Tugwell Administration :. In Puerto Rico Is Called
 '.Spendthrift Experiment"

and to finance development of new ventures intended to supplement sugar as a source of insular Income
 Except for the desire to get rid of the big property -holdings-Tug. well is interested only in the non. resident-owned, while Munog Mar in would split up all large holdings none of this program is particu. larly radical even by rather con. servative standards.
 It is not, otherwise, aimed at having the Government take over the products of individual or corr porate enterprise, but rather ct de- yeloping, with Government cid, what private capital can not afford to open up.
 However. Governor Tugwells critics consider 1t significant that he reported to Interior Secretary Ickes, concerning the land distribu. ton scheme: Tt has obvious impli- cations for the South" This is part of the basis for insular feeling that Puerto Rico is being used as c guinea pig-and basis of an argu- ment that the South should use its influence to stop Tugwell.
 It is alleged that Tugwell,s ad- mtnistration is spendthrift, both with inSular and with Federal moneys. And episodes are describ- cd in support of the claim that both Tugweli and Munoz Marin are hypocritical when they say that the tnderdog is their prime concern. NEWS COORDINATOR"
 For example, Commissioner Of Public Instruction 0allardo Is quoted as saying publicly that with s50O00 more 6 year he could give education to all who wanted 1t. Yet, the argument runs. MT. Tugwell has alloeated &20,000 to Q Coordinator of News, who is claimed to be actually Minister of Propaganda: and meanwhile the Governor spent ESQ., 900 in nine months on upkeep of the Executive Mansion, exclusive of ser. wants, etc. contrasted with Si7,000 spent by his predecessor, Admiral Leahy, in full year.
 The Coalicion government built four large, weli-equipped district free hospitals. Congress, under PopulareS control with Coalicion aequiescence, voted s2,000,00O for three more, to complete the pro. gram. Until warned that 1t was il. legal. Tugwell tried to veto this.
 Likewise, a $i00,000 appropriation to close a dangerous open sewer at Arecibo, a district capital with an oyersized stun area, was cut by Tugwel to $25OO0 until the at. torney-general again warned him that such action was illegal.
 The attorney-general involved in these two episodes, Judge George A. Malcolm, has been busted, and now is in the United States.

Their critics are about evenly divided whether Tugwel is using Mun0z Marin, or the Puerto Racan is Nlsang the Governor. At any rate. with very minor dtyergenees. they are following the same path.
