Sent into high price levels early inj the year after last season's drouth and uncertainty of the present crop, prices of family flour were quoted up to $8.50 a barrel on April 7 last. Bran, flour milling by-product used for feed, likewise has dropped cor- t respondingly, pure, or top grade bran, being quoted today at $18.00 to $18.50 a ton compared to a top during the last year’s drouth influenced market of $35.

FRANCO KNOCKS AT Insurgents Meet Little Opposi- tion in Advance on Loyal Stronghold Hendaye, Franco-Spanish Frontier, Aug. 20.— (#) — Generalissimo Fran- elsco Franco's conquering legions slogged through the mud of the Bis- cayan hill country Friday toward an apparently doomed Santander. The baldish, middle-aged insur-| #' gent chieftain himself visited his re- lentlessly advancing front, pleased by the now almost unopposed push: to- ward the Spanish government’s last city stronghold on the northern coast. In less than a week of the insur- gent offensive, Franco’s commanders reported, Santander’s outlying de- fenses in the tumbling terrain to the city’s southwest had been virtually smashed. The drive Thursday was confined to infantry attacks against the last strands of the government's defensive: Thick fog and a driving rain throughout the southern sector grounded the insurgent serial ar- mada and Franco's field guns were/ > Des Moines, lowa, Dodge City, Kans. tered on two vital highways, the Bur-| D gos and Palencia roads running north | kK. useless in the low visibility. ‘The insurgent operations were cen- toward Santander, but the advance guard deployed on either side of the highways to wipe out Santander’s dwindling forces.
