SPAIN PROMISES (CONTINUED FROM WAGE ONE) mostly undefended and with large civilian populations. In the last 24 hours, eight centers were bombed, either by insur--1 gent or loyalist planes. Madrid i itself was attacked from the air : for the third time. The bombardment of beleaguer;ed Irun was merciless. Airplanes and artillery poured bombs and shells into the center of the city, starting fires and killing an unknown number of persons. Women ■ and children had been evacuated from Irun. but rebel hostages held ! by the loyalists were placed in the most exposed positions, to be killed, if possible, by the fire of their own comrades. From Irun, Bilbao, and Burgos in the north to Malaga in the south,, the cruel work went on. From I everywhere came reports of the mass slaughter of rebel and loyalist prisoners. Some were condemned by court martial and shot. Others, apparently, were merely lined up in batches and mowed down. Typical of the fanatical determination of the opposing factions, fired by bitter hatred, was the report from Toledo that the 1,300 rebels besieged in the Alcazar there had mined the historical cas- ; tie with dynamite and were prepared to blow themselves up rather than surrender. The military situation was unchanged and was no indica- > tion of a definite break for either side. Irun, after a week of siege, was in a desperate way and its fall appeared probable. Capture of Irun would leave the rebels free to concentrate on San ’ Sebastian and Bilbao, possession o which would leave the rebels dominant on the north coast and in a position to move south to join the forces threatening Madrid from the Guadarrama mountains. The rebels also attacked determingly to the south of Madrid, seeking to move on the capital from the Toledo and Merida regions. They met with stout loyalist resls» tance and tne issue was far from being decided. A grave threat to the rebels existed in Morrocco, where the Unit-, ed Press correspondent at Casa--I>lanca reported the Moorish na-. tives on tne verge of revolt, and refusing to fight for the insurgent cause. The rebels had counted heavily, on Moorish aid, making extravagant promises of good pay which their resources are unable to meet. Revolt of the Moors might destroy Spanish domination in North Africa.

Amelia earhart is adding another “first” to her long record. First to fly alone from Honolulu to California, first to solo from Mexico City to New York, first woman to accomplish many feats in the air, now America's No. 1 Woman pilot becomes the first to practice aeronautical research with a “flying laboratory” of her own. The purchase of the new plane, a 210-mile-an-hour twin-engine Lockheed Electra, wan made possible by the Purdue Research Foundation of Lafayette, Ind The “flying laboratory’s" scientific activities will be carried on in cooperation with the Foundation and with Purdue University, at which M’.ss JUarbart is a Consultant In Aeronautics. Incidentally, Purdue is the only educational institution in the country owning a fully equipped airport. Recently the Foundation has established the "Amelia Earhart Fund for Aeronautical Research”, offering permanent machinery for the conduct of aeronautical experimentation and scientific research along such lines ns the Foundation, the University snd the aviatrlx may elect The new plane, just completed in California, is a monoplane, normally equipped to carry ten passengers and two pilots. Built to fit Miss Earhart’s requirements. *ts passenger seats have been replaced by extra fuselage tanks, giving a total fuel capacity of 1240 gallons of gasoline This provide* a eruis-

; ing range of 4500 miles. The plane . is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Wasp motors, developing 1100 horse ! power. The cruising speed is 180 , miles, top speed in excess of 210. . The total weight of the plane loaded i is about 16,000 pounds. Among those who cooperated in the project of the new aviation L laboratory is Vincent Bendix, sponsor of many aeronautical activities including the annual Bendix trans--1 continental race. The plane is ; equipped with Bendix instruments ’ and parts. Outstanding among the modern instruments to be used by Miss Ear--1 hart is the Sperry Gyro-Pllot, a ' mechanical device replacing the ’ pilot at the controls so that the ship 1 actually can be flown without hu- ' man guidance. Additionally there will be a new radio homing device recently perfected by the Bendix aviation in- ' terests. This may be set upon any ■ commercial radio station and once ' so adjusted will point the exact ' course to that station. Further, this ' radio path-finder may be hitched up ’ with the Gyro Pilot. The almost ' uncanny result of combining the functions ' ' the two would be that the ship would fly without human piloting to the designed broadcast station. Indeed, once arrived, it i wuutd automatically circle the radio i masts, presumably until its fuel - is exhausted! Elaborate two-way Western Elec- ■ trie radio telephone apparatus has I been Installed, for both voice and telegraph code communication.

i Among the flying problems of ' particular interest to Miss Earhart > are those of navigation. To facilI itate observations, a special hatch . will be cut in the after-part of the I fuselage. A Bausch & Lomb bubble sextant and newly designed lighti weight binoculars will be among i the navigational equipment. Study of the “human reactions of 1 flying" offer a particularly fruitful ’ field for research, the aviatrlx be- ’ lieves. 1 “The psychological factor has [ been largely neglected,” Miss Earhart declares, “and I want to con- ’ duct a sort of clinical survey to , deUralno the effects, upon varying , Individuals of speed, altitude, pres- , sure, fatigue, mechanical aids and other conditions of flying.” , The p.oblems of diet for passen- . ger and pilot are ot particular in- . terest. For long flights, emergency . rations concentrated in volume and , weight are Important. In the past ■ Miss Earhart’s own stand bys have i been tomato juice, as a beverage, i with Horlick’s Malted Milk tablets as concentrated sustenance. . Headquarters for the plane’s re- : search activities will be the Purl due Airport at Lafayette. The first . major aeronautical expedition con- ; templated is a shake-down flight, i in the late autumn.
