'With or withiut offense to friends or foe I ekttch your world exactly as it goes." Byron Public Works Program In a summary of progress made in creating jobs for the unemployed by the $3,.'i00 million public works fund, Secre tary Ickes, director of the national recovery campaign, states that over f 1,000 million has been already allotted to specific projects since the passage of the act by congress on June 16 and actual construction work is now underway. While all reasonable safeguards for the public's money are being evoked and every possible effort made to prevent profeteering and graft, delays have been avoided as far as possible and the utmost speed required. The full force of the public works effort will not be felt for some time, but it Is working and will be cumulative in effect. Mr. Ickes savs : Our decentralized stato organization for handling the program ln teligently on a low-cost basis with slashed overhead has now been com pleted and Is functioning. But while we were building, we could not hesitate, for ours was an emergency task for which there was dire need. Therefore, the public works administration drove on with immediate and continuous action, turning dollars Into Jobs. Available machinery was Invoked. The first heavy blow to unemployment was taken ot the earli est moment possible, when President Roosevelt allotted $400,000,000 for load building. The money was immediately assigned to the states. They have now qualified their roads projects with the government through the United States bureau of roads and the advertising of contracts and other requirements for protection of public money lias gone forward with minimum delay. Three hundred road projects giving employment to 27 000 men in 185 counties of 19 states have been approved by the government and more are to follow. Navy shipbuilding to put $238 millions at work in creating jobs and buying ma terials is also underway. With the completion of state or ganizations, many allotments to non-federal projects will be made and many projects will also fail to win endorsement, for no fund would be large enough to finance all the schemes offered. "The public works program is well launched and getting results," concludes Mr. Ickes. The Cuban Revolt The Cuban revolt to end the ruthless dictatorship of President Machado ran true to form of Latin American revo lutions. Political factions in these republics are powerless without the military and the army and navy decide the fate of government. Deserted by the army, which had hitherto upheld him, Machado had no alternative but resignation and flight. All the many changes of government that have swept South America the past few years, were due to military dis content. Fortunately for the United States the overthrow of rvla rhndn wn. hrouirhh about without intervention. The media tion proposal advanced by Ambassador Welles, that harmony be restored by the resignation of the president, proved suf ficient to induce the army leaders to desert Machado, lost in tervention follow. And like all other dictators, tne uuan executive refused to recognize the situation until the storm broke. Cuba, like other Caribbean nations, is dependent upon Wash in tr ton. for it is the United States that finances and dcvelopes their industries and furnishes their market. And ve haven't done a very creditable job in exploiting them, for we have made them one crop countries in which economic dis tress flourishes and human misery thrives. Machado was generally credited with being the tool of certain American financial interests engaged in exploiting the sugar industry. Whether he was or not, a new deal is now 'In prospect for President Roosevelt has plans for re organizing the industry and placing a sugar export quota in effctft, so that the over-production problem will be solved and a diversified agriculture be introduced. Continuation of Pear Prices From Page One $20 a ton pear It can do bo not only as to pears to be bought the bal ance of the season but to cover the pears already purchased and add a $5 a ton price on them. Gunners who have purchased pears, from what can be learned will not do much kicking on this as long as the price Is made compulsory on all sorts and classes of pear buyers. If the price on the product la forced up it is understood the govern' nient will also force up a propor tionate price on future contracts in the can, although under these conditions it is understood the buyer will not be forced to buy btit if he does buy we will have to take Ins pears on the new price. There were no new developments In the situation as far as learned here today other thnn that can ners arc willing to take the dose prescribed if the medicine is dish ed out all around in like qunn titles. At the meeting last week in Scat' tic with W. O. Allen, George, R. C. and W. H. Paulus present from Salem when a $15 price was agreed to provided it was made compulsory all around the telegram framed covering the canners" attitude was as follows to the adjustment ad ministration at Washington: "At today's meeting attended by com' niittee of Northwest Canners' as sociation and committee of North west Fruit Industries, Inc., after a thorough canvass of the crop and economic situation a substantial majority of canners present agreed to purchase their requirements at not less than 515 a ton tor no. i Bartletts and $10 for No. 2s, pro vided: AAA will protect them by wringing California and other north West canners including cooperatives iftnd so called profit sharing opera tors Into line so that they will not buy for less than above prices. Canners In these groups would like to draw up temporary agreement among themselves as above stated pending permanent agreement with secretary of agriculture and would Editor and Publisher Continuation of Business Better From Page One creases in lumber prices have been recorded In the last three months which have gone far toward restora tion of price levels that will avoid further capital loss. Rapid and un balanced price advances should be discouraged, it said, and gradual advances to cover expected advanc ing costs made. "The great public and Industry need is consumption increase which awaits Increased public buying pow er,' tne committee said. "Every effort should be