Also, in most cases, munici- pal credit has been restored to pre- depreciation levels, the amounts of delinquent taxes have been reduced there are not the payless pay- | days for city workers that prevailed! in former years. | At the same time, the mayors have | before them the fact there still re- mains a high level of unemployment, particularly in industrial centers.

At the end of the ninth day of Madrid's siege, a Government col- umn was reported pushing northward from Aranjuez, threatening the r:ght flank of the Fascists south of Madrid. The all-powerful defense junta had | been sitting since early afternoon, | awaiting reports of the advance from Aranjuez. Fascist bombing planes were said to be concentrating on that town, 30 miles south of the capital. The war ministry, in a note issued at 4 pm., said “some enemy concen- trations have been observed on the front.” None of the usual artillery fire was heard in Madrid, however. The mass meeting, which was brok- en up by Fascist bombs, had been called for 8 a.m. at the Clorieta Atocha * | Plaza to discuss new plans for the de- | fense of Madrid. rganizers canceled the meeting at | the last minute, but hundreds gathered in the huge plaza on the south side of the capital unaware of the change in plans. Suddenly a roar of motors sounded above. Three tri-motor bombers flying |low swept across the square. Five Bombs Exploded. Before the crowds could scatter five ! bombs exploded in rapid succession. | They were believed to be 23§-potnd - | projectiles filled with ‘high cxblmlves‘ used for blasting fortifications. Bodies of men, women and children were hurled to the streets beside the carcases of mules and horses killed by explosion. Many bodies were | maimed beyond recognition. Dozens suffered shrapnel wounds. They lay moaning for help, unable to | move. ‘Those uninjured scrambled pell mell through side streets opening on the 1 plaza, One of the bombs ripped a hole in a subway and broke electric transmis- sion lines and water mains. Every window in the vicinity was shattered and several apartments were wrecked. The facade of the ornate Ministry of Public Works was wrecked.

A number of patients of the Provin- cial Hospital, two blocks away, were| thrown from their beds. Store fronts | within a quarter-mile radius were shattered. Water from broken mains mingled with blood of injured and flowed | through a wreckage of carts and au-| tomobiles parked in the plaza. A large truck was blown to bits. | Anti-aircraft guns fired at the at-| tacking planes, but without appar- ent success. | Red Cross ambulances and large | lorries were pressed into service to remove bodies. Two bombs exploded near the mili- | tary barracks. Gen.

WILLIAM HENDERSON FOR 46 YEARS JUST ONE BLOCK RELIEF QF TENANTS HELD GOAL OF U. 3. Wallace Believes Bankhead Bill to Be Given Prime Study. BY the Associated Press, COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 14.— Enlarged opportunity for the farm tenant and the sharecropper is one of the objectives of the Government, Secretary of Agriculture Wallace sald today. The secretary expressed the opinion the Bankhead bill, which provides for transfer of farm property to tenants without initial payment after the ten- ant has proved his ability, would be given prime consideration as an ad- ministration measure by Congress. Money for transactions would be pro- vided by a governmental agency on a long-time loan basis. Addressing the seventieth annual meeting of the National Grange, Sec- retary Wallace said that if a crop in- surance measure is enacted by Con- gress, it probably would be limited to wheat, but added: “I suppose if it works in wheat, it will work for other crops.” Farmers Oppose Insurance, Some farmers, he said, have object- ed to the insurance plan, expressing l,he opinion it would divert attention from a subject of greater interest- production control. The future ad- ministration program, he said, may | include both production control and | crop insurance. | Close co-operation between the Na- tional Grange and other farm organ- jzations and the Department of Agri- | culture have been very beneficial, Wallace said. He sald he hoped this | co-operation would continue and | pointed to the soil conservation sct, which he said resulted from counsel with farm leaders. This counsel will be needed very promptly if we have “ordinary weath- er conditions” during the next two years, he declared, because “extraor- | dinary things” will happen to prices of farm products. Applause greeted statement that the Secretary’s | farm organizations | should co-operate in formulating acts by which agriculture would have power equivalent to those now exercised by corporations. Equality of Powers Favored. “Farmers,” he declared. “should have a moral and legal power, just the | same as corporations.” He added, however, that it is the duty of the Federal Government to see that powers given to farmers and | their organizations are exercised just- iy and properly. The farmer, he said, must not step on the toes of other | ALL v 30 HARRIS ARMATURE CO. 9th & O N.W. NO. 1920 Will Purchase Receivers’ Certificates of District National Bank and Federal American Nat.

Referring to A. A. A, Mr. Wallace said it was not perfect, but neither were our first automobiles. It is nec- essary to bring out new models from time to time. “Right now we are drawing plans for a 1937 model, and we need the co-operation of farmers,” he asserted. A broad outlook on the tariff ques- tion is essential, Mr. Wallace declared. “I hope agriculture will never rush to Congress for tariff revision,” he said, “because it might result in a world economic upheaval.” HELD IN THREATS Virginian Accused of Menacing Roesevelt in Letters.

I, November | 14.—Teeth marks in a plece of cheese, left by a thief in a hotel bar in War- wick, will be used in evidence against Frank Rivers, 23, of River Point, R. L, arrested today on a charge of breaking and entering. Confronted by the piece of cheese containing the tooth marks, Deputy Police Chief Louis Peltier said, a plea of guilty to the charge of breaking and entering the bar of the Imperial Ho- tel here was entered by Rivers today. He was held in $1,000 bail on that charge for the grand jury. He pleaded | innocent to a charge of entering a store, Deputy Chief Peltier said that two partially consumed candy bars in the Mello store bore tooth imprints similar to those in the cheese. Peltier said a quantity of whisky and wine was stolen in the bar, and $28 and $15 | | worth of cigarettes and tobacco from the store. The thefts were committed yesterday morning.
