Sound Basis.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22-CBy a.
P.)-After many months OF cOnfu-
sion and uncertainty. the recon
struction Of Cuba's political and fis-
cal affairs is nearing completion on a
basis which the state department
officials regard as promising an era
OF restored confidence and tran
guilty throughout the island repub-
lie.
The reform program in the draft
ing OF which Cuban officials have
had the constant aid Of Maj Gen.
Enoch II. Crowder or the American
army and is said in advices received
here 20 have reached a stage where
reestabhshment of governmental
and financial stability appears to be
assured for the near future.
Numerous changes in the govern
ment machinery, making possible
the retirement Of fiscal and Judicial
officials who stand in the way Of
needed reforms. are coupled in the
reorganization plan with a sweeping
rehabilitation of the entire tax col
lecting and distributing system Of
the public treasury.
In a statement detailing the entire
restoration program tonight the
state department manifested the
thorough satisfaction with the turn
taken by Cuban affairs. and pre-
diCted that proper execution of
the plans now agreed upon among
Cuban officials undoubtedly would
go far toward decentralization and
the betterment of business condi-
