GOVERNMENT ATTACK ON WIDESPREAD FRONT France and Britain May Request Socialists to Withdraw Ap- peal to League. BACKGROUND— Spanish Fascists rising against popularly elected Leftist govern- ment in July have battled way to Madrid itself after conquering northern, western and southern Spain. Loyalist lines around Madrid have barred insurgents from holding substantial positions within the capital itself. Regime of Gen. Francisco Franco recognized by Germany and Italy before he has overcome the legal government. Socialist government sent protest yesterday to League of Nations asking consideration under Article 11 of the Covenant. BY the Associated Press. SAINT JEAN DE LUZ, Franco- Spanish Border, November 28.—Severe fighting on the Northern Spanish | front was reported today, with govern- Mment armies claiming successes that endangered three insurgent strong- holds on the Bay of Biscay sector. Fascist sources denied the Socialist advances, but confirmed reports that & heavy battle was raging as a result | of a government drive against in- surgent positions at Grado, Vitoria and Tolosa. The insurgent radio station at Se- ville broadcast a report that Fascist planes dropped hundreds of bombs on the Biscayne coastal city of Sante ander, causing heavy damage. Concerted Government Attack. ‘The reports indicated a concerted | government attack all along the far- flung northern lines. At Gijon it was said the Socialist militia was pressing on Grando—Col. Arranda’s insurgent headquarters west of Oviedo—after taking Valdupo un- der a barrage of hand grenades. French reports from Gijon said dynamite-throwing Asturian miners cleared the way for an infantry charge on Valdupo. Militiamen said they cleaned cut the town of bayonet point, inflicting heavy losses on the insurgents. The Fascists, these reports said, were in precipitate retreat toward Arranda’s hadquarters. ‘The important Valdupo bridgehead was destroyed, the French reports said, cutting off communications be- tween Col. Arranda and Oviedo, where the insurgent garrison was be- lieved too small to withstand a heavy attack. The Seville radio said the Socialist militiamen were repulsed in the fight- ing around Oviedo. No Claim of Victory. At Madrid the government reported | enly that heavy fighting was in pro- gress around the northern mining city and that there was no government claim of victory. The offensive against Vitoria, stra- tegic insurgent junction point in the eastern sector, was reported launched from Orunda where troops from San- tander and Bilbao have been concen- trating. The government reports declared the combined armies were advancing with little opposition, A separate column from Bilbao was said to be marching on Tolosa, a scant 20 miles from the French border. Tolosa, which fell to the insurgents early in the war, is considered a key T (See SPAIN, Page A-12) English Church Heads Reject Full Pacifism Archbishop of Can- terbury Views Prac- tical Redlities.

LONDON, November 28.—The Arch- bishop of Canterbury, primate of ail England, today rejected the doctrine of full pacifism “from the point of view of practical realities.” The head of the Church of England ‘was joined by the Archbishop of York in the formal statement. ‘The two primates, while condemning wars of aggression, said in their opinion, “Circumstances might arise in which participation in war would not be inconsistent with their duties as Christians.” On Thursday the two archbishops received a deputation “representing a number of pacifist clergy of the Church of England.” % ‘The statement from Lambeth Palace, official residence of Cosmo Gordon Lang, Archbishop of Canterbury, was issued in reply to the deputation. “The Archbishop of Canterbury,” the statement said, “looking at the situation from the point of view of practical realities, said the pacifist sttitude involved consequences to others in the event of war which he Entered as second class matter post office, Washington, D.

