Rut reliable leaks indicate a system of government insured loans, first for home renovation, then home building, and finally demolition demo-lition of obsolete industrial plants And erection of new ones. The first phase involves loans of from $200 to $2000 at 5 per cent. Insurance companies and hanks will be tempted to finance new homes at a similar rate. They must cut carrying and service charges and extend amortization amorti-zation periods to perhaps 18 or 20 years.

Our officials have sighed and pretty well resigned themselves to that. President Mendieta, whom we backed and materially aided, in. the hope that he could handle a difficult situation, has proved weak and indecisive The island remains in a bad economic way and it seems that any benefit Cuba is due to derive from the new American sugar act won't he felt before next year.

Secretary Ifull is placing such bets as he dares make on Batista, leader in that spectacular "revolution "revo-lution of sergeants" who is still in full control of the army. That remarkable ex-sergeant is the "strong man" of Cuba, but apparently ap-parently has no political ambitions. ambi-tions. If pressure on Mendieta becomes be-comes too hot and conditions too dangerous, patriotic Batista probably prob-ably will swing his support elsewhere, else-where, as he did when he deserted desert-ed Grau San Martin. fCouyriffhU 1934.

It's an even greater, more impressive im-pressive record that Chevrolet is making for 1934! Already, sales are tens of thousands of cars ahead of last year. Production is running higher than that of any other automobile auto-mobile company in the world. And everyday, every-day, from 6tate after state, comes the same report on registrations: Chevrolet is leading all other cars! The big reason for such preference is plainly shown at the right. Chevrolet has so many vital features that others in the low-price field have left out: Knee-Action wheels that are fully enclosed for complete safety and absolute ab-solute dependability. A six-cylinder valve-in-' head engine with an exclusive "Blue-Flame" head. Big, "cable-controlled" brakes, the best in the low-price field. Large, spacious bodies by Fisher, with Fisher No Draft Ventilation. And real "shock-proof" steering steer-ing that brings new ease and comfort to driving. No other low-priced automobile has a single one of these five leading 1934 features. That's why no other can be backed by such a confident statement as tliis: CHEVROLET MOTOR CO., DETROIT, MICII.
