BRITISH LION - SWITCHES TAIL - OVER BOMBING LONDON, April 7.—Great Britain today dispatched a destroyer post haste to the Spanish Insurgent Is- land of Mgilorca to demand a quick and satisfactory explanation of the double aerial attack on one of his warships, topping what British sources deemed, unprece- dented Insurgent disregard for her proud battle fleet. The destroyer Garland is seek- ing an answer for the dropping of 115 bombs at the destroyer Gallant which finally drove the Insurgents away by fire from anti-aircraft guns. If the answer is unsatisfactory, British protest will probably follow to the Spanish government. Valencia charges flatly that Ger- man ships are aiding the Insur- gent war vessels off the Spanish coast. The Gallant escaped only by zig- zagging at high speed. | At the same time, England is con- c.Cering a protest for the shelling of the British steamer Thorpehall fired on in the Bay of Biscay by Insurgent warships. - ,,— EVELYN BERG NORTHBOUND Freighter Evelyn Berg sailed from ;Agenc D. 5.
