 Billion and Half of American Interests to Be
 Guarded

Cuban industry, and Americans Lare large holders in Cuba's $780, oo0,00 of foreign indebtedness.
 Cuba's floating debt has been on the increase. and unless there is a readjustment of the tax system and finances generally there is danger of deficit of perhaps s10,000, 900 In the budget. Tremendous sums now are need. ed to service the foreign and inter- national debts, which increesed greatly under the regime of de- posed President Gerardo Machado
 The foreign debt when he went in office was $5S,000, ,000. The inter- nal debt was 65,500,0O0. To com plete his am mbitious public works. Machado floated the public works debt, now totaling $s0.D00, 900. Under the Chadbourne sugar plan $28, 100000 in bonds were fioated.
 Pay of many public employees Is months in arrears. The Machado government, unable to collect some taxes, in desperation levied others, changing rates and methods as necessary to meet changing condi- tions. It is the hope of the present government to stabilize taxation and the debt structure.

 Havana. Aug 1s-(U.P.-Pres- ident Carlos Manuel De yCespedes called his cabinet together for its first ofiicial session to-day, plan- ming prompt action to start Cuba's new deal.
 As a preliminary the new pres ident conferred, with Sumner elles, American ambassador, and had . series of talks with individ- ual cabinet ministers.
 Following Welles' announce. ment that he had instructions to establish official relations, with the new government, Edwards Bello, Chilean Charge D'Affaires, an- nounced he would notify De Ces- pedes of Chiie's recognition and Mexican Charge D'Affaires Reyes Spindola said that Mexico automa- ticaliy recognized the government when 1t took offlce.
 The directorate of the powerful students organization notified the government that 1t would have the students support provided 1t dis solved the present congress.
 At Santiago 1000 demonstrating students demanded that deposed President Gerardo Machado be held responsible for the murder of the student Mello, assassinated in Mexico City apparently by Por- rista gunmen.
 The labor situation continued to cause the government anxiety. Secretary of Treasury Joaquin Martinez Saenz appealed to port employers to accede to the dock workers demands for union re. cognition. They refused, but con- tinued for another day their offer to increase wages.
 There was opposition to the call- ing of an early election. as 1t Is feared that politicians of the old school would emerge as leaders. To defer the election until November. 1884, as the ABC organization in- sists, would be to give the younger leaders a chance to take their places in government.
 Sporadic, instances of violence continued. Sergeant Ricardo Her. rera, chauffeur to former Secretary or war ALDertO f1eTTeTd, was NH" ed by unknown men in front of the central police station.
 Ampara Gonzales, of the secret police, charged with the assassin alton eight years ago of Armando Andres, director of the newspaper El Dia, was shot and killed by sol- diers.

Washington, Aug 18-(U.P.)- Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Tugweirs present western inspec- tion trip Is faintly reminiscent of the Florida excursion enjoyed by Secretary of Interior Wilbur last winter
 Wilbur chose a period of cold weather here for his jaunt to Flor ida to inspect a proposed national park. Tugwell has dashed out of Washington at the height of the hay fever season.
 TugwelI Is inspecting national forests, but he was shilling con- stantly a few days before he left, and out in the wide open spaces where ragweed won't grow, solace exists for hay fever victims.
 one of the real troubles Tugwell had with hayfever was trying to keep his usual sartorial splendor up to par. He always carries a fancy handkerchief fixed just so in his breast pocket. He is considered one of the best dressed brain trust- CTS in town. But when hayfever struck him, his pockets bulged with kerchiefs and he lost that well-dressed look.
 When Myron Taylor and Charles M. Echwab won't talk they wont.a Newspaper correspondents at the White House the other day tried vainly to wheedle something out of the two big steel men.
 Finally in desperation one news paperman grabbed Taylor by his coat lapel.
 "You'd better come clean. We're stockholders in your company"
 Taylor looked at him and said dryly: .,.,..,.u..
 Schwab grinned and took Tay-
 "congratulations MT Taylor on meeting some of your stockhoid-
 Taylor shrugged his shoulders and replied: "Well this isn't stockholders meeting.' The tive then drove away.
 Which reminds of pudgy mid dle-aged newspaperman who LOOKS as if he owned few oil wells.
 Leaders of the industry were walking into General Hugh 8. Johnson's office at the MIRA yester- day when the reporter decided to 20 in with them. He figured on an exclusive story if he wasn't recog- nized.
 After the industrialists had found easy chairs, Johnson arose and yaid:
 'Ail have to tell you gentlemen ts that the hearing has been post- poned until 4:30 p. m."
 Everyone walked out.

It was Schumacher who stopped the

superiority on attack.
In the matter of gameness
and hustle the rivals rate on a
par and this goes for alert di-
rection, too; but in native speed
and for taking chances on the
runway the Nationals are
Standouts.
It is chiefly this willingness
to gamble for the breaks, plus
ability to take advantage of
them, that should make for
spectacular play and return the
Griffmen victors in as hard
fought a series as any in recent
base ball history.
The Senators may have to 60
the limit of seven games to
turn the trick, but so great is
our faith in their prowesS we
still look for them to triumph
even should they lose the first
two.
That's the deep-seated con-
viction Of guy who, before the
season opened, gave them no
better than a fighting chance
to unhorse the Yankees and
tabled the Giants for sixth
place.
We were wrong then, which
isn't unusual, but we had a lot
