MADRID, November 9-Fascist
aerial fleets spilled great bombs on
the city limit fortifications of Madrid
in four vicious waves today while
insurgent shells ripped business
streets and buildings.
Determined grinlly to open path
for the Moors, Legionnaires and Fas-
cist regulars stopped by the last-ditch
defense of the capital, five bi-motor
bombing planes and a half dozen
pursuit ships flew low over the new
line of Notifications just inside the
city limits shortly before pm.
Starting at the Toledo Bridge, the
planes bombed the western and south
ern rims of the city and then, Wheel
ing south, repeated the performance.
Blasted for Fourth Time.
1t was the fourth time the capitals
new Notifications had been blasted
within the last "a hours.
Anti-aircraft guns in Madrid ap-
parently had no effect on the raiders
Red Cross data available imme-
diately after the bombing said at
least 20 were killed and many wounded
in the newest assault. These cas-
ualties were added to 80 wounded in
morning bombardments and between
100 and 200 killed or wounded yes
terday by shells and air bombs.
Earlier, the Fascist artillery had
found a target even in the famous
Puerto Del Sol, getting its range from
both the west and the south after a
night in which hidden Fascist snipers
within the city had attacked govern
nent guards.
20 Bombs Dropped.
The 8 pm. raiders dropped nearly
20 bombs of large dimensions. Three
of the morning shells dropped into the
Gran Via, main business artery, in the
heart of the theatrical district.
Several others ripped into apart
'ment houses near the ministry of war.
The Presidential Palace was blasted
from insurgent positions east of Alcor-
con.
One shell dropped in the Puerta Del
Sol, Madrid's Times Square" making
a great hole In the pavement. An
other smashed through the Madrid
Electric Co.'S Offices on the Gran Via,
wrecking them.
The first shelling was at $40 am.
At 1920 Fascist planes again bombed
and machine-gunned the capital.
Bombers Circle City.
Two bombers, escorted by five pur-
suit planes, circled the city, apparently
directing their fire at anti-aircraft
emplacements atop the ministries and
other high buildings.
Anti-aircraft guns returned the fire,
but the attackers continued southwark
dropping six bombs on the govern
ment Notifications at the Toledo
bridge before disappearing.
Windows in the Cine de la Prensa
Building were shattered. One shell
wrecked an automobile.
Crowds of shop girls, walking along
the Gran Via and Alcala street, Mad
rids two main thoroughfares, threw
themselves on the ground when they

TEXAS VIEW OF THE ELECTION

A devout hope may be expressed that the New
Dealers will not regard the overwhelming re-elec-
ton of Mr.. Roosevelt as carte blanche 10 go ahead
with all the laundering experiments their agile
minds can devise The people uncomplaningly bore
good many things in the time OF the emergency"
that they are not now likely to regard with much
enthusiasm. For example, there has been some talk
about a revival of the unconstitutional MA, and
the President himself, when questioned about the
matter during the campaign, did not return an I'M
equivoCa answer Well it is not difficult 10 recall
that the people already had rejected the tenets OF
the NRA before it was unanimously declared by
the Supreme Court 10 be unconstitutional, and 1t Is
not very reasonable to suppose that its revival
would meet with widespread approval. And, OF
course it would still be unconstitutional if set up
by any other method than the submission and pass
age OF an enabling amendment 70 the Constitution
Some talk was also heard during the campaign
about the status of the Supreme Court, though, so
FAR as we were able 10 determine, the enemies OF
that body were strikingly silent We hope they
continue their silence; if they do not, they are
likely 10 be strongly rebuked by the people at the
first opportunity. And while we are voIcing hopes
We should like 70 express another one: that Con-
gress will resume its rightful place in the govern
mental scheme Of things. In other words, no more
delegation of its constitutional functions, no more
blank checks" to the Chief Executive, no more
abdieaton of its authority. There are grounds for
believing that Congress itself will feel this way,
for history shows that members Of the body often
are more independent during Presidents second
term than in his first Both houses have top
heavy Democratic majority, but it is no secret that
more than few Democrats in Congress are OPP
posed TO many of the things that have been done
in the name of their party during the last few
years Our government is supposed TO De system
Of checks and balances, but it hasn't always worked
that way since the beginning of the depression.
Things cannot reasonably be done the next four
years in the name Of an emergency So, az The

WHAT THE GERMANS MAY READ

Tourists in Deutschland may think she German
people look happy and contented and prosperous,
but we have serious doubts about their satisfaction
with and their enjoyment of of the things the
Nazi is putting over on them right now.
There's that matter of the sort of books they
are being allowed to read, for instance.
And we have an idea that it CRATES pretty hard
on the average German, who has been in the habit
Of reading widely Of the worlds best literature and
science that he is now being told what ne is 'al-
lowed" 10 read.
But that is just what is being done in Germany
now.
The great burning of prescribed books, in the
manner of the dark ages, must still be fresh in the
minds of the German people.
The celebration of Book Week" in Germany
last week must have been a pretty grim sort OF
Joke to great numbers of the German people, espe-
cially in view of what State Councillor Hans Johst,
president of the Reich Chamber of Literature, said
in an address at the celebration in Weimer.
Book dealers must not books as means
of private income" he said, "but in the service OF
the Third Reich. In the future will eliminate the
Iukewarm among the book dealers"-and the world
has we'll learned how the Nazi goes about that bust
ness Of elimination.
"And will not tolerate dictation Of the buy
ing public" said this literary Dictator whose fame
is said TO rest on MS socalstic favor rather than
any literary attachments. The buying public is our
people and our people want to be and shall DC con-
vinced and led. That is the essential principle OF

OUR EVERYDAY PROBLEMS NEED
9 HELP OF SCIENCE
(By BRUCE CATION

What is science good for, if its research
can't be applied to the ordinary problems
of everyday life?
Is il right for scientists to pursue abstract
knowledge at the price of neglecting those
pressing human needs which might be met
if science would give them little earnest
attention?
These questions are almost as old as sci
ence itself, and they usually make scien-
fists angry. To hunt truth for its own sake
is a lofty calling; it is disturbing to have
the multitude demanding that science be
hameSsed for the solution of sordid ma
terial problems.
The point was raised very effectively the
other day at the sessions of the American
Institute of Physics, in New York. A young
industriahst from Boston, John Ely Bur-
chard, who has been working with this new
pre-fabricated dwelling idea, bluntly told
the physicists that they would do well to
spend little less time on the mysteries of
inter-Stelar space and little more time
on such an acute social issue as the hous-
ing problem.
He quoted these words by Grosvenor
Atterbury:
I'VE are spending millions to build 200,-
inch telescopes to scan the universe and de-
termine whether it is getting measurably
smaller or intellectually greater. All of
which, in the present state of the realm,
seems brilliantly useless, especially when
you consider the millions who cannot af-
ford decent homes because none of our
great minds has ever been focused on the
basic, everyday problem Of human shell
ter"
There is point here which scientists as
class would do we'll to consider.
The housing problem is one which sci
ence can solve. A distressingly large per-
centage of our people live in dwellings
that are below the minimum requirements
for comfort and deeency. They need new
houses very badly; the country needs the
industrial boom which construction OF
those needed houses would provide.
But the houses aren't being built, be-
cause no one yet has found out how 70
build them cheaply enough that people
Wao need them can buy or rent them.

AN age in which many of our most pressing
problems need just this sort OF seientih'
attention. The era of applied science ha'
