RIO DE JANEIRO, November 28.-
Some political sources said today the
uprising in northeast Brazil and in
the capital itself, which the govern
ment crushed with loyal troops, was
but the first sharp conflict between
Socialistic and Fascist trends.
With the dual rebellions by seditious
troops in the federal district crushed
and the last of the northeastern in
surgents put to fight. government
authorities said the entire nation ap-
parently was under control.
Twelve rebels were known dead and
five of the loyal army forces wounded
after the governments artillery and
aviation smashed the abortive revolts
Yesterday at the aviation school in the
federal district and the Sd Infantry
barracks at Praia Vermelha, on the
beach beneath Sugar Loaf Mountain.
800 Held Prisoners.
The government announced 1t held
800 participants in the local uprisings
prisoners and word came from the
State of iRo Grande Do Notre, scene
of the earlier northeastern revolt, that
Gov. Raphael Fernandes resumed his
post.
The Governor notified President
Getulio Vargas, "the rebels abandoned
Natal after a great amount OF sack
ing. Means have been taken to nor
malize completely Natal and its COM
mlmications."
Planes and ships pressed a search
for steamship Santos on which the
northeast rebels were reported to have
fed Natal, and authorities took pre-
cautions under the State of seige to
maintain control. One authority,
however, said:
"Brazil's real political struggle is
between Fascism and Socialism"
First Socialist Efforts Seen.
This politician, who asked that his
name be withheld, said the abortive
uprisings Sunday in Pernambuco and
Rio Grande do Norte and yesterday in
Rio de Janeiro we're only the first
effort by the socialistic National Lib
Grating Alliance to create subverslve
outbreaks bidding for national power.
4 THE alliance, which opposes Fas-
eist trend, sees within Fascism two
main currents" this source said.
y "One is inside the government itself,
hoping for establishment OF military
dictatorship.
j. THE other Is the more theatrical
integralism, which serves the ends OF
those of Fascist thought within the
government and the military, and /:
therefore tolerated by the same admin
lstration which in July banned the
alliance throughout Brazil.
= "Brazil's army (65,00O conscrlpts
and 5000 officers) is apparently torn
between Fascist and socialistic strains.
Prestes' Name Recurs.
MANY commissioned officers
and privates incline toward socialism,
whereas the higher command is in
clined toward Fascist theology.
The rising in Pernambuco, Rio
Grande do Notre and Rio de Janeiro
was the first subversive movement in
a series rumored to be destined to
embrace all Brazil from December 18
under the leadership of Luiz Carlos
Prestes, chieftain of organized Social
ism in Brazil"
The National Liberating Alliance
itself circulated manifesto through
out the nation denying charges by the
government that the organization was
communistic.
The manifesto said the alliances
aims we're to appropriate foreign cap
italistic enterprises. respect Brazilian
national enterprises, break up the
"feudal" system Of large land hold
ings and give more land to small
farmers and workers.
