Welles and the committee met in the home of Eduardo Chibas, secre- tary of public works under Carlos Manuel de Cespedes, whose-return to} . the presidency is sought by the of- ficers in the hotel. Cause Traffic Inconvenience Afterwards, students took positions tear the hotel and compelled resi- dents in the Vedado section to drive 16 blocks out of their way to reach their homes. Students said the government had een informed the besieged officers planned to start firing on the 500 sol- diers and students who held them virtual prisoners in the fortress-like hostelry, in which the officers are supplied with many guns. Powerful forces, including the ABC snd OCRR secret societies, the Na- tionalist followers of Col. Carlos Men- dieta, and supporters of Former President Mario G. Menocal, during a protracted session, insisted he make way for a new government of na- tional scope. The meeting of the opposition fac- tions failed to reach an accord, the president announced. Another meet- ing will be conducted Sunday’ after- noon. The president declared he did not ‘want to see bloodshed there because many of the dissident officers were his personal friends. Machine guns, field artillery pieces, nd other weapons were trained on the hotel by Grau San Martin's sol- diers, one-time followers of the offi- cers, who seek the return of ‘Former President De Cespedes. Aran Men Under Arrest Seventeen followers of the rebel- Nous Capt.: Fernando Aran were in Cabana fortress awaiting trial. They were brought here Friday from Pinar Del Rio province, where they were said to have revolted against the ad- ministration.

What steps will be taken to remedy this situation remain to be announced, but it is known that Secretary Ickes, the public works administrator, is im- Patient about these delays, particular- ly because he regards them as largely outside his contro}. i Public works officials class these! Outaide interferences generally as: Political efforts to cause uneco- nomic expenditures; inefficient ap- Plications; dilatory tactics by recipi- | ents of funds in letting contracts; at-| tempts of contractors to avoid bond- ing; attempts of contractors to elim- inate competitive bidding and the| failure of many communities to find out what information and action is required by the public works admin- istration. i The administration also feels that there is considerable misunderstand- ing of the size 6f its task. It wes no simple job, Secretary Ickes’ friends explained, to set up an instrument for the expenditure of so! ment. The secretary's associates say he considers efficient spending of the money allotted to him as absolutely essential, and that he does not be- Heve it was intended that the money should be spent hurriedly to meet po- Utical or similar demands.

Arraigned before Judge Paul W. Guilford for auto theft, William Sheehan, 26, of Minneapolis, entered a guilty plea and then launched into ‘ais story of a search for buried treas- ure. Sheehan said the idea came from an account of a lifer in the Nebraska state penitentiary. The lifer knew of a huge cache of stolen bonds in the Black Hills for which there was a re- ward. He drew a map of its location for Stanley Karmel, then his cell-mate, who now is held with Sheehan for ‘automobile theft. When Karmel was released he came to the Twin Cities, met Sheehan and told him of the treasure. It sounded good to Sheehan and he procured an automobile for the trip to the Black Hills.

PIG PURCHASE QUOTA | INCREASED 1,922,000 Washington, . Sept. 16.—)}—The| farm adjustment administration an- nounced Saturday that an additional quota of 1,922,000 pigs would be pur-| chased in the emergency hog reduc- | tion campaign which ends Sept. 29. ‘The original maximum in the cam- paign was 4,000,000 pigs ranging in weight from 25 to 100 pounds. The quota also included 1,000,000 farrow- ing sows. Dr. A. G. Black, chief of the hog Production section, said the quota on Sows would not be raised. Unusually heavy shipment of pigs,) en which the government is paying a premium, caused the decision to raise the original quota by almost 2,000,000. ‘The additional pigs also, Black said, will help to compensate for the: fact that 1,000,000 sows will not be ship- Ped to market by farmers. Sow shipments have been small in comparison with the shipments of pigs. Black sald the sale of sows would be only several hundred thou- sand head.

Numerous other code negotiations in progress at recovery headquarters virtually marked time as officials concentrated on putting a coal agree- ment before President Roosevelt. Renewed pressure from President Roosevelt to bring the negotiations to @ sudden end was as John- |son left for the white house to con- fer with the chief executive. Obviously angered at the continued wrangling of the coal operators over wage contracts which blocked a final agreement, the administrator intend- ed to lay the full situation before Roosevelt with a recommendation for action, There were strong indications that unless the accord was reached at once the disputing operators would be call- ed back to the white house for an charged | ultimatum from the president or else that Roosevelt would take some other definite course designed to end the controversy and obtain the signatures of the coal magnates.

