Catalog on Request Staff in The Associated Press foreign staff in Spain—ducking shellfire, sooth- ing excited soldiers, exposing them= selves to dangers of many sorts— has fought various obstacles to be first with news of the civil war. These are some of the experiences of the war correspondents, By ¢ Associated Press. LONDON, September 3.—Meet the Associated Press correspondents who are covering the war in Spain, risking their lives daily to get the story. Robert B. Parker, jr., and Elmer W. Peterson have traveled more than 5,000 miles by automobile, on foot and aboard warships. Each has been under fire several times. Peterson was the first American newspaper man to reach the scene of action. He was vacationing in San Sebastian when the revolt broke out there. He returned to France with a ref- ugee party, bringing the first detailed accolnts of events in the resort city. Then he returned to stand with rebel troops on the Guadarrama Mountain front north of Madrid. He was among the first to penetrate insurgent terri- tory. At every crossroad during a 600-mile trip a rifle was pointed at him while his credentials were examined. “The most nervous moment,” he re- lated, “was while I was accompanying a cameraman. We were stopped and guns pointed at us. I swore in English at the delay. - ['cap: “The gunbearing officer replied in perfect English, but fortunately did not take offense.” His narrowest escape, however, was on the French side of the Bidassoa River during bombardment of Irun, when stray bullets whistled overhead. He stood beside officers on the front line and interviewed Manolo Mar- garida, Irun militia chieftain, as rebels stormed the town. Now Peterson is at Burgos, seat of | the provisional rebel government. Parker, first American newspaper THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. 'A. P.

His most exciting experience: A wild, 5-mile ride with a frightened rebel chauffeur, chased by two gov- ernment war planes. Parker is at Irun now, covering the siege of that northern coastal city. In Madrid the staff has taken to eating and sleeping in improvised offices. Reporters writing dispatches duck occasionally amid the rattle- of gunfire. Chief of Bureau Alexander H. Uhl, H. E. Knoblaugh, James Oldfield, Ramon Blardoney and others of the Madrid staff have all been under fire, The Madrid streets, they report, present greater danger than the front lines, especially at night, when armed militiamen with nervous trigger fingers patrol darkened streets. An American flag gives a comfort- ing appearance to the Associated Preéss office jn Madrid. Workrooms have been moved to the rear of the build- ing—close by the ministry of war, where bombs fell last week. Somewhere in the Spanish capital is an unpaid taxi driver who agreed to transport Uhl to the Telephone Building but did not care for the rain of bullets which swept across tig street in front of his car. Orders Driver to Halt. Uhl ordered the driver to halt and seek cover. The diver let his fare out, then pulled hastily away—without bothering to collect his money. Uhl ducked into doorways and reached the telephone office by back streets. Knoblaugh, visiting historic Toledo, carried on a conversation with sev- eral rebels imprisoned in the Alcazar. Perched on the Municipal Museum wall, he shouted across a 15-yard space to the Fascists, voluntarily im- prisoned. A rebel guard shouted back: “We will never surrender.” Oldfield ran the gantlet of ma- chine guns at the foot of Leon Pass north of Madrid. Rushing from London to assist in the war coverage, he was held under arrest for six flours before- airport man to interview Rebel Comdr.

Official Munches Sausage, When I went for the first time to the foreign office, the official was munching at a very large sausage lnd being a diplomat, he drank milk | instead of the vulgar beer or coffee. | He kindly offered me a bite, which I |fast. “So did I he answered, “but it’s two hours since.” 3 At noon they have lunch, not many courses, only three or four, but the helpings aré “of unimaginable size. Even the sandwiches which you can buy in any automat for 2 kronen (less than 10 cents) weigh about a quarter of & pound each. Once lunch is over, every self-respecting Czech adjourns to the next-door cafe, where he drinks his cup of coffee with whipped cream on top and consumes one or two choc- olate cakes of an imposing size. At 4 in the afternoon the “yause” is served: Coffee with whipped cream and a few cakes. Between 7 and 8 dinner is eaten, either at home or in a restau- rant. In the former case the family adjourns to the next-door cafe to eat some more cakes and ice cream for the weaker sex and beer for father and the sons. Towards 10 or later in case the family has been to the movies, they all go home. But on the way they stop just once more in a delicatessen store to have a night A little sausage and a glass of beer. Their digestions must be good, otherwise it would be difficult to ex- plain the Czechoslovak good humor and easy temper. Abundance of Food. I asked one of my Czech friends how it was possible for people with limited incomes to find the necessary money for such food orgies. His explanation is this: “Czechoslovakia is practically self-supporting. She needs a certain amount of raw ma- terials, like cotton, copper, wool and rubber for the industry. But there is all the food we need in this coun- try for everybody, and under the Socialist regimes we have been living, there has been no possibility on the part of the industrialists or the food producers to boost prices. Our people are generally difficult to rouse, but they are stubborn and when they make up their minds to resist some- thing no force in the world can induce them to change. For instance, we have had three increases in the price of bread. The people accepted it without protesting. It was legiti- mate. But when, three years ago, the sausage manufacturers tried to 1420 K Street N.W.

