Insurgents Shift Attack.

HENDAYE, France, Aug. II R).-
Blocked in his efforts to drive eastward
toward Almaden along the main rail-
way line, Gen. Gonzalo Queipo de
Llano, insurgent commander on the
southwestern front today struck at
government defenses along the Zujar
River. north Of the railroad.
The first act of Gen. Jose Asencio,
newly placed in command Of govern
ment defenders of Almaden and the
regions rich mercury mines, was to
reinforce the troops holding Cabeza
del Buey Mountain and nearby
railway tunnel which they captured
yesterday. Cabeza del Buey is 20
miles west of Almaden.
The insurgent commander promptly
switched his main attack to the Zujar
River in attempts to seize Hermitage

Almaden through Penalsordo and
Capilla.

active front. Deadlocks continued on

Rejection Effects Feared.

LONDON, Aug. II R.-Diplomatic
quarters today feared the Spanish
insurgents had given q virtual mo-
TO the British plan for withdrawing
foreign fighters from the Spanish civil
war.
One source described the insurgent
reply to Britain's proposal for pro-
portional Withdrawals from each war
, ring side as more than so per cent
, negative" but officials withheld the
contents of Insurgent Generalissimo
Francisco Frances communication.
The reply was handed to Sir Robert
. M. Hodgson, Britain's agent at Burgos
! seat OF the insurgent regime. The
. Spanish government at Barcelona ac-
. cepted the proposal July %.
Fear Unfavorable Effects.
British and French authorities were
perturbed over probable unfavorable
effects of such an insurgent attitude on
efforts OF the two nations to achieve
working friendship pacts with Italy,
: Gen. Frances principal foreign backer.
Britain's Eastern agreement with
Premier Mussolini stipulated it should
become effective only after some set
tlement" in Spain. Italo-French nego-
tiations for similar agreement stalled
IN the preliminary stages.
Some diplomatic quarters believed a
delicate situation might be avoided
by Britain putting the best possible
construction on Gen. Frances reply
and any reservations he might make
to the withdrawal plan so that the
way would remain open for further
negotiations.
The foreign Office said the note had
not been received yet from Hodgson.
Chamberlain Sees Halifax.
Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain
conferred with Foreign Secretary Wis
count Halifax today on a variety Of
international problems. Among the
questions were Gen. Frances reply.
Some quarters maintained the inter-
national situation generally had
ceased" and that Viscount Runciman
was making considerable progress"
as unofhciai British referee in the
German Czechoslovak dispute over
minority rights.

STATES

We ministers and Christians,
often refer to the condition of Is
rael and Judah during the time of
tho prophets, jeremiah, Amos, Ez-
ekieh, Daniel and Isaiah, as days
CT a "shipwrecked state" We do
not need to go that far back now.
Our imagination need not be
stretched that far in order to I'M
derstand what chaos is.
Tic the students of history and
modern problems there is nothing
mere complexed than our present
European crisis. The newspapers
and radio has been filled with
flashes and reports from Europe.
Our Lord told us in Matt. "a 6, 7.
That we should hear of WARS and
Rumors of Wars. All these are
the beginning of sorrows" Sure
ly His coming must be very near.
Yet what preparations are you
making to meet him. He will
probably come at any moment.
Thinking of ~shipwrecked states
consider the % the stability of
the French government, (2) the
changes in the Czechoslovakia GO
vernment; 90 the unrest and per-
plexity of the British government
"a the aggressiyeness of the Hun

the purges and propaganda con-
nect,d with our own government.
Or gets a clear idea of what a
shipwrecked state actually is.
ST. Paul experienced a literal
shipwrecked but God gave him the
assurance that all would be saved.
And while many sailors were ready
to kill themselves, Paul was able
to say Except these abide in the

not use this thought ii say that

CALVIN'S
DIGEST
War viii Come

Giving in to Diotators may stave
off for a while longer a new
World War, but not for long. The
Democracies will eventually come
face to face with the necessity of
preserving the principle of the
people rule, or giving way to the
principle of one man forcing his
will on a whole nation. Twenty
years ago a world war was fought
to all intents and purposes, to set
tie the question of whether the
people or monarchies should be the
order of government. But now a
new one-man rule has come on the
scene-Dictatorships.
Our belief is that the dictators
will continue to demand more and
mere concessions until the inevi-
table "~incident" is preciptiated
which will set off a new world
%halocaust. All our country can do
is to get ready and remain ready
for any eventuality.
Duke Ellington
The New York World Telegram
last week gave a full feature space
to a story of the life and work
Of Duke Ellington. The Great
Duke is portrayed as master of
the "Hot and Sweet type of mu-
sic. "Top-flight musician and band
LEADER says the article, Duke
Ellington is also a significant
composer"
In the story is quoted a para
graph from the Greensboro IN
CO. News, white daily, which
reads: 'If we were asked to name
the ten best American composers
living or dead, we would put DUKE
Ellington on the list, not because
of the intricacies of his compost
tions, but because he has expires
sed the soul of his people better
than any other man."
"That paragraph say the wri
ter of the article, H. Allen Smith

He is all Negro, and he is glaC
that he is Negro. In Harlem
there is a society as vigorously ex.
elusive as any class group the
white people downtown ever de,

in that society. It's members ex.

over the land he always lives ir

"His work as a composer has
consistently reflected this integri-
ty he holds toward his race. He
believes that the Negro race en-
bodies certain high qualities to be

Among these is the Negroes capa-

SSCE CRETS OF AN ACTRESS"
Kay Francis penultimate
chore under her contract
with the Warner picture
making firm, is being shown this week
at the Metropolitan Theater. Miss
Francis employers have evidenced an
eagerness to wind up their business
relations with her, and it is logical,
therefore, that they should consult the
file cabinet containing time tested
plots in order to speed the liaison to
its end. Only one more product of
such consultation remains to be re-
leased before the decree becomes final.
The exhibit on the Metropolitan
screen presents familiar situation in
a familiar manner with Kay cast as
an actress who has built an excellent
reputation in the Sticks" but wants a
Broadway chance, gets it unexpect-
eddy when an architect decides to
produce her play. She first hates but
soon loves George Brent, Architect
Angel Ian Hunters business partner,
but agrees to marry her patron when
she discovers that George is married
and that Wife Gloria Dickson will not
divorce him. Mr. Hunter bows out.
Of course, and proceeds to fix things
so that the two love-bug victims can
be together.
1t has been picture material before,
and Secrets of an Actress" was not
destined to serve as its monument.
The cast does not include the cream
of Hollywood's acting talents, but tine
performers make the film particularly
unimportant through their general
lack OF interest in the proceedings.
Such absence Of enthusiasm should
not be held against the unhappy
group, however, for even the dialogue
has been heard from the screen on
many another occasion Miss Francis,
Mr.. Brent and Mr. Hunter perform
passably, but Isabel Jeans does an
entertaining comedy bit.
The film is Movie Quiz picture,
though. and the Met has its usual
bargain shorts array.
