bare-footed Basque fisherwomen

into the sea by the dozens in a

in surprise attack on the coast

General Emilio Mola's terrified
rebels with bare hands. They seiz-
ed the Italian volunteers, hoist
ed them over their shoulders and
dumped them into the bay.

save nearly $1,O0O,000,OO0 by
side-tracking long range flood
control and army housing pro-

wrote Chairman William NJ.

Law action at this session on a

tor the Ohio and Lower MiSSlS-

Wilmington said hearings on
SSOO,0O0,000 of flood control
projects would be shelved as a re-
suit of Mr.. Roosevelt'S action.
The budget bureau yesterday
disapproved a projected $751;
100000 army housing program
recommended by the war depart
ment because it did not conform
with the presidents economy
plans. Amazed by the decision,
war department officials prepared
