sands were homeless.
Houses, public buildings, rail-
road stations, sugar mills and
shops were destroyed, with dam-
age estimated at many millions.
It was the worst storm in modern
Cuban history. It was feared the
tobacco crop was heavily dam-
aged, as well as the sugar.
Among the destruction was the
inundation of sugar warehouses
at Neuvitas, with the reported de-
struction of 2,000,000 sacks of
sugar. The customs and court
house roofs were gone. Several
hundred were homeless there.
Many buildings were damaged
or destroyed in the city of Flor-
ida, and two were dead. Six were
killed at the Central Velasco su-
gar mill near the north coast. Sev-
en were dead at Central Senado.
Numerous small craft were de-
stroyed along the coast and the
fisuing industry crippled.
The government was making
every possible effort to speed re-
lief to the thousands of homeless
and injured. The number of the
latter could not be estimated. The

It wa» believed here the death 1- estimated as high as 1,000, with
list in the stricken' town would
greatly exceed 800, eince most of
the buildings were of wood and
the inhabitants would find no
nearby refuge in the lowland cane
fields and swamps. The town is
built on marshaland surrounded
by swamps and lagoons. It lies be-
hind a snug archipelago and 12
small keys known as Queens Gar-
dens. It was feared the 60 inhab-
itants of the keys, mostly fisher-
folk, had perished.
Santa Cruz Del Sur is an im-
portant fishing, lumber, sugar and
cattle port and is used as | ‘

line enters the town on trestles
over the swamps. It had only two
concrete buildings, the remainder
being flimsy wooden structures.
Three hundred survivors reach-

Ten of them died en route and
eighty others were hurried to the

The military were in charge in
Camaguey and the surrounding

taken to prevent looting. Troops

ports he planned to visit Great
Britain and Europe before his in-
auguration March 4, but close
friends asserted positively he had
no intention of leaving American
policies and programs looking to-

Sources close to Roosevelt

"and when you have no authority
you cannot exercise any.”
Dictatorship Trend
Fourteen years after the end of
tho war “to make the world safe
for democracy,” dictatorships are
plentiful. In varying degrees, the
governments of Italy, Russia and
Poland approach pure dictator-
ships while Great Britain, Ger-
many and Japan are tending to-
ward that status.
In the zeal for everlasting peace
that followed tho Armistice, the
League of Nations and the World
Court were established as bul-
warks against war. The powers
met here to limit battleship con-
struction and make a new deal to
establish stability end peace in the
Pacific. From the Washington
conference of 1922 resulted the
Nine Power Pact, guaranteeing
Chinese sovereignity . Six years
later the nations signed tho Kel-
j logg-Briand Pact, abjuring war.
