MILITARY FILL HAVANA TO STOP

Disorders Are Feared in Cuba in Connection With Observance of lndepend- ence Day
By K. D. GILMORE

United Press Stan Correspondent )
 Havana. Cuba, May 20.-(UP)- Military detachments reinforced the police on the streets of Havana to- day in an effort by the government to prevent disorders feared in con- rection with the observance of Inde- pendence day.
 The authorities ruled that no dem- onstrations were to be held. No official acts were scheduled and for the first time since the birth of the republic no military parade will be held.
 The entire police force was under orders to stand by ready for action. They were armed with rifles and double rounds of ammunition. The action on the part of the government was prompted by persistent reports that an effort would be made to-day to overthrow the administration headed by President Gerardo Ma chado.
 President Machado issued state ment deploring the "subversive &C., tivities" against the ministry and pied that all Cubans unite for the common welfare of the republic. He defended his administration, assert ing that the future must acknowl- edge no tyranny and no unrelentless- ness"
 The president referred to the cer- tain efforts of a foreign power" which he said were friendly but which threatened ito culminate in an adventure, though without sue cess in the material order." The ef- forts, his statement said, Twill result in a dangerous emotions in the Cu- ban conscience"
 There have been reports from Washington recently that certain political elements in Cuba have asked for intervention by the United States to solve the present recurrent internal disorders.
 Machado, returning to his appeal for cooperation among all political factions, said:
 "Blind and unrelenting passions hiding their true resolve, some Cu- bans organize rebellion when the republic demands sacred union. I do not give them a name. I appeal sole ly to the forces that in these cases constitute national reserve"
 The presidents appeal follows weeks of unrest during which there has been little to indicate that efforts to restore political peace without violence have made much progress. An interesting phase of this opposi- ton to the Machado regime was re- ported by the chief of police. who said there were no fewer than IA candidates for provisional" presi- dent.

LOCAL MONEY
PLACED INTO
LIGHT BONDS
Entire Bond Issue Sold to L0-
cal Investors; Speaks Well
for City's Credit and the
Economic Situation

Bonds in payment Of the city's
new street lighting system were
disposed of in Kennewick. Half of
the cost Of the improvement was
made at the expense of the abut-
ting property owners, while the
remainder was made a general city
obligation. Of the local improve
ment assessments, over half the
amount was paid in promptly in
order to avoid interest charges
The remaining amount, for which
bonds were issued, was taken by
the city from it's own surplus
funds, thus saving for the city
the interest, with the exception of
one for $500 which was bought To-
cally.
The general obligation bonds
were also purchased locally, the
bank taking the entire S425O is
sue. In the opinion of local BUSH
ness men this action speaks well
for the credit of the city as well
as for the general economic out
look for the district.

POULTRYMEN WANT
CHICKEN SCHOOL
w. s. C. Expert Coming to Con.
duct Classes the Middle of
Next Month

A committee of poultrymen from
the Prosser community is work
ing with the county agent in the
development of a program for the
coming poultry school to be held
Monday and Tuesday, January IL
and IL. Mr.. Buchanan had sent a
letter of suggested topics for dis
cussion and these lad been mailed
out to number of poultrymen
asking that they check in order of
Importance and return to the ex-
tension office. This has been done
and these suggestions are being
considered in the formulation of
the program.
A special request has come from
|poultrymen for the services of
Professor Carver at the school this
year and request for assistance
from him has been made to the Ex-
tension service in the hopes that
he could be secured. Professor Car
yer is recognized as one of the
outstanding leaders in poultry
breeding connected with colleges
of the United States and is always
welcome at our meetings.
1t is hoped that by next week
detailed program may be available
for the paper. Poultrymen should
keep the above dates in mind. This
is being planned as one of the best
poultry schools that we have had
for several years.

Courtesy; Not Necessary

A. A. Anderson, general man.
ager of Church's Grape Juice
plant, is authority for the state
ment that few towns or cities
have anything on Kennewick
when it comes to courteous, eff
ficient service by city employees
Upon special orders from st.
Paul, N. p. train No. 1 was
stopped here in the middle of
the night the first of the week
to permit Mr.. Anderson to alight
on his trip home from Seattle
where he went on an effort to
provide plenty of refreshment
for the holidays for the benight-
ed sinners in the seaport town.
Being late he requested the serv-
ices of a (the) local taxi. Upon
his arrival he was unable to To-
cate same-or similar.
Obligingly, Bert Moores, night
patrolman, who uses the city
flivver to meet all trains, piled
Mr.. Anderson in the windswept
front seat and deposited him
home in due time. And Mr.. An
derson pointed out-while he is
a great drinker of the kind of
grape juice his factory produces,
that is the only kind he imbibes,
so it wasn't necessary, but a
courtesy on the part of MI
Moores.

