The evacuation of beleaguered

simultaneously American diplo-

and consular offices at Barcelona
denied that American plants have
suffered in Spain's civil war.

clared that normal" train sci1ed-

Department was informed.
Eric c. Wendelin, in charge Of
the American embassy, said that
Americans who have already left
voluntarily by train for Valencia
and Alicante on the east coast
are believed to have arrived safely.
1t was apparent that the Ameri-
cans would travel at their own
risk. as the government stated it
would not be possible at present
to organize special trains because
of the necessity Of giving prefer
ence to transportation of troops,
war material and foodStuffs.
1t was probable that the evacua-
tion would be carried out to
Alicante, as news reports today
told Of a revolt Of government
troops in the barracks at Valencia
with the government forces swing
ing over to the insurgent cause.
United States Property Safe
Widespread reports of seizure of
American property were denied by
Wendelin and by Consul Lynn w.
Franklin at Barcelona.
Franklin. in dispatch to the
department, stated that he has
been successful to date in protect

the department that reports the
