REPORT
MEXICO CUT, Aug. 13 (UP)— The Pan-American Highway from Laredo, Tex., to Mexico City, will be completed and in good condition by July, 1933. th- Secretary of Communication-. General Miguel Acosta, told the United Press in an exclusive interview. Provided nothing interfers with these construction plans, the Mexican capital expects next summer to entertain thousands of tourists who select thi- cool and refreshing mountain valley for their vacations. A few hour after leaving Monte- ! rey, the motorists on the Pan-Ameri-can Highway begins to approach some of the mo-t impressive mountain scenery in the Western Hemisphere. After ascending to approximately 10.000 feet above sea level, the road drops down to Mexico City where, at 7,300 feet, the summer weather is delightfully coni and the most inter-e-ting parts of the country conven-
iently at hand.
Several parties of motorists traver- ■ -oil the road from l-aredo to this city this year, before the rainy season began, and in general the> found the

PARIS, (UP)—As the new $1,500,000 embassy of the United States takes form on an historic site in the Place de la Concorde, its naked ironwork skeleton now being completed, a protest has started that the building is rot in harmony with its neighbors and destroys the symmetry of the great square designe i by Gabriel in
the 18‘h century.
Th" Paris satirical weekly Cyrany blames the municipality for tolerating the building of an embassy in such a site and di covers that the embassy will be one story higher than the Hotel Sin t Fb-rentin, across the
i’la'-p de la Co: c posed to balance.
The American engineers, its Amer-
ican architects, Delano and AldiichJ a |jy graduates of the Beaux Art.- in Paris, 1 ral||f . w hH e and embas-y officials insist that the travelers
finished building will complete the ,. xist at al |. ^ Mexican government,

“Cyrano,” frightened at the sight mi j s paged to disseminate a wide-
of the block steel skeleton, declared; “Every le, including th ■ Americans,' understood that the embassy t ■ ■ nci 'ic Rot schild man sion, and in U i g the i merstone, A mbassador Edge men ione I that con ditinn. Alas, the emba-sy will lie ten feet highe r than th- Hotel St. Klor-

CRIME
(LIB ON RIVIERA IS
General Jose Sanjurjo (above), leader of the monarchist uprising in | Seville, is reported to have fled Spain when his forces surrendered to government troops that converged on the city from a half dozen directions. Sanjurjo was known as a friend of the exiled former King I A Ifansn the Riviera last March well supplied with money. When he debarked he went straight to a deluxe hotel on the Promenade des Anglais. Less than a week later he was jailed on a holdup charge, caught in the act! “In the meantime he had tried to murder a garage owner. I hat, too, was proven. Despite the overwhelming evidence, he denies everything ‘Third degree’ methods have failed. He tried to hang himself in his cell.” Then there was the ease of “Tom Clark,” the American whose body was found floating in the waters off Cannes last January. ■Clark, a tourist, had no money and no enemies. Yet. as far as police know, he was murdered. His body was buried in a pauper’s grave because police had no authority for his identity other than a hastily scribbled name on the regi-ter in a tawdry hotel. 1 Also there was the case of young Martin, 20 year old son of a Cannes merchant. Martin had no enemies. He had no money. His body was found floating in the water, just as Clark’s was, off Antibes. These are just a few of the eases that could be quoted in support of the theory that there are people on this coast who commit crime for the love of it. FORECAST 11 HOI R TRAINS FROM SI-1’H I-NEW YORK St. PAUL, Minn.. (UP)—Hormeti-ally-sealed train.-, streamlined to the “Nth” degree, run ing from St. Paul to New York in 11 hours! This was th- prediction advanced by J. Archie Borland, St. Paul in /entor, for the new “super-train" to he built in time for exhibition at the Chicago World’s Kuir. Construction - of the train, which will reach a speed of 180 miles an hour on present roadbeds according to the inventor, will complete four years of research and designing, and will cost $1,000,000. Dies and patterns are to lie mixtructed immediately, since some of the nation's foremost experts have approved the plans, Borland .-aid. While the ordinary train running] between New York aid Chicago with 15 couches requires fuel costing $785,1 Borland says his train will use only $Dj8 for motive power, and will travel nearly three times as fast. The Borland Pullman is lighter than the avenge coach now in use. Today the Pullman car weighs 111) toi s. Borland's Pullman will weigh 44 C ns.
