Ex-President's Family Starts
North After Hostile DEM
onStrati n at Miami

MIAMI, Aug. IS G.N.SO With
the denunciatory shouts Of their
erstwhile subjects ringing in their
ears, the family of Gen. Gerardo
Machado, deposed president of
Cuba, sped northward to New
York today on their flight into
exile from the island republic.
There they plan to join Machado
later for a voyage to Europe.
Ten Cuban expatriates, exiled
from Cuba during the Machado
regime, languished in jail in the
wage Of the aristocratic refugees.
Demonstration Staged
Members of a group Of 100 Gu
bans gathered at the station and
staged an anti-Machado demon
stration. The ten were arrested
when police waded into the crowd
to quell the disturbance. They
were to stand trial today on dis
orderly conduct charges.
The wife of the depoSed preSi-
dent, Mrs. Gerardo Machado, and
the eight members of her family,
landed yesterday at Key West
after fleeing from Camaguey in
the presidential yacht, Cananero.
They were brought here late
yesterday and left for New York
at 10 o'clock last night.
Their arrival here was the sig
nal for an outbreak Of insulting
shouts from the crowd of Cubans
who gathered at the station. Po-
lice had repeatedly warned the
CubanS against a dem onStration.
"KilI Them" Is Shout
AS members of the family STEP
ped from the train, closely
guarded by sheriff deputies. they
were greeted by cries of "Abajo
Machado!" Kill them!" Butcher
them!"
Mrs. Machado, her three comely
daughters and Sons-in-laW, and
their retinue Of servants, walked
with disdain through the police
lane that barred the derisive
crowd. Not by any movement did
members of the party acknowl-
edge the presence of the crowd.
The exile group included Mrs.
Machado; her three daughters,
Mrs. Rafael Sanchez. Mrs. Emilio
Obregon and Mrs. Ramon Grau;
three sons-in-law, Gen. Jose Emilio
Obregon, DR.. Ramon Grau and
Senor Rafael Sanchez, and two
granddaughters, Isella and Nenira
Obregon. E@

Roosevelt, Ambassador Welles,
and the American Government
for their part in ending Ma
chado's regime.
Some merchants displayed the
American flag in recognition of
the American attitude.
The demand of the students
for dissolution Of Congress and
trial of it's members who obeyed
Machado is not being taken seri-
ously by authorities and proba'
bly, will be ignored.
Congressman Disappear
At present, the Cuban law
seems to prevent either President
or the supreme court from dis
solving Congress. Reforms to be
made will probably remedy this
situation.
Actually there is little need to
dissolve the Congress, since scores
Of members have disappeared,
mobs having stormed and wrecked
their homes. The problem is to
elect a new Congress prior to
the next general election in No
vember, 1884.
Welles is reported working this
out with De Cespedes.
Despite the shooting this morn
ing, the city is much quieter. The
destroyer Taylor is expected to
leave soon.
Half Of the troops sent into
the city have returned to their
regular posts. Police have re-
Sumed normal duty, and regular
traffic is again operating, for the
first time in 10 days.

people. He continued:
eve shah not know for some
weeks or months how effective
the new measure will prove to
be in spreading work, raising
wages and increasing consumer

powerful element working for

rector of the Consumers Advisory

He denied any personal griev-
ance against either General
Johnson or Mrs. Rumsey. He
said:

Prof. Ogburn said General
Johnson was right in spending
most of his time on promotion of
codes and unemployment prob
lens. He added:
"But I was looking ahead to
that time in the near future
when industry will have come
completely under the rule of

