With delegates and alternates from

It iS not uncommon to see a dele

Something like that happened. ac-
cording to a story told by Chairman

that were dropped approximate more
than $685. This represents sums
named in the alleged evasion counts of
the criminal charges, alone.
It was said at the Treasury today
that the criminal counts did not cover
all alleged evasions. as only the strong
er counts were included in the indict-
ments. Thus the actual assessments
will total thousands Of dollars more
than the amount cited in the papers
issued by the grand jury.
The criminal case involving the
largest sum was that Of Jules Fisher,
brother of Joseph. Taxes and penal
ties cited in the indictment against
Jules amounted to $63,679.
Weiss was named as an individual
and as a partner In the Louisiana
Quarry Co. In the individual indict-
ment, he was charged with non-pay-
ment of $37.420 in taxes and penalties.
The quarry company was charged with
evading payment of $18,324.
A curious situation in the Louisiana
Quarry Co., case was that c. N. Mich
OILS, H. S. Schiff and r. s. Wilson,
named with the firm in the same in
dictment. all entered pleas Of nolo con-
tendere, but Weiss, also named,
pleaded not guilty. The firm was fined
81 900, and the trio who pleaded,
500 each.
The Mississippi Valley Co., in which
case the Nelson brothers, John P. and
w. w.. were cited, was charged with
evasions aggregating $43,9l8.
The Hartwig Moss Insurance Agency
case, in which Mike Moss was in
volved. listed taxes and penalties Of
$1S,324 due the Treasury.
Lesser amounts were involved in the
cases of Joseph c. Myers. r. L. Gay,
Walter e. Cooke, Adolph F. Schu-
macher, John B. Mcguire and Jack
Pizzolato, all Of whose cases were dis
missed on recommendation Of the
United States attorney.
An indictment against Joseph Has,
pei, an anti-Long man. also was dis
missed.
In suggesting to Federal Judge Bo-
rah at New Orleans that the charges
be dropped, Viosca declared a careful
study Of the cases had convinced him
convictions could not be obtained and
that further prosecution would entail
useless expense and time.

Fascists Continue Push on Madrid
With Two Victories.

MADRID, october Is (P.-Fascists,
overwhelming fierce government re-
sistance, captured vital highway
railroad intersection today about Is
miles south of Madrid.
Forced back closer to the capital by
the successful insurgent thrust, gov
eminent commanders rushed truck
loads of new militia to bolster the
sagging but intact Madrid line.
Battering the capitals defense after
q day-long battle. the insurgents took
the junction between the Aranjuez
highway and the Levante Railroad
below Sesena as the devastating civil
war entered its fifteenth week.
The victory on the road between
Aranjuez and the capital forged an
other link in the Fascist chain and put
the insurgent forces Of Gen. Francisco
Franco in control Of an important
communications line for the defense
armies.
The intersection, also. Is at q point
where q bridge spans the Jarama
River, which the Fascists must cross
to reach Madrid from the south.
Although military circles said the
thrust left the insurgents in a dan
gerous position" the entire civil pop
ulation Of Ciempozuelos, about II
miles south of Madrid on the Aran-
3uez highway, was speedily removed.
Communications between Madrid
and Aranjuez which, at latest re-
ports. was still In government hands,

were routed to the east through Chin
chon.
Aranjuez was one Of two immediate
objectives OF the Fascists battling
toward Madrid from the south. The
other attempted to cut the Valencia
Railroad, farther east.
Strong lines of the Madrid peoples
army stretched from Valdemoro, II
miles south of Madrid, in human
wall for about two miles to thwart
Fascist attacks seeking to cut Aran-
juez off from Madrid. Other govern
ment militia struck back in savage
charges against the insurgents at
Sesena.
Sounds Of the battle were heard
clearly in Madrid the whole afternoon
by crowds, apparently unperturbed,
who strolled the capitals streets.
In the northwest. however, a valiant
government force withstood a Fascist
attack on Peguerinos, in the El
Escorial sector. The Madrid defense
line, although battered, was intact
after prolonged artillery duel which
began at dawn.
$50 Reported Killed.
About $50 government casualties
were counted after the battle against
almost 200 insurgents killed.
Another force Of militia encircled

seven bands. Archbishop Curley, at
tended by several members of the
clergy, rode at the head.
In sounding the call against COM
munism, the archbishop told his hear
ers it was their duty to study this
doctrine that they might understand

lenged again-and he, too, was
aSSasSinated.
And now Korekiyo Takahashi,
venerable minister of finance, has
challenged.
The differences between advo-
Yates of parliamentary rule and
military dictatorship in Japan are
perfectly sincere. That is what
makes them so impossible of re-
conciation.
The pro-militariSts believe saliva
ton of the nation rests in supreme
army control.
The parliamentarians believe,
just as sincerely, that army con-
troll means a dictatorship which
cannot but lead to awar in which
Japan will be defeated and the
empir eruined.
q Takahashi probably was select
ed as among the first victims IN
the present outbreak because OF
his position.
AS minister of finance it was
the duty of the venerable states
man-who was educated as a
"bound-boy" in the United States
to control government finance
That meant he had to oppose the
demands of the army mad navy
for larger and larger shares of the
budget.
Takahashi has argued that. there
must be limit to military eXpen-
diture-that national existence de-
ponds just as much upon financial
as military preparedness.
The minister, during the cam
paign for the general election he'd
this month, spoke repeatedly
against the military, insisting the
common people must pay the bulk
of all national expenditures and
that the man in the street would
be the first to suffer in event OF
war. .-.......-..-..-.., -
To Takahashi's eloquence was
attributed, in part, the gains MADE
bv the proletarian parties in the
election. -,
Extreme nationaGsts and the
military considered the resurgence
of left wing sentiment a cause for
immediate action. They argued
that Communism was gaining
ground and that the danger of war
with Soviet Russia, which has been
acute since 1881, demanded the
estab lishment of a militarily con-
trolled regime which would stifle
all elements which might oppose
such a war. 1920
Just as opposition to the army's
military adventure in Manchuria
caused the outbreak of May Is,
1882, so opposition to the army's
preparation for war with Soviet
Russia-which the military long
has felt to be inevitable-caused
the latest outbreak and the re-
ported assassinations.
