While talking he took . revolver
from a desk. drew back the ham

Of Justice Gomez. This apparent.

SERVICE SHIPS
ORDERED BACK
TO HOME PORTS
THIS WILL LEAVE TWELVE
UNITED STATES NAVY YES
Sells OPERATING IN LOCAL
Z AND CUBAN WATERS

Orders have been received that
all coast guard vessels in these
waters, that were ordered here be-
cause of the trouble in Cuba, re-
turn to their home port on No
vember 6.
This exodus Of :, service ships
from this port will leave IL U. S.
navy vessels operating in these
and Cuban waters. This will mean
that instead of having from 6 to
IL ships in port at q time, as has
been the case in the past, there
will seldom be more than four,
1t is said.
These unexpected orders, said
one officer, work a hardship on
many of the officers and enlisted
personnel who have brought their
families to Key West expecting
ito remain for the winter season. at
least until after the Cuban cleo
lions in February.
|. Not only are there large num-
her of folks here all settled in
comfortable quarters, but quite a
few are on the way to join their
husbands, and frantic endeavors
are being made to reach the
travellers and turn them back be-
fore the trip to Key West is CON-
pleted.
Several Reasons
When asked of an officer why
this sudden change of policy on
The part Of the government, The
Citizen was told there are several
reasons for the orders. One is
that conditions in Cuba seem to
be calmer and it is believed there
will be no serious trouble in the
near future.
Another reason is that as the
time approaches for the last few
states to vote on prohibition re-
peal, bootleggers along the north
eastern coast of the United States
have increased activities in an eff
fort to get as much contraband
into the country as possible, before
repeal Is made certain.
With the absence of the coast
guard ships from the vicinity of
Boston. Mass, New London, Conn,
New York and other ports, the
bootieggers have become holder
and more successful in landing
their cargoes Of foreign distilled
liquors and brews.
Other Duties Cited
It was cited by one officer that
more than 80 foreign and domestic
ships, known to be rum runners,
we're lined up off the coast Of New
England, ready to dash in with
their cargoes.
In some quarters Il was said to-
day that the ships are going to
Miami and Sc. Petersburg. This is
positively not the case, il was stat

Gran Chaco for 35 minutes, Caus- ing much damage.
 The purpose of today's declara-
 tion, foreign observers here be- lieved, was mainly to force the
 hand of Argentina and Chile. It was hoped that making the war formally would force both nations to declare their neutrality, thus
 cutting off exports of munitions
 and supplies to Bolivia and bring
 ing her to terms.
 The efforts of the League of Ma tions and the moral force of the Kellogg Pact hitherto have kept nations from declaring war, des- bite the outbreak of hostilities, such as between Japan and China, Colombia and Peru, Greece and Turkey, and similar incidents.
 The warfare between Paraguay and Bolivia has been in progress for nearly a year, since June 15.

 the number never having been ac- curately estimated although almost certainly over 10000.
 Nineteen nations of the North American hemisphere solemnly warned the two belligerents last August that they would not recog-
 nize territorial gains won by force of arms. Paraguay, which took the formal
 step of war today, is an adherent
 of the Kellogg Pact, which binds
 nations not to resort to war as an
 instrument of national policy. The dispute is over possession Qf the Gran Chaco, an unfertile, pear-shaped region, often mistak- enly called a jungle-of about 100,- 900 square miles lying between Paraguay and Bolivia. It is bor- dered on the east by the Paraguay river. It touches also on Argen- tina and Brazil.
 The dispute has been in progress for more than 50 years. Land- locked Bolivia having been blocked on the west coast is bitterly deter minted to get an outlet to the sea by extending her borders to the navigable portions of the Paraguay river. the Paraguayans charge. On the other hand, Paraguay wants to make up for the territory she lost in the war with Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.

 The conflict was brought to a new crisis in the last week when President Eusebia Ayala of Para guay, who signed the declaration to day, announced that if the Bo- livians continued to bomb Para guayan towns "the defenseless population will sacrifice lives = those of Bolivian prisoners = in retaliation"
 Bolivia retorted that if Para guay killed a single Bolivian pris- oner. Bolivian military planes would Lombard the capital, Asun- cion and other NParaguayan cities.

 Aid Towns and Cities
 Hartford, Conn, May 10-(UP) Concerted efforts by democrats and republicans to enact legisla- ton which will aid financially hard pressed municipalities and towns was indicated to-day.
 In the legislative judiciary com mittee senate Howard w. Alcorn and Representative Raymond D. Baldwin are working on a meas ure. They expect to whip it into shape and submit it to the entire committee this week, and offer 1t to the House next week.
 House democrats in caucus yes- terday afternoon drafted resolu- ton calling on the judiciary com mittee to bring out measure for the aid of unemployed in the cit- les and towns.
 Details of the proposed Alcorn- Baldwin measure were not avail able, but it was understood they intend to take into consideration the facts that some towns and cit- ies have operated economically and should not bear the burden for those places that now are in poor economic condition because of the manner in which their af- fairs have been administered. Property taxes are recognized as already bearing a heavy burden, and it is not expected that any ad- ditional taxation will be suggested for property. The State League of Municipalities has suggested a sales tax. Any measure probably will be regarded as one of emer- geney and will be in effect for a limited time only.

 New York, May 10-(UP) = Production of electric power in the United States in the week ended May 6, increased 1-2 of 1 percent over the corresponding week of that gain over the preceding year has been registered.
