Defies Attack by Hitler.
Gen. Liddell's recent pronounce
ment in London comes as a fitting
epilogue in connection with these
defences.
Gen. Liddell stated: Il am quite
sure that one of the things Hitler
would like to know is, il Gibraltar
is impregnable and 1 cannot see
why we should tell him. The best
reply is, let Hitler come himself or
send his marauders and bandits to
the Rock and find out for them
selves"
There is ample storage for food
stuffs which at present are plenti-
full. There are vast quantities of
oil, gasoline and fresh water stored
in subterranean tanks. Drilled into
the heart of the Rock there are fully
equipped hospitals with operating
rooms and X-ray apparatus. The
underground "city-rock" contains
also extra power stations for gen.

heating throughout the Rock.

Gibraltar
Continued From First Page

dead, Gen. Sir Edmund Ironside
1t. Gen. Sir Give Liddell and Gen
The Viscount Gort, who assumed
command a short time ago.
Both Gems. Ironside and Liddell
did a lot for Gibraltar in many re-
spects. one prior to the commence
ment of the war. and the other since
its outbreak, and the inhabitants OF
the town owe a debt of gratitude tC
the former for having initiated ano
eventually carried out. his plans for
the construction of spacious and re-
liable shelters for the civilian pop
ulation.
Gen. Liddell worked indefatig-
ably at all hours of the day and
night at the defense works of the
fortress putting the Rock in real
state of preparedness for any pos
Sible assault or siege 1t was during
Gen. Liddell's tenure of Office that
the women and children were evacu-
uated to French North African
towns and subsequently, after the
collapse of France, were forced to
return to Gibraltar for re-evacua-
ton to Jamaica, Madeira, Tangier
and the United Kingdom.
Lord Gort has greatly improved
the accommodation and comfort of
the troops and has expedited the
tunnelling works which honeycomb
the Rock-the masterpiece of expert
tunnelers. LORD Gort can feel proud
of himself of his great achievements
at the Rock. which he has been able
to bring up to date in all its branches
and aspects.
Only 5000 in Town.
Although the town continues its
normal life and commercial activity.
Gibraltar at times wears an air Of
apparent gloom and desolate at
mosphere, which was noticed after
the evacuation of all civilian FAM
lilies in May, 1910. Today, out of the
rough normal civilian population Of
10000, there only remain about 5000
men and these have their families
scattered in the various countries
previously mentioned.
They are still here ready to face
all eventualities. but with the flrmest
belief in a British victory. They
are all prepared to shed their last
drop of blood for their mother coun-
try rather than yield an inch of
their precious Rock where they were
born and bred.
For years and years the relations
between Gibraltar authorities and
those of the neighboring Spanish
towns of Algeciras and La Linea
have been most cordial and thou
sands of Spaniards enter the fortress
daily for their work and shopping
expeditions, the latter thus alleviat-
ing the acute shortage of all kinds
of foodstuffs lacking all over Spain.
Only a few days ago the newly
appointed military governor of Al
geciras, Gen. Barron Y Ortiz, called
on the governor of Gibraltar, Vis-
count Gort, on an oficial visit
which was subsequently returned by
Gen. Gort at Algeciras.
Maintain Fine Spirits.
Notwithstanding the dullness and
boredom which can be expected
from living in a fortress SO long
under these, trying circumstances,
the splendid physique, excellent
health and character and high
spirits of the forces, which number
several thousand, is the admiration
of ALL
Regarding relaxation, the troops
spend several hours daily apart from
their regular training and exercises

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 19.-Walt

weeks because of a dispute with the
union over which men shall be laid
of due to curtailed market.
Under Government arbitrated
terms which ended the 60-day-
strike only two weeks ago, the A. r.
L.-Guild agreed the studio might
lay off men not actually needed for
current cartoon productions.
The studio listed 266 men for the
layoff. The union charged that $50
of these were strikers. that the
studio Disseminated in making UP

$50 men were shooting craps and
playing poker all day on company
time. We had no alternative. so We
closed for two weeks" Mr.. Lessing
said.
He stated the layof1 question had
been referred to DR.. John r. Steel
man, Federal labor conciliator, and
would be submitted to James r.
Dewey, regional conciliator who
arbitrated the strike. as soon as Mr..
Dewey recovers from illness.
The Guild demanded that the
studio select half of the men to be
laid off from nonstrikers and halt
from strikers. Mr.. Lessing said the
studio could not do this.
DR.. Steelman suggested that tins
union accept temporarily the stu
dos list for layoffs. The union re-
fused.

Pro-Axis Espionage,
Propaganda Nipped
In Bud by Cubans
New Police Chief Keeps
Close Check on Nozis,
Foscists ond FoIuneists
The Stars Special News Service.

The Stars Special News Service.
HAVANA, Aug. 1s.-Col. Manuel
Benitez, 30-year-old Havana police
chief, says he has nipped pro-Axis
espionage and propaganda activity
in Cuba before it had a chance to
get real foothold.
A counterespionage bureau Gre
ated by the young police chief has
reported the arrest of dozens of per-
sons on charges OF espionage, and
the seizure of many bales of pro-
Axis propaganda.
The bureau recently took $50 900
bronze and silver medals addressed
to the Spanish consulate here.
Genaro Riestra, q Spanish consul
and leader of the Spanish Falange,
Fascist party, left Cuba after he
had come under fire in Congress.
The medals had been sent here to
be sold to raise funds for the Fal-
lange activities in Cuba.
Watch Spanish Closely.
1--WE keep close tab on Nazi-Fascist
activities" said Col. Benitez. How
we'll the job is done is demonstrated
by the lack of active propaganda
now. But the Germans and Italians
are not our chief problem-it is
the Spanish Falange! Cuba has
a large Spanish colonyD But we
watch the Falange closely
Subversive activities, he said, are
under absolute control in Cuba. "
In the counterespionage bureau
ne said. there are rs men, special
lists in languages and in technical
subjects. Some are known pub
licly. We call them the shock
troops They direct the bureau
make arrests, question suspects and
appear in court. But most Of the
rs are secret agents, drawn from
the navy, army and police.
1--WE know who are the people who
think contrary to our democratic
ideals. We know what they do from
day to day.
when the bureau was set up, we
prepared TO combat large-scale espi-
onage activity. But it turned out
to be on a smaller scale than we
anticipated, and we have been that
much better equipped to keep things
under a constant watch"
Wins Support Of Congress.
Gases are brought before a special
court from which there is no ap-
peal.
Col. Benitez is getting considerable
support in Congress. where bills
have been drawn by various parties
to put more teeth in anti-espionage
legislation.
The bureau struck vigorously at
the Cuban organization of the Ger
man-American Bund and detained
eight members.
Kurt Hoffman, official of a Ger
man steamship line and attache of
the German Legation, was ordered
out of the country by the Cuban
government, and escorted by Cuban
police to Miami, whence he was
taken to New York to leave with
other Axis representatives on the
transport West Point.
An Italian consul general whose
name appeared on the United States
blacklist lost his diplomatic provi-
leges in Cuba, and the consulate was
closed
All this means. says Col. Benitez,
that Cuba is playing ball with the
United States.
Cuba he says. lis democratic.
1t is one of the firmest friends the
United States has. Where the
United States goes. there goes Cuba
also. That is how we feel about
things"
