BLOOD FLOWS
IN STREETS OF
SPANISH CITIES
(Continued from psge 1)
joined the revolt and were overpow
ered.
Hendaye. France Frontier guards
said the Spanish government had
ordered a general mobilization for
defense against rebel forces led by
General Francisco Franco, who
landed his troops in southern Spain
after victories In Spanish Morocco.
fCopyritht IMS. by Assecisted Press!
Madrid, July 20 (JPi The govern
ment today announced Itself "mas
ter" of the situation in Spain after
loyal forces, using artillery and
bombing planes, had blasted rebel
lious capital garrisons into submis
sion.
However, rebel trooos, apparently
under the leadership of the rightist
General Francisco Franco, were re
ported in control of Spanish Mor
occo where an insurrection with
rightist tendencies broke out IWday.
More than 1000 army officers were
announced as under arrest by their
commands in Madrid by order of the
government. An official statement
said province after province was an
nouncing its submission to the cen
tral government.
(Sources outside Spain said con
trol over southern provinces had
been gained by rebel forces, some of
which had crossed into the peninsu
la from Spanish Morocco).
The government declared the reb
el columns in Segovia province had
been scattered by a loyal air corps
attack which drove them back to
ward Miranda with numerous losses.
In a victory announcement a gov
ernment spokesman declared
'Spanish citizens: The movement
in insurrection has been subjugated
absolutely and it is necessary not
to lose the fight.
"Everyone should return to nor
mal life. Bakers should start work
in order to provide bread for all
citizens and for all courageous sol
diers of liberty.
'We need to continue the fight
against reaction and fascism.
"The government has received
large number of adhesions from all
elements of the state. The govern
ment is master of the situation.
"Among the adhesions was that
of the first tank regiment which
has been loyal to the government
from the beginning. .
(A radio broadcast from Seville
in which the fall of the Madrid gov
emment was announced was re
ported by the exchange telegraph
correspondent at Gibraltar. He
stated the broadcast ended: "Long
live Spain! Long live the army!"
(This same correspondent report
ed the number of dead in La Linea.
near Gibraltar, was so great that
authorities were collecting the bod
ies in trucks for mass burial,
(Spanish military planes from
Africa were reported as continually
passing over Gibraltar on the way
to the interior of Spain. There was
a general rush of refugees to Gib
raltar from La Llnea because of
fears that rebel fliers would bomb
syndicalists and communists there
who were standing off rebel forces.
(In Gibraltar It was reported that
the Spanish city of Malaga was m
flames. Hundreds of refugees were
streaming in hourly to Gibraltar
with 7.000 arrived by mid-after
noon.
(The British destroyer Shamrock
was ordered to proceed at full speed
to Malaga.)
The Spanish government, sum
ming up the situation shortly after
noon, stated "except for Valladolid
and Zaragoza, the rebellion has
been broken completely or almost
completely dominated" on trie pe
ninsula. The official announcement stated
Gen. Francisco Franco, leader of
the rebellion, had fted from south
ern Spain by seaplane, apparently
leading his forces.
(By the United Press)
One of the most rigid censorships
in history prevailed ui Spain today.
The border was closed tightly and
It was Impossible to enter the coun
try by automobile, train or boat.
Telephone, telegraph and wireless
were In government hands. The only
unauthorized news allowed to reach
the outside world was broadcast
from wlrele station in the hands
of the rebels, and the authenticity
of their dispatches could not be con
firmed.

due to damage done by weather

Ouesses only can be made so far
as to tonnages on this half of the

pretty close.
Logan deliveries probably went

Former King Alfonso of Spain to
night authorized the Associated

Spanish revolt to be a movement
toward restoration of the bourbon
monarchy.
The monarchists and republicans
are fighting together against the

