Sqj Ambhassador Head Of Technical Police Is Informed Of Plan To Assassinate Ca ,e ry Envoy Is In Favor Of Present Reginie Communists Desiring To Overthrow Government Blamed For Attempt HAVANA, May 26.-(P)--Caye- tano Fraga, chief of the Cuban tech- nical police, announced today that he had information of a plot to assassi- nate Jefferson Caffery, United States Ambassador to Cuba, and to destroy; United States property. He said that the technical police as a result were observing the strictest vigilance of the Ambassador and of all American-owned buildings. Praga said that in the last few nights a mysterious car had been observed loitering along the streets in which the American Ambassador travels each evening or his way to his home in the outskirts of Havana. This car, said the police chief, has disappeared at full speed each timel there has been a sign of police ob- servance. "We have given chase two or threeE times," he said, "but the car has al- ways' been too fast for us. However,j we are taking precautions and, with- out Mr. Caffery's knowledge, one ofI our radio cars follows him wherever he goes" Fraga laid the blame for the ,al- leged plot on communists "and otherI enemies of President Mendieta andI Cuba, who wish this government to1 fall, and with it, the Cuban Repub- lic." The police official said that he had no definite clue regarding the identity of the alleged plotters, but he pointed out that a bomb was explodedI May 22 in the Havana Post Building "as proeA of the existence of a plot4 against American property" Mr. Caffery, who is from Louisiana, a United States diplomat for 20 years,' and former Assistant Secretary ofj State; went to Havana December 12, 1933, as President Roosevelt's per-' sonal representative.

Mr. Caffery was then made Ambassador.

As the gleaming steel train flashed across the plains, it averaged 91 miles an hour from Holdrege to Minden, making the average speed out of Den- ver 80 miles an hour for the' 353.9- mile run.

There has been some disposition for the United States to delay prohibiting arms sales until defite international action has been taken, but American officials now feel that there is no logical reason to wait. The League of Nations has re- quested data on an international arms embargo from 31 nations and has called an extraordinary session on May 30 to deal exclusively with the Chaco situation and the proposed em- bargo. GENEVA, May 26.-P)--Cabellero Bedoya, Paraguayan representative to the League of Nations, announced today that Paraguay would cease ap- plying the rule of international law "in force between civilized peoples" to Bolivia. His announcement created a sen- sation here. The Paraguayan communication to the league said that, to its great re- gret, Paraguay mi follow ,Bolivia's example of warfare. The reference was to Bolivia's aerial bombardment of two towns and Bo- livia's alleged threat to bombard As- uncion, the capital of Paraguay. T'ruekdrivers ReturnTo Jobs In Minneapolis MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., May 26.- (0) - Teeming activity replaced dis- order, death and *bloodshed in the city marketplace today as truckers signalized the end of a truekdrivers' strike which has paralyzed commer- cial trucking since May 15. Businessmen estimated that the re- vival of truck transportation resulted in a million dollars worth' of business today, and termed their estimate con- servative as produce houses and gar- deners had their first opportunity to dispose of perishable food. They said the strike had cost them thou- sands of dollars in spoilage. Peace came to the harassed city as the result of an accord signed last night by representatives of the strik- ing drivers and their employers. Members of the General Drivers and Helpers Union, No. 574, won their principal demand, union recognition, under the agreement. LEAVES $1,500,000 CHIAGO, May 26. - (A') - An es- tate of $1,500,000 was left by Joy Morton, chairman of the Morton Salt Co. who died May 9, it was revealed today when the will was filed for pro- bate. The ways of the banker were just as mysterious in Graeco-Roman Egypt as they are in the United States, it was revealed yesterday by Dr. Enoch Peterson, who headed the recent Uni- versity expedition to Karanis. While receiving a visit from Presi- dent and Mrs. Alexander G. Ruthven this winter Dr. Peterson and his workers uncovered a treasure of coins and objects of art in a house that had burned on the Karanis site. In describing the find, Dr. Peter- son said, "There on the floor level lay a huge pile of bronze coins, beside a large earthenware jar, partly sunk beneath the floor. We gathered them in baskets and sent them down to the house for safe keeping. "No sooner had they been care- fully stored away than the workmen called us back to the same room. There on the other side lay another large pile of coins. "Close beside this hoard were other bronze objects. Blowing away the soil by means of hand bellows we un- covered the objects one by one, a bronze lamp, a small cupid standing on a bronze base, and a bronze fe- League's Exhibit Shows Faculty's Sun Bath Statues; It happened during the intermission last night, at the presentation of "Meet My Sister" at the League. Sev- eral dignified professors stood about in the League Concourse, amid the, sculpture display, and guffawed loud- ly. But contrary to first expectations, they were not laughing at the comedy they were seeing in the theatre, but at a good joke that had been played on some of their own colleagues. It all began because the League had those statues. Those six statues, to be exact, since not all the statues were picked by the anonymous judge to fig- ure in the incident. And the six sta- tues in question were "Infinity," by Louise French, "Dr. John G. Winter," by Anna R. Winter, "Lassitude," by Faith Crittenden, "Dr. Margaret Bell," by Helen W. Bailey, and "Sacrifice," by Phyllis Swift Buxton. At least, that was what the labels said. But first came the bust of a certain professor in the Latin department, la- belled "Infinity," by an art judge who had at some time studied Latin. A well-muscled athlete, freshly emerged from some cool lake, and taking a sun- bath on a rock, was labelled "Dr. John G. Winter." Thenthere was a portrait of a woman of energy and determina- tion, for some reason labelled "Lassi- tude," while if the tag told the truth some sculptor had caught a glimpse of Dr. Bell taking a tan treatment i a rocky grotto frequented by nymphs Meanwhile the; "Recovery" tag originally attached to the graceful Greek now bearing Dr. Winter's name, had been attached by the judge, who must have been a Republican, to s beautiful girl chained to a rock, asort of "Promethea Bound."

