REVOLT IN SPAIN ISQUELLED, SAYS PRIMO DE RIVERA Putbreak Comes in Valencia; j Premier Says Further Out- i break Not Expected Madrid, Feb. 4.—(?)—Alarming re- ports of open rebellion of the Garri- son at Valencia, southeastern coast of Spain, were met by the govern- ment of Premier Primo de Rivera to- day with an official statement that | the situation there had cleared and that the military was maintaining | discipline. | To prevent recurrence of the sit- uation, the premier said, the govern- ment had established a strong dic- tatorship in the affected area. He added the government would not change the dates of the pending international expositions at Bar- celona and Seville. Nor, he said, ‘would the visit of the king and queen | of Denmark, who are en route to Spain, be deferred. Establishment of a strong dicta- | torship in the affected area referred to the sending of Lieutenant Gener- el San Jurjo to Valencia yesterday. $ ‘Jailed at Madrid San Jurjo, upon his arrival at Valencia, immediately displaced Captain General Castro Girona, and sent him by automobile under heavy guard to Madrid to be incarcerated. Numerous other arrests were made. {two and a half hour conference of Premier Primo de Rivera with King “Alfonso resulted with several | decrees being promulgated which | ‘were intended to tighten the gov-! ernment’s authority. | Qne of these provided for the es- tablishment of military court under the jurisdiction of the ministry of | interior which is expected to coor- | ‘dinate activities of the military and police in matters affecting both army | and civilians. Another decreed that the Spanish press must place one- sixteenth of its space at the disposal | of the government for semi-official Bnnouncements and propaganda; still another provided for the em- | ‘ployment of patriotic unions and so- cieties for surveillance and gathering of information of interest to the gov- ernment. Rigorous censorship of news dis- Patches destined for outside of Spain allowed only an incomplete picture of what actually happened at Valen- cla, noted for its oranges. No clear account of what was described as “open rebellion” of the Garrison there, or of the measures taken to Suppress it, could be obtained. King, Premier Confer News of the: conflict and of the walling of a general strike to take Place Monday led to the conference of the premier and King Alfonso, it ‘was said, and the sending of General Ban Jurjo to the city. ‘The prompt measures were said to have forestalled the dispatch of sev- eral regiments of infantry from Sar- agessa to Valencia, and it was said the strike called for Monday morn- ing hss. been called off. There were other reports of a strike at Alcoy and @isturbances at Murcia, though what relation these had to the Valencia movement was not clear.
