 leader either as cadidate of an irl- dependent labor party or a revamp- ed New Deal-Democratic party.
 Necessary Crisis
 The accommodation was be. lleved to be regarded by many in the Lewis camp as @ necessary crisis. While monetarily arousing bitter labor conflict. they felt the schism eventually will leave the way clear for the larger ambition of creating a powerful, labor conscious national political bloc with Lewis at its head.
 Ever sensitive to delicate political changes, capital onlookers doubted that the labor schism would prove q vital factor in the 1e36 campaign.
 It was pointed out that with 6 few expectations labor leaders both in the Lewis camp and that of the Federation are supporting President Roosevelt. President William Green has pledged his personal support to Ar. Roosevelt. 4 minor result might be that labor spokegmen would be foFcsa to divide time and energies between presidential and labor pol- iticg, thus somewhat lessening their importance as . national factor.

schaumberg. Lovelock, running well within himself, was c foot De- hind the tall German with Beccali next and BoettcheT after the Italian.
 AS they swung into the 000.meter mark 1t became apparent that the final battle would be between Lovelock, Beccali and Cunningham. At that point of the race Lovelock, Q student at Guys hospital in Lon. don, was running beautifully.
 Real Race starts
 At tho start of the bell lap--400 meters from the finish--Ny, slammed into the lead as Q mighty road went Up from the crowd of o6, 900. The blond Swede was two feet back of Cunningham who was trying. to score Americas first triumph in the event since Mel Sheppard won in 1908.
 Cunningham, with . short burst of speed, stole the lead away from Ny with Lovelock, Beccali and Ed. wards tagging at his heels. Gene Venzke, the former University of Pennsylvania flyer, was last.
 Two hundred meters from home, Lovelock began the furious drive that reelected him across the line in front--once more the ruling mile runner of the world. The man who whipped Cunningham and Bon. thron in the "Inile of the century" ct Princeton, July IS, 1888 when he set . world record of 4:07.0, was out in front and could not be caught.
 British Cheered LOveIOCk
 British supporters m the stands screamed "Lovelockl Lovelockl Lovelock!" as Jack responded by speeding past Ny, Edwards, Gun. ningham and Deccali. Soon these cheers were drowned out by 6 mighty roar from the German galut- ing 0 thrilling performance.
 Becalli and Cunningham tried to match the New zealanders' finish "kick" but were too spent. Heading into the final turn, 0b,000 persons knew that Lovelock would win the classic event of c cord.shattering Olympic games.
 Lovelock finished powerfully, jogging halfway around the track again to Q thunder of applause which reached 0 smashing crescendo when the announcer quited the crowd and said: "A new world rec- ordl'
 LoveIOck Flashes Home
 One Of the mightiest cheers of the games came when Lovelock, wearing . black uniform with the white letetrs New Zealand" eTnbiazcned on the chest, flashed past Reichs- fuehrer Adolf Hitler's stand so me. ters from home. Watching the race with Hitler was King Boris of Bul- gaTia, who sat incognito to Eitler's right.
 Cunninghams famed bell lap "kick" served him in, good stead. The .Kansan climbed up to the pace slowly on the final lap and thus was able to stand off BeccalIi's ef- fort to join the thinned ranks of Olympic repeaters. s

 ing the battle to come, began on both sides. Additional reports from tho fighting sone make 1t apparent that the loyalists believe they have batetred the rebels severely ail two days of fighting. There is no doubt that they believe their position % strong that they can essay the first real big scale attack. There has been much bloody fighting in the nioun- taiyls since the rebels first took Q stand there, and offenslvos have been undertaken by both sides.

 This time, the government ias tends, according to ell reports, to strike in mass on ell three fronts, with it's strongest blow through the somosierra pass on the Durgos road. This strikes directly Into the rebel country ct it's strongest point, for the rebels are moving almost ell of their men down the Burgos road and BurgoS, 136 miles north of Madrid, Is their chief eoncentra. ton point.
 News from the south continued reasonably favorable to the govern- ment. But that it was not favorable enough was indicated by the ans Slouncement that Gen. Jose Castello. minister of war, is to take supreme charge of ali loyalists in the south.
 He has been at Valencia, on the east coast, organizing the strong re. inforcements which the government has received from that area. His work there semed to have been com. pleted.
