Loyalists Encounter Little
Resistance From Ebro

b. the Associated Press,

b the Associated Press.
HENDAYE, France, April 29.-Gov-
ernment commanders in all sectors of
Eastern Spain declared today the in
surgents had abandoned their six
week-old offensive, but military OBJ
servers were skeptical of the sweeping
nature Of their claims.
From Teruel east to the Mediter-
ranean and from Tortosa north to the
Pyrenees insurgents were inactive
Neutral observers attributed the de-
lay, however, to transforms that swept
insurgent aviation from the sky and
begged down motorized equipment, as
much as to the strength of govern
ment lines.
The government said that from the
Pyrenees to the Ebro River at Tortosa
Its militiamen made slight advances
without encountering any real resist
ance" except in the Tremp sector,
where power plants are located.
The insurgent drive toward Castellon
and Valencia was said by government
commanders to have been broken so
badly that Gen. Jose Miaja's troops
were pressing an offensive of their
own in the Cati-Tirig sector north of
Albocacer.
Barcelona sources disputed even the
small victory insurgents reported in
the Alfambra River sector just north
east of Teruel.

championed the income tax plan,
which the House removed from the
bill, and he hasn't yet forgotten that
defeat. And, above ALL the business
privilege tax which the Senate wrote
into the measure is intended to make
up the $2000,oO0 in additional reve-
nue. the income tax was designed to
produce.
Announces Plan to Donovan.
Mr.. Palmisano disclosed his plans
to fight the business privilege tax In
conference at luncheon in the House
restaurant yesterday afternoon with
Mr.. Nichols, Maj. Daniel J. Donovan
District auditor and budget officer,
and 10 v. Morgan, assistant corpora
ton counsel, who assisted the Fiscal
Affairs Subcommittee in drafting the
revenue bill. There we're no reporters
present, and Mr. Palmisano insists the
luncheon was not prearranged.
Il just happened to walk into the
restaurant" he said, and was invited
to the table"
Naturally Mr.. Nichols, Maj. Dono-
van and Mr. Morgan were reticent
about the topics discussed at an in
formal luncheon. But Mr.. Palmi-
sano admitted the meeting was sig
niflcant-that he was outspoken in
his views about the business privilege
tax
II told them he said, that I did
not believe the business interests in
Washington we're fair to our COM
mittee. Nearly every witness who
appeared before the Fiscal Affairs
Subcommittee opposed continuation Of
the business privilege tax. Yet some
of these same people went over to
the Senate and urged adoption of .
business privilege tax to replace the
income tax And the Senate followed
their recommendation.
PERSONALLY I'm in favor of letting
the tax bill die The Commissioners
have authority to raise the real estate
tax rate to prevent budget short
age. Let them do it and come to the
Capitol next year with a definite pro-
grom of taxation for the consideration
of Congress.
Mr.. Palmisano said he believed
real estate tax rate of $l90 would
raise sufficient revenue to balance the
1889 budget if the revenue bill is not
enacted. Maj. Donovan however, said
50 rate would be necessary.
AS soon as Mr.. Dirksen returns from
Illinois Mr.. Palmisano plans to ask
the House to send the revenue bill to
conference. That probably will be
Monday or Tuesday.

opinion the Japanese now might in
