Loyalists Attempt To
 Break Up Rebel Lines
Would Prevent Plans for Mass Attack on Madrid
 Might Cut Line of Communication Into Toledo

way, and while reports that Maque- da actually had been captured seemed premature there would be no surprise if it were proved that the loyalists had taken it.
 Government leaders girded for the definite phase of the campaign. They said that this week should see the decision in the Tagus river val ley on the Toledo front and that the weekend might see the fate of the capital itself decided.
 But whereas a few days ago, im- mediately after the fall of Toledo, morale was low, it was high today and there was an evident feeling that the decision might be favorable to the loyalist forces.
 Well informed circles talked of new means of attack and defense still in reserve. Hints indicating that these means might prove sensa- tional-similar to the flooding of the Alberche river valley. Though this flooding failed to stop the rebels, it might prove of use later, and the talk of new means of attack and defense seemed to visualize resort to weapons that might prove as sen- sational and effective as the Alber- che flooding was supposed to have been.
 The operations in Maqueda were calculated to prevent the rebels from any early attack in force toward Aranjuez, railroad junction north east of Toledo, or toward Madrid itself, directly north.
 Their immediate aim was to make 1t impossible for the rebels to move to Toledo, along the Caseres-Tala- vero-Toledo road from the west, the geinfogcementS of men and supplies they must have for successful at- tack on Madrid.
 In their new operation, the loyal ists adopted the tactics which made 1t possible for the rebels to thrust as they did from Tolavera to To- ledo-to send fanking columns past a strong point, leaving a besieging force to reduce the strong point at leisure.
 This strategy seemed to have been used on the Maqueda sector, where it was said officially that strong loy-

''BatEl-T Tub" BurgarIy Case Revived By Return of

Brought back from Lin- coin, Nebraska, where he was released from states prison after serving part of an eight year term for burglary, Ken meth Klobedanz, 27, alleged "Bathtub Burglar" was booked at police head quarters late this morning on a burglary charge.
 Klobedanze, wanted in this city or many counts of burglary since 1881 was taken into custody Saturday in Lincoln by Detective Joseph Bend Ter on his release from prison.

Madrid, Oct. 5 --(UP)- Loyalist forces on the Toledo front embarked today on a daring attempt to break rebel lines of communication and make impossible an effective attack on Madrid.
 The operation had two purposes first to keep rebels on the north ern side of Toledo, facing the Ma drid and Aranjuez highways, so busy they will not be able to or ganize effectively their planned mass attack on Madrid; second, by col umnar activities west of Toledo to cut the insurgents dangerously long line of communication to Toledo.
 Disclosure of the loyalist plan went far to explain the apparently disconnected series of minor attacks in the last few days in the whole Toledo area.
 There were indications that the insurgents lines in the Maqueda sector on the Talavera- Madrid road northwest of Toledo might already be in serious danger.
 Government columns were oper- ating on both sides of Maqueda, the key town of the area on the high

alist forcees were at Santa Cruz de Retamar, 1-2 milees toward Madrid from Maqueda, and near Santa Olalla, 4 l-2 miles the other side of it.
 In the opening phase of their slash at the rebel communication line, the leftists met a strong rebel column on the highway and accord ing to an official war ministry com- munique checked 1t and captured three enemy trucks.
 On the east, loyalists now holding Aranjuez in great force tired of waiting for the expected rebel at- tack and marched down then high way on Toledo. They met strong rebel force in the vicinity of To- ledo. The loyalists were held, the in- surgents counter attacked and were held in turn, and the lines were left inactive.
 There was 8 similarity indecisive fight in the Navalperal sector in the mountains west of Madrid. Here the insurgents made strong bid to break through the government lines They first bombed the loyalist lines from airplanes, then shelled them with artillery, next sent 8 strong cavalry force to the attack and fi- nally sent LegionnaireA and Moor ish infantry over the top. But the rebels found the loyaliSt positions strongly entrenched = as they will find all others in the Guadarramas after two months of fortifying- -and failed completely, it is understood, to advance. The loyalists then coun- ter attacked and asserted that they penetrated the lines from which the rightists attacked them.
 So far none of the operations on the Toledo or other fronts have as- sumed any real size or moment.
 Determined to remove @ source of danger at home, the government to- day spread throughout the capital cast net of counter-spies to hunt out fascist sympathizers such as those who have been captured in the act, it is asserted, of planning uprisings.
 As part of the network, S5,00C house porters were inducted into iIa- telligence service charged with -e- porting unusual activities of any tenant. Tenants themselves were urged to sos?.; committees !.: spa<t- ment houses ard IT. residential streets so that every man and woman and Madrid should come under surveillance of known loyal ists.
 The immediate effect was to make it dangerous to ask questions oi strangers about any feature of the defense of the city or government plans for attack. Questioners al once came under suspicion and were ] lreported to headquarters.

GRACE OPTIMISTIC
ON STEEL OUTLOOK
Bethlehem Chief Stresses
Diversity of Current
Heavy Demand.
sy the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, May Eugene G.
Grace, president of Bethlehem Steel
Corp, following the directors meeting
yesterday said demand for heavy steel
has been gradually improving and that
diversified buying Is coming from all
sources"
His comments on the steel industry
which we're generally favorable. were
accompanied by the report of a net
profit by the corporation for the March
quarter, the first for the like period
since 1881.
Net income for the three months
ended March 81 totaled S603 ,065, CON-
pared with s2,396,O26 in the previous
quarter and deficit of s6o7 ,2e8 for the
f1rst quarter year ago.
Periods Not Comparable.
Commenting on the shrinkage in
earnings between the first quarter Of
1886 and the preceding, Grace pointed
out that these two periods were not
comparable owing to year-end adjust
ments at the close of last year. Higher
costs and lower shipments owing to the
floods were also factors, he said.
Directors declared a dividend oi
SITS share on the per cent cumu-
lative preferred stock and initial pay.
merit of Is cents on the per cent
cumulative preferred (s2O par). both
payable on July to stockholders OF
record June 5.
The cost of repairing March flood
damage totaled about 81, ,150, 900, it wa,
announced, and will be charged to re.
serve for contingencies provided in
prior years.
Auto Makers Cheerful.
The Bethlehem president said all the
automobile makers he had talked with
were very optimistic.
There is quite buying movement
on for May and June needs of the
automobile industry" he added.
He said he had every reason to be.
lieve that Bethlehem can average s.
per cent of capacity in the second
quarter. compared with 45.3 per cent
averaged in the first quarter.
We see a number of miscellaneou;
activities proceeding to a greater extent
than last year-such as apartment
houses and bridge projects" he said
Asked about the outlook Tor con-
struction. he said. confidence in the
investment of private capital is needed
TO restore the building industry"