OSEVELT SALS FROM IO HARBOR Works on Second Major Address En Route to Buenos Aires. By the Associated Press. ABOARD THE U. 8. S. CHESTER, AT SEA, November 28.—President Roosevelt, already at work on his sec- ond major speech in South America, sailed southward today for Buenos Aires and the Inter-American Peace Conference. ‘The cruiser Indianapolis pulled out of Rio de Janeiro’s Harbor last night after a 12-hour visit in which hopes for strengthened relations between Brazil and the United States were re- affirmed on both sides. “I am leaving you tonight with great regret,” the Chief Executive of the United States told President Getulio Vargas of Brazil shortly before his cruiser departed. “‘One thing, however, I shall remem- ber—that is that it was two people who invented the New Deal—the President of Brazil and the President of the United States.” Mr. Roosevelt said intercontinental airplane service had made interna- tional friendship more easy to achieve, He invited Brazilians to visit the United States, not only for the good things Americans have done, “but also to benefit from the errors we have committed in the past.” Mr. Roosevelt remained on the In- dianapolis’ communications deck, wav- ing his handkerchief to cheering crowds along the harbor piers as his eruiser moved slowly out to sea. The bay was illuminated by a dis- play of fireworks on the summit of Sugar Loaf Mountain. Reflectors on other peaks caught the rockets’ burst- ing light, flashing it across the dark waters. The presidential party was expected to arrive in Buenos Aires Monday where Mr. Roosevelt is to address representatives of 21 American na- tions at the opening of the conference Tuesday. During his visit yesterday, Mr. Roosevelt told Brazilians the United (See ROOSEVELT, Page A-12.)

PHILADELPHIA, November 28.—A pair of youngsters tagged by birth and tradition for service game gridiron ex- ploits—Monk Meyer and Bill Ingram— loomed as the trump aces today as the Army and Navy prepared to fight their annual foot ball battle before 102,000 fans in Philadelphia’s huge municipal stadium. Fur coats, robes, blankets and any- thing else needed to keep warm were in demand for today's game. From a minimum of 22 degrees above zero in the early morning, the temperature rose slowly to 32 two hours before game time. The weather was cloudy. ‘The mighty mite of the Cadets, 147~ pound, 23-year-old Charles (Monk) Meyer, son of a lieutenant colonel, Hermie Meyer, was born on the West Point campus. Foot ball has been drilled into him since his romper days. William T. Ingram, 2d, 22, and weighing 170, is the fourth of his family to star on sallor teams. His father, Comdr. Jonas Ingram, caught the first touchdown pass thrown in the service series just 30 years ago. Homer was another Navy Ingram gridder while Bill was a canny quar- terback and later coach at Annapolis. Key Men of Attacks. Monk and Bill are the key men of their teams’ attacks. Both can run, pass and punt well, while Ingram also is an adept drop-kicker and whipped Notre Dame with a fleld goal the Sat- urday before the Ramblers swamped Arm; y. With all regulars in good shape, each team was determined to win. The Army took it easy yesterday, while the Navy romped through a short passing and booting drill. “We're ready. Itll be a tough, wide open game. If determination means anything, we'll win,” said the Nawv | coach, Lieut. Thomas Hamilton. | “We're not conceding Navy any- | thing,” asserted young, gray-haired Lieut. Gar Davidson, the Army mentor. “I'm not saying we’ll win and I'm not saying we'll lose.

But my kids are going to give them a hell of & time.” | Davidson planned to hold Meyer |out of the starting line-up and save | him for a strategical moment.

BOWIE, Md, November 28.—The fifth sponging victim of the meeting, which ends today, was discovered this morning when Dr. H. W. Collins of Washington, dislodged a sponge from the nose of Mrs. Dion K. Kerr's Heartease, one that performed in last ‘Tuesday’s third race. Trainer Kerr, who has had three | of his horses sponged during the meeting, noticed a peculiar odor about his filly, while in her stall this morn- ing. He immediately sent for Dr. Collins. The latter, after probing for several minutes dislodged a sponge, which gave evidence of being imbeded there for at least four days. Heartease set the pace for three- | quarters of a mile in the mile and one-sixteenth rate Tuesday. She stopped badly to finish fifth in the 18-horse fleld.

Season Closes Today. ‘The Eastern racing season came to s close today and it winds up| one of the most hectic sessions ever recorded. The recent developments at Bowie in which five horses were sponged and two others reported to! have been tampered with gives the sport of kings the greatest black eye it ever has received. Not even the reformers, who are dead set against the gambling feature of horse racing, have done as much harm to the game as the events in the final week at Bowie. ‘The spongers have worked with al- most a free hand and things have happened so rapidly that race goers are dizzy and in & maze. The of- fcials, while appearing to be stern, seem unable to cope with the situation. The stewards are not “wise” to that part of the racing game where all sorts of help are hired and no records of their character are required. It (See BO' Page Cousins’ Duel Fatal to Both.