Labor is cheap in this country, but so are the essentials of life. And there is no reason why they should be increased | in the future. Food, and plenty of it, belongs to Czechoslovakia's stand- | ard of living as much as bath rooms and the movies belong to the Ameri- can standard of living.

And they have been effective in their efforts.” Big Estates Divided Up. ‘The big estates which 20 years ago belonged to the Austrian and Czech nobility have been divided up | into small lots and given to the farm hands. ‘The government has organized an intelligent co-operative system, prac- tically eliminating the middle man and completely eliminating food spec- ulation. The farmer gets the right| | T®is of the i Czech general stafl admits it quite to expand its territory, it lives in fear that “something might happen"” in the near future which might force the Czechoslovaks to get entangled in & war. Since June the general staff has been warned by Paris to look out for Germany. The French transmitted to Prague detailed accounts about the preparations of the Reichswehr on the Bohemian border. Logic told the government that these were Midsummer nights’ dreams of an overexcited French general staff. But the warning had to be heeded, and since June new fortifica- tion works are being erected on the Czech-German border. When I asked a high-ranking Czech officer whether there was a real danger of a German aggression, he replied without hesi- tation: “There might be, I don't ouToF Ta) K s«s\ms' know. If the French would only leave us alone we could settle our differ- ences with the Germans in less than two months. But with the French nagging us, and forcing us to accept the alliance with Russia, there is no telling what may happen.” And this is true. Czechoslovakia could easily settle her more or less imaginary rows with the Reich—if she only had no allies. Wasted Cash and Labor. The money spent on the fortifica- German frontier, the frankly, is so much wasted cash and labor. In the event of a German at- tack, the Czech Army could not resist six weeks, despite its excellent quali- ties and the good fortifications. And since & German attack, if it took place, is considered by the general staff the result of a militaristic mad- ness, they, too, want to be mad. They have decided to abandon Prague in case of a war with the Reich and move south, conquer Hungary and establish a direct common front with Rumania, Yugoslavia and the Soviets, But, while this plan was established to show the French that the general staff was working at something, the Czech leaders are not serious con- cerned over such an eventuality; they give Germany credit for having enough common sense nol (o pncipna!e a J.

The result is that the | farmer is in a position to purchase what he needs from the merchant who | represents the industrialist. The towns people can have all the farm products they need at a price which enables them to work for lower wages than in other equally advanced coun- tries. Of course, that does not mean that | Czechoslovakia has solved or is by| way of solving the problems with‘ which every country in the world is confronted today. ‘There is much suffering in the in-, dustrial districts. The manufacturers of cloth from Bruenn and the manu- facturers of glass—two of the princi- pal Czechoslovak industries—have | been hard hit by the fact that the export markets have been practically | closed to them. Very few people with- in the country buy that famous “Bo- hemian glass.” Ninety per cent of that industry is intended for export. There are today in Czechoslovakia no less than 570,000 unemployed and some 320,000 workers who can get only sea- sonal work. The government is com- pelled to neglect public works which might be useful to its citizens, in or- | der to meet the heavy demands of the army and the air force. A substan- tial amount of the foreign exchange, which is becoming increasingly diffi- cult to obtain, has to be used for the purchase of copper nitrates and cot- ton whic hare being used in the Skoda works to manufacture the death imple- ments the Czechoslovak Army needs.

It is the repercussion of the Spanish revolution which has made the Czech soldiers jittery, They foresse that in the event of an‘ international con- flagration, which might start in Morocco or in the Mediterranean, Czechoslovakia cannot escape its con- sequences. They foresee that, much as they might desire to remain peaceful, they will inevitably be drawn in the European vortex. And the army is getting ready to make the best out of & hopeless situation.
