delegates Of the opposition, will not per-
NIT these conferences to come to a
close without finding that accord that
common agreement. which will satisfy
the unanimous desires of the Cuban
people for moral peace and tranquility
and for the opportunity to regain their
economic prosperity"
In the two hours in which the dele
gates were closeted they achieved one
tangible result-a unanimous agree
ment that the long series Of amnesties
and pardons for violations of the elec-
ton code was at an end with the
amnesty bill passed by Congress this
week at the request Of the President
The measure covers all political offenses
since January, 1927.
Prisoners Released.
Seventeen former soldiers and SO
civilians were released from jail in Ha-
vana Province in application of the
amnesty bill. Interior courts were
as fast as their status could be estab-
lished. The release of the prisoners in
Havana Province cleared its Jail of that
type Of prisoners.
Those freed here included Camilo

have an important bearing on steps
taken to expand the Districts relief
program Johnstone said he could not
comment on the move by the Wash
ington Council of Social Agencies
seeking to have the District ask for q
grant Of 100000 for the care Of tran
sient here. since that matter was be-
ing handled by another Federal Of
flcer II such q grant is made. he said
it would be included in the total Of
whatever additional sum may be al
lotted the District by the Federal ad-
ministrAtion.
The Federal ofIicial said he WAS con-
sulting with District officers regarding
the advisability Of centralizing the en-
tire administration Of the Districts re-
lief program under one head. Such
Q step would involve the taking over
by the District of the operations Of the
District Of Columbia Committee on
Employment. . private organization,
supported in part by the Community
Chest, which has been working in CO.
operation with District ofilcials. john
stone said he had no criticism to make
of the manner In which District and
private agencies here had met relief
needs, but that he felt the time HAD
come when the whole program must
be co-ordinated, 50 a. to give speedier
and fuller help.
He said he believed weekly allotments
to families on relief roles were made
quate and should be increased He was
informed between $40 and $22 = week
now goes to families on rolls. Citing
the need for speedier handling Of relief
cases he pointed out that there are now
on the Districts rolls applications for
relief from 800 persons who have not
been interviewed because Of the crush
of work on the hands Of local relief
workers.
Censiders Relief Stations.
Johnstone said he also had under
consideration . policy which would In
volve establishment q district or branch
relief stations in scattered sections OF
the city 20 that IN applicant would not
have to come to one central heAdQuAr-
ters and wait in line for hours before
he could even present his case.
Il feel that splendid work has been
done here in the relief Of unemploy-
ment, including the work by the Com
mittee on Employment, but feel that
the job to be done Is much greater than
was realized last Winter" JOhnSt0ne
said. washington was the last city to
feel the effects of the depression, and
probably 1t will be the last to recover
from 1t. Furthermore the national re-
covery program likely will not help
Warrington as much or a. quickly %
it will other sections because Of the
absence Of great industrial operations
here"

commission, the appointment of
Alfred E. Hill of Virginia to
succeed J. 7. Johnson of Du-
luth, resigned last week,
cinches the control for the
ranges. The other members
are DR.. w. A. Coventry of Du-
luth, and DIR. H. R. Weirick of
Hibbing. Mr.. Hill is a former
state legislator from this dis
trict and we'll known in this
city. Many friends congratu-
late him on his appointment.
Duluth has had control of the
board for several years and
some of the range political
lights have protested with the
statement that Duluth was
hogging the relief payments.
These statements have been
denied by A. P. Cook, executive
secretary of the commission,
who produced an array of
figures which somewhat took
the wind out of the sails of the
propagandists.

On This
Occasion
Just q few thoughts by the Editor
on things Material and Immaterial.

The second of the series of
ads on the mining situation in
serted by the mining companies
appears on the fourth page of
this paper instead of on the
last where it was the week be-
fore. 1t will be unnecessary to
comment on the subject matter
contained in the advertisement
it fully explains itself. The
cancellations of leases as given
in the ad most forcibly pictures
the menace which hangs over
the head of the industry in the
state.

In common with other lines, the resort
business in Northern Minnesota has
been severely affected by the depression.
Congressman Knutson informs us that
a number of owners have written him
that unless they can secure refinancing,
they will lose their property which, in
many instances represented the labor
Of lifetime.
Acting on the knowledge and pleas
contained in the letters, Congressman
Knutson introduced on Monday, April
3, bill to amend the Home Loan Bank
law, which passed the last congress, to

Down in the Sixth Commits
sioner District the Communists
are raising particular pande-
monium in the administrative
affairs of Commissioner Koski.
AS soon as he decides to pillow
out the roads or do some work
in the vicinity of Markham, a
flying wedge of reds is or
ganized to block the affair. So
far no one has been able to dis
cover just what these obstruc-
tors want. 1t was stated by
one of their number that they
wanted to have all the work
done by members of the organi-
cation and that the balance of
the people in the district could
go hang for all they cared.
Every time a Sixth District
truck runs over the road in
some work, it is necessary to
call out the reserves of the
sheriffs office.
