MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay. February
6.-Uruguay, which has been without a
revolution 80 years, heard tonight that
one was imminent, and so took pre-
cautions against an outbreak while 1t
made merry in its annual carnival.
President Terra was informed by Off
cials at Rivera, on the Brazilian from
tier, that a revolutionary movement was
about to break out there under leader
ship of Nepomuceno Saravia, estranged
regional leader Of the Nationalist
(minority) party,
Reds Reported Involved.
The President said he was told the
movement was linked with Communist
agitation in Montevideo and that
Saravia planned to march on the capi-
tai with sizable following.
The government Immediately rallied
its supporters in public life and pro-
hibited street meetings during the
carnival which began tonight. II
ordered troops held in readiness to
assist police, after mastering police
reinforcements. saying it had evidence
that Communists planned to provoke
open outbreaks during the Mardi GraS
officials said they suspected the Com
muniStS of planning to storm public
buildings, including the jail, where an
attempt would be made to free prisoners;
a warehouse. where foodStuffS are kept
or the customs house, where there were
large funds.
Search for Arms Vain.
Reports of a large cache of arms
hidden somewhere along Uruguay's S
Northern River boundaries continued
to trouble the government, although a
search revealed nothing.
Jose Lazarraga, Communist member
of the Chamber of Deputies, dressed in
overalls and cap, attempted to speak
against the "bourgeoiSie" in the cham
Der last night, protesting against what
he said were prosecutions by the au-
thoritieS. His speech was interrupted
by a great uproar, he was forbidden by
the president to continue and the
session ended in disorder.
Saravia Is Arrested.
Saravia was arrested tonight at Ri
vera, and officials said they thought the
revolutionary venture had been thwart-
ed. They added that the supposed
leader. son of the late Aparicio SaraVia
who led an unsuccessful revolution IN
1901. had planned to dissolve the Ad-
ministrative Council. which shares the
executive powers. and both chambers
of Congress if the march on Monte
video had succeeded.
The governments suggestion that his
activity was linked with that of Com
munists in Montevideo was based or
the theory that the Communists had
financed him. Troops were sent to the
frontier to reinforce those that already
had erected sandbag barricadeS along
the intended route of Saravia's fol-
lowers, believed to have been merce-
narieS recruited in Brazil

Lost the Confidence
Of the People

If Mr.. Hoover has lost the
confidence of the people; if
there is more resentment of
him than of any other Presi-
dent in history, it is because
the people have concluded
on the record - that he has
not played fair with them.
They have not forgotten
the unprecedentedly reckless
and grotesque promises and
statements with which he
won their support in 1923.
Business had been put upon
the basis of permanent
prosperity" by the Mellon
regime; and Mr.. Hoover was
going to "eliminate pow
erty." And poverty that
threatened starvation came
to millions Immediately in
the wake of his induction
into office.
Even then they were not
ready to conclude that they
had voted for a mythical
man who did not exist.
1t has required three years
of unfair dealing with the
public, of misrepresentation
of conditions by Mr.. Hoover
utterly to deprive him of the
confidence of the people.
He misrepresented busi-
ness conditions instead Of
warning the public until the
moment the crash came; they
resent it.
He misrepresented and
sought to conceal the state of
unemployment for two years;
they resent it.
He bitterly fought the
Wagner measures for the re-
lief of the jobless; they re-
sent it.
He yielded to Joe Grundy,
the notorious lobbyist, who
had "raised a million dol
lars" for his election, over
the protest of economists
and business men on the pro-
hibitive tariff act which has
driven away the best Gus
toners we ever had; they re-
sent it.
He too transparency stood
for the power combines
against the people; they re-
sent it.

Mr.. Hoover spoke of "sports-

deprecated "harsh personali-
ties A few million people
with memories reaching back
to 1928 will recall the kind
of "sportsmanship" which
characterized the Hoover
campaign, and the kind of
personalities spread through
the national committee with
the knowledge and unques-
tionably with the consent of
til e leader regarding Al
Smith.
These Representatives" had
nothing to do with Al Smith s
public record; Mr.. Hoover
will know what is meant.
The attacks upon Mr..
Hoover are upon the policies
and the public record of the
President on which he is ask
ing a vindication. His COM
mittee is putting out a slogan
Hold on to HOVER
which is about as antiquated
and amusing in the light of
what has happened to those
who held on to Hoover, as
"Prosperity at Home and
Prestige Abroad. =" To at
tack that record is not to in
dulge in personalities. The
attacks are on the head of
the Administration under
which we have descended to
such depts of human misery
as we never have known be-
fore.

Few Man Have
Been Given Jobs

Equally unfair and un-
truthful in their implica-
tions were Hoover's attacks
on the public construction
measures urged by the
Democrats in House and
Senate to put men to work.
He calls the House measure
a "pork BARREL" and i'm
plies, of course, that indie
fensible projects were in
cluded in the bill.
And the truth is that not
a single project was in the
bill which had not been
passed upon and approved
by the Hoover administra-
ton. And the truth is no
program of public work
would have been adopted
but for the fight made by
the Democrats in Congress
under the leadership Of
Wagner and against the Bit
ter opposition of Mr.. Hoover
himself.
Having been forced to
yield because of the des-
perate appeals of welfare
workers and the rising in
dignation of the people, the
same Mr.. Hoover, who no.
toriously opposed everything
of the sort until compelled
to surrender, now has the
temerity to claim credit for
the "pork barrel" that
should have put men to
work long ago.
We say "should" because
it is also notorious that the
Hoover administration re
fused to turn a wheel to
take advantage of the op-
portunity to put men to
work through the instru-
mentality. of the Democratic

Falsehood Is a
Poor Straw to Grab

As we pointed out before,
Mr.. Hoover in his "marvel-
Gus Speech - which the
claque knew would be
"marvelous" before it had
been written, did not scruple
to misrepresent facts. When
he told the farmers that the
Democrats proposed to drop
the duties on farm products
he must have misrepresented
deliberately; for the Demo
crat platform makes no
such pledge, and Mr.. Roose-
welt, at Sioux City, as Mr..
Hoover we'll knew, said
specifically the opposite.
Some Republican papers
editorialized on Roosevelt s
opposite statement, and Mr..
Hoover must have known
the truth when he deliber-
ately stated that which is
not true.
A drowning man notori-
ously will grasp at a straw
to save himself, but false
hood is a poor straw at

IF anything were lacking
Ito show the desperate
fears of the regime in
power in Washington it is
shown in the claque over
the Des Moines speech of
Mr.. Hoover, so transparently
organized.
The Hoover writer's sat
with their pencils poised
over the paper; the press
was prepared with inter
views from such ardent
champions Of the average
man as Jim Watson; and
columns are being written
to convince us that after
all, he who was to "elimi-
nate poverty" give us a
chicken in every pot, "
maintain the standard of
living for the workingman"
and "put agriculture On a
par with industry" is the
miracle man" he was
painted four years ago.
But it is just too bad
that at this juncture, in the
midst of the claque, the
stock market suffered "the
severest reaction since Oc-
tober" with stocks declin-
ing two to eight points the
day after; and that private
charity should announce
that there are 100000 job
less men in New York city

But if the truth were known
they admire men for this very
trait.

Often they will speak out
plainly in his presence in re-

they dislike.
