1t is worth remarking at this
point that some observers consider
the Digest poll, based on names
taken from telephone directories
and lists of automobile owners, as
somewhat inclined to over-em-
phasize Republican strength. In
this connection it is pointed out
that although the Democrats scor-
ed a landslide in 1882, the ballots
recorded by the magazine show
that a preponderance of those
sent out have gone to voters who
supported Hoover in 1882. For
example, out of the 99,734 ballots
covered, ST,5S6 by persons who
voted for Roosevelt in 1882.

Of events for the government forces

Particularly is this true Of Malaga,

follows: First the homes of suspects
are looted and then burned to the

Scenes reminiscent Of the French

for the past two years acted as spies

evacuate French nationals from Ora
NADIA, where they are facing privation
in the two pensions in which they are
uuartered. They are fed only bread
and potatoes, since their funds are ex-
hausted and the city merchants refuse
to furnish food unless given spot cash
payment.
More Troops Needed.
Gen. Francisco Frances greatest
need as commander in chief of the
rebels is more and still more troops,
despite the fact that Junker and
Caproni transport planes, equipped
with bomb racks, are leaving Tetuan,
Spanish Morocco, at the rate OF one
every Is minutes each day en- route
m Seville with an tn 25 Moorish trOopS
or legionnaires in each plane, taking

This correspondent is able to con-

the French side of the border also,
after apparently accidental bombing
of the little village Of Biriatou by a
Spanish airplane.
Three bombs were dropped. One
struck cafe, with several apartments
on the upper floor, an hour after
crowds or tourists had departed.
Another barely missed a church.
No one was injured, but the little
town seethed with Indignation.
The plane, supporting a general
northern offensive, apparently had
intended to bomb government troops
on the Spanish side of the Bidassoa
River near Irun. First reports were
that the plane was a rebel ship.
Later accounts stated it was Loyal
ist craft.
Circles Low Over Town.
Several houses hurriedly broke out
the French tri-color to indicate to the
Spanish airman he was over French
territory. The pilot circled low over
the town, let loose his projectiles. and
turned back into Spain.
Other rebel planes destroyed the
Loyalist gasoline stores at Bilbao, after
the government force guarded them
from bombardment by sea with q
human wall of Fascist hostages.
The gasoline cache was one of the
largest fuel stocks in possession Of the
government. The other chief supply
was at Valencia, thus far untouched.
Gen. Francisco Franco, leader Of
the rebellion, reached Burgos to direct
the new offensive and conferred with
the Northern commander, Gen. Emilio
Mola, and Gen. Miguel Cabanellas,
president Of the rebel government.
Scattering rife fire met the ap-
proach Of the reinforced Fascist col
umns, from Tolosa toward San Sc
bastian and nearby Hermann.
One column was moving directly on
Irun. A western column moved to-
ward Hermann. A third formed O pro-
tecting rear guard.
