HEARSTTOCARRY RED' BROADCAST Publisher’s Station Com- pelled to Use Communist .. Candidate’s Speeches. By tbe Associated Press. The voice of Earl Browder, Com- munist candidate for President, will be heard over a Willlam Randolph Hearst ‘radio station—much against the station’s will. Station WCAE at Pittsburgh, which previously had rejected a [Browder speech, announced today it elt compelled by law to carry three orthcoming addresses by him. Its refusal to broadcast an address ugust 28 resulted in complaints to the Federal Communications Com- mission by Willlam Z. Foster, a Com- munist leader, and the American | Civil Liberties Union. Commission Asks Explanation. ‘The commission, in turn, called on the station for an explanation. It pointed to the communications act of 1934 which requires that all can- didates for any public office be ac- corded equal opportunities to use broadcasting stations. Jn reply Station WCAE, which has | carried network broadcasts by Presi- dent Roosevelt and Gov. Landon, de- clared it would carry Browder net- 'work speeches tonight and on October 23 and October 30 because it had been advised by counsel that if it did not, it might be subject to revoca- tion of license, heavy fine and im: yrisonment of its officials. " The station's letter to the commis- | sion, as made public here by Elisha Hanson. attorney for the station. said: “But for these mandatory provisions of law and the regulation of the com- mission heretofore referred to, Station WCAE would reject the Browder pro- grams in full. | “It believes that the Communist party is, in reality, an organization bolding its charter from the Commu- | pist International at Moscow, pledged | $o obey instructions issued by that | foreign group, the purpose of which is 0 overthrow the present form of gov- ernment in the United States by force end substitute therefor a Soviet form of government. { Declared to Promote Conspiracy. “The activities of the Communist | party, in its opinion, violate the pro- visions of the Federal statutes pro hibiting seditious conspiracies to over- throw, put down or destroy the Gov- | esmmment of the United States by force.” Hanson, in making public corre- spondence between the commission and the station, also made known & letter addressed to the commission by ghe National Civic Federation. This letter accused the Communist rty of unlawful conspiracy to over- throw the government by ‘“general irike and armed uprising.” It said the Communications ~Commission ould be “derelict in your duty to sup- | [port the laws and Constitution of this country if you should attempt to force the broadcasting stations to become parties to the conspiracy.” i CIRCULATION MEN | IN FALL MEETING | Round-Table Discussion Is To-| day's Feature—S.

(Copyright, 1936, by the Associated rress * TALAVERA DE LA REINA, Spain (delayed)—by courier to Franco- Spanish border, September 21.— | Massed forces of the Spanish govern- ment failed today to halt the drive of | Gen, Francisco Franco's insurgent army, menacing Madrid along the main Maqueda highway. Split into four columns, the insur- gents expected to seize Maqueda, key point on the highway, in a matter of days, and then march down the 45 miles of excellent roadway to Madrid. | Government reinforcements con- | stantly were coming up, but the de- | fenders were unable to hold their lines against constant charges by Franco's tanks and raids by his airplanes | The government armies left fields littered with dead as they fell back on Maqueda for a desperate stand. | Madrid's air fleet countered the Franco offensive with a bombardment of Talavera, three government planes dropping 17 bombs on the city before | seven insurgent pursuit planes could take off. | ‘There were no casualties in Tala- | vera, and the pursuit planes were re- ported to have shot down one govern- ment machine. | This was the first air attack on Talavera in five days. It occurred on Saturday, only an hour before Gen. Franco arrived from Caceres to con- fer with Col. Yague. | ‘The Moorish legionnaires, in their relentless attack, occupied all terri- tory halfway between Talavera and Maqueda in their fierce assault on retreating government militiamen. The driving Insurgents occupied all territory halfway between Talavera and Maqueda in their fierce assault on retreating government militiamen. Moors, recruited in the service of the Fascists from Spanish Morocco, stalked the streets of the little village of Otero south of the main road lead- ing to the gates of the Spanish cap- ital. Advance patrols of the onrushing insurgents pushed ahead, firing on the | run and dragging machine guns with them in their haste. In a rain of steel. the retreating Socialists abandoned their positions and scattered before the organized offensive of the disci- plined, drilled foreign troops. Maqueda, objective of the imme- diate Fascist drive, was the scene of desperate efforts to co-ordinate the shattered government defenses. Gen. Jose Asensio, commander of all gov- ernment troops in Central Spain, ordered hasty entrenchments in prep- aration for a decisive battle for con- trol of the highway junction. | Capture of Maqueda would place the insurgents in a strategic position for attacks on both Madrid and Toledo. | The town is the junction point on two main roads, one leading northeast to Madrid and the othgr southeast to ‘Toledo. POLICE PROJECT BROAD NETWORK Linking of 400 Stations Is Planned in Convention Oct. 5 to 7. By the Associsied Press. Kansas City, Minneapolis and Daven- port are now a part of the first net- work authorized to operate experi- mentally,” he said. “Those first four | cities have been in communication since January. | “Recently a man was arrested in | Indianapolis for vagrancy. Detectives | had an idea he might be wanted in St. | Louis. They radio-telegraphed St. Louis a few minutes after his arrest and within two hours St. Louis detec- tives were on their way to Indianapolis to return the man to Missouri. He was wanted there for the hold-up of a St. Louis filling station and the radio description identified him." DAVENPORT, Iowa, September 21.! —Formation of & widespread network linking 400 police radio stations was described today by an official of the Associated Police Communications Officers as the next probable national offensive in the war against crime. C. J. Stanley, vice president of the | association and chief communications officer of the Davenport department, ' sald organization of the network would be undertaken at a convention here October 5. 6 and 7. bringing together police radio operators, engineers and executives. 6 Stations in Network, The nucleus of the network—six Midwestern stations—is operating ex- perimentally on frequencies allocated September 15 by the Federal Comuni- cations Commission, Stanley said, and other police stations aay join as soon as they have established facilities. Fifty-one cities, he added, have already applied for network positions. The basic network, he said, will in- clude “zone stations.” preferably large State-operated police transmitters of high power. These will broadcast in telegraphic code, and, possibly, in & national secret police code. Each zone station will relay informa- tion to all other zone stations and from these it will reach the interested police departments. “St. Louis, Indianapolis, Detroit, Help Nature to Reduce High Blood Pressure by drinking Mountain Valley Min- Water, Hot Springs, Arkansas.
