alone of a fight between a Ieft Wing Democratic government and a
Fascist rebellion, but one between | pital
the dictators of Europe ard radicalism, under whatever name it goes. Alarmist reports multiplied. Reports from Berlin were tnat Adolf Hitler already has ordered two cruisers and a flotilla of destroyers to reinforce his fleet in Spanish waters. Charge Rebels Aided French newspapers continued not only to charge openly that Germany and Italy were arming the Spanish rebels, but even cast doubt on Germany's charge that four of her nationals were killed at Barcelona. The newspaper ['Oeuvre put it: “It is hardly necessary to say that thus far the entire European press has not heard of this quadruple shooting.” Sources often reflecting authoritative views charged without qualification that the German cruiser Deutschland had landed munitions in rebel-held Morocco, and even aided in troop transport. and that the German steamship Usaramo has left Hamburg with 28 bombing airplanes, pilots, mechanics and munitions—presumably for Morocco.
Italians View Revolt as
Communist-Fascist War
o BY HENRY T. GORRELL (Copyright, 1936, by United Press) ROME, Aug. 7.-—Itailian belief hardened today that the Spanish revolt is a test between Fascism and Communism in which some foreign governments are siding with Com'munism. Quarters which usually reflect the official view showed open suspicion that not only Russia and France, but Great Britain are on the side of the Spanish Loyalists—Communists for the purpose of the argument—and that Italy and Germany are upholding the cause of Nazi Fascist law and order. The government organ, Giornale D'Italia, in a dispatch from London, reported “authoritatively” that the Spanish embassy there placed an order for arms with the Vickers Armstrong Co. Italians take it for granted that there is a traffic in arms, apparently organized, from France to Spain. .1 War Threat Seen Premier Benito Mussolini’s three conditions on which he said he would adhere to a neutrality agreement in the Spanish revolt were interpreted today, after consideration, to mean that Italy can remain neutral only if anti-Fascist and antiNazi propaganda abroad is’stopped —by what means, in such countries as France and Great Britain, nobody knows. So strong is the Italian view in the matter that a warning is read into the conditions that unless antiFascist. and anti-Nazist propaganda is halted Italy and Germany might throw Europe into a war. This is because Italians in au- . thority believe that Russia, France “and some British elements are sending to Spain arms and money not simply to aid the constituted government of Spain but as part of open warfare against Fascism and Nazism, How seriously Italy has regarded the trouble in Spain is indicated by its dispatch of four crack cruisers and an unknown number of auxiliaries to Spanish waters, particularly the Barcelona area.

ber, shot dead at Barcelona “while helping transport wounded wounded to hos-
Hitler conferred with high navy officials as soon as he heard reports of the “execution” of the four Ger-: mans at Barcelona and it was understood that immediately after the conference Admiral Eric Raeder, Fchief of navy staff, left ‘for Kiel naval base. Newspapers, quick to respond to official opinion under the Nazi totalitarian regime, at once began to stir public opinion against conditions in Spain.” Comment in today’s Morgenpost was typical: “The. death of four of our -ecitizens, who died for Germany, will spur us anew in the cry against the blood and terror of bolshevism. They shall not have died in vain.” It was believed that Germany’s next move, to follow up indignant protests to the Spanish authorities and demands for an investigation would be reinforcement of the already considerable war fleet in Spanish waters. There never has been any doubt about the view here of the Spanish revolt—that it. is a revolt against the menace of Bolshevism. News yesterday = that Russian trade unionists had sent a war fund amounting to $2,400,000 to the Spanish government caused real anger here. Another incidént stirring resentment was the complaint of the crew
Sevilla that the Spanish destroyer Almirante Valdees fired at it off Larache, Morocco, Wednesday, and asked jt to leave the port. (The Spanish version, as related at Tangiers, Morocco, was that the Sevilla was suspected of unloading arms for the rebels.)
Seeks Plane to Get Marooned Americans
By United Press GIBRALTAR, Aug. 7—J. H. Jordain, manager in Spain for the Socony Vacuum Oil Co., sought today to charter an airplane to rescue 30 Americans maroonéd at Granade, which is in the hands of Spanisn rebels. The rebels permitted Jordain to fly here to see if he could get. a plane in which to evacuate the Americans and 50 French tourists.
200 Frenchmen Offer to Fight Fascists
By United Press BARCELONA, Spain, Aug. 7— Two hundred members of the French Left Wing Popular Front arrived by steamship last night to enlist in the anti-Fascist militia. The new emergency government, in which all Left Wing elements.are represented, has prepared a series of drastic decrees, it was understood, which provide for dissolution of religious orders and seizure of their property. The property would be utilized for benefit the common: people, to be distributed through the labor unions.

By United Press HENDAYE, FRANCO - SPANISH FRONTIER, Aug. 7.—The important northern Spanish port of Gijon was reported in flames today as the result of heavy shelling from the rebel

GARBAGE DROP BRINGS PROTEST
Board Suspects Illegal Collection for Purpose of Feeding Hogs.
Cecil Calvert, City Sanitation Plant superintendent, appeared before the Works Board today with a complaint that citizens of Indianapolis were not providing sufficient garbage. | Income from the sale of by-prod-ucts from the disposal plant has decreased 3 ppaoRimatey $2000, he said. He said it the decrease was due to collect: of garbage for hogfeeding purposes .by citizens. Board members pointed out that this was against the law and that action would be taken if violations were
‘uncovered. |
The board also approved the paving of 11ith:st from Wallace-st to DeQuincy-st, the paving of several alleys, .and (ordered installation of water maing in several places. A petition for the paving of Hoyt-av from erm dr to Grant-st was denied. A petition, signed by 300 citizens, and asking water mains on E. 21stst for domestic use and fire protec-
tion, was presented by a delegation:
from the East Twenty-first Street Civic League. Alvin Stoneburner headed the committee, which also
asked ' opening of 'Bosart-av from.

HUNT GIRL ASSAILANT
By United Press
FORT WAYNE, Ind, Aug. 7.— Police here today sought a man who yesterday beat Edna Amons, 14, at her home after gaining admission posing. as a gas inspector. The man, learning the girl was alone, demanded money. She plead-
ed with him that she had none, and he knocked her down. He fled as
proportions around the cocktail bars and other meeting places. Ons report was that some 10 prominent | men of Hollywood were mentioned romantically in the passages. | Another disclosure by Anderson’ brought home to troubled Hollywood the oft-repeated adage that “all” servants have big ears.” Anderson = said the “tip-off” on-Miss Astor's diary came from a house servant, It was reported in one quarter that a volume of the diary was found in an unlocked drawer in the room where 4-year-old Marilyn, object of the bitter court fight between Miss Astor and Dr. Thorpe, slept. ? ; Both Dr. Thorpe and Miss Astor appeared under a strain. The athe letic Dr. Thorpe issued a bitter state= ment in which he said he “was through talking to newspaper men.” Charges Exaggeration “Every time I open my mouth they print a column,” said the doce tor. “An example is the exaggerations published in New York City and other places. Many of the things published as purported excerpts from the diary are not pages from the book.” | Miss Astor stole quietly from the studio where she was working last night and entered her home secret= ly.. Later servants reported by tele phone that she was not at home. Meanwhile, Dr. Thorpe’s attorneys planned to force Miss Astor's ap= pearance in court again tonight to answer questions bearing on her charges that Dr. Thorpe was married at the time he married her at
