PRESIDENT TO NAME GROUP TO STUDYSHOALS Nonsalaried Commission Is Being Considered by Mr. Hoover. By United Pres* WASHINGTON, March 6.—President Hoover plans to appoint a nontala rled commission to study his recently announced project for disposal of Muscle Shoals. The President 1s understood to believe such a commission might be able to agree upon a basic arrangement for presentation to congress when it reconvenes. He made his -counter offer in vetoing the modified Norris Muscle Shoals bill. Mr. Hoover proposed that congress authorize a commission composed of representatives from Alabama, Tennessee, the army corps of engineers and national farm organizations. He suggested this commission be given power to get the best possible lease for the plant. Inasmuch as the veto came the day before the close of the session, there was no opportunity afforded -to consider the suggestion. If a nonsalaried commission is appointed now, it might work out details of such an arrangement,

Auto Dragged 900 Feet

A sedan struck by a railroad train at a “death trap” grade crossing in Buffalo was dragged 900 feet before the train could be halted —and this is what the wreckage looked like after it was all over. One occupant of the auto was killed instantly, and two others were injured critically.

CUBAN EXILES DEMAND U. S. INTERVENTION Definite Charges Placed Before Secretary of State. by WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Seripps-Howard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, March 6.—A definite demand for intervention in Cuba now is before Secretary of State Stimson, placed there by a group of political exiles here known as the Cuban Patriotic League. Charge after charge is set up against President Machado and his regime and the American ambassador at Havana, Harry F. Guggenheim. The amabssador is haled over the coals for alleged “interference in Cuba’s political, legislative and financial affairs.” The league requests the state department immediately to do one of two things: either intervene as authorized by the Platt amendment for “the protection of life, property and individual liberty,” or, “publicly settle their domestic quarrel in their own way. Duty Pointed Out

In the past, it is pointed out, the United States has shown a disposition to uphold whatever government happens to be in power in Cuba, regardless of its legality, which fact is held responsible for most of the present abuses in the island. Cuban presidents feel free $o be as tyrannical as they please, the league says, inasmuch as American marines always are in the background ready to help put down revolt. It is this fashion of interpreting the Platt amendment which the Cuban exiles find so unjust. They insist that if the United States intends to back up the Cuban government, by force of arms if necessary, then it becomes the duty of the United States to see to it that such government functions within the law and the constitution. Many Charges Brought The manifesto further sets forth that Cuba is now under martial law; that the constitution has been indefinitely suspended; that many Cubans are in prison for political reasons; that the right of habeas corpus, specifically insisted upon by the United States in 1900, is being denied; that the national university, normal, high and elementary schools have been closed and newspapers suppressed; that women of the highest standing have been stripped of their clothes in public

TRADE BOOM SEEN BY ENGLAND THIS SPRING By United Press LONDON, March 6.—There are indications that the long-awaited trade boom will start here this spring. These indications are many. Leaders of industry and members of the government are said to be basing their plans on them. The federation of British industries, in its trade barometer just issued, says: “Spring should see some improvement.” Chancellor of the Exchequer, Philip Snowden is preparing his budget on the assumption that the trade returns shortly will show a substantial improvement and yield him increased revenue.
