 Hendaye, French Spanish From tier, Oct. 29-(UP)-The loyalist de- fense of Madrid appears to be de- moralized.
 Neutral observers predict disor- ganized rout of the defense forces when the nationalists reach the suburbs within a few days.
 The prospect then is for wild fighting in the city streets, 8 mass slaughter and continuance of the civil war for months with the loyal ist government centered elsewhere.
 Madrid authorities fear an unris- ing of fascist sympathizers in the city itself when the nationalists ap- proach. Madrid teens with fascist spies. The governments most secret military plans reach the nationalists almost as soon as they are issued.
 The nationalists are winning the civil war with foreign arms and for eign men. Foreign airplanes are smashing down the loyalists with bomb and machine gun; Italian tanks, manned by Italians, are rac- ing through the loyalist lines, ir- resistibly; the Moors from Africa fFsnv,+irvod 011 paoa A

 How tO Use Arms They Have

Telegraph Editors Note: Henry T. Gorrell, United Press staff corr respondent fresh from Madrid, has arrived at the French frontier, deported by the insurgents who captured him while he was visiting the front.
 In the following dispatch, per- haps the most revealing from Madrid since the beginning of the civil war, he describes the des- peratiOn of the loyalist defense- the decentralization of the ill., equipped, iIl-fed, untrained mil- itiamen; the fact that even if they had arms they would not know how to use them.

DES MONIES, March 10.-J. N.
(Ding) Darling, cartoonist and former
Federal biological survey chief, de-
clared in an article published today
in a magazine that "cock-eyed" water
power projects will turn parts of
American streams into biological
deserts.
Darling charged: Man has laid
waste empires Of beautiful and pro-
ductive landscape, blindly rushing
ahead in a short-sighted, suicidal
policy of exploitation and in promot-
ing cock-eyed, unsound, and unneces-
sary projects labeled water power

control destroying more than he's
produced"
He said the Mississippi River Dam
at Keokuk, Iowa, has resulted IN a
barren life desert 81 miles long" and
predicted that If a proposed series Of
dams were completed the Mississippi
will be a life desert from st. Paul
to Baton Rouge"
Sees South Carolina Waste.
The conservation leader criticized
particularly the Santee-Cooper power
project in South Carolina, which he
said was among destructive projects
either promoted or under construction
with political complications.
"When nolitics gets into such a sit
uation the whole problem becomes
even more complicated and difficult
to handle" Darling asserted.
Our Government is promoting the
Santee- Cooper power project to fight
the existing power plants" he said.
Its been roughly estimated that all
the existing power plants could be
bought for one-half the money that's

highness does not mind keeping the
dictatorship of Austria in his own

StarhembeTo's argument, hon.

to place at the head OF Austria's

His 15-year-old boy is dead-victim
of an accidental hanging.
The youth, Sidney Dozier, son OF
DR.. and Mrs. Howard D. Dozier and
a student at Paul Junior High School
in Washington, was found suspended
by the corded belt of his bathrobe in
the closet of his bed room last night.
Missing at Dinner.
Mrs, Dozier told Montgomery
County police her son came home yes
terday afternoon about 4 o'clock and
went to his room to change his school
clothes.
Believing that he had gone out to
play with his chums in the neighbor-
hood, the mother did not become ap-
prehensive until their usual dinner
hour. Mrs. DoZier called several
nearby homes and then went to his
room in search of him.
Opening the door, she discovered the
boys body. Police said the cord had
been tied to the top hinge of the
closet door and thrown over the top.
The cord was wrapped around his
neck in slip knot.

rescue squad also was summoned.

that the boy had accidently hung
himself while pretending he was a
