rumorS that he would make pa
triotie gesture by relinquiShine
office. there was no sign OF COM
promise in his declaration of state
of war or the attitude of his first
lieutenant, OreSteS Ferrara. Secre-
tary of state.
Maehado told the United Press
he was deyoting all his time to end
ing the strike that is in actually
a passive revolution. Ferrara said
Machado must remain in office,
that there must be no American in
teryention, and that the solution
was in ending the strike and con-
tinuing mediation by Sumner
WelleS, American ambassador.
Ant American propaganda,
broadcast from local radio stations
allegedly by the government, bore
its first fruit when Miss Hertha
Skirving, ALBANIAN. in charge OF
the commercial cable office at the
Plaza hotel, was seized by a police
man as she left the hotel and drag
ged screaming through the streets
to a police station.
Another American watched as po-
lice took her TO the central sta
ton. He telephoned Ambassador
Welles and Miss Skirving was re-
leased No reason was given for
her arrest.
Vote To Halt Strike
The incident was attributed sole
~ to the ti-American feeling en-
gendered among police and other
government supporters by the de-
mandatory breakfasts which seemed
to have emanated from government
sources.
The central strike committee vot-
ed to halt the strike of omnibus
drivers and transport workers, and
a full meeting of workers was called
today to pass on the committee rec
concentrations.
Machado was prepared to break
the strike by force If possible, pro-
vided he could not persuade work
ers to return to their jobs and feed
the hungry city.
His declaration of state OF war,
by which the army took control OF
the city, was attributed first to the
murder of policemen in revenge for
the slaughter of score OF persons
before the presidential palace Mon
day, and second to a plan TO use
the army as strike breakers.

CHILD LABOR
BAN RAISED

ROME, Aug. 10. U.P)-Italy soon
will put another ban on child Ia
Dor. and shortly, children under IA
will not be able TO work in mills
anG factories, according to regu-
lation proposed by the permanent
commission for labor legislation.
In one of its Forthcoming meet
ings this body expects to pass the
bill raising the age limit OF chill
dren from u to IA. The two years
increase in the ranks of Italian
juvenile workers was discussed at
great length in a recent meeting of
the national council OF corpora
tions.
Though the new provision had
been eagerly sought by the various
social institutions created during
the Fascist era, it already existed
in practice, for most employers
have preferred youth in their es-
adjustments averaging at least IA.
During 1881, for instance, of every
100 workers tickets issued to chill
dren between IL and Is, POS per
cent were II; q per cent l3, and
1928 per cent ii.
According to early comments,
unemployment will benefit. Social
institutions iaud the new bill, As
it will keep children in elementary
schools, sunshine and play two
more years"

U.P;-In nothing more substantial
than an 18 foot canoe, Mr.. and Mrs.
Dana U. Lamb will venture forth
next week on a honeymoon junket
to South America, they announced
today.
The frail craft, equipped with a
single sail, will carry virtually no

They plan on taking three years to
complete the trip to the Strait Of
Magellan, up the east side of the
South American coast to the Pana-
ma canal, and thence home. Lamb
said he would use spear, harpoon
and knife to obtain what food they
needed.

NEW Sc T-UP
FOR HIGHWAYS

SACRAMENTO, Aug. 10. U.P =
Earl Lee Kelly. director of public
works, announced today he mad def
initely approved a comprehensive
realignment of state highway dis
tricts and creation of q new dis
trict in San Diego.
The redistricting plan includes
removal of District headquarters
from Sacramento TO Marysville, and
transfer of District 10 headquarters
from Sacramento 10 Stockton.
Most other districts have been
aligned.
The three new headquarters will
become operative October l, al
though engineers and other EN-
ployees will begin moving to their
new posts in early September.
Kellys drastic redistricting plan
was temporarily opposed by Sacra-
mento civic authorities. The direc-
tor refused, however, to alter his
original program.
Addition of $500 miles of secon-
dairy roa6s TO the state highway
system made necessary the redis-
tricting of the state, Kelley said.
The new district will be composed
of San Diego, Imperial and that
portion of Riverside county south
and west of Indio.
1t was reported here today, in
quarters familiar with the change
outlined in the above dispatch, that
E. Z. Wallach of Fresno will De IN

known as No. Il, with headquar-
tiers at San Diego.

OF wide acquaintance and smiling service he won many
patrons until he selling 400 gallons OF gasoline a
day and he able to pay his light bill and to build
a bady-needed back bedroom on his house
Some independent filling station men saw the
cars gassng up at this corner they promptly bought
the three opposite and three new stations we're
built each coster and finer than the poor major
companys station.
The public enjoys speedy service and so the same
people paronized the but stopped at the station
that not busy This great thing for the public
for that the 400 gallons of daily sales was divided
among four stations of them was EVER busy
selling 100 gallons of gasoline day
And SO it was that the poor but industrious major
company not only unable to make any money but
unable to pay his light bin and his taxes or the in
stalments the back bedroom Likewise the three
independents who had hreefourths Of his business made
no money But it ended happily after all for the indie

gin and boosting the price of gasoline that they could
get adequate return the imvestment-which Isl
