Deficient I'm Numbers
They say they woefully are def

gress they have been reduced to a
total Of 1890 and Of these a bare
5000 could with difficulty be
scraped together for service IN the
Caribbean should the worst come to
the worst. The rest are scattered
clear around the world. including
Peiping and Shanghai
II IS estimated that a force OF at
least 5000 would be required IN case
the United States is forced to send
any troops at all TO Cuba.
In Washington. however, the i'm
preston remains firm that Presi-
dent Roosevelt has not yet played
his trump card TO bring about a
peaceable solution.
That President Machado must
Withdraw before peace can be re-
stored and before economic remedies
can be applied 20 relieve the misery
and starvation in the island. is the
profound conviction there.
Several Alternatives
Therefore, 1t is said. the President
may yet do several things to bring
this about without applying force OF
arms.
l The President may withdraw
recognition from the Machado re-
CINE
, He may indicate TO American
bankers that their continued support
of President Machado would be re-
garded as an unpatriotic act akin to
trading with the enemy" Without
American financial support. Cubans
declare, Machado would have fallen
long ago

republics and obtain their co-opera-
ton 10 end the present terror

opposition as belligerentS and per
init the shipment of arms so they
can win back their liberty for them
selves
Armed Force Last Resort
In any event it Is reiterated. The
President Will not order the armed
forces of the United States to Cuba
unless and until there is no other
alternative
Even then. it is said. he will first
arm himself with the demands Of
foreign pOwerS-including the sister
nations south of the Rio Grande-
TO act to save the Cuban people
from hunger and butchery.

girl was appalled,. She sensed
that Clark was disguSted and

WITH LOAN MEN

Conferences between managers
Of local building and loan aSso-
Citations and Charles S. Jones, dis
trict manager of the Home Loan
Corporation, began here today
with view to having the aSSo-
Citations accept the corporations
4 per cent bonds in exchange for
mortgages they hold on Washing
ton homes.
Jones has pointed out that, al
though the corporations bonds
yield a lower rate of interest than
some of the outstanding mort
cages, holders of deeds Of trust
would fare better by making the
proposed exchange
The district manager said that
In all cases in which the exchange
is offered the home owners are
in such financial distress that the
making of their payments on the
mortgages is uncertain.

Opposition to any form Of airport
legislation for the Capital which did not
place the entire expense on the District

Lanham CT the H-use Committee on
Public Buildings and Grounds at the
close of hearings today en- the airport
situation here.
II do not see why the Federal Gov
ernment should be called upon to
operate an airport here any more than

vote for any bill that does not put the
entire expense on the District of c.

Representative McMillan. sponsoring
the pending bill for leasing or purchas-
ing the Washington Hoover Airport by
the Government, declared he was not
opposed to any plan which would re-
quire the District Commissioners to set
up and operate the airport. He declared
an emergency exists and that some
action must be taken at once to pre-
serve the airport.
Option Expires March 4.
In closing the testimony on behalf
of supporters Of the bill, Samuel Solo,
mon, vice president of Washington
Hoover Airport, declared the option on
Hoover Field, now held by Washington
Airport. will expire March 4.

closed after our option expires" Solo,
mon said, I'VE can't control the fate of
that land. 1t is possible that the land
may be sold for industrial purposes and
the safety Of the entire area for air.

Opposition to the purchase by the
Federal Government Of WASHINGTON
Hoover Airport was expressed by Harry
FelloweS, chairman Of the Arlington
County Board, on the ground the loss
Of taxes to the county would work an
unjust hardship. Loss Of taxes in event
Of purchase would amount to 1882

he said. This, added to the loss in
taxes due to Government condemnation

made.
These probably will be completed
within few days, although no public
announcement Is expected for some
time.
Much is believed in Washington to
depend on today's conference between
Mr.. Roosevelt and Senator Hull at
Warm Springs.
Those who say Hull has been offered
the secretaryship Of State believe hi;
selection was based on the expectation
that economic problems will predominant
during the next four years In American
diplomacy. Hull is considered one of
the outstanding economic authorities in
Congress.
Predictions that former Gov. Dern
will become Secretary of War have
caused some surprise In Washington.
Previously he had been mentioned
prominently for Secretary Of the
Interior.
Elliott Is McAdoo Ally.
John B. Elliott, who may get the
interior secretaryship If Senator Cutting
does not, is political ally of William
G. McAGoo. Formerly q Washington

The upkeep Of the automobile Of
Vice President Charles Curtis during
the fiscal year ending June 80, last, did
not cost the Federal Government $6.672,
as was recently published In the news
papers, but only $2,949.74. which In
cluded the salary OF the chauffeur at
$3.50 q month.
And Vice President Curtis contends
that this IS q very different showing.
Indeed, Mr.. Curtis, when his attention
IVES called to the article In question.
went Immediately to the ONCE Of. the
seoretary Of the Senate, whose annual
report had been made the basis of the
article on Cenate expenditures, to as
certain whether any such sum as
$6,672 had really been expended for his
automobile and chauffeur in q single
year. Had 1t proved correct, he might
have demanded the oficial scalp Of his
chauffeur. But the facts In the case
are that the Secretary Of the Treasury
in his report showed that . total Of
$6,672.85 had been drawn and Get aside

Vice President, but that ouiy -. .s4s.74

had actually been expended. while
$2,67285 had been covered into the
Treasury again. and $l,05026 remained
ON hand at the end of the fiscal year
to continue payments later.
It Is said that, as matter of fact, the
upkeep of the autcm-b bile for the Vice
President has been less than during
previous administration.
The Vice President has also called
attention to the fact that the same
article In which he was rated as having
nearly $1,000 a year for the upksep Of
his automobile showed that the Senate
had appropriated and expended total
Of $4,116, 6,455.30 for its running expenses
during the fiscal year 1882 and for
other periods, although the article
stated that the sum spent was $128, 8,227
less than this total The largest items,
of course, were for salaries Of the Sena-
tors and the Senate employees. The
report of the Secretary shows. however,
that the expenditures really were more
than half . million dollars less than
was indicated In the article. since

sufficient to prevent the adoption Of
such an agreement.
His proposal Is that beginning Tues
day the Senate should meet on all week
days, except Saturdays, from II am.
to 10 pm. From II to each day
would be devoted to the general ap-
preparation bills, none Of which has
passed the Senate yet. From S to 10
pm. each day the other legislation
would come before the Senate In the
order above mentioned. He further
proposes that after any appropriation
bill has been up for one day, each
Senator, would be limited to 20 min
utes' debate on the bill or amendment
thereafter.
Only 2411 Days Left.
There are only 241a working days

lette declared. Without any criticism
of the leadership on either side or of
individual Senators, think it Is gen.
orally, recognized that never in the re-
cent history Of this body has legisla-
ton been in such hopeless tangle."
Senator La Toilette asserted that the
country Is facing "the grevest crisis In
all its history" and that unless some
such agreement is entered into by
unanimous consent, he fears this Con-
gress will adjourn on March 4 without
having transacted pressing business
that is awaiting consideration.
