A—14 * CUBAN TAK AT NEAR SHOWDOH | @rmy Asks House Members | to Conference—Gomez Faces Crisis. By the Assoctated Press. HAVANA, December 17.— Army headquarters last night asked all| members of the House of Repre- sentatives to meet with military lead- &%s today as a controversy between | civil and military authorities over an army-sponsored sugar tax bill threatened to create a government crisis. Civil leaders tightened their lines to block passage of the measure, and | military leaders said they were ready | for a last-ditch fight to obtain $1,500,000 in tax money for their rural school program. The bill has passed the Senate and is before the House of Represent- atives. It provides for a tax of 9| cents a bag on all sugar produced. to be turned over to the army for es- | tablishment and maintenance of rural schools, In which army men would | teach. 1 President Miguel Mariano Gomez, | after signing the law creating the | euthority for the schools, was under- | stood to have decided the bill would | be against the interest of the gov- ernment. The Gomez supporters have | succeeded in preventing a vote, but | the bill is scheduled to be brought | up at a special session of the House tomorrow night. | Last September the army opened 700 rural schools, and 2,300 more are to be opened in 1937 Col. Fulgencio Batista, the mili- | tary strong man of Cuba, declared in | a speech in Pinar Del Rin Province | that “both fascism and communism | are unacceptable in Cuba.” | Sources close to army headquar- ters said the army is not interested in the offer of the Sugar Mill Owners’ Association of Cuba to tax the owners | voluntarily 9 cents a bag to assure the #chool program sufficient funds. | Instead. the army will insist on | passage of the bill before the House, it was understood Some observers believed the army eventually would win passage of the bill and that President Gomez would veto it. If Congress overrode his veto, | he would be in a delicate position po- | itically. HOSPITAL FALL KILLS | D. C.
