Madrid Fears Reign of Terror
If LoyaIist Defenses Collapse

Life Is comparatively safe. even for
the thousands of known aristocrats
and others unsympathetic to the So
cialist government. Glass distinc-
tions are concealed. at least superb
cially. Mingling with unshaven, shah
billy dressed street crowds are occa-
sional women in stylish dress.
Few shops remain closed. Butter,
fish and some fruits are the only
prime commodities which are scarce.
Broken street lamps have been re-
moved, trafic light standards have
been repaired and the debris left by
the outbreak of the revolt four weeks
ago has been virtually cleaned up.
Armed militiamen. however, are
everywhere.
Crowds of anxious relatives besiege
the conflscated hotels serving as cas-
ualty hospitals. Long queues still wait
outside food and tobacco stores.
Railway travel is almost impossible,
except to the east coast and TO a few
points within easy reach Of the cap
ital.
Families with relatives in the prov
inces cannot communicate with them
because private use Of all telephone
and telegraph facilities has been sus-
pended indefinitely. Mail reaches
only such points as are directly con-
trolled by the Madrid government.

Coast Guardsmen in rowboats had
evacuated families from second floor

President Roosevelt's special train

Rejoined at Scranton by Gov. Earle
Of Pennsylvania and Senator Joseph F..
Guffey, Pittsburgh Democrat, both of
whom had toured the Johnstown area
with him Thursday, the President was
given a rousing welcome by throngs
packing the city's main thoroughfares
for Roosevelt day" celebration.
Representative Patrick j. Boland of
Scranton, the Democratic whip Of
the House, also met Mr.. Roosevelt at
the train.
Troops with fixed bayonets, State
and local police proved inadequate in
some instances to keep the crowd in
check in Scranton and in Wilkes
Barres public square. The automo-
biles in the Presidents party had diff

the press of people.

R.E.C. EXTENSION
| LIKELY NEXT YEAR
Demand Continues for Some
Types of Loans-67oo
of Debts Paid.
BY the Associated Press.

Extension of the Reconstruction
Corps lending power for another year
was projected today in administration
discussions, in view Of sustained de-
mand In some fields for the agency's
loans.
This authority now Is scheduled to
expire next January 81. Although no
official announcement favoring extern
sion has been made, 1t was said in
some high quarters that continuance
for at least q year probably would be
sought.
Since its creation in 1882, the giant
corporation has provided a vast credit
reservoir on which the Nations bust.
ness has drawn heavily.
81 Per Cent Paid Back.
Repayments now are flooding back
to the corporation. however. and Of
the $6,184 900, 900 loaned to business
and industry, $4,l26, 900 900. or 81 per
cent, has been returned.
But though money Is flowing back
from old loans and demands for new
ones have fallen OF sharply in the last
year, the corporation still is making
numerous advances to certain types Of
borrowers.
During June, the last month for
which figures are available. authorize
tionS included loans totaling Sc, 300, 900
to aid in reorganization or liquidation
of closed banks; $l,500,000 to mort
gage loans companies: $3,300,000 to
industrial and commercial enter
prises; $10,771 900 to finance the carry
ing and orderly marketing Of agricul-
tural commodities, and $5,300.0 to
drainage, levee. and irrigation dis
tricts.
Railroads Still Borrowing.
Among other major loans at present
are those for flood rehabilitation, min
ing operations and railroads.
Requests from railroads still are
coming in. Chairman Jesse H. Jones
Of the corporation has led the way in
promoting lower interest rates on rail-
road financing.
r. F. c. assistance has been asked
in connection with several railroad re-
organizations and in providing money
for equipment purchases.
The corporation announced recently
1t also would make loans to motor car
riers, and this may become another
important field Of lending.
In addition to its loans to business,
the corporation has an important
function in its relation with other
Government credit agencies, supplying
most of the funds used by the Com
modify Credit Corp. and the Export
Import Bank. and purchasing mort
cages insured by the Federal Housing
Administration.

GROUP TO FIGHT
NEW DEAL TAXES
St. Louis Attorney Will Head
New Division of G. O. P.
Committee.
Ey the Associated Press.

Ly the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, August 15.-Arthur NJ.
Curtis. assistant to the chairman Of
the Republican National Committee.
tonight announced the formation Of
a committee division designed. he said,
against what he termed the New
Deal party's program of ruthless tax
alton" Robert Kratky of St. Louis,
an attorney, was named to head the
new group.
The announcement. made in a
statement from the Republican Ma
tional Committee, said there would
be organizations Of men and women
in every county in the Nation Ito en-
list voters" against the Democratic
administrations taxation program.
Curtis said that the taxpayers di-
vision would be a new departure in
campaign procedure. and that it was
established in response to hundreds
Of requests for information on the
tax situation and scores of offers of
voluntary service on the part of bur-
dened taxpayers Of all parties"
The statement quoted Kratky as
saying, in part:
Spending $2l2 for every 81 COL
lected in taxes, the New Deal party
has plunged the Nation into an abyss
OF debt instead Of cutting Government
expenses rs per cent, balancing the
budget and establishing a generally
economical program as promised. -
The Presidents latest glowing
promise that taxes will not continue
to rise comes in the face of the fact
that expenditures for the fiscal year
OF 1887 have been announced at ap-
prcximately 100000, 900 more than
they were in 1886. Director of the
Budget Bell told the Ways and Means
Committee that the national debt
would reach the staggering total of
$500, 100000 by June 30, 1897. As
Gov. Landon said in his acceptance
speech, we must pay back 81 for every
dollar we borrow as the result of
interest and administration of the
debt structure. That means a Fed
eral debt nearer $4,000, ,O00, 900. And
the end Is not In sight"

ALLEGAN, Mich, August 15.-The
record Of more than a week of mo-
bilization and simulated battle in

stamped tonight with the %. K" Of
the 2nd Army's high command.
Army officers said they were pleased
at the showing Of the $4,000 Regular

past seven and one-half days.

day until early Monday.

cases Of illness and minor injuries
had been treated in hospitals at Granj
Rapids, Camp Custer and in the field
since maneuvers started. None of the
illnesses was serious, authorities said,
and most Of the patients have re-
| turned TO their regiments.
Today's operations were the most
realistic since the maneuverS started.
Clouds Of powder smoke rolled over
many sectors as machine guns, rifles
and artillery batteries cut loose with
blank ammunition.

eral headquarters Air Force, attached

Generals Sum Up.
Mai. Gen. c. E. Kilbourne of the

Of the 33d Division and Brig. Gen.
Irving Fish of the 32d Division and
their aides drew these conclusions
from the past weeks operations:
/. Mechanical units, such as the
in striking before an opposing army
can complete its mobilization and the
development Of its front lines. but the
old dependable Infantry must go
forward to hold the gains thus made.
2. The Army Signal Corps, which
laid hundreds Of miles Of stations, can
maintain communications under the
most trying conditions.
3. The motor convoy equipment and
the mechanized combat vehicles Of the
Army "can take it," even when they
must plunge through knee-deep sand
and dust Of dificult terrain.
Next weeks operations will include
further simulated battle, ending with
the arrival Of all the units at Camp
Custer, where further exercises and
demonstrations will be held.
