 Government ls Jubilant
 Jubilantly, the government an- nounced that its newly iilspirited militiamen had arrled back the na- tionalists from the vitally import ant east coast railroad and had freed the great southern highway which the nationalists had cut.
 General staff orders were sent to the front to continue offensive ace ton in all sectors but commanders were warned that their tactics must be cooly p1anned because the na- tionalists now were back on their main lines and stronger resistance could be expected.
 Confident, however, that it can retain the newly rewon territory along the southern highway and the railroad = which also runs south- ward to 8 point below Aranjuez = the government resumed train serv- ice to the east coast this morning.
 Survey Rebel Positions
 Loyalist airplanes surveyed the nationalist positions at all these places and reported them strongly held. Nevertheless, government leaders, in their orders to men at the front, seemed to be sure that they now had sufficient strength to move forward successfully. They always have insisted that the na- tionalists were advancing their lines too rapidly for safety, because of their inferior numbers, and that 1t was only the superior foreign eQuip- ment that permitted them to ad- vance at all.
 If the present drive goes well, gov- ernment leaders intend to move against the nationalists in the Cha pineria sector, directly west of Ma drid, on the secondary road between San Martin De valdeiglesias and the Madrid Toledo highway.
 Russia Sends Notes
 London, Oct. S0.--(UP)-Two Russian notes, distributed to mem- bers of the committee on non-in- tervention in the Spanish Civil war, denounced today as "concoc- tions and inventions" Italian and German charges that Russia had violated the neutrality pact.
 The notes, dated Wednesday and handed to the committee by Ivan Maisky, Russian ambassador, denied that Russian officers and tech- nicians had been sent to Spain.
 "The sole plausible reason for the Italian complaint against the So- viet government can be found in the Italian representatives, desire to counteract the devastating effect on public opinion of charges leveled against the Italian government, i" said one note.
 The German accusations were called "hasty, crude, ignorant in- ventions."
 His One Admission
 Maisky admitted only "the gener- ous support given by the people of the Soviet Union to the people of Spain which found expression in "a general response to B subscription for funds for purchase of food and clothing to send to women and children of Spain"
 Referring to the ships Neva and Kuban, which it was charged took munitions to Spain, the Soviet note said they carried only food sup plies.
 ''No other goods, especially of a military nature, were carried on the above-named ships" the note said. "No passengers, whether pilots or others, were carried on landed.
 "The departure of these ships from Odessa and their arrival at Spanish ports had been widely known. Their loading in Soviet ports and their unloading in Span- ish ports was witnessed by thou sands of people, and in Spanish jorts they were anchored amidst foreign men-of-war, among them German and Italian, and the un- loading fo their cargoes proceeded in broad daylight"
