The situation in Cuba has improved to such an extent that Secretary of State Hull feels he can take a much-needed vacation, and is leaving this afternoon on a motor trip. | The latest reports from Havana indi- cate the generai sirike has lost much of | its intensity; the government has the| situation weil in hand in the capital, | and it is a question of only a few days ' more before lifz in Havana will become | normal agein. In the provinces there still is a certain | amount of restlessness. but on the whol | the situation has preatly improved dur- {ing the last 24 hours. | The U. S. S. Tayler is expectsd to re- main a few more days in Havana, while | the Claxton is at Guantanamo, ready to 10 to any part of Cuba where its pres- | ‘ence may be necessary. Will Resume Tariff Talks. | Now that the political troubles appear |to be over, the United States Govern- | ment can sce no further reason to deley i the economic negotiations for a recipro- | cal tariff agreem:nt which would help the eccnomic situati~n in Cuba. It is realized here that basically the main trouble in Cuba was the tremen- dous economic depression. The present government, under the ership of | Carlos Manuel de Cespedes is undcubt- | edly popular and acceptable to most | Cubans but its popularity depends a! good deal on its ability to improve the economic situation of the country. Un- less Cuba can export more sugar into the United States and obtain certair tariff consessions for', non-competitive products, it is clear theé population will not remain quiet The De Cespedes administration seems to give the necessary guarantees | that it will be a constitutional govern- | ment_and will be able to put order in Cuba’s political affairs. Consequentiy the economic discussions which had | been interrupted because Ambassador . Sumner Welles was busy in his role as a_mediator between Machado and the Cuban political factions will be re- sumed shortly. Two American diplomats have come ! out of this Cuban trouble with flying | colors. They are Ambassador Sumnter Welles and Assistant Secretarv of State Jefferson Caffery. chief of the Latin American division. | Tact and Patience Required. ‘The Cuban situation was extremely erious and full of danger. At one ime it appeared almost inevitable that | the United States would have to inter- | vene with armed forces to re-esmblxsh‘ order in the island. It required a tre- | mendous amount of tact and patience ! on the part of these two diplomats to steer the diplomatic negotiations so as to avoid an intervention which neither | | President Roosevelt nor the American people wanted Caffery and Welles worked in ccm- plete harmony: their wires were never crossed and the result was that inter- | vention was avoided. They kept the President and the American people ! fully and adequately informed of what | was ectually gcing on in Cuba and their reports were of utmost value be- cause they were unbiased and correct. It is stated in well informed quarters that now that Welles has so brilliantly accomplished his task in Cuba he may | | be entrusted with another responsible position as soon as a complete state of . normalcy 1s established in Cuba. Welles to Do Actual Work. The United States Government will begin soon important trade negotiations il | with some of the South American re- publics. The negotiations will be of a complicated and delicate nature. Secretary Hull will be nominally in | charge of them, but it is believed the !actual work will be entrusted to | Welles, who might be given the position ambassador-at-large in | of the principal delegates at the Monte- video Pan American Conference which il | will be held next December, and before | that he is expected to visit some of the = | Latin American countries with which SPECIAL NOTICES.

