SleW-Wfctptelu Agency Cuba, verdant and beautiful, an Island paradlss set like a gem In the same gentle Sauthern wntera that lap tne wnite sands of the Florida coaat. has been grosslj- slandered bit some or tne Dig American newspapers. Cuba is vastly, more than an oasis where tourlsts'Trim the great Ameri can desert can still prop their feet on a brass rail and have drinks as in the "good old days." Some of the great metropolitan newspapers In the United States have published greatly exeaggerated reports about riotous drinking In the Island. The Cubans are "furious" about It. There Isn't so much Inebriety there after all, and besides bone dry legislation In Cuba looms as a possibility In the not so far distant future. Cuba Is making progress, commercially, politically, socially and morally. It Isn't nearly so naughty and wicked as lots of Americans sasm to think. These are 'some of the things a re porter for the Dally News Isarned about Cuba last night In talking with Rev. Arthur Paine, of the Friends cnurcn, ana jur. fame ahould cer tainly be an authority for he has just coma from Cuba, where for the past zs years he has labored aa a mission ary. r. Paine thinks national prohibi ts ' the most Drosrrssslve steo tak- k this country since the occasion of hla last visit here four yeara ago. lie Is a most ardent nrohibitlonlst. and thinks Cuba will follow our ex ample with bone dry lawa just as soon as sns becomes "educated to the beneflts which accrue from total abstinence, lie says the heaviest drinkers In Cuba now are the touriats and foreigners, for the most popular ueverage among the natives Is coffee. Mr. and Mrs. ralne arrived at Philadelphia laet Tuesday on board the S. 8. Orlsaba. Mr. Paine said he didn't see a drop of liquor on board and didn't see anyone drinking. But tne urisana dies the United States flag. ' In Philadelphia he said condi tions, with reference to the liquor question have undergone a marvelous change. This time he saw only two drunks.' and when he waa In the Quaker City four years ago lis said lie saw great suffering and -misery, ths result of liquor traffic, was sub jected to "insult" by drunks on the streets, and was nearly killed while In a taxi driven by an Intoxicated chauffeur. Mr. and Mrs. Pains came to 'the United States to place one of their sons In school. In Cuba they live at Jaruco, a town of 6.000 people, not far from the city of Havana. In the mission district where Mr. Paine works there are several stations and he Is laboring to build up the work of the church among the natives. According to Mr. Paine, there are three general divisions of the pop ulation In Cuba: the Spaniard, the Cuban and the negro. The protestant missions draw most of their converts from the Cuban element. Among the negro population he said there are still a few who cling to the Brujoho .religion, or "devil worship," a creed brough.1 lo the island- by negroes from darkest Africa. The Cuban government Is stamping out this re ligion, for the "devil worship" has as one of Its many mystic rites the execution and torture of human vic tims. Great commercial and trade oppor tunities await the Investor In Cuba, according to Mr. Paine. He thinks there Is great need of more Ameri can brains and dollars In developing the resources of the Island. Because the railroad facilities of the Island are inadequate to the great Industrial development, Mr. Paine said hundreds of American automo bile trucks are being used on the highways lo transport varloua kinds of merchandise. It was st this juncture of the In terview that the conversation, Inad vertently, returned to the liquor ques tion. The reporter asked the visitor about the price of gasoline in Cuba and was told that the 'Islanders are using alcohol to run their automo biles. Whether they drink It or not, apparently, alcohol is rather plenti ful. Mr. Paine explained that alcohol can be bought In Cuba for about 25 cents a gallon and. gasolinecosts from 50 to 10 cents a gallon. Alcohol, he said, Is manufactured cheaply out of the refuse from the big sugar mills. Mr. Pln said living comes high In Cuba, as prices on nearly every eommodlt are practically twice as high there aa they are here. Tonight at 7:80 .o'clock Mr. Paine will epeak at Spring Garden Street Friends church, and tell of his work In the mission ' fields. While In Greensboro Mr. and Mrs. Paine are guests in ths home of N. D. Andrews. 2 Chestnut street. This Is the first time the visitors have been In Greens boro for four years. They came here by automobile from Philadelphia, and expect to leave Tuesday by automo bile for Tampa, Fla., where they will ASKING THAT POWER BE SAVED IN SOUTH Southern Power Company Issues Request Tbat Concerns Observe One Weak Day. Because of the long dry season which made It necessary for the Southern power to pull down the head on their reservoua In order to supply power throughout the part of the country they serve, that company has Issued a request that, going into effect today In all territory north and east of Salisbury, there be a curtail ment In the use of electrical current. The company claims that It has kept all steam plants running for the last two months, and that rt will continue to keep them' in operation; hut even that will, not fill the need for power unless the dry spell abates. Greensboro Is In what they call, section No. 1, which Is all territory north and eaet of Salisbury, and It Is requested that a conservation of power be observed In this district on every Monday from a. m. until C p. m. There are five districts, and all of them are asked to observe one day out of each week. This Is by no mesne an announce ment that the Southern power com pany will cut off all electricity on ths days mentioned, because to do that the matter would have ta come before the corporation commission, but it simply means that they are making the request that all concerned make an effort to conserve power In their district on the daya under which they are listed.

A congrsss of negroes the world, either at Moscow or somewhere In the United Ststes. for the purpose of bettering themselves and asserting their rights, was pro posed before the third Internationale which has devoted several days to the estlon of the negroes. A sub-com- ssion. which dealt with negro af fairs, recommended the calling of a egro congress, but the Interna tlonale has not yet approved the re port. Two negroes, one of them an American delegate, addressed the In ternationale. The latter asserted that a form of slavory actually exists today In the southern states and that American negroes are in a most un happy condition, partly due to capi talists using them as strikebreakers whenever serious trouble arises with the onions.
