The landing of .American marines' in Nicaragua to assist Diaz, only made the liberals fight harder. :: "Our victories are, withheld, or diminished in importance, by the American authorities, who have OHtaulished a strict censorship against the liberals.' However, it does not matter how much assis tance the United States gives Diaz; the liberals will win. and, furthermore, even If thousands of American marines are launched against: the liberals' by ' way of "Wall street, we still have a long supply of American manufactured guns with which - to : defend the sovereignty sot our country." i. , - WASHINGTON, Dec. 30. .AP)-fThe dispute 'whether an ameriean censorship has been es tablished on radio stations in the N'lcaraguan neutral zone was settled today when the state de . partment announced that one had been In effect 'but hid been lifted- xThe department said it had just . been ' Informed by Rear' Admiral Latimer, la command of Ameri can forces" in Nicaragua, that - a censorship -had been ; established at Puerto Cabezas and Rio Grande bar 'to maintain the neutrality of tHe soue by preventing the send ing but "of military instructions or inforroation-by either side" in the factional strife in that country. 1 "The 1 admiral " reported furth er', said the departmental An nouncement !'that all censorship on .radio stations in the neutral zone Jhad been removed by his di rection.". : Until' the announcement was made, state department officials had insisted they were without in formation of any 1 censorship, as charged by Dr. T. S. Vaca, rep resentative here of the Sacasa lib eral taction in Nicaragua. Vaca called at the state depart ment, today, but was told by offi cials that Secretary Kellogg could not receive him inasmuch as he was not the representative of a government ' recognized by the United States. ' He said he called because he had heard the department had not received the ' censorship protest, which he delivered .yesterday to a messenger , In . Secretary Kel logg's office; ' He learned, how ever, that his protest had reached the secretary.

(AP) Prodded fcy Secretary Mellon, government chemists turned again to their test tubes today la an ef fort to' find some denaturant for Industrial alcohol which is not poison. .

He is not alarmed over the new formula which goes into effect January 1, containing four per cent' of wood alcohol in stead of the! custdmary two per cent because this formula will not contain the py rod ice used here tofore. ' ; ' Complete enforcement .of the prohibition law is an unreasonable expectation, the treasury head de clared today, and some people are going to continue to drink what ever they can get. He wants the substitutes and industrial- alcohol so treated so drinkers will be warned .by the taste and smell tbat it is not good. Mr. Mellon does not believe that that numerous holiday alcoholic deaths resulted from denatured alcohol but rather probably too much drinking was responsible. Even before prohibition, he re tailed, there were deaths from the use of poisoned alcohol which was resorted , to by some dishonest dealers. nd drinkers. James M. iDoran, chief of tbe prohibition chemists, went today to Philadelphia and New York, but officials would not Bay that he was Investigating the numerous deaths from alcohol in these cities recently. As to Industrial alcohol, Secre tary Mellon is of the opinion that its leakage into bootleg channels has proved one of the main prob lems of enforcement, as a result of the shutting off of the sources of supplies from rum row and domestic distilleries. A special sa'uad has .been ordered by Assis tant Secretary Andrews, dry chief. to block the source of supply.
