MISCELLANEOUS AN AUTO STROP RAZOR outfit given free with each classified advertisement. ASK FOR IT. It is to be hoped that the action of Representative Josepa W, Byrns, democratic house leader, in blocking discussion of present conditions in Cuba on the floor of the congress, means what Mr. Byrns implied as justification for his course. He explained that the democratic leadership deem it un- wise to “discuss so publicly a! dev: problem which the state depart~ ment has not yet ‘solved: to its} satisfaction.” Is this an intimation that our government is bending serious attention to present Cuban af- fairs? If that is true, then in the interests of a policy in process of being worked out, discussion in congress may be for the monient premature. | Day by day, the American pub- lic_are being enlightened in this situation. During the better part of 18 months past, a steady stream of testimony has been seeping through the censorship at Havana, accumulating the most terrifying indictment of a regime of severity known to Cuban histery since the great insurrection. Only on Friday last, some 56 Cubans were done to death as a consequence of the reign of terror under President Machado. On Saturday six murders were added to the list, as the regime’s secret police visited vengeance upon’ a group of student members of the political opposition. In Monday the sequence of horrors continued, when three more students were assassinated in their homes and, by reprisals, three members of the Machado strong arm squad were laid low. This is not a reeent and unex- pected development. It is but the picture of a condition prevalent in Cuba since President Machado first started to ride, rough-shod, over all restraint several years ago. Liberty of the press has been destroyed and opposition editors imprisoned, A censorship has been clapped upon all incom- ing papers from this country, Prisons and donjons have been crowded with hundreds whose! since given up, in other Latin crime consists in holding political views that differ from those of the administration. Courts and parliament subverted to his de- sires, the president has pursued a course amazing in its indifference to concepts of popular liberty and ordered democracy. - |The quickening tempo of vio-!; staggering knee deep in financial difficulty, crippled by an economic rr N ‘ N ; : . . : N .
