new CUBAN COUP
PLOT IS REPORTED
Cabinet Member Is Rumored Aided
by Part of Army-Bomb-
ings Occur.

BY the Associated Press.
HAVANA, December IA rumor that
q cabinet member supported by part OF
the army was plotting to overthrow the
government ran through Havana today.
The report spread along with many
others concerning a possible coup d'etat
during night of nervousness height
ened by bombings.
There was wide speculation in regard
to secret conference between President
Ramon Grau San Martin and United
States Ambassador Sumner Welles last
night.
Today, however, as the city observed
Memorial day, neither Grau nor Welles
would comment.
One of the early morning bombs ex-
ploded in a building which houses the
Danish consulate. No damage was done
to the consulate.
The American-owned Cuban Electric
Co. still was at odds with the Grau
government over its decree for "a per
cent reduction Of the 5000, oDD, 600 con-
Germs rates. 49,
Company officials said they would
close their plants If the government or
dered a reduction Of more than 70 per
cent ...
The company appealed to It's employees
for another week in which to answer
the workers Al demands, explaining
there had been insufficient time to study
them.

.FUKIEN REVOLT
TROOPS MASSED
Concentration on Kwangtung Bor-

Negotiated.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HONGKONG, December Troubled
Southern China today heard reports OF
a heavy concentration Of troops Of the
newly established revolutionary Fukien
government near the Kwangtung Dor
der.
Meanwhile, the Marking government
and the national government at Can
ton were bargaining over a bill for
banditry suppression.
Marking is to pay Canton $3.50, 900
monthly for keeping down outlaws, and
it was reliably learned that Canton is
demanding another 100000 monthly
as instalments on expenses OF 1925
expedition, placed at $50, 900, 900.
In return, Canton not only promises
neutrality in the event of war between
Fukien and Marking, but offers to
continue its anti-communist campaign,
reports said.
The rebellion in Fukien, observers
believed, has brought threat Of war to
South China, with some quarters seeing
the possibility of an anti-Fukien drive
by Marking.
Canton claims the Province of
Kwangsi had assured its loyalty, but
this was unconfirmed. Meanwhile,
Marking was reported also to be wooing
Kwangsi.
The expected return to China from
Europe Of Chang Hsiao-Liang, power
full war lord, is expected to have an i'm
portant influence on developments.

FULL RESTORATION
Of 15% CUT URGED
Provision to Be Written Into
Independent Offices Bill
Monday.

When the subcommittee on the indie
pendent offices appropriation bill meets
Monday to mark up the bill to be
reported to the House, 1t plans to write
into this first appropriation q full res
toration of basic salaries for Govern
ment employees despite the views of
Chairman Buchanan of the Appropria-
tons Committee who prefers per
sent restoration.
Chairman Buchanan has been advised
that President Roosevelt intends to
recommend the restoration of the first
per cent next January.
Most of his fellow members on the
committee indicate a strong desire to
put in the entire IS per cent so the
funds viii be available whenever the
President. at his discrptiOp. decides to
restore the entire IS cent -
Three Fac kestsratien.
Three Democratic members Of the
subcommittee already have declared
emphatically their belief that the entire
Is per cent should be restored. These
are Representative Woodrum Of Vir-
ginia, chairman Of the subcommittee;
Representative Boylan Of New York
sachusetts.
Representative Boylan said today he
believes the entire is per cent should
be restored Immediately and not wait
until the first Of next July. He lauded
the patriotic spirit of the Government
workers, emphasizing that practically
all Of them are supporting relatives out
Of their Government salaries Boylan
said that as matter of justice to the
employees and to show good faith to in
dustry and expedite general recovery
the Government should set an example
by restoring the full amount of the
pay cut.
Representative Boylan pointed out
scheme Is to increase salaries so the
people will have a greater purchasing
power. He declared the Government
in urging private industry to increase
salaries should set an example. He
argued that to restore the Is per cent
cut to Government workers would be
direct testimony to the entire country
that the recovery program Is succeeding
and that better times are in prospect.
This alone. Boylan said, would stimu-
late business and optimism throughout
the entire country.
I28 in Congress Pledged.
Mr. Boylan expressed the hope that
the President would recommend to Con-
gress as soon as It meets restoration Of
the basic salaries to all Government
workers
Meanwhile, 1t was announced that
1913 members of Congress now are
pledged to work for full restoration Of
the pay cut. The announcement was
made at the headquarters Of the Amer
lean Federation Of Government En-
ployes, which is conducting poll on
this issue. The list was brought up to
this figure with advice from Senator
Schall, Republican, Of Minnesota that
he favors such legislation.
Nearly all Of the pledges are from
House members.
