CRISIS
SHADOWS END
Of PRESIDENT

GUAYAQUn, Ecuador. Aug. 16
GN.S)-A new Latin-American
crisis developed in the wake Of
Cuba's revolution today with ap-
proval by the Ecuadorean con-
gress Of a resolution demanding
the immediate resignation of
President Juan de Dios Martinez
Mera.
The president, who has fled
from the presidential palace and
taken up residence in the home
Of wealthy Italian, was accused
in the resolution of inability to
deal with the nations pressing
financial. social and economic
problems.
In much the same manner as
the deposed President Gerardo
Machado Of Cuba looked to the
army for support, Martinez Mera
made a dramatic move to pre-
serve his regime by appointment
Of Col. Albert Carlos Romero, q
prominent army leader, as secre-
tary Of the interior, succeeding
DR.. Manuel Balarezo, resigned.
The congressional resolution
was the latest step in a sys-
tematic campaign by opposition
lists to unseat Martinez Mera,
whom they accuse Of plunging
Ecuador into chaos by imposi-
ton Of exchange control and ex-
tension of huge unsecured loans
to various individuals.
Martinez Mera left the presi-
Dental palace after a series Of
violent clashes between troops
and revolutionaries, resulting in
numerous casualties. A sign
bearing the Italian colors was
placed over the doorway Of the
house where he took refuge, des-
ignating it as italian property.

ALEXANDR|ANS
ASK S6O0,000

By a. vote of s to 3 the Alex
andria city council has decided to
borrow 100000 from the Public
Works Board, to be used in the
building of a new high school, an
addition to the Parker Grey
School for colored, and street and
sewer improvements.
Most Of the sewer and street
work will be done in the annexed
territory.
A motion by Councilman Da-
vison to increase the loan to
$750,000 was defeated.
The three members who voted
against the loan, Councilmen
Lawler, King and Dwyer, said it
will mean an increase in the
tax rate of the city. Judge Bar
ley said that the increase will
not be over 10 cents a hundred
on the assessed valuation, or AZ
cents on the actual valuation.

LIQUOR FLEETS
AGAIN STORM
j, s. COAST
BY International News Service


Foreign rum ships are reap
pearing off the Eastern Coast Of
the United States in considerable
numbers, according to informa-
tion reaching the Treasury De-
partment.
With the relaxation of prohi-
bition enforce m ent, resulting
from the drastic reduction of en-
forcement agents and the sharp
cut in the Coast Guard, the
liquor Smugglers have become in.
creasingly bold in the last few
weeks.
Force Is Inadequate
More than a thousand men
and hundreds Of ships-princi-
pally of the rum chaser type
have been dropped from the ac-
tive forces of the Coast Guard.
The present fleet is sufficient to
meet the ordinary life saving and
navigation protection service, but
hardly can cope with the rum
runners.

that every effort was being made
to defeat the smugglers with the
available forces. However, the
long coast line, the demand for
the smuggled product, and the
numbers and strong organization
of The "rummieS" present an eX-
ceedingly difficult problem.
Want to Cleanup
Anticipating the repeal Of the
Eighteenth Amendment, the rum
interests are making a strong
drive to "clean up" before their
exceedingly profitable business
VaniSheS.
Officials expressed the opinion
that while the rum ships virtual
~ all are of foreign registry,
many of them are owned and
financed by American interests.
The 'ands of Miquelon and St.
Pierre are bases for most Of the
smugglers.

MANUAL TRADES
LEAD ACCIDENT
TOLL IN NATION
Vehicles Listed Fourth as
Cause of Injuries in
Survey.
BY DAVID DIETZ
Scripps- Howard Science Editor

Mechanical guards, once recorded
as the solution of the entire prob
lem Of acciednt prevention, now
are known to be only one necessary
item in the safety program, the Ma
tional Safety Council, meeting in
Chicago, was told by G. B. Auel,
manager of the employees service
of the Westinghouse Electric and
Manufacturing Company.
Among the other important items
listed by Mr.. Auel were the follow
ing: Minimum labor turnover, good
health, contentment, neatness,
cleanliness. the English langauage.
good lighting, proper wearing APP
parel, education, X-ray apparatus.
air-conditioning apparatus and
photo-electric cells.
Mr.. Auel urged that proper safety
devices be regarded not merely as
negative devices, things to prevent
accidents, but as positive devices de-
signed to increase production, les
sen costs. and permit the worker
to function normally.
More Lighting Urged
Indirect results of accident pre-
vention are worth more careful
study than they have heretofore re-
ceived," he said.
Who is there will deny that light,
besides enabling work to be better
seen and done, hazards observed and
accidents, therefore, avoided, also
adds cheer to a place; that neat
ness and cleanliness, involving the
removal of dirt and distractions,
produce a feeling of comfort among
the workers; that safe working con-
ditions relieve or avoid mental
strain; that good health is a distinct
asset to every worker?"
Some interesting facts as to the
nature of industrial accidents is
given in the 1888 edition of Acct
dent Facts" published by the Ma
tional Safety Council.
Edition Lists Facts
From them Mr.. Auel arrives at
the following summary of industrial
accidents in the five states during
one year:
