The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1933-08-25

In another place will be
found news story stating that
the City of Ely will be granted
a loan of $150,O00 and be as
sured of the money should it
be decided to secure this
amount to tide over and put
the city on a cash basis. Under
an act passed during the last
session of the state legislature,
numbered 120 and entitled
IAN act to provide for borrow
ing funds for support or re-
lief of the poor and validating
and confirming all bonds issued
or proceedings had for the
issuance of bonds for the pur-
pose embraced within the pro-
visions of this act" power is
given the county to borrow for
the relief of the poor without
going through the formality of
a bond election. AS the county
is charged with the mainten-
ance of the poor, municipalities
are not included in the act, at
tOrneys have held.
Some of the city officials feel
that the borrowing for this pur-
pose in Ely has not as yet
gotten to the acute stage and
that the city charter prevents
the issuance of bonds without
an election at this time. Others
again hold that money is
needed for poor relief and that
the amount allowed by the
state investment board should
be borrowed through a bond
election, that the election
should be held at once and the
city put on a cash basis.
In listening around it is
found that opinions in the
matter vary. There are those
unalterably opposed to bond
issues for any purposes. There
are others again who are in
favor of bonds for everything.
Those who pay direct taxes
are not keen for bonds while
those who pay no direct taxes
favor issuance of bonds on all
occasions. Citizens who am
alyzed the last bond election
vote, wherein the issuance of
bonds was defeated, make the
claim that four-fifths of the
votes in favor of bonding were
cast by residents of the mining
locations who pay a small per-
sonal property tax and no real
estate tax, this latter tax being
paid by the owner of the prop
erty under lease.
These same locations, within
the city limits, require consider

expenses, both for school and

POLICY VOICED
BY ROOSEVELT
Intervention Will Be
Below Scale of
Island Rule.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.


The United States will not in
tervene in Cuba, in the sense of
putting the affairs of that state
in order, President Roosevelt has
assured the representatives Of the
principal Latin-American nations
and has asked them to convey
this information to their respec-
tive governments.
In discussing the Cuban situa-
ton with utmost frankness, the
President did not hesitate to say
that he does not place the whole
responsibility of what is happen
ing now only on the Cuban poll
ticianS.
Certain American bankers, who,
on account of their important
loans to Machado, helped to keep
that dictator in power are equally
to blame. Without their support
the Machado regime would not
have lasted as long as it did.
The President indicated that as
soon as Cuba has another stable
regime it will be necessary for the
bankers to substantially scale
down the loans they have made
to Cuba in order to enable that
country to get on its feet again.
It is natural that this indication
made to the representatives Of republics
which are heavily indebted to the New
VSPlv tSa yHE al -
impression.
May Land Armed Force.
Discussing the immediate situation In
Cuba, Mr.. Roosevelt said 1t still may be
necessary to land . number Of sailors
and marines, In case the lives Of Amer
ican citizens In Cuba were threatened;
but this does not mean N occupation
for long period IN which the Amer1-
can military authorities take over the
government Of Cuba. Such . landing,
II absolutely necessary, win last just
long enough to enable the Americans
to reach q place Of safety either at
some special point where they can be
adequately protected or On board some
vessel where they can remain In safety
until law and order is restored by the
Cuban authorities themselves. Such
landings have been made on several oc-
casions before. that at Santiago In 1917
being recalled.
American bluejackets were sent ashore
there to protect two American sugar
factories. At that time the United States
Government issued q statement explain
ing that the landing was not effected
under the provisions Of the Platt
amendment, but was meant only to
protect American property until the
Cuban authorities could take the situa-
ton in hand and guarantee that protec-
tion themselves.
Under the present dangerous cond1-
ton is is unlikely that anything but the
actual life Of the American citizens will
be protected. Should American prop
erty be damaged by irresponsible Gu
ban bands, the American Government
will prefer not to protect such property
by force, but wait until more stable
conditions prevailed in Cuba. Then
when q new stable government Is set up,
there can be no doubt that such prop
erty will be returned to its rightful
owners.
The imposing naval display ordered
yesterday by the President Is reported
to have had already its moral effect In
Cuba. According to reports received

BY the Associated Press.


With the dispatch Of 16 destroyers,
war vessels to border Cuba, the Ameri-
can Government stood ready today to
land marines and blue jackets on the
first genuine threat to American citt-
3ens.
At the same time, there was resolution
against the momentous step Of taking

Orders Call for Action.
Orders In the hands Of the COM
manders Of the destroyers, cruisers and
the one big battleship either en- route
to Cuban waters or already there, were
guarded closely, but 1t was understood
the administration would not hesitate
a moment In putting armed men ashore
to guard Americans and their property.
For such q course there was ample
precedent. On several occasions in the
last two decades, small American forces

flared and Americans on their sugar
properties or in their homes were
placed In jeopardy.
In each instance, they were with
drawn promptly when matters had set
tied down. Action Of this type, prompt
and definite though 1t might be, is re-
garded here as nothing like armed in

rines or soldiers are massed upon the
island to control it from tip to tip,
maintain order and administer every

If government capable Of protecting