1936 fruit canning season here,
which started off the berry canning
were one of the few crops which
probably went a full 100 per cent
or early season estimates with
around 150 tons probably delivered
in this district. The gooseberries
were finer than expected and mil
dew which was predicted before
harvest time didn't develop, rains
which damaged other crops proving
a help to the gooseberries with con
siderable of the picking done during
tne rains.
Marshall strawberries went about
80 per cent below last year's pro.
duction, says a guess, with around
1800 tons packed. These went into
barrels and the berries were excep
tionally large although the flavor
at start of the season wasn t of the
best but this improved materially
as the season advanced.
Btterberg strawberries were prob
ably the greatest disappointment
going probably as low as 10 per
cent of the early estimate of the
crop. The total deliveries to can
neries probably didn't exceed 100
tons when there should have been
from 750 to 1000 tons based on the
early estimates of canners and
growers alike. These are essentially
a canning berry and the canned
pack of strawberries for this dis
trict Is as a result exceedingly llgnt.
Cherries were another product on
which rain took its toll. The Royal
Annas were cut down probably 50
per cent as far as No. 1 Annas were
concerned and it is doubtful if the
tonnage of the top grade berrfes
would exceed 1500 tons. Black cher
ries as far as canning is concerned
were very hard hit, rains coming
just at the wrong time and causing
frightful casualty from cracks. Quite
tonnage of blacks was canned
when the cherries hadn't reached
the riper stage needed In canning
and while a portion of this share of
the crop was also cracked a fair
tonnage was barreled. No quess has
been made as to this tonnage but
it is likely not over 25 per cent of
the tonnage was available either for
barreling or canning.
Black raspberries turned out to
be very good property. The crop was
fairly light and all of It was sold at
around 6 cents a pound. Red rasp
berries have a very light acreage in
this section at the best but they, lor
the acreage available, turned out
the heaviest tonnage had in these
ports for years.
Youngberrles on tne other nana
fell down to probably 40 per cent of
the early estimates.
Wild mountain blackberries show
ed a good yield with a good demand
for them and most of these berries
went into barrels.
The Evergreen blackberries are
expected to start about August 10
and this will also start oft the sec
ond half of the canning season for
the year as far aa fruits are con
cerned. MONSTER MAY HAYE

WHEAT PRICES
ARE HOISTED
Chicago. July 20 (IP Wheat pric
es advanced on the Chicago board
of trade today under a moderate
buying movement stimulated by
bullish weather and crop reports
from the Canadian wheat belt and
the strength at Liverpool.
At the close wheat was up l'-i-H,
July 81.03-. Corn wss off l's-'i.
July 87 H. Oats were unchanged to
.. off.
Bullish weather news from the
Canadian spring wheat territory
where no important rainfall was re
ceived over the week-end, formed
the background for the moderate
advance In wheat soon after the
opening. The relative weakness of
corn together with hedge selling,
were depressing factors in the mar
ket. Short covering by local operat
ors on the initial rally was a feature
in early trade. The market was fair
ly active throughout the session.
Cora eased under a heavy selling
movement at the opening and held
a weak undertone throughout the
session. Cool weather and scattered
showers in sections of the corn belt
were guiding factors In the decline.
Oats moved within a narrow range
in featureless trade. Rye eased in
sympathy with corn.
EXPERT ADVISES
FLAG ON PACIFIC
London (IP) A powerful voice has
been added to the campaign to save
the British shipping routes across
the Pacific.
Without specifically mentioning
the Pacific problem. Sir Alan An
derson, honorary president of the
International Chamber of Shipping,
a director of the Bark of England,
and Conservative M. P for the city
of London, warned the nation that
Britain's choice today lies between
famine and world trade and ships.
For the U.S.A. or France," he
said, "it may, or may not, be prof
itable to own and operate ships; for
us ships are life."
Sir Alan urged cooperation be
tween the United States, Great
Britain and France to restore world
prosperity.
"It is the task of the great trad
ing nations," he declared, "to feed
their people and to restore trade.
which will bring together comple
mentary needs; encourage farmers
to produce; the settlers to open new
country, and, by the same magic of
trade enable the hungry millions of
Europe to know the plenty and the
Joys of peace."

Ossett, England (IP) Add this
Item to the "consequences of the
World war:"
Because this textile town devoted
Itself to making millions of yards of
khaki during the war, it lost all its
trees, and because tt had no leafy
parks, no shady "lovers lane." the

Marshall. D.S.O., the Vicar of Os
sett.
He says he has been prodding the
Afforestation department of the
Ministry of Agriculture to plant
some trees In "the one treeless town
In Yorkshire" but he finds them
dumb. "They prefer to continue
planting trees in the Lake district,"
he observes impatiently.
Not many people could trace off
hand, he says, any connection be
tween making khaki cloth in 1917
and the local marriage rate 19 years
later, but to the inhabitant of Os
sett It la plain enougn.
The mills worked day and night,"
he states, "burning off with sul
phuric acid the cotton thread in
the shoddy which was later turned
Into khaki uniforms. That killed
every tree In the place except two
or three alckly elms, and the result
is a cheerless, romance-discouraging
place In which tne marriage
