LEE WILL EXPLAIN
ROAD UPKEEPPLA
Representatives of Prince
Georges Towns to Hear
Talk Tomorrow.
By Staff Correspondent of The Star.

BY Stan Correspondent OF The star.
ANNAPOLIS, Md, January 27.-The
effect on the various Incorporated
towns of the State Administrations
plan to maintain county roads from
the gasoline tax will be explained by
Maj E. Brooke Lee. member OF the
State Roads Commission at meeting
of representatives of Prince Georges
County incorporated towns in the DEM
ocratic Club headquarters, Mount
Rainier, tomorrow.
Delegate William F. Keys OF Prince
Georges County, who is arranging the
meeting, has tentatively set the time
for the gathering at pm.
Will Receive Full Value.
From an explanation of the details
of the administration road plan. given
by Maj. Lee, to group of delegates
here this week, Delegate Keys believes
the towns will be better off under the
new plan than at present, as they will
receive the full value for any direct
tax imposed instead of only rs per
cent rebate permitted By the system now
in force.
. An agreement on the part Of the
State Roads Commission to use the
same labor forces and machinery en-
ployed by the county governments,
where these are found suitable, after the
commission takes over the upkeep Of
county roads systems was an intrinsic
part of the compact under which a
majority of the Democrats in the State
Senate have consented to Gov. Ritchies
plan of extending the 1l2-cent lateral
roGd tax to maintenance and conStruc-
ton of back roads.
A major objection to the Governors
program was that expensive road ma
chinery bought by the county govern
mentS would be left to rust when the
State Roads Commission stepped in and
that the road forces now employed by
the counties would be dismissed in ia
vor of employees selected by the State
Roads Commission. thus creating the
possibility of gigantic political ma
chine, all controlled from Baltimore.
Not to Scrap Machinery.
Maj. Lee told the Senator'S it was
learned, that the State Roads Commits
sion has no intention of wasting funds
by scrapping available road machinery
and that all such machinery that is
owned by the counties and fit for service
Will be utilized if the commission takes
over the primary roads systems.
The same thing applies to the en-
ployes OF the county road boards" Mai
Lee said. "All that can do the work.
and will do the work, will be retained
The commission will not retain roads
employees whose principal usefulness is
their vote-getting power in the home
neighbOrhoods.

CLEARED Of
CUBA PLOT
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
Informed that certain groups
in Cuba were about to charge
American Ambassador Sumner
Welles with conspiring with the
ousted army officers against the
present government of President
Grau San Martin, the State De-
partment today issued a formal
denial.
The department declared Welles
had nothing to do with the &C.
tion of the army officers in TAX
ing refuge in the National Hotel
following establishment of the
present government.
Denial Issued
It aslo denied Welles had any,
thing to do with subsequent
events which led to the battle
about the National Hotel which
resulted in the surrender of the
officers to the government. The
statement read:
"The State Department has
been informed that an effort is
being made to involve the
American Embassy in Havana
in the action taken by Cuban
army officers in seeking refuge
In the National Hotel and in
subsequent events.
NO PART IN MOVE
with regard to this matter,
the department can state un-
equivOcably that far from in
stigating the assembly of the
army officers in the National
Hotel, Ambassador WelleS had
no knowledge of their intention
until the event took place.
Moreover, Ambassador WelIeS
was equally unaware Of any Of
their subsequent plans, having
never spoken to any Of them,
either individually or collec-
lively, or attempted to COM
municate with them after they
took refuge in the National
Hotel"
