minister Of marine, who commanded the
attacking force, winding up a month
of warfare" IN which the casualties
on both sides were small and during
which no civilian or foreign resident
was injured.
Bombed From Three Sources.
BY land, sea and air the Federal
troops bombarded the rebels. but de-
spite the natural Notifications of the
island the junta forces were outnunl-
bered and tonight government troops
took over while the rebel leaders sought
sanctuary at the British legation.
The surrender was good news to
President Carmona, for 1t came on the
heels of May day rioting In which the
police had to turn machine gun on
q crowd. killing two men and wound
ing a score OF others.
The situation seemed serious and
the cabinet sought shelter in the Sd
Regiment barracks, but the cheers with
which Lisbon received the news from
Funchal enheartened supporters of the
government and mitigated fears that
the revolt in Madeira might spread to
Portugal itself.

GOOD PAY ON DAM
|. PLEASES OFFICIALS
Comment Follows SO Cents
an Hour Minimum Set by
Contractors.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Government officials expressed keen
pleasure yesterday at the decision of
the Hoover Dam contractors to pay q
minimum wage of so cents an hour for
unskilled labor.
The Reclamation Bureau announced
the decision on behalf Of Six Companies.
Incorporated, on receipt Of a telegram
sent from San Francisco by w. H.
Watts, president OF the concern.
There will be as many as 1900 men
construction Job at the bottom of the
Colorado Rivers Black Canyon. 1t will
be terrifically hot there in the center
OF the desert on Summer moons, and
equally it may be bitterly cold at other
times, but despite these unfavorable
employment conditions, hundreds of I'M
employed already have gathered at the
spot in search of work.
This price for unskilled labor" said
Reclamation Commissioner Mead, lis
regarded as a good wage even in pros
porous times. With the congregation
of unemployed in the vicinity of the
Hoover Dam site, it is admitted that
workers could have been secured at a
lower price, but the present action is in
touch with the Governments policy OF
doing all it can toward maintaining
favorable wage levels"
Oficials Of the company, while IN
Washington recently, indicated they in
tended to set generous scale, not only
to attract high-class labor but to set an
example to public contractors all over
the country. Had II been private con
struction Job, the scale might have been
lower they said.
The $4,000 600 Job will take from
six and half to seven years. Hun
dreds Of men already are at work and
the 1900 mark is expected to be reached
by midsummer at the latest.
Besides good wages the contractors
are planning refrigerated bunk houses
and recreation halls, cafeterias at the
bottom of the canyon and other attrac-
tons to make the desert not only live
able but pleasant to the pick and shovel
brigades.

ITALY HITS CHANGE
ON NAVAL BUILDING
Note Given Paris and London
o. KS Proposal to Alter
Replacement Quotas.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
ROME, May 2. Italy's contention
that there must be no major change in
the tripartite naval accord as 1t was
originally accepted was reiterated in a
note sent tonight to Paris and London
The reply to the French and British
proposals makes one concession which
does not alter the text or operation of
the agreement. 1t accepts the British
suggestion for re-examination Of re-
placement tonnage needs at confer
ence in 1885, but it stipulates that any
requirements approved for France also
must be approved for Italy.
The note takes the position that the
agreement obtained by the British ne
gotiators at Rome and Paris must stand
without alteration. It characterizes
what the French call an "interpreta-
ton" of the text as an alteration"
Italy emphasizes point which Pre-
nier Mussolini made at the time the
accord was announced-that real dis
armament means reduction in the build
ing program The note contends that
what the French propose would in
crease the annual tonnage from $1,000
to 10000.

only seven years ago, the malaria cure

IS to 35 per cent Of the sufferers from
hitherto incurable disease get well

DIR. Bruce Mayne, named by DR.
Williams to organize the difficult Job of
artificially breeding the mosquitoes on a
large scale, will leave next week for a
Southern State to select the mosquito
strain to be bred. Laboratory work
will be conducted at some spot to be
selected in the South and also at the
National Institute of Health here.
Among many experts trained in ex-
terminating mosquitoes, DR.. Mayne was
selected as being especially adapted to
coaxing them to live under artificial
conditions. His fellow laboratory work.

erly after weeks of effort by others had
proven unavailing. Thus a great ex-

When called for by hospitals they
will not be sent by mail or express,
he continued, but will be personally

in keeping them at proper tempera-

DR.. Mayne explained that at present
malaria is being induced in paresis pa

scientists have decided, he said, that
it would be easier to carry on a strain
Of malaria mosquitoes than to have to
look about for malaria patients. And
results would also be easier to keep

Further he said. only one of the
three species OF malaria mosquito pro-

results, the other two proving harmful.
His experiments will breed only the
simple Tertian type.
The efdcacy of the malaria in COM

maintained fever at periodic intervals,
which destroys the paresis germ.
