Throughout California under the

1t seemed plain the rebel move
ment was strong and unless the
government was able to gather
sufficient loyal troops it might be
forced out by the right wing army
rebels and the civilian Fascists.
The interior ministry issued a
broadcast tonight admitting the
cities of zaragoza and Vallabolid
were in the hands of the rebels,
but claiming the government con-
trolls the remainder Cf Spain.
The interior ministry broadcast
said hundreds of rebel officers

Echols Death Closes
Varied Pioneer
Career

Lennon Echols, 80, agent
at Butterfield stage coach
stations in Imperial Valley
long before settlement days,
died Saturday at the home
of his son, Chief of Police Guy
Echols, in Calexico.
His death closed forever one of
the richest and most colorful
sources of historical information
concerning the old stage coach
days.
The aged man was unusually ac-
tive for man of his years but
during recent weeks his health
failed rapidly. Funeral services
were conducted in Calexico Sum
day morning.
Echols was born in Cedarville,
Ark, in 1855, and came to Coyote
Wells in January, 1887, to take
charge of the Butterfield stage
station at that place. He spent
eight months at the lonesome
spot. The only white people he

Despite relief brought by cooling

ernment farm experts predicted a
serious farm relief problem still
would face the administration.
The rain probably will save a
large part of the corn crop, they
said, but wheat in states such as
the DakotaS has been virtually
ruined.
Wind and rain which brought
first relief to Council Bluffs, Iowa,
last night drove several hundred
persons to shelter from an open
air church service. They had gath
