Extending the second administra- tion of the President finds a pre- inaugural atmosphere of order in the capitol instead of “lame duck” Congress rushing through bills be- fore adjournment, a condition pre- vailing for the first time in history. Quiet prevailed as legislators ipeculated on how specifically _ the President would re-define his pro- 7ram in his inaugural address next Wednesday. Three actions closing his first term intensified the ex- pectancy. They were his warning to the courts against putting narrow construction on the Constitution, the reminder to business that budget balancing depends on re-employ- ment and the recommendation for| a sweeping re-organization of ad-| |ministrative government. 1 FOE RS BASKETBALL CONFAB | With player switcues due to take the center of the floor, basketbail team managers of the City League, REPRISALS ARE FASCISTS ANGRY Threats Made to Execute 2,000 for Mass Slay- ing of 200 {unofficial advices received here, an- gry Basque Pascists today swarmed through the streets of Pamplona and other northern Spanish towns, threatening to storm the prisons and excite 2,000 Socialist prisoners in rveprisal for the mass slaying of more than 200 Fascist hostdges who were held by the Spanish Govern- ment and killed by Loyalist sym- pathizers at Bilboa several days ago.
