KING IS FEARLESS

RepubIicaniSm Threats.

MADRID, March 8.--King Alton
so is pushing his political course ap-
parently without fear of losing his
crown, and without any evidence of
nervousness over repeated rumors
that the sweep Of Republication
will result in his abdicatiOn.
An answer to the question How
does the king feel about these Re
publican manifestations since the
fall of the dictator, Primo De Ri
vera, was obtained from informed
statesman.
Alfonso considers he has fulfilled
every one of his obligations to the
constitution, accepting the limita
ton upon his powers when De Ri
vera assumed the dictatorship. but
himself forbidding the dictator's
proposal to establish one-chamber
legislature and adopt other changes
in the constitution.

DRY MOVES BLOCKED
Little Chance of Further
Legislation Now.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON. March S.-Fur-
ther prohibition legislation at this
session Of congress seemed I'M
probable today in view of the wide
difference of opinion which has de-
veloped in the house over the adj
ministration's enforcement program.
So far, only one of the Wicker
sham law enforcement commissions
proposals, all of which we're APP
proved by President Hoover, has
been acted upon-the suggestion
that the prohibition bureau be
transferred from the treasury to the
justice department.
A bill to effect this shift has
passed the house and probably will
be approved by the senate when the
tariff bill is completed.

new COALITION
is IN CONTROL
OF TARIFF BILL
Cunning for Increases in
Lumber, Oil, MenaCing
Chance of Passage.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March "a new
coalition of sectional tariff rate
seekers appeared to be in control Of
the tariff bill in the senate today,
it's members embarked upon a full
rewriting of the measure as drawn
during the last three months by the
farm bloc coalition.
Sugar and cement, the two chief
points Of dispute all along, are
scaIps upon their belts, and they
now are after lumber and oil.
Changed Their Votes
Although the farm bloc, low tariff
advocates won all these fights pre-
yiously. a sufficient number of SEN
ators have changed their votes to
reverse the former actions as to
sugar and cement. The leaders claim
sufficient number will change to
put duties on lumber and possibly
on oil.
The results to date, and the pros
poets for the future, have thrown
the whole tariff question again
wide open. just at a time when 1t
appeared the senate was going to
pass the bill. The farm bloc lead
ers say they will not go down
without struggle, and there are
hints that they may seek to kill
their own farm relief tariff bill II
the industrial schedules continued
to be revised upward at the behest
of the new and secret coalition.
Justify Stand
A number of those senators who
changed their positions from pre-
vious roll calls have justified their
switches by saying the rates now be-
ing proposed are not so high as were
previously proposed.
Charges have been made openly
on the floor that a secret under
standing exists, but whether these
charges are true or not, the various
groups are getting what they want
