BRAND MARINES AS LOOTERS OF NICARAGUA CITY Conduct of U. S. Troops Called ‘Disgraceful’ by Mexican. By United Prtn MEXICO CITY. April 30.—The newspaper Universal today published an interview attributed to Vicente Lombardo Toledano, member of the National University faculty, who just returned from Managua, reflecting on the conduct of the United States marines during the recent earthquake relief work. He did not claim to have verified the charges himself, but merely said persons at San Juan Del Sur and Corinto told him of misconduct of the marines. Lombardo Toledano, whose words usually carry some weight in Mexico City, claimed that the marines —who were praised without qualification by Nicaraguan and American official,'; at Managua—had “looted" the Nicaraguan capital. “The most striking impression I received in Central America was the sack of Managua by the Yankee marines,’’ he said. “Such were the excesses of the marines that clashes with police ensued. “The marines dynamited safes which they knew contained money and killed persons attempting to enter the ruins of their homes searching for their belongings.” REFUSES TO SET ASIDE BANKRUPTCY DECREE Baltzell Denies Petition of Knox Coal Company Stockholder.

Judge Baltzell also denied petition of Martin E. Lowish, superior court receiver for the firm, to dismiss the suit brought by Theodore Stempfell, federal court trustee, asking possession of the assets.

ASK NEW TRIAL IN STREET CASE City to Contest Ruling on Paving Assessments. Motion for anew trial in the case against the city in which Circuit Judge Harry O. Chamberlin on March 31 ruled a few property owners legally may curb efforts of the works board in improvement projects has been filed by the city, it was announced today by City Attorney James E. Deery. The suit was filed on behalf of certain property owners to halt improvement of Sangster and Manlove avenues. Chamberlin’s decision would prevent any improvement the entire cost of which is more than 50 per cent of the assessed value of properties on the street. The suit charged the city had awarded two separate contracts on the Sangster avenue project and three for Manlove avenue, the totals exceeding the legal 50 per cent limit.

RAIL EMLPOYES TO LAY OFF 3 DAYS AMONTH Canadian Pacific Acts tc Prevent Dismissal of Many Workers. By United Pre i MONTREAL, April 30. —Starting May 1 employes in the general offices of the Canadian Pacific railway will lay off three days a month without pay and officers of supervisory staffs will have their salaries cut 10 per cent, it was announced today by E. N. Beatty, president of the road. Continued falling off in earnings on account of decreased traffic made reductions in operating expenses necessary, Beatty said, in explaining the action. By reducing working time the company avoided disimssing a considerable number of employes, he said. “The office employes themselves,” Beatty said, “have expressed a preference for the sharing of the employment by taking some time off without pay. “It, therefore, has been arranged that, effective May 1, throughout the general offices, employes wir lay off three days a month without pay, which is equivalent to approximately 10 per cent. “Effective from the same date all officers and members of supervisory staffs will, for the time being, accept a reduction of 10 per cent in their salaries. The dividend policy of the company will be considered by the directors at their next meeting.” AUTOMOBILE STRUCK BY RAILWAY SPEEDER Motorist Fails to See Car With Workers, on Track. Verlin Bohanon, 24, of 1201 King avenue, watched a freight train pass the State avenue crossing on the Big Four railroad early today, and then started to cross the tracks. A speeder, carrying workmen, struck his auto, and left the track. Kenneth Tagett, 1220 South State avenue, one of the men on the “scooter,” suffered minor injuries. Ed Borden, 45, of 4216 East Washington street, sustained scalp wounds when an auto in which he was riding crashed into an interurban in the 100 block West Ohio street Wednesday night. Vern Leach, 36, R. R. 3, Box 70, was driver of the auto.
