‘HELPING HAND' NEW POLICY ON LATIN AMERICA Flight of Cuba’s Machado Held to Mark Start of New Era. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Srripp* Howard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON. Ait? 15—The flight of Cuba's Machado, dubbed “the president of 1000 murders,’' is held to mark the beginning of anew and vita! phase in Uncle Sam's ever-changing relations not only with Caribbean but with all Latin America. In I.atin American opinion, the “dollar diplomacy” of President McKinley and the "big stick’’ policy c>f the first President Roosevelt both seem destined to give way now to the policy of the helping hand, or the good neighbor'' of the second President Roosevelt. And none too soon A world battle for trade is on. and Latin America is one of the most important battlefields. The seventh Pan-American Congress meets next December in Montevideo—upon what happens to Cuba under the new deal the fate of that important conference very largely depends. llnil Works for Trade The Latin-American conception of Pan-Americanism emphasizes three points, namely, equality of the republic, great and small; co-opera-tion and nonintervention. His refusal to intervene in Cuba and his announced four-point program for rehabilitation of the island are seen as evidence that this conception also is the President's. Stato Secretary Cordell Hull now' is working on a far-flung plan if rapprochement between the United States and the twenty-one republics south of the Rio Grande This work will come to a head at Montevideo, where Hull is expected to head the American delegation. The new world trend in the direction of extreme economic nationalism and regional trade agreements makes the Latin-American market and Latin-American friendship more than ever vital to the United States. Yet Great Britain and other foreign rivals once more are crowding out the United States. Britiain Again in Iwad In 1912. Britain's exports to Argentina amounted to $110,000,000. The United States exports to that country amounted to $58,000,000. In 1926. the figures were SIOB.000.000 for Britain and $140,000,000 for the United States. But last year Britain sold Argentina $20,000,000 worth of her products. while the United States sold only $15,000,000 worth. The significance. of course, is not in the shrinkage of trade generally, but in the fact that once again Britain has gone into the lead for what there is. For this there are several reasons. One one-way tariff policy, intervention in Nicaragua and propaganda on the part, of our trade rivals, who fully utilized Washington's policy of •'imperialism in Latin-Amorica, are partly responsible. Golden Fra Is Gone There are two other reasons, however. of equal importance. During and after the World war our European competitors were not in the running. Competition was easy. We wer-* equipped to deliver our goods to Latin America promptly and Europe was not. Secondly. American bankers, intoxicated by the “new era" of gambling and easy money alnuvst forced loans on Latin Americans by the billions and naturally some of this came back in the form of orders for merchandise Today that golden era is gonr. Great Britain and the rest of our competitors are back on their feet, desperately seeking an outlet for their goods. Loans Abroad (>ae Our loans abroad have ceased Our dollar is fluctuating and the British pound and the French franc are stabilized. Sterling again is the great international mon*y, not the dollar Hereafter, says the department of commerce, we shall be obliged to battle for every nickel's worth of trade we cet abroad, and sound dealing, tariff reciprocity, credit and good-will must be our chief weapons. In this situation, it is admitted here. Cuba just now is the key to Latin America The abdication of Dictator Machado is not the end but the beginning. During the “good years” we sold more than $1,000,000,000 annually to our southern neighbors Cuba alone bought $500,000,000 in 1920. May Win Back Trade By applying the Latin American conception of Pan-Americanism to Cuba—equality, co-operation and nonintervention—the United States stands to win back that trade, and more. Canadas per capita purchases from us. it was observed recently, amounted to SB3 a year On that basis Mexico could buy $1,250,000,000 worth of goods annually from the United States, and all Latin America more than $8 000 000.000 worth. UNIFORM REGULATIONS FOR TRUCKS STUDIED Officials of Four States Come Here for Code Meeting. Prospects of a national uniform code for regulation of trucks and busses in traffic were studied here Monday by officials of Ohio. Illinois. Michigan. lowa, and Indiana. They came at the invitation of Frank Finney. Indiana auto license commissioner Indiana representatives also were State Treasurer William Storen. Highway Commissioner Evan B Stotsenburg, and Public Service Commissioner Samuel Trabue. Representatives of the other states were from similar departments as well as state police. Problems caused by different state requirements in licensing and regulating trucks and busses were studied, with a view toward the proposed founding of a national commission. State's reciprocity agreements in handling foreign vehicle traffic also were studied, along with a current plan that congress be asked to create a national rccoprocity commission. I