Strikers Allow Ickes to Ship Foodto Alaska Boatload of Supplies to Leave Seaitle November 30. Under an agreement with maritime strikers, Secretary Ickes said today the Interior Department will send a boat- load of food supplies to Alaska leaving Seattle about November 30. The Office of Indian Affairs’ boat, the Boxer, will carry the first cargo of foodstuffs to Alaska since the begin- ning of the maritime strike two weeks ago. It will dock at Sitka, Cordoba and the Aleutian Islands. Ickes announced negotiations had been completed with the Alaska Pack- ers’ Association for chartering a 375- foot ship, the Arctic, on suthority of the President’s executive order for re- lieving food and fuel shortage in Alaska. The Arctic will require three days to load its cargo at San Fran- cisco and should be ready to leave for Alaska by December 5. Under the arrangement, the Inte- | rior Department has agreed to pay sailors the prevailing rate of pay, pro- viding for retroactive payments of the difference in the event the strike is settled with an agreement for higher wages. The Arctic will earry food and fuel supplies and a limted number of pas- sengers as far as Seward, whence they will be sent into the interior over the Alaska Railroad. Supplies will be conveyed westward on the ship Boxer to the several thousand inhabitants of the Alaska Peninsula and the Aleutian Islands. MARITINE STRIKE PARLEY 15 CALLED Peace Negotiators Attack One of Last Obstacles to Partial Settlement. B) the Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, November 28— One of the last obstacles to partial settlement of the Pacific Coast mari- time strike was attacked by peace negotiators today. Operators of over 70 coastwise freighters called a meeting with masters, mates and pilots, only unions | with which tentative agreements re- | main to be negotiated. All unions but the masters, mates | and pilots have signed contracts to| operate Government chartered ships for carrying food supplies to Alaska, cut off from normal sources by the strike called at midnight October 29. Col. O. F. Ohlson, manager of the Government-owned Alaska Railroad, which will charter the emergency ves- sels, expected the officers’ union to | sign a contract today. He then will leave for Seattle to get food ship- ments underway. ‘Working Agreement Signed. In New York, striking seamen signed | & working agreement last night with | two affiliated steamship companies, operating three freighters. Strike i headquarters hailed it as the first break in walkouts along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts following the Pacific dispute involving 37,000 union workers. West coastwise operators reached tentative accord last night with the | marine cooks and stewdrds. These | employers, who carry about 10 per cent | of coast cargoes, had reached tenta- tive agreements for new contracts with the other major marine unions Just prior to the strike. All tentative agreements must be ratified by union memberships and by the Shipowners’ Association of the Pacific, principal carriers of lumber from the Pacific Northwest. Ralph W. Myers, president of the Shipowners’ Association, and H. P. Melnikow, representing the cooks and stewards, announced agresment had been reached on all issues, including union preference in hiring, and a wage increase averaging about $10 monthly. This means wages of $62.50 to $105 per month. See Negotiations Resumed. Observers said peace between coast- wise operators and unions might be & wedge to bring about resumption of ne- gotiations between strikers and off- shore shippers, against whom the strike primarily was called. The New York wage agreement in- volved the Prudential Steamship Co., the Transoceanic Steamship Co. and striking seamen, marine engineers, radio operators and officers.

It will be paid at the old bank location, Eighth and H streets northeast, which is now operat= ed as a branch of the Hamilton Na- tional Bank. The total payments of $1,500,000 probably will have a substantial effect on Christmas trade in the Capital. The District National Bank paid 50 per cent to its depositors in one divie dend in September, 1933. The Northeast Savings Bank has paid 85 per cent in a series of differ- ent dividends, so that the additional 10 per cent will bring the total amount received by the depositors up to 95 per cent of the deposits at the time the bank closed in March, 1933.
