GERMANS" IN SEVILLE.
Concentrated at Rebel Stronghold,
London Hears.

LONDON, December l (P).-Au-
thoritative British circles received re-
ports today that between 1000 and
5000 Germans were concentrated at
the Spanish insurgent stronghold of
Seville.
The reports did not make clear
whether the Germans" were volun-
teers or regular soldiers.
If they are regular soldiers his
majesty's government will most
strongly deplore it," said one informed
spokesman.
He added: "His majesty's govern
ment are not making an active effort
to learn whether they are volunteers
or regulars. That is a matter for the
Spanish government to investigate"
The spokesman said the matter
might be taken up at the forthcoming
League of Nations Council session.
called at Madrids instigation follow
ing Italo-German recognition of the
Spanish insurgents.
1t was pointed out Great Britain
would not be concerned If the Ger
mans" were volunteers, since there
now are 1000 French volunteers on
the governments side at Barcelona.
Even if they are regular troops, the
spokesman added. it would not be q
matter for the European Nom Inter
vention Committee, since that body Is
concerned only with the importation
of munitions into Spain.
Responsible British sources, in re-
laying the German" reports. also said
they had heard that Soviet general,
100 Soviet officers and 20 tri-motored
Russian planes were at Malaga to help
the government forces.
British nationals, despite govern
ment warnings, are fighting on both
sides. Gen. Eoin O'Duffy with 40
volunteers from the Irish Free State
arrived at Burgos for service under
the insurgents. British volunteers
their number not accurately known
are fighting with the International

BALANCED BUDGET
IS BELIEVED NEAR
Revenue Increases Point to
Closing 7-Year Income and
Expenditure Gap.
By the Associated Press.

.
Substantial revenue increases during
the first five months of this fiscal year
today raised administration hopes
that the seven-year gap between in
come and outgo may be closed next
year.
Administration leaders have fore
cast that improving business will
boost receipts to the level of ex-
penditures if the present tax structure
is maintained.
There has been no definite state
ment, however, that the budget will
be balanced next year.
Surveying income from last July
through November 27, fiscal experts
said today that continuance of the
present uptrend, plus some reduction
in relief expenditures, would balance
receipts and spending next year.
Receipts for this period totaled ST.
623.043 900, an increase of $l71 ,98l 900
over a year ago. In the forefront of
individual tax increases were income
levies. which, at $418, 900, gained
s91, 100000.
eRucSllOIlcu dI Ills COIllcIcIlCS
late yesterday, Secretary Morgenthau
said March tax receipts would be
''very large" and "up to expectations.
This was taken to mean that revenues
for this year will reach the $5,642,-
100000 estimate, or ST, ,526, ,804, 900 over
last year.
Besides pouring more cash into
Federal Golfers, fiscal experts pointed
out that continued business upswing
will reduce the relief load
Thus far the Roosevelt administra-
tion's deficits have about matched the
sums expended for recovery and re-
lief" Through November q this years
deficit stood at 81 ,23O 900 900 and emer-
gency expenditures at 81 LAG, 900, 900.
Authoritative Treasury sources said
that reductions in expenditures next
year can be accomplished only by re-
stricting emergency activities.
Slightly higher budget estimates are
anticipated for regular" Government
activities, they explained, because ma
tional defense, social security and other
long-range programs already under
way anticipate increased outlays In
1937-38.
