Teruel Again
Battle Scene
Hendaye, France, Feb. 71 (Rh
Fighting raged In the heart of Ter
ul today and government defender!
wont reported surrendering In amall
group as insurgent assault forces
tattled to regain full possession of
the strategic south Aragon city.
While the desperate government
garrison was being pounded Into
submission, another insurgent force
launched a new offensive against the
Aagunto highway, advancing five
miles southeast of Teruel. It appear
ed that General Francisco Franco's
army intended driving as far as pos
sible toward the Mediterranean.
. A destMctive artillery and airplane
bombardment preceded this advance.
Insurgent troops, following up the
barrage, were said to have penetrat
ed government lines and forced gov
ernment troops to retreat on both
sides of the Important road, which
, leads to the sea.
The Insurgent high command an
nounced the Insurgents were "com-
. plete masters of the road." i
Inside Teruel, the government
commander sent the insurgents a re
quest that the remainder of the war
torn city's civilian population be
evacuated.
- The Insurgent general staff coun
tered with a demand for surrender
of the entire garrison.
' Teruel was in flames in the fight
ing sons and explosions of under
ground mines reverberated through
eity.

signation last night. Chamberlain
spoke for a solid hour. I
He Insisted he had Informed the
Italian ambassador, Count Dino
Orandl. there could be no settlement
without a solution of the Spanish
problem and that any Anglo-Ital
ian agreement would be submitted
to the league of nations.
Denying that there was any
question at this stage of what the
terms of an Anglo-Italian agreement
would be, Chamberlain went on:
What we are seeking to do Is to
get general appeasement through
out Europe which will give us peace.
"The peace of Europe must de
pend on the attitude of four major
powers Germany, Italy, France and
ourselves.1

the dramatic resignation of Eden
and Chamberlain's rapid moves to
ward accord with Italy.
Chamberlain continued:
"Are we to allow these two pair of
nations to go on clamoring at one
another across the frontiers and al
lowing the feeling of the two sides
to become more embittered until at
last the barriers are broken down
and the conflict begins which many
think would mark the end of civiliz
ation? "Or can we bring them to an un
derstanding of one another's alms
and objects and to such discussion
that may lead to a final settle
ment?" "If we can bring these four na
tions into friendly discussions and
Into a settlement of their differenc
es we shall have saved the peace of
Europe for a generation. , . .
"The response made this morning
and the desire which was expressed
by the Italian government mark an
Important step toward the accom
plishment of our purpose."
Chamberlain had conferred with
Count Dino Grand!, the Italian am
bassador, before facing parliament.
Chamberlain plodded methodical
ly through his speech. Once he al
most lost his temper due to an in
terruption but restrained himself.
Chamberlain, to whom Eden ob
viously referred in this phrase, re
plied that It was "unfair of Mr.
Eden to represent that the Italian
government used threats" In seeking
a reopening of conversations look

Eden Tells Reason
For Resigning
(Continued
Previous conversations with Italy
failed, Eden said, because of the
Spanish problem.
"Almost simultaneously with the
signature of the Anglo-Italian
agreement last year," he continued,
"the first considered consignment
of Italians left for Spain. If that
was not a breach of the letter of
the understanding, it at least ran
counter to Its spirit."
"In the light of the present Inter
national circumstances," Eden de
clared, "this is the moment for Eng
land to stand firm and not plunge
into negotiations unprepared with
the full knowledge that the chief
obstacle to their success has not been
resolved."
Eden said it Is not right to depart
from the traditional diplomatic me
thod of preparing for the conversa

intimates it Is now or never."
"It has never been my conception
that the Italian forces alone should

nurse, "is only half a man. He
hasn't any teeth, he hadn't any ap
pendix, he hasn't any tonsils, and

Here's a case where It's going to be
pretty hard to keep up with the
Joneses.
We heard a fellow today express
himself against a sales tax or any
kind of a tax which would reach
himself in particular. Evidently he
didn't know that there are 63 taxes
on a $35 suit of clothes; 58 taxes on
a loaf of bread; 45 taxes on sugar
and 38 taxes on bacon, with 345
taxes on an automobile and this
particular individual has paid them
all.
Anybody nowadays who thinks he's
escaping paying some taxes should
check up. One thing about a sales
tax. It would be out in the open and
above board with everybody having
a chance to cuss when he paid same
which in Itself would make a lot of
people take more Interest In their
government and how It s managed
than they do now.

