cided that because no motive could be
found and because there was evidence
the victim had fallen, he had met death
accidentally. His skull and several ribs
were fractured.

returned a verdict finding DIR. Sabungi
had met his death at the hands of un-

CHICAGO, April 29.-Representa-

thinks that Maj. Gen. Smedley D. But
Ter should be sent to Nicaragua to
clean up Sandino," the rebel leader,
He made that suggestion yesterday in a
speech before the Chicago Rotary Club,
and coupled it with the assertion that
SANDING is being financed in his pro-
gram by New York Communists"
The Representative, whose remarks
criticizing tie Hoover administrations
attitude on Nicaragua were censored
in an address to the D. A. r. at WASH
ington, repeated them in paraphraSe to
the Rotarians.
For Protection by U. S.
He declared himself in o.. ,sition to
President Hoover's refusal to let the
Marines march inland in pursuit of
the bandits" He criticized 'non-pro-
lection" CT Americans in Nicaragua.
My idea" he said, lis not only to
send a regiment to the country in de-
Tense of our citizens, but also to add a
regiment of Marines headed by Gen.
Butler with orders to clean up
SANDING"
His reference to the purported Com
munist connection with Nicaragua was
a passing one, but he devoted most OF
his talk to denouncing Soviet Russia.
The most serious and immediate
ISSUE" he said, lis the protection of
free American labor against competition
from the convict and forced labor in
Soviet Russia, which has seized and
confscated all lands and natural re-
sources.
- We in this country have
done more to build up Communism in
Russia than any other country.
Mistake of Capitalists.
%" Lenin, who was a great
man, was right when he said that
capitalists will commit suicide for tenn
porary profit. That is just what
American capitalists have been doing
by aiding a Communist government
dedicated to the destruction of capital
ism and all Communist govern
ments."
He reviewed the report Of the Fish
Congressional Committee, which made
a study cf Communist activities in the
United States
