ASSEMBLES NEW mpile Comprehensive Unemployment Relief HEARD IN TALK RELATIVE TO HIGHWAY BRIDGES, OFFICIAL OF TEXAS OIL CO. GIVES ADDRESS AT MEET- ING OF KIWANIS CLUB RE- CENTLY IN MIAMI Cecil Hawley; director of roads reports for the Texas Oil Com-| pany, who, with Mrs. Hawley, ey here as the guest of William R. Porter and left for Havana on the invitation of Tirso Mesa, mayor of Havana, has returned and proceed- ed to Miami. In that city Mr. Hawley gave an} interesting talk before the Kiwan- is Club which is carried in the columns of the Miami Herald of| this date. Discussing the question of the Overseas highway. bridges, he said that “within two years after the proposed bridges are completed Miamians may reasonably expect that at least 20,000 automobiles, each carrying two or more per- sons, to stop in Miami during that period of the year when tourist movement now is practically nil. “These tourists would result in the distribution of more than $3,- 000,000 in Miami, Mr. Hawley said, which would seem to war- rant the support of every resource of the community in order to in- sure the granting of a loan of a) proximately $11,000,000 by the Reconstruction Binance Corpora- tion for the construction of ‘thi bridges. “A majority of the tourists would be Northern office workers, Mr. Hawley explained, who have become ‘fishing conscious’ in the last few years, Recognizing this fact, he referred to the bridges as the ‘Florida fishing bridges’ and said they would appeal especially to office workers who have but a brief vacation. “With the completion of the bridges and the publicity the pro- ject would attract in the press the attention of fishermen of the North would be intrigued by the fact they can drive down here and experience the thrills of deep sea fishing with the minimum expense. The owners of fishing boats also will benefit, Mr. Hawley said, be cause after these tourists have spent a day or two fishing off the bridges it is certain that several ‘will combine to make a party going out to deeper water off shore in the hope of catching even larger fish. “During his stay in Havana, Mr. | Hawley said he was assured by Mayor Tirso Mesa that Cuba is looking forward to the completion | of the bridges because it will facili-| tate the interchange of tourists; with Florida.” be Bev COT) Repeal? Beer? Or Neither? — It’s Congress’ Big Problem N. Garner, speaker of. the house, announced that he would permit consideration of a prohibition repeal resolution immediately, Charles McNary, assistant floor leader in the senate, gave assurance the resolu- tion would go before that body with the least possible delay if it passes the house.

Those are the questions being pondered as congress prepares to open. the “lame duck” session’ on December 5. In'a_ session that must deal with problems as grave and pressing as any in the history of the country, the prohibition is- sue perhaps overshadows all.

Findlay, of the United States PRICE FIVE CENTS Favorable Decision For Germany In Terminal And Munitions Plant World War Happening Just Before United States Entered Conflict; Loss Placed At $40,000,000 (By Associated Press) ‘WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. —Owen J. Roberts, umpire of the German-American Mixed Claims Commission, today handed down a deci- sion favorable to Germany in the famous Black Tom and Kingsland cases. The decision is the second and final one favorable to Germany in cases which were reopened at the re- quest of American agents to permit submission of new e-idence. The previous decision favorable to Germany was unanimous by two commis- sioners and the umpire. The cases involved the destruction of Lehigh Val- leys Black Tom terminal at New-York and Kingland, New Jersey, munitions plant of the Canadian Car and Foundry Company just be- fore the United States en- tered the World War. The United States has sought to prove Gérman agents were responsible for both fires. Combined claims aggre- gated approximately $40, 000,000, At the reopening the United States placed much dependence upon the series of secret. spy messages and letters in an effort to prove German complicity.
