The farmer-inventor hasn't named his machine yet, but it can cut and twist as much wire in one hour as 10 men would accomplish in an eight- hour day and it saves money with very twist. The contraption, filling a definite need in revetment work, binds to- gether lumber woven into a huge mattress which is being laid along river bottom west of here, The inventor is Burdette Cliburn, Centertown, Mo, farmer, and the machine used here is one of three in_existence, all patented by, him. ‘The huge wooden mattress will be laid against a bank on a bend in the Missouri river to halt surging waters from cutting through a narrow strip which would change the course of the Big Muddy and leave the Lewis and Clark highway bridge high and dry. ‘When the mattress is completed it will lack less than two city blocks of being two miles long and will cost approximately $200,000. Until March 1, the “state highway department will employ approximately 300 men who will be engaged in weaving the mattress of lumber much in the same fashion straw mats are woven, The mattress will vary 2 {from -70 to* 85 feet in width and it will contain more than 700,000 board feet of lumber. More than 35,000 tons of rock will also be required. ret! Winston & Newell Co.

GUBANS USING TAX BILL AS LEVER 10 OUST PRESIDENT Gomez Calls Levy on Sugar Way to Teach Youth in ‘Fascist Manner’ Havana, Dec. 19.—(?)—The Cuban sugar tax bill which the army political faction seeks to use as a lever to oust President Miguel Mariano Gomez was on its way. to him Saturday after passage in an uproarious congres- sional session. The adherents of the nation’s mili- tary “strong man,” Col. Fulgencio Batista, drove the measure through the house of representatives in two votes each by 106 to 43, The first vote was on the bill as a whole and the second passed it para- graph by paragraph, thus sending it directly to Gomes for the signature|, he has declared he would not give to the bill. If Gomez should veto the bill, sup- porters of Batista vowed they would move to impeach him for interfer- ence with legislative acts. Gomez gave as his reason for his promised veto his belief that the bill, by providing funds for army-taught schools, would be the means of edu- cating young Cubans in the “Fascist manner.” Such an evéntuality, Batista, the “father” of the plan, has denied, as- serting the army would be placed in control of the schools only to insure greater pedagogic efficiency. The bill, prvoiding for a 9-cent tax on each bag of sugar, would give the army an estimated revenue of $1,500,-/ 000 annually to open and maintain rural schools, Under Cuban law, Gomez will have 10 days in which to study the meas- ure. If he has not signed it or vetoed it by that time, it automatically would become law.

Sermon Subject “The Light of the World” COFFMAN HAS PLAN TO GUARD SPORTS AGAINST “DANGERS! Minnsota’s Prexy Sees Over- Emphasis and Commercial- ization Perils Minneapolis, Dec. 19.—(#)—Dr. Lotus D. Coffman, president of the Universitw of Minnesota, in his bi- ennial report Saturday offered a seven polnt program aimed to elim- inate the “danger” intercollegiate athletics being “professionalized” “over-commercialized.’ His program provides no profes- sionalism, high scholarship standards for athletics, games between natural rivals; reduction of athletic gate re- ceipts, reduction of athletic expenses, support of athletics by endowment funds, and free admission of students to “many, if not all” games. Dr. Coffman pointed out that he had always been friendly to athletics, participated himself as « student, and believes “they have important values for an educational institution.” “Yet, i¢ does not seem to me,” he added in his report, “that they are in danger of being professionalized, of being over-cémmercialized and of being destroyed by the betting pub- lic and the poolroom houses.” He denied claims by “friends of American sports” that bigger and bet- ter football teams increase university attendance, increase revenues or help to improve educational work. Dr. Coffman also emphasized the need for a “new educational tech- nique,” designed to facilitate intelli- gent study of major problems in an unbiased manner, in his report. The modern university no longer is “cloistered hall,” Dr. Coffman said in his report, which dealt with the “province of education.” As part of the new educational technique, Dr. Coffman suggested, in- stitutions of higher learning should be concerned with searching out the Causes of war and in analyzing rem- edies for their elimination.