IN KENNEWICK
Senator Jones Introduces Bill
Appropriating Money for
Federal Structure; Site Has
Been Donated

If Kennewick resident cares
anything about stirring up the in
|dignation of Pascoite all he needs
to do is to mention federal build
ing" Immediately the person from
across the river wants to know how
come.
AS result of the action taken
by the local Kiwanis club, Cham
Der of Commerce and the city
fathers, bill was introduced in
the senate the first of the week
by Senator Wesly L. Jones asking
for an appropriation of SIPS, 000
for federal building in Kenne-
wick. Pasco's new federal building
lis costing a trifle more than half
that sum.
With the expected development
on the Highlands and the recovery
of the agricultural situation with
in the near future, the Kennewick
post office is anticipating substan-
tial gains. At the present time re-
ceipts and the amount of mail
handled here is nearly equal to
that on the other side of the river.

Farm; Two Days in Ken

The usual winter horticultural
schools are now being arranged
for at Kennewick, Prosser, White
Bluffs and Hanford and Benton
City communities for the week OF
January 5 to 9, inclusive. At this
time j. T. Bregger, extension hor-
ticulturist, the staff of the Irri.
cation Branch Station, Prosser, in
GLIDING Mr.. Singleton, Mr.. Clay.
pool and DR.. Larson, and it is hop
ed, Mr.. Anthony Spuler Of the We
natchee Station and doing research
work on pest control, will be avail
able for discussion Of various
horticultural topics. One or two
others, including Mr.. Givan, extern
sion marketing specialist, may be
available. As usual, these schools
are under the direction of the ex-
tension service with the assistance
of the state department through
the horticultural inspection serv-
ice of the county with Mr.. Doyle
Starcher as leader in this work.
Detailed program has not yet
been worked out but will include
the newer developments in codling
moth control, findings of the ex-
pertinent station on irrigation par
ticulars and tree fruits and
truck crops, marketing, perennial
root stock weed control.
The meetings will be arranged
a good deal as they have been
during the past two years the new
er subject matter being briefly
presented and this followed by
general round-table discussion with
presentation of information by
growers touching on the problem
under discussion. For those who
did not attend the State horticul-
tural meeting, and there were but
few of the county who did, these
meetings should bring to growers
of the county much worthwhile
| information.
| The schools as arranged viii
probably include a two-day school
at Kennewick, one day at White
Bluffs, one at Hanford and one al
clinton City, and a one or two-day
session at Prosser. Schools will be
arranged so that outside speakers
may be able to. present subject
matter at three of the schools in
three days time.
We would suggest that growers
watch next weeks paper for de-
tailed program.

Thousands Snow Blind

This is a land of strange para
loxes. Situated in the center of
20O-mile desert, Kennewick has
experienced thousands of cases
of snow blindness!
We might hasten to explain
that the sssnow blindness" is not
exactly the same sort one reads
about in tales of the far north,
nor were the thousands" of
cases human.
The blindness was due to snow
freezing the wool over the eyes
Of the thousands of sheep being
wintered in the Horse Heaven
hills by Coffin Brothers. Pro-
fessional shearers had to be i'm
ported to clip the wool as the
sheep were unable to see their
food and were rapidly starving.

WHEAT GROWERS
TO HOLD MEETING
Grain Farmers to Consider the
Marketing of Product at
Lind Meeting

The Annual Farm Economic
Conference scheduled to be held at
the Lind auditorium in Lind jan
uary II will be one of especial in
terest this year due to the fact
that Mr.. Orris Dorman, a member
of the Board of Directors of the
North Pacific Grain Growers In
corporated, will be present to adj
dress this gathering of farmers
on the subject Of the North Pacif-
lie Grain Growers. This active and
growing organization which oper-
ates in Washington, Oregon, Ida
no and Montana, has had marked
success in the short time in which
it has operated and is attracting
widespread attention throughout
the Pacific Northwest. Grain
growers are watching the work of
the organization and endorsing it
more strongly as time goes on and
methods of operation are better
methods Of operation are better un-
derstood. Marketing is the cost
important and one of the most ne
SlecCeQ OF the IdTWoT pfODlSIHS,
neglected because it is least und-
erstood. This will be an excellent
opportunity for the farmers to
learn some of the basic principles
of the disposal of farm produce.
Since the county agent in Adams
county is doing much more on
wheat survey than we are doing
here, we think it might be very
much worthwhile for wheat grow
ers who can to attend the meeting
at Lind, says E. C. Durdle, county
agent. This would be another OPP
portunity for growers to get first
hand information relative to the
North Pacific Grain Growers, Inc.

ANOTHER LIGHT

Under the leadership of C. A.
Carpenter, members of the Meth
odist church have raised enough
money to purchase the spare
light pole from the contractor. It
will be erected on the corner in
front of the church and will con-
tain a globe somewhat larger than
those now installed.
The pole, completely installed,
will cost about 5000, Mr.. Carpen-
ter said, and he has secured all
but five or six dollars of that
amount. Part of the donations are
in labor. Mr.. Carpenter wants to
especially thank the business men
of the town for their cooperation in
the matter, without it would have
been impossible to have secured
the additional light.
