SEATTLE, September 25.— Dave Beck, Teamster'’s Union leader, was called before the National Labor Re- Ilations Board today to testify at tie hearing into the Seattle Post-Intelli~ gencer news room strike over the dis- charge of two employes. Hearst interests, successful in their demand that the Pacific Coast repre- sentative for the International Broth- erhood of Teamsters appear before the board, intimated they hoped to prove that Beck furnished some of the pickets who surrounded the news- paper August 13, when the. Seattle chapter of the American Newspaper Guild called a strike. Publication of the paper was ded. Beck, plaintiff in a $250,000 libel suit against the Seattle Times for an editorial seeking to connect him with the strike and reputed picketline vio- lence, arrived at the hearing yester- day with his attorney, George F. Vanderveer. After waiting half an hour Beck was excused while Hearst counsel ex- amined more witnesses.

The awirling 10-foot wall of water roared through the insurgent en- campments on the highway between ‘Talavers de la Reina and Maqueda, carrying warriors and animals to death and destroying supplies and ammuni- tion. ‘The government forces, beyond the limits of the liquid offensive, hasterfed to consolidate their temporary victory. Socialist commanders ordered three advances into the morass held by the soaked Fascists: ‘The first moved northwest on the secondary road between Torrijos and Magqueda. Reinforced government defenders were firmly entrenched in recaptured Torrijos, six miles southeast of the strategic highway junction of Ma- queds. Ejection of the Insurgents apparently halted an advance on To- ledo in an attempt to relieve their comrades in the battered Alcazar. ‘The second Socialist attack spread westward from Quismondo, now the government’s front line, four miles west of Santa Cruez del Retamar. ‘The assault on the principal highway threatened the insurgent control of the Maqueda junction.

The first, they said, was the “terrible decision” to dynamite the Alcazar at Toledo in & vain attempt to drive self-imprisoned insurgents from the historic fortress. The assaults of government storm- ing parties on the Alcazar continued in Toledo as unofficial reports declared Col. Jose Moscards, a Fascist com- mander, was killed when a rusty ma- chine gun burst. Additional reinforcements flowed through Toledo on their way from Madrid to the Torrijos battle lines while a regiment of sappers moved into the Quismondo sector to supervise construction of strong entrenchments. Immediate building of “a double line of fortifications around Madrid” was demanded by Mundo Obrero, Communist newspaper which acknowl- edged the dire threat of an insurgent invasion had lost much of its seri- ousness. To aid in the defenses, the govern- ment confiscated the wealthy tobacco monopoly, which long has been under the control of Juan March, Spanish millionaire, who the government charged assisted in financing the PFascist rebellion.