TRADE REVIVAL
/ CHIEF OBJECT
Of OFPROGRAN
WeIIes Plans to Start Nego-
tiations as Soon as New
Government Is Ready
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
Ambassador Sumner Welles has
assured the new president of Cuba,
DR.. Carlos Manuel de Cespedes,
that as soon as he completes the
formation Of his government and
gets it functioning, the United
States will be prepared to begin
trade discussions designed to aid
the economic rehabilitation of the
island republic.
Welles has informed President
De Cespedes that the American
Government will gladly extend a
helping hand to Cuba if it en-
barks on a recovery program, it
was learned today.
Four Point Plan Ready
AS soon as the new government
Is established, Welles first step
in lendino assistance will be to
present President Roosevelt's four
point program for a new deal"
in Cuba. This will be presented
merely as a suggestion on the
part Of friends of Cuba" rather
than a proposal from the Ameri-
can Government.
However, it represents plan
drafted by the President himself
prior to his departure from Hyde
Park last week. Although the four
points in the program have been
suggested before as possible meth
DDS Of bringing about the eco
romic rehabilitation of the island
republic, it was Mr.. Roosevelt him.
self who drafted them into plan.
ROOSevelt's Program
AS drafted by the President, the
program is:
Establishment of the en-
ployes of Cuban sugar and to-
bacco plantations on small par
GELS Of land on which they could
produce their own subsistence
when unemployed.
REORGANIZATION of the in
ternal and external debts of the
Cuban government.
3-Inclusion of Cuba with
Mexico and the United States
and it's possessions in a regional
Sugar-control agreement.
"A new reciprocal tariff
agreement between the United
States and Cuba designed to
improve trade relations.
The first point in the program
not only is in line with Mr.. Roose-
velt's back-to to-the-soil movement in
this country, but fits in with eco
nomic measures sponsored by the
So-called ABC group in Cuba. This
Is the secret political organization
which opposed former President
Machado.
Large Estates Doomed
One of the primary economic
changes it advocates is legislation
to develop small rural properties
and bring about the gradual dis
appearance of large estates by
such means as a progressive land
tax.
It also favors the development
of cooperative societies with the
aid of agricultural banks; enact
ment of monetary legislation, in
cluding the organization Of a
national bank, which will extend
more elastic credit to small pro-
ducers; the naturalization OF
public services which tend to be
monopolistic, and the adoption
Of advanced social legislation.
Meanwhile, the State Depart
nnent was planning to order the
withdrawal of the American war
ships from Cuban waters within
the next "a hours if conditions
remain quiet.

u ISCHIEF often is unintentional.
~ n Indeed, the one who commits
jNv it very often has no idea that
Vl 1t is mischief. But the re-
suit is just as bad Tor the
victim as if it were done with delper-
ate intent. Just take the case OF the
black Chuck in the field next to the
land of Farmer Brown. That plack
Chuck had dug himself home there.
He had no hard feelings toward tne
owner of that land. In fact, he didn't
give that owner SO much as one wee
Thought. He was simply obeying law
of life. which was to make nome
where he could find plenty to eat with
little risk of harm from enemies. That
field gave promise Of being a rich feed
ing ground with the finest OF grasses
and the sweetest of clover. ;,
So he dug a house there and piled
the sand in front Of the entrance 10
make a mound, and it never had en-
tered his black head that that mound
of sand would offend anybody or tnat
that hole which was the entrance 10
his underground house might harm any
one. He was wholly unaware that IN
digging that home right where ne olo
he was in mischief, so OF course the
mischief was wholly without intent.
But this made no difference to the
farmer who owned that field. That
was his meadow and the grass and
clover growing there was intended Tor
his COWS and horses. He had none TO
spare for hungry Chucks. Moreover,
close by a garden was to be planted
and he couldn't afford to have MS
tender plants eaten almost as 1ast as
they appeared above ground. as would
surely be the case with Chuck nv-
ing so near Then, too, that mound
of sand would interfere with the now
ing machine when cutting the grass,
and there was always the chance that
horse might step In the hole and
break his leg. So when a hunter nao
come along the farmer had told nun
about that Chuck and the hunter had
hidden behind the stone wall to watch
for him.
But it was Johnny Chuck, who had
fought and driven out the black
Chuck. the hunter saw and tried to
shoot, while all the time the black
Chuck was hiding In that very wall
behind which the hunter lay. When
at last the hunter gave up and went
away Johnny scampered over to the
stone wall on his way back to Farmer
Browns land, where hunters with
terrible guns were not allowed: He
found the black Chuck still hiding IN
the wall.
"You can have your house and your
field: don't want them" said Johnny
gruffly You'll be lucky II that hunter
doesn't get you with his terrible gun. "
"I heard his terrible gun and peek
| ing out I saw him hiding behind this
wall but I couldn't see who he was
! shooting at Who was it?" inquired
| the black Chuck
"It was me-" replied Johnny grimly
and if you had been there in my
place it would have been you"
Where is he now?" asked the black
| Chuck anXiously.
He has gone away" replied
Johnny, but he'll be back again as
sure as my name is Johnny Chuck"
