HITLER INCREASES FLEET. Cruiser and Submarines Expected in ! Spanish Waters Today. BERLIN, June 3 (#).—An authori- tative source reported today that Chancellor Adolf Hitler had dis- patched a fleet of German U-boats to Spanish waters as a ‘“preparedness measure” to defeat any Spanish gov- ernment attack with overwhelming force. Der Fuehrer was sald to have de- termined to be ready for any eventu- ality in the Spanish crisis, no matter what action the London Non-Inter- vention Committee decided on in an- | swer to his demand for ‘‘adequate” protection of German warships This, the authoritative source said, was the meaning of the rapid rein- | forcement of the Reich battle fleet off the coast of Spain. Hitler’s aim was disclosed to be a war force strong enough not only to resist any future attack such as that last Saturday in which 26 sailors aboard the cruiser Deutschland were killed, but to repel with overwhelming force even more ambitious atftacks, re for men RSN for dress. .. for sport!