made to promote this purchasing power by co-operatiug with the action of the national recovery administration to ward increased employment and wages without excessive or too rapid price advances. "There Is Impressive evidence that the general business trends are up ward." The committee consists of Thomas S. Holden. vice president F. W. Dodge Company, New York; M. W. Stark, lumber and coal economist of Columbus, Ohio; Calvin Fentress, chairman of the board of Baker, Fentress 5 company, Chicago; Dr. Wilson Compton, secretary and manager, National Lumber Manu facturers Association, and Axel A, Ocholm. chief of the Lumber and Paper Division, department of Com merce. like a reply from you as to how far they can proceed as outlined above under this emergency. It is believed it was this tele gram which brought the answer Saturday from Washington pro testing the $15 price as too low. in tne meantime the pear sea son moves nearer apace. It was ex pected pears would start moving north from Giants Pass and Med- ford today toward Salem and a week from today from Kosebura. The first pears are expected to ar rive here about Wednesday with the pear canning season probably starting in about 10 days. Large packs are expected to be nut up in California and Oregon. SERIES WITH SEALS, 4 TO 3 By Associated Press Despite two week-end trimmings by Seattle, Los Angeles continued to pace the Coast league today, a few points ahead of Portland and Sac ramento, who likewise receipted for double lickings. The last place Indians outslugged Los Angeles U-10, Saturday and thumped them again 6-1 in yester day's opener behind George Caster's 4-hit pitching. Three Seattle errors and lusty triples by Tut Stainback and Gene Lillard helped the league leaders to a 7-2 win in the 7-inning nightcap. Los Angeles took the series by a 5-3 margin. Winning 2-1 Saturday and 15-t in the first game yesterday, San Francisco added Portland to its vic tim list with a 4-3 series triumph. The Seals beat Oakland three weeks ago and walloped Sacramento the week before last. Saturday Lee Stiue stopped the Beavers with 5 hits, Jimmy Zinn granted ten blows in yesterday's opener, while his mates banged Jacobs, Fitzke and Wilson for 17, including a home run, triple and single by John Bottarini. Port land won the short second game 4-1. Although defeated 3-2 Saturday and 7-5 in the second half of yes terday's twin bill, Sacramento came out ahead in its series with Holly wood, 4-3, Tom Flynn hurled the Senators to a 4-1 victory in the morning gume at Stockton. Oakland divided yesterday's dou bleheader with the Missions to walk off with the series, 5-2. Nifty 6-hit flinging by Lloyd Johnson gave the Reds the Saturday game, 8-4. With Bill Ludolph and Glenn Gabler lim iting the Missions to 5 scattered safeties, the Oaks came back to take yesterday's opener, 7-1. Four Oak land double plays were not enough to keep the Reds from capturing the nightcap, 8-7, helped by three Oak Errors to two unearned tallies. WW BY PAUL MALLON Washington, Aug. 14. If there is any fire in the eye of State Secre tary Hull, it is well under control. He has been the psrfect gentleman in the Moley case, openly and oriv- ately. Not a word has he uttered, except confidentially to President Roosevelt. The ship news reporters asked him about his relations with the No. 1 brain trustee when he arrived from Europe. He turned his head aside and looked at the ground awaiting Uie next question. No one lias men tioned the subject to him since. Prof. Murley is maintaining his war debts and Russian office in the .state department as well as his kid napping office in the department of justice. He is rarely in either of thcin. For days he has been out on the trail. For all inner and outer appearan ces, Mr. Roosevelt has smoothed over the first threat of a break in his topmost circle. Much has been laid at Moloy's door with which he had nothing to do. One hi just ice was done him in this column. It was related that he wired Hull from the ship coming back, asking lor press comment on his departure and received the answer: "Press un. commented." Further investigation indicates such a wire was sent and Molcy's name was signed to it, but he had nothing to do with it. Apparently his name was used by a member of his party more inter ested in publicity than he was. Poison Pen. A hundred other yarns with less foundation in fact have been whlsred around the profes sor. Some were invented by adver saries in the inner circle (not Hull) Others were conjured by gossipers who like a good story whether It is true or not. To keep the inside history strainrht. the following facts may be set down us gospel: Mr. Roosevelt was responsible for Moley flying up to the Ambcrjack, wiring mm to come tnat way. The President dir not communi cate with Moley about calling off his plane flight from Southampton to London. Moley cancelled the ; rangements on his own initiative. Moley sent personally only one wire from the returning ship Man hattan, That went to departmental adviser Bullitt. It is not involved In the current debate. There is no question but what a good many people have been shoot ing at Moley on the inside. Even be fore the inauguration they inspired a story that Mr. Roosevelt was get ting rid of htm. Moley saw the headline while com. ing down to Washington on the Presidential train. It read: "Moley to'be ousted." He dashed Into the midst of news men on the train demanding to know where they got such stuff. They had nothing to do with it. The story had been written by someone outside the regular White House press corps. In the recent publicity fracas he has kept as mum as Hull, his friends whisper he will have something to say later. He has obtained copies of messages from the radio log of the Manhattan to publish when he is ready. Power. Sad news for the power companies has been in the making at the federal commission for sev eral days. It will include a much more spe cific promise of a general water pow er investigation than was publicly offered by the commir;ton a few weeks back. Apparently the commls. sion Is literally going to count the drops of water Involved In the Na tioiunl power situation. The inquiry will day the basis for future legislation to promote public power development. That