Muster All Resources to

SAN SEBASTIAN'S
FALL NOW LOOMS
By UNITED PRESS

An lnclplept revolt In fortuSal
broke out today to complicate the
situation in the troubled Iberian
peninsula. Two warships in the
harbor at Lisbon rebelled but
were subdued by shore batteries.
The position of opposing forces
in Spain, the leftist Loyalists, now
supporting an avowed "red" gov
eminent, and the revolving Fascist
rebels remained unchanged today
as the new left wing government
mustered all its resources to quell
the rebel menace in tn southwest.
The decisive battle of the war
may be fought in the region of
Talavarea de la Reina, where
loyalists are holding back the reb-
els. - -.
Fall of the ancient Alcazar at
Toledo seemed imminent. Rebel
successes continued on the north
coast, and the insurgents were ex-
pected soon to encircle San Sc
bastian.

LISBON, Sept. 8. (UP).-Loy-
alist armies appeared to have the
upper hand today-at least for
the moment-on all fronts of the
Spanish civil war except the San
Sebastian sector.
Bloody fighting in the Estrema-
dura, where insurgents last week
made advances in a drive toward
Madrid from the southwest, had
quieted and the Madrid war office
said the rebels were in retreat.
Loyalists were fortifying positions
taken from the insurgents during
three days of fighting.
Historic Alcazar fortress at To-
ledo was a rubble Of blasted stone
from loyalist air and artillery
COMMANDMENT. All four towers had
been shot away and one wall was
down. Largo Caballero, head OF
the new Red government, visited
Toledo yesterday to encourage
loyalist besiegers and he express
ed satisfaction after an inspec-
ton. Within the Alcazar's cellars
are 1,700 insurgents, including
more than 800 women and chill
dren, who have been trapped there
since the war began.
The government expected COM
plete occupation of Huesca, to the
northeast, before nightfall. The
town was being won by desperate
fighting from house to house and
street to street, the war office
said.
On the northwest front rebels,
after encircling bullet-riddled San
SEBASTIAN, concentrated for an Of
fensive against the seaside resort
and its deep water port of Pasajes.
While the troops fought in the
eighth week of the war, radio sta
tions on both sides broadcast
claims and counter-claims.
Through Burgos, seat OF the IN
surgent provisional government,
Gen. Francisco Franco, supreme
rebel commander, broadcast that

HOLLYWOOD, April "a. U.P)-
Mary Pickford and Jesse Lasky
began their production partner
ship with a surprise by breaking
out Francis Lederer, mystic Czech,
as a subtler species of Maurice
Chevalier.
The dark Lederer, previously used
to decorate dramatic leads, makes
rapid-fire comedy of "One Rainy
Afternoon" a featherWeight vehi-
Gle in the French manner which
would have been right up Cheval-
ier's alley.
Lederer is less active than Chew
alier would have been less bound
ing, no grimacing, and what dane
ing he does is purely incidental .
but the pace and timing of the
play are as nearly perfect as Hol-
lywood gets.
There is also this difference -.
that Chevalier's songs had the ap-
pearance of having been inserted
in the action as an afterthought,
while Lederer's theme song and
only number becomes the picture
itself. When the play is finished,
you will remember the story but,
unfortunately, you may not re-
member the tune.
Blond Ida Lupino as the femi-
mime lead is also something to
remember. The girl has it, and
is going places with it.

and less well handled it might
have proved a dud.
Lederer is an unimportant young
actor, who follows his fearful mar
ried amour into a motion picture
theater, and by mischance is seat
ed beside Lupino, as the daughter
of a publisher, (Joseph Cawthorn) .
Carried away by the emotional
climax of the show he kisses the
girl, mistaking her for his friend,
and is at once involved in a chain

menace to French woanhood" TO
the courts, a matinee idol to the
ladies.
The president of the Purity
League" (Eily Malyon, and ad-
mirable), intervenes. Lederer is
hailed into court to defend him
self on charges of undermining
public morals, and tossed into the
brig, only to be bailed out by
Lupino, the kisSee.

FAMILY BEATS
DEPRESSION
WITH u. s. AID

BERKELEY, April 24-The story
of a family of seven-father, mother
and five children - who had been
living in chicken coop when aid
reached them in the form of re-
Mobilization loan, came to light to-
day in the records of the Resettle-
ment Administration.
The father, an unemployed meat
cutter on relizf, got tired of taking
handouts" and determined to fight
his way back to economic security by
raising chickens.
He leased two acres in the SUI
burbS. With money earned at odd
jobs, which included pick-and- -shov-
el work, he acquired lumber to build
a chicken coop.
The family moved into the chick
en- coop. This saved house rent.

Col Andrew J. Corp, Jr., presi-
