V. S GOBI YIELDS RICH FOSSILS, REPORT L&der of Expedifion Still Seeks Primitive Man Pelping, China, Oct. 8 (® — Bringing a record bag of prehistoric fossils the Central Asiatic Expedi- tion, led by Dr. Roy Chapman An- drews, the American anthropologist, returned here yesterday after five months of intensive work in the Gobl desert. In the opinion of Walter C. Gran- ger, chief paleontologist, who direct- ed operations in this field, this year's collection is the biggest and scientifically most important made by the expedition since it started out in 1922. Fossils representing about 75 dif- ferent species, several of them new to science, have been found and are expected to throw much additional light upon the evoution and disper- sal of animal life millions of years ago. No, human remains thus far have been discovered but Dr. An- drews does not consider that this rules out the possibility that fore- runners of the Peking man yet may be found in the Gobi region. “We still think,” said Dr. An- drews, “that if we are allowed to continue our investigations we shall find traces of primitive man.” He announced that negotiations are going forward with the Chinese authorities for continuation of the work next year. One of the most important finds of the expedition, apart from the mastadons discovered in a bog was a fossil deposit yielding the teeth, jaws, skulls and parts of a cory- phodon, belonging to the ambylopod order, which in general appearance was somewhat like a long-legged hippopotamus to which, however, it bears no scientific relationship. The party also found the skulls and jaws of a chalicotheres, belong- ing to the same group as the horse, rhinoceros and tapir, but much more primitive than the type pre- viously found in Europe and Ameri- ca. This was a hoofed animal in ev- ery way, but with a great claw in- stead of a flattened hoof. Further discoveries included new genera of titanothero, rhinoceroses, rodents, antelopes and deer, includ- ing one of the latter with antlers the size and shape of a man's hand, which was contemporancous with the shovel-toothed mastadon. A second bog hole filled with mastadon remains was found in the same general region as that discov. ered in midsummer. GUBAN PRESIDENT DEFENDS GOUNTRY | Says Only Cloud Present Univer- * 54l Economic Stump BY GERARDO MACHADO President of Cuba (Copyright, 1930, in all countries by United Press) Havana, Oct. § (UP) — The po- litical agitation which has caused so much comment, and the publication of s0 much insidious news, really is limited to Havana and to the propa- ganda and activities of individuals segregated from the regular con- stituted political parties. These individuals have been join- ed by others of communistic tend- encies who are ready at all times to take advantage of any situation or any circumstance to carry on their work of propaganda against regu- larly organized government. A sad example of these activities | was the recent use of some students, naturally excitable and ready for ad- venture, in the promotion of a dis- turbance. Fortunately the author- ities were able to meet the situation | without difficulty; but unfortunate- 1y one student was killed—the vic- tim of malicious propaganda and the rashness of youth. There are three leading partics in Cuba—the liberal, existent since the establishment of the republic; the conservative, organized during the second intervention of the United States in 1906, and the popular, or- ganized during the administration of General Mario Menocal in 1919. These partles, with few tions, comprise all the voters of Cuba, It will be noted, also that my administration did not take part in their establishment The three parties in 1928, after maure deliberations and with the cooperation of jurists of world wide | renown, amended the constitution. A referendum of voters approved | the amendment. Then clections were held November 1, 1928, Picked One Candidate The three parties decided again to cooperate for the benefit of the nation, and with the purpose avolding a bitter political stru determined to have one for the presidency didate, without opposition. They nominated me as the candidate of all parties, an honor which I accept- ed as a testimonial th: and constant efforts toward the pro- gress and improvement of conditions in my country had been appreciated, ‘zle candidate and that I was supported by all in | my work of giving Cuba a solid, honest and capable public admini tration and a place of honor among the nations of the world. I was inaugurated May 20, 1928, and was honored by the presence of 32 extraordinary envoys of as many nations. Now, the constitution clearly di- rects the time and mode of election of the congress. The date next election of senate and hou representatives is ember 1. Both houses must by law take office on the first Monday in April, Neither I nor anyone else has the right to suspend or postpone the electione. Such actions would leave