The decree means that a drastic military regime will hold power in Cuba until order Is restored. The capital was outwardly calm today, but Intermittent shots and bomb explosions rang through the dark, deserted streets during the night. Two persons were wounded by bombs and a child was badly hurt when a bus, manned by soldiers, was fired on. Scores were added to the hundreds already under arrest. Only troop trains were running on the railways, and street cars, buses, and taxicabs, heavily guard ed by police or soldiers, rolled through the streets only at wide Prof. Edward Fisk Exhibits Paintings At Art Museum An exhibition of pictures by Prof. Edward risk, of the University department of Art, opened at the University Art Center yesterday and will continue through March 24.

The offices of this department are In the University library. This new department has been organized for the purpose of promoting the best use of all types of land In our state. "In the state of Kentucky only about one fifth of the farm land can be cultivated for a profit." "After extensive study of the economic condition of the average farmer of the state, and a study of the land conditions of thees different districts, and comparing the two, we are able to determine lh practically every case, the chances of making a profit on that particular farm." "It Is our ultimate hope that we may be able to educate the rural population of our state, in ideas of conservative use of land, the necessity of reforestation, and In sclentiflo methods of farming." This department Is a branch of the AAA, and its most active work at the present time is its land buying for the purpose of reforestation. They are also Interested in the modern garden, and all types of landscaping, the Introduction of new plants best suited for our particular soils." In such a program we hope that sometimes In the future we can life the farmer to a standing where he can secure a decent living and not have to dig It out of the soil by brute strength, as he has done since the dawn of history." This, Mr. Poundstone gave as a summary of their program.
