CUBA IS HAVING l SOME NATURE OF l REVOLUTION
Bonlbings in Havana TO-
 day and Disruption of l Lines Between Capital and Leading Cities

 Havana, Feb 24-(UP)-Bomb tngs in Havana early to-day, and disruption of communication lines between the capital and principal cities on the island, led to uncon- kirmed reports that a revolutionary movement had started against the Cuban government of President Eerardo Bachado.
 \ The possibiluity was seen that rebels might have arranged for against the government to-day, the anniversary of the "Grito de Liber- tad" the cry for freedom which started the revolt against Spain in 1895, The day is a national holi- day, and the government was alert Tor demonstrations.
 A small bomb near the monu- knent of the Malecon, Havana s beautiful sea front drive, dedicated 10 the victims of the battleship Maine disaster. The ship was blown up in Havana harbor in 1898.
 A dance at the Centro Asturiano, A Spanish society here, was broken hp by the explosion of several bmall bombs. Police said the bombs were "petards," small tor bedoes, and pointed out that there was no damage or injury despite khe fact that one petard exploded In the coat pocket of Bartolome Portuondo, a guest at the dance. Portuondo was arrested. One po- kiceman was slightly burned when ' petard exploded near him.
 There was no damage in the ex- blosion of the small bomb near ! The Maine monument.
 Havana was uncertain whether khe wholesale interruption of com munications was merely part of a plan to harass the government Or Mas a prelude to fighting. Months of disturbances here have left no doubt of the intention of the revo- autionists, both in Cuba and Tn exile, to attempt to overthrow the government, but it remained to be days holiday to defy the strong army and police forces loyal to Nachado.
 Land lines between here and Santiago de Cuba, at the eastern end of the island, went out soon after g o'clock last night, when telephone circuits and railroad  telegraph lines ceased to function.
 Government lines were under stood to have been interrupted about 1O:30 ?. m., including com- 0unications with Pinar Del Rio province, at the western end of the Island.
 The Cuban Telephone company's circuits between here and Cama- guey, capital of Camaguey prov Ince, were interrupted. These lines went out one by one, indicating that they were being cut by raid- ing parties.
 The telephone line to Pinar del gaio was still functioning early ko-day.
 Radio and submarine cable re- ports to the United Press from Santiago de Cuba said the city was nuiet. Communication lines be- tween Santiago and Hatuey, Si- baniou, and Ignacio, all in Cama- euey province, were out.

He walked with a swing and lived up TO

cret Of his likes and dislikes. On the otner
hand. he'd work 16 hours day. and he could
think up lots of ways to save q producer money,
or to spend it for him.
There were about three actors and about
900 actresses whom Bart Jones liked He'd
had a good many love affairs. in spite OF which
he professed no very high opinion Of women.
THE thing that attracted him to Lily Has
] tings was that she wasn't an actress but
q stenographer. He ran across her on the loe
and told somebody that she was too good
looking TO have any brains.
Brains or no brains. he found out that Lily
didn't care how long she worked. which Is not
the worst way to . directors heart. On the
Coast the Law says that . girl has 10 put On her

to prevent her coming back after dinner to .

That was how Bart and Lily really got
acquainted with each other. She DIDN'T drink,
she didn't smoke; she could hear profanity
without wncing. but she didn't repeat any Of n.
Bart made up his mind that Lily Vas strictly
business Then he decided that she was good
deal Of q lady. Next he discovered thst he
hked to have her around. So. IN the coGrse
of six or seven months he married her.
About two months after that Lily began to
tease him to put her in the pictures That was
the last thing in the world Bart wanted How

SEEKS TO ATTRACT VISITORS

Harry Carr, special feature
writer Of Los Angeles Times
has the following to say;
"It would be unwise, for
instance, for Califorians to urge
tourists to come to California
without saying something about
the rest of the Western country
as travellers want to know a
bout Arizona, New Mexico and
other states.
An authority has said that
the attraction for tourists is 35
per cent history and 65 percent
scenery. Here in Arizona, you
have an abundance of both.
Such national monuments,
scenic and historic spots as the
Grand Canyon, Montezama
Well, the Petrifed Forest, Fort
Apache, the Apache Trail high
way Casa Grande Ruins and
others Of equal interest, should
be pointed out forcibly to the
visitors of the Southwest"
Mr.. Carr said he is particu-
larly interested in a study of
the first Indian inhabitants Of
Arizona.
81 am told that the scenery
in Eastern Arizona is unsur-
passed in grandeur and rugged
beauty. / want to take a trip
over the famous Coronado Trail
and swing around through the
nothern part of the state to
view some of the natural wond-
ers of that section.
Hopi land has particular at
traction for me. | will take my
time and travel through that
section to study the country,
the people and their habits"
Mr.. Carr said the All Year
Club is preparing to launch a
national advertising campaign
to bring more tourists to the
Southwest. .---Ex.