The contract agreed to Friday night and forwarded at once to the capital provides that the profits of the in- crease of from 10 to 11 cents a quart go to the farmer. Officials estimated that as a result producers would re- ceive $2.10 a hundredweight instead of $1.75 as at present and approxi- mately $1.45 a hundred for milk to be used in cream form. The base allotment plan to which the strikers have objected most stren- uously was left intact. Following several skirmishes be- jtween pickets and producers attempt ing to deliver milk to receiving s' tions Friday, Don. N. Geyer, manager of the Pure Milk association, said |pickets would be matched “man for man” Saturday with vigilantes. Sheriff's forces were mustered on the highways about Harvard, Ill, Saturday afternoon as dairy farmers determined to carry their milk to a receiving depot there made ready for aan through a cordon of 300 pick- i Deputies were summoned to convoy @ procession of milk trucks past the strikers, and the temper of the pick- ets was such that a violent outbreak was feared. Prison Labor Urged Washington, Sept. 16.—(#)—Maxi- mum working hours but no minimum recommended to the NRA —+ Up Course e | Smashing the course record with a 68, three under par and one of the great- est rounds in the history of the tourn- ament, George T. Dunlap, Jr., of New York Saturday forenoon established a 7-up lead over Max Marston of Phila- delphia at the halfway mark of their 36-hole match for the U. 5. amateur golf championship. DUNLAP CRACKS PAR AND COURSE RECORD IN AMATEUR FINALE Slim New Yorker Takes Over- whelming 7-Up Lead Over Max Marston Kenwood Country Club, Cincinnati, Sept. 16—(#)—Smashing the course record with a-68; thrée under’ par, George T. Dunlap, Jr. 24-year-old} New Yorker, piled up an overwhelm- ing margin of 7 up over Max R. Marston, Philadelphia, veteran ex- titleholder, Saturday in the first 18 holes of their 36-hole match for the U.S. amateur golf championship. Dunlap shot one of the greatest rounds in the history of the Ameri- can championship. Gray-haired ve erans of golf could not recall any- thing like it since Bob Jones beat Chick Evans in the final round at Minikahda in 1927, when the great Georgian carded 31 out and 36 back for a 67. Dunlap never once was off the fair- way. He never missed a green with his approach, though he was once or twice on the edge. He made only one real mistake in the entire round. That was when he three-putted and lost the seventh hole. Marston captured only two holes, the seventh and eighth, and halved cnly seven others. Dunlap had four birdies, most of them due to marvelous approaches, ome on the short 12th, where his tee shot stopped 18 inches from the cup. Marston played some good golf at times but he was wild off the tees, and his accuracy with the irons fell off under pressure. Dunlap’s score was a stroke better than the previous competitive course record, 69, set in the qualifying round by Jim Milward of Madison, Wis. and equaled by Johnny Fischer of Cincinnati in establishing a new qualifying mark. | A crowd that mounted to more| than 2,500 spectators by the time they were coming down the stretch; gasped at Dunlap’s shot-making.

C.; Friday Storm Killed Six Mexicans (By the Associated Press) Tides and winds swept over the North Carolina coast Saturday, in- undated towns and severed commu- nication. Two persons were known to have drowned and a third was missing. The wind, of hurricane velocity from the tropics, rushed on toward Virginia. Sea resort residents there fled to safer ground. The hurricane was the second from the tropics in two days. The first struck the coast of Mexico Friday and left six dead, 50 injured and eg homeless in the Tampico dis- New Bern, N. C., a coastal city of 11,000 inhabitants, was inundated. The coast guard cutter Pamlico, its wireless furnishing the only means of communication for the city, sent out a call for relief workers and dis- patched a landing party to give im- mediate aid. ‘Indescribable Confusion’ A resident of New Bern reaching Kingston, N. C., reported “indescrib- able confusion” and said water was waist-deep in the business section. The tide rolled in from Pamlico Sound, he said, and swelled against the already rain-sated Neuse and Trent rivers. The Pamlico reported a Neuse river bridge swept away, waterfront prop- erty destroyed and lights and com- munications: cut off. Several other coastal towns were reported flooded. The storm began moving inward as it approached Vir- ginia and was expected to be in full fury there at about noon, A 43-mile gale ahead of the hurricane toppled over two cottages reported unoccupied, at Willoughby, Va. Apprehension gripped Norfolk, Va., where the full fury of the storm was expected to strike later in the day.

Later, corrected advices reduced this number to six.