Sale Of Announcements For Graduation To End Seniors intending to order com- mencement invitations will have their last opportuinty tomorrow, according to John *S.

Howland stated last night ,that a committee member will be sta- tioned from 9 to 12 a.m. and 1 to 3 p.m. tomorrow at a desk in the lobby of Angell Hall. male figure all covered with the black soil filling the room. We could tell at once that it was an Aphrodite fig- ure, perhaps an Isis-Aphrodite. It was about 35 centimeters in height." Dr. Peterson said many more coins were discovered in the house and when the grand count was taken with President and Mrs. Ruthven assist- ing it was found that there were more than 13,000. The explanation of this multitude of coins and the Aphrodite figure in one complex of houses can only be speculation, Dr. Peterson said. The coins that have been examined were all of the late third century period, before the year 295 A.D., when all local imperial coinage ended in Egypt by edict of the Emperor Dio- cletian. The owner may have been a banker or a wealthy Karanidian caught with this worthless currency, Dr. Peterson speculated. The fire that destroyed the house may have made it impossible to recover the coins, he said, or perhaps some more compli- cated economic- dilemma accounts for this rich hoard left untouched for centuries in the sands of Egypt.

PARKER Michigan's tennis team, which placed second in the recent Big Term tournament, two and one half points behind~ Chicago, struck back at the Maroon netmen yesterday afternoon at the Ferry Field courts and handed them their first defeat of the year, 'a 4-to-2 beating. The victory gives Michigan an op- portunity- to claim the mythical Cn-' ference dual meet, championship in view of the fact that Minnesota, al- though" undefeated and untied, did not play Chicago or Michigan and stood a poor third in tournament play at' the Windy City. Appelt Stars Joe Appelt, playing his last match for the Wolverines,.copped the laurels in yesterday's five hour tiff as he. handed Trevor Weiss his first defeat in two years of dual competition,'~-6, 6-3, 12-10. The Appelt-Weiss match was by far the most colorful aInd drama- pAcked tilt played this year on the Ferry Field courts. Weiss, after drop- ping the second set, 34, had a 5-2 ad- vantage over Appelt in the third set, but Joe put on a sudden spurt and deuced the games.,Torom then n the spectators were thrilled by the. spec- tacle of Weiss fumbling eight different match points and Appelt grinning and deucing the games again. Finally with the score 10-9 against him and the count 40 to love for Weiss, Appelt put' on another miraculous spurt, took. the next three games and match. Davidson Wins Again The Max Davidson-Seymour Siegel match, which was neaxky a duplication of the finals at Chicago, was over- shadowed by Appelt's brilliant per- formance. However, Davidson, by far put on the best exhibition in de- feating Siegel, 6-2, 0-2. Segel, on the defensive all the while, was again outsteadied,.outplayed at the net and at the serving line. Daniel Kean and Howard Kahn easily downed Mitchell Duell and George Factor, respectively, of the Maroons. Kean chose an auspicious time to take his first singles win in dual competitionedince the Oberlin meet, as he defeated Duel, 7-, 6-1, win. Kahn took his eighth singles match in dual competition, 6-4, 6-2. Bowles and Siegel won a rather easy doubles tilt from Factor and Duel , 6-0, 6-2, for the fourth and, deciding point. Kahn and Appelt-made a sur- prising stand against the Big Ten doubles champions, Davidson and Weiss, and offered a genuine chal- lenge to the undefeated pair, but eventually lost, 06, 7-5, 4-6.
