WALL STREET AIDS
MUSS0LINI REGIME
Financial Experts Say Americans
Show Confidence by Long
Term Loans.
~ ihe Associated presa.

By fne Associated fFe5ss
ROME, April 26.--Wall Street ap-
parently is confident of the Fascist
regimes durability.
American bankers. say financial au-
thorities here, are showing this con-
fldence by granting long-term loans TO
Italian industrial enterprises, which
depend upon financial economic plans
of Mussolinia and Count Volpi.
The total of these loans was
brought above the S100.000000 mark
by a $20,000,000 loan to credit con-
sortium for public works" floated In
New York by j. r. Morgan and the
National City and First National
Banks.
In addition to several million dol
lars worth of short-term operations
the following long-term loans have
been negotiated i'm the American mar
ket: Twenty millions to Edison Milan
by international Powers Securities,
Wilmington; $20,000,000 to Credit In
stitute for Public Works by Blair
Chase; $4,000, 900 to Fiat by Morgan;
S6000,000 to United Electrical by
Rollings; S6,000,000 to Lombardy
Electric by Blair 10000 600 10 Mon
tecatini by Marshall Field and Guar
anty Trust; S6000,000 to Adamello,
Milan, by Harris Forbes.
The total, it is asserted, would have
been much larger if Count Volpi had
not insisted that loans be confined to
basic necessities, all being mortgage
operations not entailing control of
business. The loans incidentally are
helping Mussolini's fight TO improve
the value of the Ira, since all dollars
granted industries are taken up by
the Fascist governments treasury,
which gives the credits their equiv
alents in line.

Fletcher not only laughed at him, the

Fletcher and told him to go away, but
the plaintiff refused and struck the
Policeman. he says, whereupon he
was placed under arrest and charged
with disorderly conduct and assault.
The case was called for trial i'm Police
Court March II. according to the plea
of defendant, and the court declared
Fletcher guilty of assault and fined
him S25 and took his personal bonds
on the disorderly conduct charge.
Later, at request of Attorney Fred 3.
Rhodes for the accused, the coart re-
versed its finding and granted new

dismissed both charges. Owens claims
he was justified in making the arrest
and may not be held responsible in
damages because of the dismissal of
the cases in Police Court.