Denouncing Italy's attitude, Eden
said that after the exchange of let
ters last summer between Chamber
lain and Premier Benito Mussolini,
incidents occurred in the Mediter
ranean and "glorification by the
head of the Italian state of victories
of the Italian forces In Spain."
"It Is my submission that we can
not risk further repetition of these
experiences," he declared.
Before opening official conversa
tions with Rome, he added, "We
must make further progress with the
Spanish problem."
Withdrawal of troops from Spain
should be begun In earnest before
the opening of conversations In
Rome, he argued.

Hitler Demands
Restoration
Of Colonies
(Continued from page 1)
fllctlng sorrow" on their subjects of
Oerman blood at the risk of possi
ble conflict with his armed forces.
He informed Great Britain that
she could have peace with the Reich
by turning over colonies she gained
from Germany by World war vic
tory. He hailed Germany's new coop
eration with Austria but gave no
pledge to preserve the independence
of that former Hapsburg country In
which nazidom took sweeping
strides last week.
He sided with Insurgents In the
Spanish Civil war and with Japan
in her war against "Bolshevism In
China," and announced German
recognition of Manchoukuo, Japan's
great puppet state on the Aslatlo
mainland.
Germany, he announced, "dowri
not even dream" of rejoining th
League of Nations.
His audience, which included dip
lomatic representatives of virtually
all the world, heard him declare
that German industry Is ready for
"a rearmament program such as
has never been seen before."
"Eighteen years ago," he said, I
vowed I would fight the Versailles
Treaty and set up a people's army.
During the last five years I have
succeeded In doing both."
His failure to mention any assur
ance on the independence of Austria
or add new details of the Austrian
German understanding was a major
cause of European anxiety.
His statement that the agreement
had liquidated an "unendurable sit
uation" which was threatening to
precipitate a " grievous catastrophe1
was interpreted by some as a plain
hint to Czechoslovakia to get right
with Hitler before it is too late.
Such optimists saw a far-reaching
British, Italian, German and French
agreement Just around the corner.
Any such four power agreement,
they were convinced, would bring
colonies for Germany. Hitler plain
ly indicated In his speech that there
could be no real, permanent under,
standing with Britain and France
without colonial concessions.
Already, he explained, Germany
and Italy have similar views, and
hence are dealing with the prob
lem of civil war in Spain in the
same manner.
"Their aim," he said, "is to moke
sure there shall be a nationalist
Spain, completely independent."
Elaborating on his tar castrri
policy he declared he was "alr.u
Japanese defeat in east Asia nev r
would benefit Europe or Amrr i
but solely Bolshevist Russia."
He pictured Germany as e- ft
to build friendship with all ha
Uans except Russia.
He said he did not object if po
tential enemies found comfort in
rtrwrf H-if M rirnstfli rnfunn(v.
tlon of the army ana government
February 4 had weakened both, but
warned such enemies to consider
carefully before they put their con
clusions to a test of arms.
"Iron and steel will speak," he
shouted, if International agitation
against Germany upsets European
peace.
It -was noticed that in reiterating
his assurance that Germany, with
the Saar Basin returned, has no
territorial demands against France,
Hitler significantly added the quali
fying phrase, "in Europe."
With his statement that "then
will be an Increasing demand' for
colonies, Hitler asserted that offers
of International loans would not
suffice. He made clear that he had
no territorial designs on Spain or
eastern Asia.
Unmentloned In his address was
the question of what he would d
with respect to the church. He falle4
to announce that any conciliatory
move was In the offing.
Hitler's bitter attack on what he
called "lnternatlonla press agitation
against Germany" provoked another
question on his next moves.
He stated definitely he would not
let the next rumor campaign, such
as accompanied the army and gov
ernment reorganization, go un
answered. The National Zeltung of Essen,
organ of the nazl's number two man,
Field Marshall General Hermann
Wilhelm Goering, gave a hint.
It said an "organization" already
had been created which could "strike
with lightning rapidity" next time
a concerted wave of revolt and n.
sasslnatlon rumors from abron d
threatens to engulf the Reich. What
kind of an organization was Inten
ded was not explained.