Hollywood Frowns on Any Attempt to Annoy Stars Slim Summerville and Zasu Pitts at Last Talk About the Children They Have Adopted and Their Home Life. BY WAITER D HICKMAN HOLLYWOOD is frowning just now on any attempt to trespass on the privacy of the stars in their homes. More than ever, tne famous players are maintaining that they have the right to live their own lives just as you and I. But stories do leak out about some of the fine things noted stars do in Hollywood, but some of these good deeds remain a secret for a long time. That Is true when Zasu Pitts and Slim Summerville, stars of “Her Firs' Mate.” coming to the Apollo Friday, adopted children

The following facts about these two good deeds have been furnished me by Kenneth Collins of the Apollo theater: Summerville and his wife adopted a baby boy from an orphanage more than a year ago, but it was many months before the public learned that the little fellow was not a natural son of the couple. Then the secret was revealed by a newspaper writer who had promised to respect the confidence of the comedian, and not to publish the facts of the case The boy, a little more than a year old, was named Elliott. Zasu Pitts was the first screen star to adopt a child, and did it as the result of her great friendship for the mother who died. She had long been a close friend of the exotic actress. Barbara La Marr. an'd on the death of the latter many years ago, Miss Pitts and her husband. Tom Gallery, adopted the young Don Mike La Marr, as a companion for their own little girl. In "Salt Water” Summerville and Miss Pitts are presented as a married couple living in a little village on the shore of Long Island Sound, and the unusually ludicrous incidents and sparkling dialogue of the story are said to make it the most successful production in which they have ever appeared. William Wyler directed and the cast supporting the stars includes Una Merkel. Berton Churchill, Warren Hymer, Jocelyn Lee. George Marion and Henry Armetta. a a a Indianapolis theaters today offer: • Tugboat Annie,” at the Palace ‘second week'; Texas Guinan and her gang on the stage and "She Had to Say Yes” on the screen, at the Circle; "No Marriage Ties.” at the Apollo; "Mama Loves Papa.” at the Lyric; 'I Cover the Waterfront.” at the Ambassador.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

RETURN OF KEG BEER ANGERS LEGISLATORS •Robber’ Brand Is Put on Governor McNutt by Legislators. Members of the Indiana legislature cast glowering glances at places where draught beer was being sold today and muttered none too complimentary remarks about Governor Paul V McNutt, who legalized keg beer Saturday. Fearing the loss of what little patronage may be left, the legislature refused to be quoted, but privately branded McNutt as a "barefaced robber.” “He would not let us go for draught beer in the last session,” said one legislator, "and now he steals whatever glory is left. Well, just wait until the next legsislature. That’s all.” Observers said that McNutt, realizing his hold on the legislature is gone, had decided to take whatever

he could before the legislature convenes again In 1935. Contrasting with the last legislature, when McNutt's grip was un-1 contested, political forecasters de-1 clare that th next assembly will be a "grand free-for-all.” with Governor McNutt a sure choice to run last. Draught beer, they say, is the last straw. Steadfastly refusing to permit draught beer, the Governor, they charge, has turned the tables for his own benefit. And so. the big guns are leveled on "Indiana's Mussolini.” PARK RATES REDUCED “Two-Cent Day” to Be Repeated on Wednesday. Second "2-cent day” of the present season will be held at Riverside amusement park Wednesday, when the annual outing sponsored by the Butter Crust Pie Company will be held. Through arrangement between the park management and the pit company, fares on the resort's rides will be cut to 2-cents. and the public is invited to attend and enjoy the bargain rates in 'un. Preparations have been made to care for a throng at the park, and . the rides will all be in operation ! from noon until midnight, it is announced. In the event of rain on Wednesday, the outing will be held : on the next day.
