HAVANA, Cuba, November 4— - | dent Machado d “ected the attention of | the Cuban Congress to economic prob- lems when it reconvened Monday and ! sald he expected a “definite consolida- ! tion of peace.” Cuba’s economiz condition has been the subject of several statements re- !cently in which the United States has | been variously blamed on account of its tariffs and defended as a friend. | The emergency revenue legislation passed by the Senate now is before the House, along with a request from the 26 per cent in conformity with budget adjustments in other departments. The | Benate will discuss the country's eco- nomic status Wednesday. Creation of a separate d rtment of labor also was recommended by the President’s message. Absolves U. §. of Blame. Senator Celso Cuellar del Rio, Matan- | 7as Delegate to the Cuban Congress, aid he disagreed with Senator Virlato | Gutlerrez's recent statement that Cuba’s economic crisis is due to “the Platt amendment, the treaty of reciprocity with the United States and the high tariffs of that Nation.” “Qur economic difficulties derive,” the Matanzas man sald in a formal state- ment, “from the * * fact that our potential riches are absorbed by foreign capital in the stupendous proportion of 57 per cent, and, in riches already de- , even more, since the proportion This, he sald, “has brought about, in the 20 years of our Republican ex- istence, an unfavorable balance in our finances of $630,587,571 and a monetary | supply of less than $60,000,000.” Entry Into Banking Field. He contended the Cuban government should go into the banking field, so that available moncy might be “concen- terest” and incle money might be issued to represent riches in existence or_in state of production. The Hoover administration, like that of Roosevelt, has “helped us to con- quer and strengthen our independence and has always aided us in moments of economic difficulties,” he said. Neither is the United States to blame, he asserted, for the fact that “strangers have taken over the greater, and the better rt of the national territory, made themselves lords of almost all Cuban commerce, absorbed the greater volume of the sugar and tobacco in- dustries, dominated the more important developments of public services, nor for our lack of a banking system and our own money.” F. L. CARTER, PIONEER AUTO MAKER, DIES President that the Huse cut.its budget | Keep Buzzards Away By the Associated Press HAVANA, November 4 —Buz- zards so imprudent as to alight on the gilded dome of Cuba's new capitol ‘henceforth will be sorry.
