BOMB OUTRAGE IN CUBA
NEWSPAPER BUILDING BLOWN UP FOUR KILLED AND 27 INJURED (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) (Fee. 10 p.m.) Havana, September 20. Four people were killed and 27 were injured when a bomb concealed in a small truck shattered the building of the newspaper El Pais and a church on the opposite side of the street, causing damage amounting to 200,000 dollars (£40,000). A second explosion was averted, as the police found 150 sticks of dynamite in a car outside the office of the newspaper Dairio de la Marina. One theory is that terrorists were angered by the newspapers’ sympathies with the Spanish rebels, and another is that the anti-Gomez element was responsible for the outrage.
