NURSES BARRED
FOR WALKOUT

PEABODY, Mass, Sept. 20
G.N.SO.-Charged with violating
their sacred pledge, two nurses to-
day were barred from further duty
at a local hospital as the result of
their "walkout" from the case of
a 5-year-old boy recovering from
a delicate operation.
The two nurses, their identities
withheld, left the case, according
to DR.. John E. Sullivan, superin-
tendent of the j. B. Thomas Hos
pital, because they thought they
would have to wait two or three
years for their pay from an in
surance company.
Charged with violating the Flor
ence Nightingale pledge-"Con-
slider paramount the welfare of
the Patient"-the two nurses will
be brought before the hospital
trustees, DR.. Sullivan said.

BY INSURGENTS
Madrid Forces Gain
On Saragossa Front

ST. JEAN DE LUZ, France,
Sept. 20 GN.S). - Fighting
against poorly-organized Asturian
troops in the mountains of north
ern Spain, insurgent columns to-
day labored slowly towards Gijon,
but Spanish government militia
men reported progress on the Sara
gossa front.
On the sea, the insurgent cruiser
Canarias routed three loyalist de-
stroyers in an hours battle and
captured two cargo ships, one Of
them the Rey Jaime.
BOMBS MISS SHIP
In retaliation, loyal airplanes
pursued the Canarias off the Cata-
lonian coast, but their bombs
missed her.
Fierce, but indecisive fighting
went on along the eastern front,
where the insurgent pounded loyal
positions with artillery and aerial
bombs around Zuera.
The insurgents then followed up
with an attack by grenade-throw-
ing infantrymen, but they were
driven off by well-placed machine
guns with heavy losses.
CARRYING WAR CARGOES
In the south, the loyalists gained
Mulva Peak, but lost it in VIC
lent insurgent counter-attack.
Announcing that the insurgent
advance continues on the Asturias
and Leon fronts, a communique
issued at Salamanca said that 10
new hill posts we're established,
and Mt. Lacalva in Leon was
taken.
When captured by the Canarias,
it was said, the two merchant
ships were bound for loyalist ports
with cargoes of war materials,
trucks, and supplies. Both ships
were escorted to Palma, Majorca

session with the Fire Rescue
Squad.
WANTED TO WORK
Today in Gallinger Hospital she
was discovered on the floor Of her
ward, happily waxing the floor.
Just felt like working, she ex-
planned to her astonished doctor.
Why had she attempted to take
her life, after leaving a parting
note for her husband, a mechanic
in Silver Spring?
"Oh," she said, nonchalantly,
almost gaily. THAT. Well. I
was broke. I was discouraged.
I Just decided TO do it,"
She swung the waxing cloth
absently, and looked away. A shy
smile played across her face, as
if she were enjoying a huge joke
on herself.
Readily she described three days

PRAYER OFFERED

The tread of feet had scarcely
died down when the lights came
on and the Rev. Raum offered
prayer.
He then read from the twelfth
chapter of Romans wherein is
written:
vengeance is mine, I will re-
pay sayeth the Lord"
Later IN the service he revealed
how he happened to permit the
Khan to hold forth in their robes
in his church. He said:
II love the American flag. But
to me it is a sad reflection not
to have along side of it the
Christian flag. So I planned to
secure funds for one. At that
time I didn't know there was a
woman's branch of the Ku Klux
Khan. A few days later a woman
who heard me express a desire
for the Christian flag asked me
if I would object to their pre-
senting it to me. I said I'd be
delighted to receive it, not be-
cause it is the Khan flag, but
because it is the flag of Jesus
Christ"

murderous cruelty yesterday,
cringed in the prison hospital to-

Warden Clarence Larkin, Captain

Guard James Kearns we're seriously
wounded, already was the subject
Of a sweeping probe by the State
Prison Board of Directors.
LOCKED IN CELLS
While the probe was underway
Folsom's $500 convicts-hardened
two time losers"-were kept in
their cell blocks,
Occasional jeers and catcalls
echoed through the prison, indicat-
ing the seething unrest caused by
yesterdays futile break for free
dom which was the most violent
uprising in this powder key"
since the bloody Thanksgiving Day
riot in 1927 when nine convicts
and two guards were killed and "a
wounded.
District Attorney Otis D. Bah
cock declared that he would per
sonalIy prosecute the five convict
survivors.
The prison board was anxious
to determine how the plotters were
able to fashion 10 knives from
files and other tools and to make
two wooden pistols, and where
they found a 20-pound piece of
steel which was welded with
terrific force after the criminals