is what Senator Costlgan had mer than at the same time Sunday. Four o'clock Sunday afternoon found the mercury at the peak point of 94. Other hourly temperatures Sunday included: 10 a.m.. 78; It a.m. 82; 12 noon 86; 1 p.m. 89; 2 p.m. 92; 3 p.m. 95 and 4 o'clock 96. Coal. There Is another industry which has no defenders on the in side in this administration. That is coal. From the start, those closest to the White House have excelled that the coal crowd Is the only one with which they would have serious code trouble. It is also the only one with which they welcome a test fight. General Johnson has done all he. could to avoid court squabbles with other in dustries. The original blanket code idea has dropped for constitutional arguments. Each succeeding step has been carefully made voluntary (in name at any rate) so the recovery scheme could be kept out of the jurisdiction of judges. The real reason Johnson feels dif ferently about coal is that the gov ernment can make its best case on that issue. It is an interstate natural re source. The government has legal rights over natural resources that it does not have over private in dustries like steel and automobiles. Also, the larger mine operating side with the government. They want the chiseling finance required to compete on a fair basis. Beyond either of these considera tions backstage. Is the question of public opinion. The NRA experts are confident of popular support in a conflict with the coal industry that they might not have in some other cases. Notes. Ex-Treasury Secretary Mel lon intended to live in Washington when he left office. A few weeks afterward he found himself charged with organizing the fight against the administration's gold waiver. He left town then and has not returned. A Republican who called on Mellon some weeks ago found that the man who never reads newspapers had a newspaper clipping on his desk. It was a story charging that Treasury Secretary Woodin was not getting along well. Mellon made no com ment about It. Continuation of Heat Wave From Page One the year July 15, when the mer cury reached 92. Lack of a breeze made Sunday evening one of the warmest of the season and front porches, park benches and swimming holes were exceedingly popular up to a late Persons who journeyed to the coast seeking relief found them' selves wondering why they had left their overcoats and earmuffs at home. A chilly northwest wind, accompanied by a light drifting fog kept most of the seashore visitors around the cabin fireplaces Instead of in the surf. Mountain resorts reported sweltering temperature, ac centuated by lack of wind. Ninety in the shade was reported from Jjreitenbush whUe similar condi tions prevailed at Cascadia and oth er resorts. Portland, Aug. 14 (LP) Another day of extreme heat was in prospect today following a week-end of tem peratures reaching over the 100 mark at several Oregon points. Portland had a maximum of 90, and a minimum during the night of 64. The mercury rose to 112 at Sac ramento, setting an all time heat record. Yakima reported 102 which equalled the highest August tem perature there. Other hot spots included: Medford 102, Umatilla 102, Salem 96, Albany 95, Walla Walla 102. Pendleton, Aug. 14 (P) The hot test week-end of the summer was experienced here, with a maximum of 107 degrees Sunday, and 105 de grees Saturday.

Havana. Aug. 14 (P) As two United States ships of war steam ed into Havana harbor today to protect American property, renew ed outbursts of looting and arson impelled the Cuban military au thorities to order their soldiers to fire on all persons violating public order. Carlos Manuel De Cespedes. the new president, completed a cabinet which virtually Ignored the claims oi au ot tne old political parties, and the principal followers of the deposed president, Gerardo Machado followed their leaders example by fleeing the Island. Two of General Machado's coun try estates were sacked in celebra tion of the victorious revolution which forced the general to abdi cate and take refuge in the Ba hamas. The presence of two American warships in the harbor the des troyers Taylor and Claxton exer cised, officials said, and hope was expressed that hte violence attend ing the revolution was near its end. Tile U. S. S. Sturtevant was at Manzanillo on a similar assignment of protecting American lives and property. These warships did not Indicate intervention by the United States and their presence was ap proved by the new president.

Aug. 14 (Presi dent Roosevelt watched the Cuban situation intently today, still deter mined that the three destroyers he had sent to the island republic shall not intervene in domestic af fairs but just protect the lives and persons of American citizens. After considerable study, and with the approval of the new Cuban president, Carlos Manuel de Cespe des, Mr. Roosevelt last night dis patched two destroyers to Havana, on the north, and one to Manza nillo, on the south side of the is land. He issued this statement: "Latest advices are to the effect that domestic disturbances, includ ing acts of violence, arc occurring in parts of Cuba among certain elements of the population. "In these circumstances. I feel constrained as a matter of special precaution and sol-sly for the pur pose of safeguarding and protect ing the lives and persons of Ameri can citizens in Cuba, to order cer tain vessels to points on the Cuban coast. NO INTERVENTION "The change of government now taking place in Cuba is in entire ac cord with the recognized constitu tion and laws of that country, and no possible question of intervention or of the slightest interference with the internal affairs of Cuba has arisen or is intended by his pre cautionary step to protect, if neces sary, the lives of American citizens, pending the restoration of normal conditions of law and order by the uCban authorities. "I am giving strict instructions accordingly to the commanders of each vesssl. "The American people deeply sympathize with the people of Cuba in their economic distress, and are praying that quiet and strict order may soon prevail in every part ot Cuba. The American government will lend alt aid feasible, through constituted Cuban authorities, for the relief of the distressed people of the island."
