__ LIGHTS AND. SHADOWS Modern life presents a -sttange pie-| ture of light and shade. One ‘of the m A ieek gi contrasts is’ that between the |. the disputes, often bitter and. violent, of ‘unhappily married couples. About 200,- 000. divorces a year are being. granted in the United States. What a story of dis- | cord these figurestell! There is nothing more beautiful than. : .} the confiding faith with which young peo- . | the’sun will always. shine, ple enter the mystic unknown of marriage. They look forward to bright ‘days when. and romance: will forever color the scene with its rain- bow hues. 4nd then 200,000 homes go to smash | Yenendevs Precipitation 9 | treme “* East Gulf: 2| winds over north and central ‘por- | 0.

POLITICAL CANCER (Havana Post) The transition in many of Cuba’s:for- mer patriots-into selfish, greedy. politicians, in the cheaper sense of the word, must bring shame and consternation to. those in | high places who. have retained the sincere ‘love of the country which motivated them ‘| to challenge the tyranny and ruthlessness ‘plof the Machado government, to. cause. ulti- || mately its overthrow. ed ilctacs satlst-gilics athe tothe axe, thereby probably lost his chance to break the all-time record. of 2,785 major league games played, now held by Honus.

The sincerity of the president, and’ many | of his councillors is undoubted, It is mani- festly impossible, however, for this or any other government to act efficiently within the.maze. of wathinking, anti-patriotie “petty: political intrigue trahspiring on all ‘sides. : - The ag ace = a criticized, 9 art ‘In oak it® failed, dismally to control certain situations ich must be controlled and overcome eet the! natfdii chit be guided baek ‘to fF, malcy, The. blame for this poor. showing, rests | ont thie Shoulders of those. who “faye ‘de- liberately prostituted their services to the vansé of the revolution by seeking their payment, cost what it may to the Cuban people, in. political sinecures,where, only too. often, graft is easy and abundant. The government itself incurs in this respon- sibility for its negligence in failing to deal | with the situation with more firmness. and determination. If Cuba is to henefit from the years of agonizing revolution it has suffered, the government must put an immediate cheek te the contemptible procedure which makes a racket out of revolution, or content itself. with stifling its ideals and permit the ghastly comedy to continue until the ship . of state, finally rotted to the core, is no longer able te survive. they will huy our products; then we how! because they imitate the products and un- dersell us.—San.
