
lea, he said, was the saeking OF
Managua by the United States mar
ines Immediately following the earth
quake which devastated that city.
The marines proclaimed martial
law ostensibly with the object OF pro-
tecting the interests of the people OF
Managua. However, such excuses
were committed by the marines that
clashes between them and the police
ensued.
The marines dy1an1ited safes
which they knew contained money
and killed persons attempting to
enter the ruins of their homes,
searching for anything worth saving.
81 received word of this at San
Juan Del Sur, and ON arriving at
Corinto (Port of Managua) no less
than so persons told ME the same
thing. They gave hair-raising de
tails, backed by photographs and all
sorts Of evidence ."
Such are the facts of the relief"
that the q. S. marines brought to
Nicaragua after the earthquake. At
the time the capitalist newspapers
told of marines killing dozens Of
Nicaraguan workers for refusing to
do forced labor, and other Mica
rsguans for footing" They brazen-
~ branded SANDING and the Army
of Liberation as bandits" Now the
facts are coming out. The marines
did the looting and shot workers vino
tried to stop them from robbing their
homes.

DOUBLE HEADER SLATED SUNDAY; .ELKS PLAY TWO
Rain Prevents Game Last Night and It Will Be
 Played Sunday

Rain last night caused post pcnement of the Elks-American Legion game and it will be added to Sundays schedule giving the fans another bargain day bill tomorrow, it was announced to- day by George Kchlhepp, Acting President of the City League. The Elks will have to play two games then as the Moose did last Sunday.
 In the curtain-raiser, the Moose and Elks will tangle. This game is called for 4:30 p. m. and will start promptly at that time. The second, between the Elks and Legion, will be the nightcap, start ing 10 minutes after the first is completed. Both are seven-inning affairs.
 The bill should, and probably will, draw the seasons biggest crowd. The race between the two lodge teams for the title of the second half is tight. The Bills by a single game and that margin can be easly wiped out Sunday. On the other hand if it wins both, the chances for Little Worlds Series this year will be small.
 Manning probably will heave for the Elks against the Moose, opposing Erskine or Osborne. Junge is expected to pitch against the Legion, opposing Pete Schmitz.
