JONATHAN CATES ‘AND FAMILY. feb27-1t @) statistical information HAVANA HIGH POINTS By Local Cuban Consulate ecccccecs ecccccccce The great avenue which joins the capital with the industrial town of “General Machado,” for- merly “Rancho Boyeros,” was in- augurated on February 24. Cuban commerce and industry were amply represented at‘ the Commercial Fair of Tampa which was celebrated between January 81 and February 13. The gevern- ment sent the cruiser “Patria,” with a musical band, to attend the festivities held there, In the Province of Oriente, near Holguin, a gold mine, the owners of which are Cubans, has, been found and will soon be ex- ploited. ‘ The Department of State has been making a study of the dif- ferent commercial treaties exist-| ing with different countries. A “modus vivendi” has already been signed between Cuba and Chile, as a first step toward an ampler treaty, that country having agreed to buy a considerable quantity of sugar and other products in ex- change for tariff concessions on some of the products of their soil. At present they have ordered, the purchase of 10,000 tons of Cuban sugar which is being shipped , in Chilean vessels to that ‘country. The sugar crop continues with-' out interruption, there being 76 sugar mills in operation ‘to ‘date in the different provinces. According to information from. the Department of Health, Cuba is one of the countries boasting of the lowest death rate, due to the fact that tropical diseases do not get a good foothold in that country; there being also more than 100 persons who died last! year past the age of 100 years, of which only four belonged to the African race. The cultivation of coffee in ‘Cuba has increased in such a way that last year it not only covered the national consumption, but, ; there was also exported to differ- ent countries some six million kilos. Oriente is the province that has shown greatest interest in the cultivation of the said grain. The Department of Public In- struction and Arts has published MONDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1983. regarding the number of teachers and pupils in the republic, of which there ap- pear to exist 7,417 teachers of primary instruction in Cuba, and of which 6,417 are women and 1,- 000 men; of these 6,236 belong to the white race and 1,161 to the colored race. The number of students in the primary ‘schools is 426,708, of which 217,434 are girls and 309,- 274 boys, there being an average of 57 students per grade. Private institutions number some 450, with 1,146 class rooms and 1,304 teachers who tutor some 150,000 children. Colds that Hang On Don’t let them get a strangle hold. Fight germs quickly.

Hayes Succeeds The president of the republic in recent declarations to “The New York Times” has manifested that he proposes to celebrate elec- tions with absolute guarantees or impartiality, during the year 1934, to select the new president, and that he will not be a candidate in said election. Regarding the economic sit- uation he has expressed his firm belief that about the middle of the present year it will improve, commencing with a new budget which will be completely balanced, and has declared that the govern- ment will religiously pay all the interior and exterior debts. i»\Aecording to information from the Department of Commerce in Washington, commerce between 5| Cuba and the United States, dur- ing: the year 1932 amounted to $84,933,000, of which $58,333,- 000 corresponded to Cuban ex- portations, and $26,600,000 to im- portations. These figures show to what ex- tent the acquiring powers have decreased, as well as the value of our products, since in 1931 those figures reached $90,059,000 for exportations, and $47,985,000 for: importations. J. C. Hayes, attorney from. Washington, D. C., captured. ‘ a sailfish recently that is a beauty. It measures 5 feet, 7 inches, and weighs 50 pounds. For several Hayes and 0. E. Otto have. been fishing in Key West waters and while they have captured many other kinds of fish that is their first gail- fish. Several days ago Mr. Otto had one of the finest. sail- fish ever seen in these waters but the line was too light for the angler to risk maintaining the necessary strain and the fish escaped. ee kdedededed DINNER SALE Served by women of Fleming foseg =e ele Sieters, hall, opposite, Fleming Street church.
