Madrid Truce Declined
BY Franco, Is Report
By THOMAS A. LOAYZA

MADRID, Nov. 3 G.N.SO.-Like
the biting end Of steel-tipped
quirt, the eastern wing of the in
surgent army lashed more deeply
into suburban Madrid today, the
vanguard of Gen. Francisco Fran
cos forces drawing up its line
within nine miles of Ell Puerto del
Sol.
Insurgents announced the cap
ture of Fuenlabrada, adjoining
Getafe, site of Madrid's chief air
port, eight miles south of the CAPT
tai, and Pinto, on the extreme east
of their line, 10 miles from the
heart of Madrid.
Armistice Declined
For the second time, according
to an unconfirmed Lisbon report,
Gen. Francisco Franco rejected
armistice overtures allegedly made
by President Manuel Azana, who
is in Barcelona. Franco is quoted:
"The civil war will be carried
on until every inch of territory
is under my control"
Southwest of Madrid the in
surgents claimed capture of Villa
visciosa, nine miles from the
Gate of the Sun"
All along the front from the
Sierra Guadarrama, where the
campaign against Ell Escorial con-
tinued, through Brunette, where
the loyali st S counter-attacked,
there was stubborn fighting to-
day, but the insurgent push was
centered along the double high
ways and railroads directly south
of Madrid.
The insurrectos' campaign, in
volving 10000 Moors and foreign
legionnaires, aided by artillery
and bombing planes that again
raided Madrid, was based on
Illescas and Valdemoro.
Three hundred militiamen we're
reported by the insurgents to
have been killed in an unsuc-
cessful counter-attack on Parla,
below Getafe, after which the
loyalists fell back to Getafe, aban-
don1ng Fuenlabrada.
