DATE. MAY BE SET TO RECALL U.S. MARINES Nicaragua Intervention to End, State Department Announces. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Seripps-Howard Foreirn Editor WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.—lt is expected that a date will shortly be fixed—probably late in 1932 —for the withdrawal of American marines from Nicaragua. Following a conference of state department officials lasting several days, it was announced that the marines will be withdrawn as soon as possible after the 1932 elections. These take place in the fall. Participating in the conference were Secretary of State Stimson; General Frank B. McCoy, who supervised the Nicaraguan elections of 1928; Mathew E. Hanna, American minister to Managua, and others. Fixing an exact date for the evacuation, observers believe, would cut the ground from under the feet of General Sandino, guerrilla leader, leaving him without a reasonable excuse for continuing on the warpath. Would Fix Date Any further activities on his part, once such a date had been officially announced, would take on the character of sheer banditry and murder and lose for him the role of patriot in which light his followers see him. Criticism of the United States, at times very bitter throughout Latin America, would likewise lose much of Its point. At present, in that quarter, the suspicion is voiced that Washington has no intention ever of withdrawing its forces. President Hoover is understood to favor early withdrawal. At the time of his visit to that country shortly after his election, he left no doubt in the minds of those about him that he had little relish for the occupation and that the shorter it was the better it would suit him. Too hurried a withdrawal, however, he was advised, would leave matters worse than ever. A native constabulary would first have to be recruited and trained, roads would have to be built and other work done to make it possible for the Nicaraguans to safeguard their own peace. Refuses to Surrender This job, it turned out, has not proved an ea . y one. Sandino, one of the chief lieutenants of General Moncada—now president of the republic, but formerly rebel command-er-in-chief—refused to surrender and has been on the rampage ever since. Oil and on since 1927, Sandino has been w’aylaying American marines and native forces and killing them off. Usually dubbed a bandit in the United States, this man has become something more than a hero to millions of Latin Americans. To those who fear or suspect the United States’ intentions, he has become a symbol of liberty—a modem Bolivar defying oppression. That sort of thing naturally has not helped, and Is, not now helping, American prestige south of the Rio Grande. IDEAUWOTHERS ARE NEEDED BY CHURCHES Minister Says They Are Great Power for Good. Lhe ideal mother prays. She is industrious and a good housekeeper. She is self-denying, thankful for her blessings, takes pleasure in doing for her children. These thoughts were expressed by the Rev. L. C. E. Fackler, pastor of the St. Matthew’s Lutheran church, in a sermon Sunday. “If there would be more ideal mothers, even in the church, then the church would be a greater power toward good,” he said.

Royalty Diets By United Press LONDON, Feb. 9.—Life is dull these days for the rulers of the royal kitchens.
