The Fuehrer's exposition of for

against military aggression. .Wag-
ner said:

only if peace is maintained, but
it is our grim determination that
Germany under no circum-

of exploitation by foreign mill

The international political i'm
portance of the congress was
emphasized when, in an at
tempt to win a Franco-German
rapprochement that would offset
the Franco7Soviet alliance, Hitler
is understood to have invited a
number of leading Frenchmen to
participate at Nuremberg.
Senator Pierre Laval. former pre-.
mier of France and an advocate Of
French German amity, was said to
be among those invited.
Neither the United States EN-

dozen pep speeches at these con.
crosses, but this year he is expected
to address the vast gathering only
once or twice.

BACKS RAP AT

Editorial Scores Priest
For His Political
Activity in y. S.
By FRANK GERvAsI

VATICAN CITY, Sept. 9 GN..
S).-Through its regular press
channels, the Vatican today gave
official support to the recent
editorial in the newspaper Os-
servatore Romano criticizing the
Rev. Charles E. Coughlin for his
attacks upon constituted au-
thority."
This editorial, which also
chided Bishop Michael j. Gal.
lagher of Detroit for his support
of the radio priest" led the
former to declare Osservatore is
not an official or semi-official
organ of the Vatican and that
its editorial expressions carry no
weight.
In answer to this charge by the
bishop, the Vatican's press bureau
issued the following statement:
''The note published by Os.
SerVatOre Romano represents ex.
actly the position Of the Holy
See regarding pOlemic political
activities against constituted
authorities when a person en-
gagged in such activities Is
priest"
The Vatican's position as out
lined is that no one. particularly
a priest, has the right to attack
public authorities when the in
evitable result is that respect for
authority on the part of the peo-
pie is lowered"
With this declaration, high Vati.
can authorities said, the Coughlin
case is considered closed"
Bishop Gallagher has been
warned" it was said, to restrain
Father Coughlin's fiery oratory.
1t is certain, a spokesman con.
tinued, that Bishop Gallagher
has made the Holy Sees views
known in detail to Father Cough
lin"
The. Vatican state department
is said to have expressed belief
that Father Coughlin's political
speeches will be greatly modified
when he resumes his radio broad.
casts. A spokesman said:
Father COughlin's speeches
will follow mere orthodox lines,
corresponding more closely to
the principles of social justice
Of the Catholic Church and
demonstrating greater respect
for constituted authorities"

HENDAYE, Sept. 9 '1N.S3
Insurgent forces, brushing aside
bargaining offers made by Civil
Governor Jose Ortega, today were
reported on the outskirts of San
Sebastian.
Inside that doomed resort
where, according to refugees, in
surgent hostages are being exc
cuted at the rate of 80 daily,
Ortega continued desperate. ef-
forts to save the city from the
fiery fate that reduced neighbor-
ing Irun to ashes.
Governor Ortega summoned a
meeting Of Basque NationaliStS,
Communists, and Socialists, to en-
list their aid in. rounding up an
archistS, who already have planted
gasoline and other explosives in
buildings where almost the en-
tire city can be set aflanle at
once when the insurgents enter.
Anarchists Seek to Fire City
Ortega'S offer to surrender the
city and free the hostages, said
to number 625, provided its radi-
cal defenders were spared, was
rejected by Gen. Emilio Mola
and the insurgent junta at Bur-
goS because, it was said, the sur
render bargain was not backed
by the full authority of the radi-
cal coalition in San Sebastian.
Instead, the insurgents de-
manded immediate unconditional
surrender, while the Anarchists
are determined to fight to the
end, then apply the torch to the
beautiful seaside city of 10000.
Thousands Flee in Boats
RumorS were heard on the
French side of the frontier that
San Sebastian already has been
taken, but, in the absence of any
sign of fighting or flames there,
the reports were generally dis
credited.
The insurgents have, however,
pressed past Renteria, just east of
San Sebastian, and the column
pushing UP from the south is re-
ported to have cut the railway
west of San Sebastian.
With all other avenues Of escape