By the Assocfated Press. < American warships remained on guard in Cuban waters today as reports from the island republic said conditions there were continuing to improve. The reported improvement at Havana was so great, in fact, that the Navy last night withdrew one of its destroyers. the Claxton. from the Cuban capital and sent it around the island to Guan- tanamo Bay, American Naval base. This left only the destroyer Taylor at Havana. But instructed to await orders after passing through the Pana- ma Canal from the Pacific to the At- ‘antic was one of the new 10,000-ton cruisers, the Richmond. Her orders were dispatched at about the same time the destroyer Sturtevant was told to stand by at Manzanillo, on the south and east of the island. Mild Unrest in Manzanillo. | The Sturtevant put on record draft tc ‘ reach Manzanillo at noon today. Mild | unrest was reported in last dispatches from that city. Naval officials pointed out that the Claxton, ordered to Guan- tanamo, would be much nearer Man- zanillo at the American naval base than at_Havana. President Roosevelt kept close watch on the situation. His advisers pre- | dicted that all the warships would be | withdrawn shortly. The Cuban situation was described as satisfactory by Chairman Pittman of the Senate Foreign Relations Com- miftee after a talk with Mr. Roosevelt vesterday. “Everything newspaper men. be back soon.” During the day a nava) escort of one officer and six enlisted men had been | designated by the Navy Department to protect Senora Gerardo Machado, wife of the former president, during her stay .in the United States. +U. S. Officials Optimistic, Admiral William H. Standley, chief | of . naval operations, ordered Lieut. Comdr. J. L. Cotten and six enlisted men to fly from the naval air station | to meet | Senora Machado and her family upon | their arrival there aboard the gunboat Juan B. Azyas. American officials, while taking every precaution, were optimistic over the outlook in” Cuba. “I look for the whole thing to blow | over,” Secretary of the Navy Swanson | said after a talk with the President. | Satisfaction over the turn of events also was expressed by Senator King, | Democrat. of Utah, who for the past two or three years has insisted this Government should make it plain “we were not backing President Machado.” Normal Conditions Seen Soon. Although opposed to intérvention, King said there was no objection to sending a few ships to protect Amer-| jcan nationals and those of .other es “Intervention,” King said, “would create a bad impression not only down there, but elsewhere in Latin America. I would oppose any attempt at polit- ical control. Leave it to the Cuban people to work out their problem.” Albert F Nufer, American commer- cial attache at Havana, notified the Commerce . Department that business looks fine.” he told “I think the ships will after the week of general strike.

FREDERICK PALMER, Noted War Correspondent HAVANA, August 15—When Ameri- |cans, representing all the United | States’ immense and varied interests in Cuba, gathered at the American | Club for the first time under the Ces- | pedes regime it was in an utter change | jof_mood. | It was their turn to celebrate the | | victory won wnen Machado resigned as | President of Cuba. With faces beam- |ing, their talk was in keeping with the ! spirit of the crowds outside who were cheering the passing of the first street car to mark the resumption of traffic. “The present situation has already, developed a return of confidence in future business,” said ‘M. T. McGovern, manager of the General Electric here | and president of the American Cham- | ber of Commerce of Havana. who has been in Cuba 16 years. “And,” Mr. McGovern added. “there is confident | belief in an improvement in future | relations, both political and commercial with the United States as well as con- | fidence in the future of the govern- |ment of Cuba. | Improved Credit Forecast. “Cuba will now become an even better customer of the United States and her future purchases .from the ! United States will be limited only by her purchasing power. This depends |almost_exclusively upon Cuba’s sale of sugar to the United States. Both her |internal and external credit should improve immediately.” Some American business men were saying they had already extended more | liberal private gredit. “A new era for | Cuba has beguft with the new regime.” | said M. V. Molanphy of the United | | Prutt Co. There is universal agreement that the | N. R. A. has arrived in Cuba, bringing ; light and hope after a long spell of | | darkness and that business can no| longer be throttied as it was during the recent period of graft exactions. Paul_Heilman, speaking for the auto- | mobile men, remarked that from 45.000 | automobiles on the roads of Cuba, the ! number of motor vehicles had decreased | to 25000 in the last year and a half. Another representative of the motor | interests said people had walked in- stead of taking out their cars just to spiie Machado and a representative of | an ofl company remarked that the| change in government meant the sale of more gasoline. Welles' Skill Praised. | | At the mention of the name of United | States Ambassador Sumner Welles, each ' group turned into a mass meeting in | praise of Mr. Welles' quiet, patient,| skillful work in arriving at a settle- | ment of the island’s political difficulties. ! This was a great tribute, since only four days ago the same men were inclined to think American intervention was the only solution. British. Canadian and foreign business men were talking in | the same strain | Business confidence was restored with | political confidence during a single | night in which the new government placated all opposition parties, includ- | g the ABC's, with recognition in offices. Americans are rejoicing over their recovered popularity among Cubans alter a period in which mis- | understanding frequently took on anj edge of hostility. | The Americans _were particularly | emphatic in praise of the Cuban crowd’s | action as directed solely against Ma- | chadistas. | Few Cubans are visiting the Amers | ican embassy.
