Premier Azana Says Situation
Is Under Control; San
! Juro Leads Uprising

MADRID, Aug. 10 Q.N.S.)
The smouldering desire for a
return to monarchical rule left
in the wake Of former King
Alfonso s abdication flared to-
day into open revolt against
the Spanish republic.
Sixteen hours after royalist
sympathizers in Madrid and
Seville launched their move
ment amid a hail of rifle and
machine-gun fire, which re-
suited in at least seven deaths
and scores of injuries, Premier
Manuel Azana informed his
cabinet that the situation was
under control.
Reports from Seville and sur
rounding districts, however, indi-
Gated that the monarchiStS, under
the leadership of Gen. Jose San
Jurjo, commander of the civil
guards, were in possession Of the
area.
General San Jurjo was reported
In full control of AndaluSia.
The government concentrated
10000 men at Cordova and other
points. Bombing planes we're sent
to Andujar. and a combined air
and land attack on San Jurjo's
forces was planned at daybreak
tomorrow.
Martial Law ir Force
Martial law was enforced
throughout the country as heavy
detachments of infantry and cav
airy were rushed to Seville, chief
scene of the disturbance.
Labor organizations throughout
the country united in determina-
tion to fight the monarchist
rebels to the bitter end, declaring
themselves ready to take up
arms against the insurrectionists.
There were grave fears that the
ZealouSnesS of the workers in de-
fense of the socialist republic
might result in serious clashes.
Suspend Newspapers
Reports received here declared
a group of rebels were marching
on Madrid from Alcala De
Henares. A government official
declared they had been turned
back by detachment of federal
cavalry.

cabinet. brought every possible
influence to bear upon the presi-
dent to enable Hitler's appoint
ment as chancellor invoking the
aid of the chief executives son,
Oscar Won Hindenburg.
Won Papen, it was learned, is
willing personally to give his job
to Hitler, but the aged president
remained adj mant.
Asks Cabinet to Stay
Won Hindenburg also asked Won
Papen not to permit the cabinet
to resign in a body or commit
"any other rash act," at least
until after tomorrow'S celebration
of constitution day.
Such postponement of any pre-
cipitate measures, the president
pointed out, would prevent the
Nazis from hailing Constitution
Day as a day which marked the
end of the Republican govern

Unfit for High Office
LANCASTER

BERLIN. Aug. 10 0.N.SO.
Adolf Hitler. former house-painter
and street cleaner and now leader
of 100000 militant Nazis,
clashed head-on with 85-year-old
President Paul Won Hindenburg
today in his demand to be named
chancellor of Germany.
The aged president, Interna-
tional News Service learned, flat
ly refused to appoint the Austrian
born Nazi chieftain as chancellor
He said:
II cannot possibly appoint
Hitler as chancellor or vice
chancellor. He is just good
enough for pOStmaSter-general."
With thousands of Nazi storm
troops concentrated around Ber-
lin, determined to seize the gov
eminent by force unless Hitler
is named chancellor, Franz Won
Papen, leader of the incumbent
government, planned to visit Won
Hindenburg again this afternoon,
conveying to him the cabinets
conviction that Hitler's appoint
ment is the only solution to the
present crisis.

HOOVER At 50
BUSY At DESK

President Hoover observed his
58th birthday today by putting
the finishing touches on what
will constitute perhaps the most
important document of his public
career-his speech, due for deliv-
cry tomorrow night, accepting re-
nomination from the Republican
party.
Only a few isolated incidents
around the White House gave any
indication that the Chief Execu-
tive had passed another mile
stone. He was at his desk as
usual, prepared to put in a full
day, and nothing savoring of a
birthday party had been ar
ranged.
True to her custom of years
standing, however, Mrs. Hoover
had supervised preparation of
birthday cake, which will grace
the table at tonight's dinner. AS
the Hoover family of adult age
does not go in for gifts on the
occasions of natal anniversaries,
the President had nothing of this
sort to remind him of the day.
Congratulatory messages poured
in from all over the world.
One memento was a 30-page
birthday card bearing 10000 sig
natures.

his account of the shooting Of

he is standing trial on a charge
Of murder.
Dog-tired from a long, hard

"A pistol was on the bed by

In talk before Lancaster
dropped asleep, Lancaster said,
Clarke and he had discussed
finances. Clarke admitted he had
exaggerated his writing ability
and expressed doubt if he could
go through with the book of Mrs.

admitted he lied to "Chubbie"
about his age, saying he was 81

the quiet, blue-eyed Communist
leader revealed his political self
a figure Of disturbing contrasts.
Neither Socialism nor Democracy
exists today as living force, he
declared. Each has lost the once
firm faith of its adherents.
Socialism, Foster said, has
been captured bodily by industrial
leaders, now advancing theories
half Socialist, half-Fascist.
Democracy is being attacked
from without by Communism,
while its own leaders bore from
within, seeking to undermine its
walls and capture the citadel in the
name of Fascism.
The wave of contempt and ridi-
cule directed at congress in recent
months is a deliberate attempt to
destroy the confidence of the
American people in representative
government, clearing the way for a
dictatorship"
Foster disagrees with many nom
Communists that the police depart
ments' policy of suppression is
helping the Communist cause.
1T changes the direction, that's
ALL he said. Makes the Com
munists more determined. But ii
doesn't help us, nor hurt uS."
