Washington. Sept. 26.-I know lit

CHECKING TO SAVINGS

InsurGnnt Spanish troops smashed
at the gates of shell-riddled Toledo
as the wife of President Manuel
Azana, of Spain, was reported taken
under the protection of the Argentine
Embassy.
Insurgent commanders said rescue
of their besieged comrades in Toledo's
famed Alcazar, raked by gun fire and
dynamite, was only matter of hours.
President Azana was reported au-
thoritatively to have asked for poll
tical asylum if it should prove neces-
sary aboard an Argentine warship.
Rebel sources predicted the i'm
minent downfall of Madrid as insur-
gents expressed fear that government
troops in Toledo were throwing
poison food to the men, women and
children, who have been beleagured
in the Alcazar.
Rebels dispatched ten airplanes to
rain bombs on Bilbao as anarchist

held as hostages.
The Madrid government dispatched
fresh troops to the towns of Bargas,
and of Toledo to aid the fighters at

McNicholas Sends Sharp
Worded Rebuke to Father
Coughlin Saving No Ex-

Over Conditions That Do

Cincinnati, Sept. 26.-(AP)-The
Rev. Charles E. Coughlin studied in
Philadelphia today a rebuke from the
Most Rev. John T. McNicholas, of the
CINCINNATI Catholic diocese, for his
reference to President Roosevelt as
"anti-God" and his advocacy of "use
of bullets" against any "upstart die
tator"
Il remember very we'll how they
prosecuted Mohammed," said the
radio priest, as he received last night
a report of Arch Bishop McNicholas'
comment, and in which the arch
bishop said there is no excuse for
exciting in the people the spirit of
violent rebellion against conditions
which do not actually exist and may
never exist
Arch Bishop McNicholas expressed
hope that Father Coughlin would re-
tract the 'fEullets" assertion, and had
"transgressed bounds as he made the
statement attributed to him-that
President Roosevelt is "anti-God."
Father Coughlin knows the mean
ing of 'anti-God' in it's broad accepta-
ton and the definite meaning now
attached to it," he said. II am max
ing no statement for or against Presi-
dent Roosevelt, for or against the Re-
publican, Democratic or Union par
ties, but 1 am insisting as a public
moral teacher that Father Coughlin
transgressed bounds if he made the
statement attributed to him, that
President Roosevelt is anti-God."
