Struck at Alicante
Starts Sinking French
Vessel Is Sunk .at Denia
MADRID, June 10. (AP) A lone
Insurgent atr raider, Hying an Ital
ian - made Savola seaplane, again
bombed AHcnnte, Denia and the
British-owned port of Gandla today.
The British freighter Thorpehaven,
which was bombed three days ago
at Alicante, again was struck and
started sinking stern first.
The civilian section of Alicante,
which previously had suffered one of
the worst bombardments of the war
from a fleet of Insurgent air raiders,
again was battered. Details, how
ever were not Immediately available.
Gandla Target Again
At Gandla the "phantom" raider.
repeating his practice of striking
about midnight, destroyed the main
warehouse of the British-owned port
and sank a small Spanish coastal
schooner.
At Denia, he returned to the at
tack on the French freighter Bris
bane, and dropped two bombs aboard
the crippled ship.
The Brisbane, which had been
smoldering on the beach since In
cendiary bombs set her ablaze yes
terday, filled rapidly and settled to
the bottom.
Beven persons were killed In -the
first attack on the Brisbane, but no
new reports of casualties followed
the latest raids, which started about
10:30 last night.
Misses Sit III MR Ship
Dispatches from the coast said
that a seaplane, possibly the same
that attacked Alicante. Denln and
Gandla, swooped down on a sail
ing vessel off Javea, Just below
Denia. and dropped . two bombs,
which missed the ship.
The British cruiser Penelope was
to put into Gandla tomorrow to
Investigate the attacks there.
Officers from the United States
desroyer Claxton, which had called
at Gandla to pick up Vice-Consul
Lee Worley. were conducted on a
survey of the air raid damage by
Edwin Apfel, British manager of the
port.
Sailors from the destroyer gath
ered machine-gun bullets as souve
nirs. Worley. who had been station
ed at Valencia, had been given leave

Local Women Get Caught
In Portland Hotel Strike
The Portland hotel strike provided
unexpected excitement for the dele
gates of the Jackson County Public
Health association who attended a
conference in the up-state metropolis
this week, it was revealed today by
Mrs. Moore Hamilton, the associa
tion's director of public relations.
The delegates returned to Medford
lut night.
The strike was called suddenly
after lunch Wednesday while the
Medford women were on a tour to
Bonneville dam, Mrs. Hamilton relat
ed. They knew nothing of the strike
until they returned to the hotel and
were told by the bus driver that they
would have to carry their own lug
gage and otherwise shift for them
selves, she said, adding that a picket
line had already been established
around their hotel, the Multnomah.
Needing nourishment, the women
found the coffee shop closed, though
It was reopened yesterday, she stated.
Things were peaceful enough out
side the hotel but Inside all was con
fusion, with executives and inexperi
enced personnel, hastily drafted for
service, running around without any
apparent aim, Mrs. Hamilton said.
The new help appeared very willing
to be of assistance but had little Idea
of what to do, she related.
Elevator service was maintained by
the strike-breaking help so that the
local women did not have to climb
the stairs to their 4th floor rooms,
Mrs. Hamilton stated. Nevertheless
traveling in the elevators was a trifle
precarious as the operators either
overshot or undershot the floor levels
and one didn't know whether the lift
would shoot up through the roof or
get stuck between floors, she a&smed.
Carrying their own bags, the Med
ford women checked out of the hotel
without difficulty, Mrs. Hamilton
said. She added that the strike did
not interfere with the collection of
bills.
The delegates were Mrs. Hamilton.
Mrs. R. E. Green, Mrs. J. C. 3. Wellls.
Miss Helen Bullls, Mrs. F. Corning
Kenly and Mrs. Howard Hill.
Attending the conference for the
Jackson county health department
were Dr. C I. Drummond, Mrs.
Blanche Runels Friable, supervisor of
public health nurses, and Miss Flor
ence Welsser and Miss Helen Parish,
nurses. They did not stay at a hotel,
however, and so missed the excite
ment of the strike.

NEW YORK, June 10. (AP) The
stock market lost Its rallying urge to
day and leaders reverted to the apa
thetic shuffling which has marked
proceedings the past several weeks.
The list got off to a fairly active
and firm start, but light profit tak
ing soon halted rising inclinations
and small initial advances were can
celled or converted Into minor losses.
While there were modest gains in
evidence here and there at the close,
declines of fractions to a point or so
predominated.
Inflation was still the principal
topic of conversation In Wall street,
the belated run-up yesterday having
been attributed partly to a revival of
this theme, but trading forces were
not too enthused over this matter
and needed little urging to cash a
portion of the previous day's mark
ups. The day's turnover was around
400,000 shares. '