the country without a proper legi: lative power, and would force the executive to assume practically a dictatorial character. There is a group, former members of the politi- cal powers, along with other hetero- geneous elements, who have organ- composed three excep- | of | A national can- | my sincere for the | 1931, of ! are In sympathy with a revolutlo of Rio Grande do Sul for some tim STATES IN REVOLT IN BRAZIL The shaded portions show Brazilian states that have Joined or Janeiro government which has been brewing In the southern state NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1930. ! | | nary movement against the Rio ized as an opposition group, though not as a political entity. They repre- sent an effort to create unrest and discontent, and animpsx(y against the government. This group has demanded, most unreasonably—among other things —that the November elections be postponed. This demand is the principal ‘cause of the recent trouble. It may be seen plainly that this demand cannot be met, because it is essen- tial under the constitution to re- new the congress. The other cause is the eXort of this group to excite popular senti- ment by citing the economlc crisis which affects the entire world. Will Preserve Order ‘With some publications seconding opposition’s unreasonable activi- ties there have been attempts to bring about small disturbances of the peace, but 1 can assure you or- der will be maintained. To that end I have the support of the governors of the six Cuban prov- inces; of 120 of the 124 mayors, of the chambers of commerce, of man- ufacturers’ associations and many other groups. In fact, my govern- ment is backed by 90 per cent of all the elements that make up our na- tional life, Political parties at all times have shown their support of my govern- | ment and congress has just given me proof of confidence by authorizing | me to suspend, if I deem it neces- sary, certain constitutional precep —an authorization of which I shall not avail myself unless it is abso- | lutely necessary. Then, too, the | army and navy are behind me in full loyalty. administration 20, Now as to my since I first took office on May 1925. I have reduced public ex- penditures and vet have increased efficiency. Criminality, which in other epochs was fostered by fre- quent pardons, has diminished. I am particularly proud of our new public works, such as the capi- to®, hospitals, schools, public build- ings, etc. Then there is the central highway so badly needed to pro- mote agriculture and industry. The: have done much to reduce unem- ployment at a time when shortage of work was general throughout the world. We are, naturally, passing through a severe economic crisls, together with other countries that have more resources and wealth than we, The crisis has been augmented by the low price of sugar, our principal product. Nevertheless we have been weathering the financial storm. Our banks maintain themselves firm, as was evidenced by the fact that when one bank was in difficulties a few days ago panic was limited to the institution directly affected. We have met our international and domestic obligations and we have brought our budget down to the needs of the moment, but with- out curtailment of public service. With salaries of public officials and employes reduced in order to meet sting demands they yet have loy- carried on and approved the measure.

Thousands jammed the surround- ing hillsides to hear the open air presidential address yesterday in celebration of the sesquicentennial of the battle of Kings Mountain in South Carolina, just below the North Carolina border. Speaking from a platform reared in a valley beneath the hill sum- mit on which the British under Ferguson were defeated by a small band of patriots 150 years ago, the president stressed the need for pre- servation of the American principle of equal opportunity for all as op- posed to bolshevism and class gov- ernment. Must Guard Nation “While we cannot permit any for- eign person or agency to undermine our institutions,” he said, “yet we must look to our own conduct that we do not by our own failure to uphold and safeguard the true lsmrll of America weaken our own nnuti!ut&ons and destroy the very ntorces which upbuild our national greatness.” “It is in our own house,” he add- ed, “that our real dangers lie, and it is there that we have need to summon our highest wisdom and our highest sense of public service. “We must keep corruptive influ- ences from the nation and its ideals as we would keep them from our homes. “Crime and disobedience of law |are the very incarnation of destruc- tion to a system whose basis is law “Both pacifism and militarism “The greatest wonder court danger from abroad, the one by promoting weakness, the other by® promoting arrogancy. “Failure of many of our citizens to express their opinions at the bal- lot box is at once their abandon- ment of the whole basis of self gov- ernment.
