Loyalist attack on Burgos, 1870 miles
north of Madrid, army leaders said.
Troops Not Diverted
Sources close to the Loyalist high
command said the Santander troops
now approaching Burgos, would not
be diverted to help beat off the Ma
tionalist attack on Bilboa as the
insurgent high command apparently
had hoped. They indicated the
army of Gen. Uncomieta would
fight its way up to the gates of
Burgos without further serious OPP

city Of 10000 persons dating back to
1921, has been the seat of the civil
government of Gen. Francisco
Franco since the early days of the
civil war. From there, through a
provisional totalitarian government
of five departments, he has admin

troll.
Blow at Heart Of Rebellion
Sources close to the Loyalist high
command today said that a sue

blow at the very heart of Frances
military rebellion" Five National
ist army generals direct the civil
government of the 26 provinces for
the nationalist junta, headed by
Franco.
The reports said that the govern

city Of Santander had advanced to
within a few miles of the rebel
capital occupying numerous towns,
including Sargentes, on the way. At
Sargentes, midway between Santan-
der and Burgos, the Loyalists re-
ported capturing hughe supplies of
war materials, abandoned by the
retreating nationalist. Many pris-

patches said. The Nationalist were
retreating before a combined assault
OF Loyalist tanks, artillery and avia-
ton.
Crushing Attack Planned
Gen. Llano De La Uncomieta, the
government commander, marshalled
all forces for a crushing attack on
the seat Of Frances civil govern

of his army drove toward Valencia
in an effort to cut communications
between that city and Burgos. Each
new position captured by the adj
