that the tavern association was
highly instrumental In placing II
tavern owners In the legislature,
OF this number six are members OF
the executive board Of the tavern
association while the balance are all
members Of the statewide group.
The report also revealed that the

Speakers
The principal speaker at the ses-
sion last evening was Mr., Goodrich
and james Sellas Of Norwich, former
president OF the state organization,

to the gathering said:
'"Thefe Is no doubt that the tavern
owners OF this state will succeed IN
securing legislation helpeful to their
business IL they follow the leadership
Of Edward J. Ryan.
Ryan single handed whipped this
strong organization into q strong,
forceful group. We have our own at
torneys TO represent our members,
we have q tidy bank balance ana
now we are on our way to get laws
which will help not only every tav-

He offered O resolution TO the meet

You may have heard the fire

The fire started IN the Fergu-

an oil range explosion due to

front.
It was hoped that the govern
ment was fleeing for the coast.
But the nationalist high command
expected q desperate house to house
resistance by militiamen, leaderless
and apparently determined despite
their frightful losses 10 resist 10 the
end.
The nationalist shock troops were
so disposed along the little front
that O spearhead Of attack could be
formed instantly at any part Of It,
to lead Q drive into the city proper
which other units would follow.
Many Reports
Even before operations started
this morning there were reports
that the first contingents were In
the outskirts.
The leftists had resisted stoutly
but vainly and the little suburban
fields which they crossed were
strewn with dead. mostly young
men, ragged, boards sprouting from
their waxen faces.
Fighting was the fiercest Of the
war. It was fiercer than any I saw
during the nine months OF the re-
cent Italo-Ethiopian war. The
Moors, particularly, were fighting
their way forward, principally with
hand grenades, and the fields were
strewn with these, many unex-
ploded.
The nationalists had taken, oc-
cupied and passed In fighting yes.
terday such key positions as the
great Carabanchel army barracks
and the Campamento radio station,
the most powerful In Spain.
Opposite Houses
They kept on TO put q strong
front line, base OF later o acks, op-
posite the first rows OF houses OF
the city proper, less than three
miles from the Puerto Del Sol
which Is the center Of the great
city.
II was terrible to listen 10 the
crescendo Of firing. Bombing air.

and hand grenade, mingled In a
pandemoniun Of noise aS n O thou
sand carpenters were hammering
for their lives In tightly closed
building.
Dispatch riders galloped from
STAFF group TO artillery post with
orders for fire. Loyalist tanks, sur.
rounded by Militiamen, could be
seen retreating slowly, stubbornly
into the city.
Thousands Of nationalist reserves
moved UP for the Anal attack. At
each point strong forces were left
TO occupy ell buildings 80 that there
could be no menace from loyalist
groups that might be left behind
the lines.

whose duty II was TO rout out any
defending nilitiamen and take over
the policing OF the city.
Thousands OF women and chill
dren. fleeing the city 10 the east,
were reported In danger by the ma.
tionalist artillery fire directed on
the Valencia road area.
Their Last stand
Loyalist forces were reported
making their last stand IN the
Campo De RetamareS, at Camp.
amento at the southwestern edge
Of the city and other points--ap-
parently fighting In individual
groups, not as an organized force.
Franco, the nationalist command
er, was reported to have thrown
four divisions, totalling $4,000 men,
into action In SIX columns, each
with an adjective In the city. All
the columns not already under way
were ready TO move instantly, II
was said.
Nationalist airplanes In groups Of
six were reported flying over the
city, bombing the last strongholds.
Foreigners took ,fuge In their
embassies and legations.
The leftist government was ex-
pected to set up an emergency re-
gime at Valencia, and perhaps la
ter at Barcelona, and there con-
tinue 10 carry on It's resistance.
II will maintain that 1t Is still

as elected by the people, and that
