BU .LETIN GIBRALTA®, March 28 (U. ‘P.)—~The surrender of Lerida, - Loyalist Gener: 1 Headquarters in Catalonia, w= claimed in a broadcast by ve "Rebel Alcazar Quivir radio today. There was no confirmation ~f the report.
HENDAYT, French-Spanish Frontier, March 28 (P. P.).—Spanish Rebel troops, fighting at last on the rich soil of Catalonia, renewed| the biggest drive since the
. World War today in an attempt to
‘end quickly what Gen. Francisco Franco called “the last chapter of
gthe civil war.
Moors from Africa, Italian blackshirts, and Spaniards joined in an offensive on 2 120-mile north-to-south front from which came reports of almost unchallenged rebel. victories. Airplane high as 200 cach smashed a path for the troops and Loyalists reported that one village—Rosels— had been completely destroyed by aerial bombardments. Tanks, big suns, even newly arrived cyclist corps co-operated with the rebel infantrymen.
1700 Ifalians Killed
Thirty-five miles from the Mediterranean -&t one point; 15 miles from the Loyalist general headquarters at Lerida at another; less than 100 miles from the Loyalist emergency capital, Barcelona, at the third, the Rebel troops pushed
oe ovalists asserted that their avi-
- ators had shot down one German
and four Italian planes. The Italian officizl news agency at Rome said that Italian casualties since March 9 in the drive had totaled 1787—29 officers and 253 men killed, 33 missing and 123 officers and 1249 men wounded. Rebels crossed the Catalan border (the Cineca River) yesterday near -the village of Fraga, on the main Zaragoza-Barcelona Road 18 miles southwest of the Loyalist grand headquarters at Lerida. Rebels camped for the night on the outskirts of Fraga, after watching the Loyalists retreat over the Cinca River, blowing up the bridges as they went. Two hundred airplanes bombed Fraga yesterday afternoon and cut the communications with Lerida.
Loyalists Claim Line Holds
The Loyalists reported their Cinca River line holding this morning, after a day of retreating. The Rebels countered with detailed claims to the capture of several thousand Loyalist soldiers and 15 pieces of artillery at Fraga. They seemed to be advancing with astonishing speed and organization. Loyalist leaders sought urgently today to muster their last resources
" to stem the drive.
The Cabinet confirmed 17 death sentences against men accused of desertion, rebellion and espionage. Labor union leaders appealed to their members to go to the front and build new defenses in the Rebel path. The Communist-controlled Unified Socialist Party began org volunteer columns &nd will offer them to the Army. Even the Anarchist-Syndicalist Union CNT. which has insisted on operating independently ever since the war started, announced its whole-hearied support of the Government and urged its members to put themselves unreservedly at the disposal of Indalecio Prieto, National Defense Minister. .
| Women Urge Volunteering
It was reported that Senor Prieto, Left Wing Socialist, was leader of the Government group in favor of a defense to the death if it came to that. : Women’s orgapizations, in a manifesto, called on all able-bodied. men to go .to the front and “halt those who are cowardly enough to give way before the claws of the German,s Ifalians and Moors. “Women and children will cperaty industry if the men go,” said the manifesto. “We ask the men to halt the advance directed by the hangmen of Europé. Catalans can lead our cause to victory.” The Government newspaper organ La Vanguardia in an editorial, quoted rumors that France was prepared, to seek a union with Catalonia,” and assume control of Minorca Island in the Balearsic group and of Spanish Morocco as part of a deal] with Rebels.
“This is part of a Rebel plan to
demoralize the Loyalist population,” said the newspaper.

® ‘FOLLYWOOD, Say S. March 28.—I wish these foreign countries would settle their disputes and settle down.

They’ll go along quietly in. a bunch, pickin’ up corn but the .minute they get excited, they all scatter ; out.

0 Claims Loyalist Base:| Anglo-Italian Pact Takes Form; Chinese Winning at Yellow River
ober Prize Winner Held By Nazis; Another Released. LONDON, Maréh 28 (U. P.).—The
new British-Italian pact is now taking definite shape, it was under-
.|stood today, land is likely to be
signed formally before Adolf Hitler visits Benito) Mussolini early in May. It is at present uncertain how many points embodied in the whole agreement will pe included in the pact as published, and how many will have the nature of private undertakings between the two Gov-
ernments: According [to a most responsible source the features of the agreement as now envisaged are: 1—Reaffirmation of the BritishItalian “gentlemen’s agreement” of January, 1937, recognizing the present status.in the Mediterranean. 2—A formula by which Britain recognized Italy's annexation of Ethiopia.
Parity Ideas Dropped 3-—Italy regardless of contrary reports has dropped any thought she may have entertained of seek-
ing naval parity with Britain in the
Mediterranean, 4—Ttaly undertakes to reduce her garrison in Libya. 5. In deference to Mussolini it is intended that Britain shall reaffirm certain clauses of the 1888 Suez
Canal agreement regarding free- |.
dom of transit. 6. Mutual agreement to ban construction of fortifications along the Eastern shores of the Red Sea. 7. Britain asks a formal pledge by Mussolini to abstain from raising a native army in Ethiopia. 8. (Presumably by private agreement) —Britain and Italy undertake to determine grazing rights along the Ethiopian frontier and to delimit Ethiopia’s boundaries with Kenya and the Sudan. Britain also expects safeguards for continued access to the waters of Lake Tana, essential to Sudan cotton plantations. 9. Both nations .to give assurance to stop hostile, subversive propaganda in the Near East and elsewhere.
Franico Answers Note

Nazi Reconciliation With Vatican Hinted
VIENNA, March 28 (U. P.).—Unofficial Nazi and Roman Catholic quarters talked hopefully today of the possibility of an early reconciliation between Germany and the Vatican. The chief reason for the hope was a letter read in all Austrian Catholic churches yesterday urging Catholics lo gy “yes” in the April 10 plebisc In Berlin the official news agency said of this declaration that the entire German nation took cognizance of it “with joy and sincere satisfaction,” and added. “This declaration is destined to wipe clean the slate of the past.” Among those taken into “protective custody” by the Nazis are Prof. Otto Loewy, Nobel prize winner and University of Graz physiologist, and Ernst Straeussler, professor of criminal psychology, it was revealed today.

Scientific Relief . Program Is Goal
By MAX STERN Times Special Writer - WASHINGTON, March 28.—Relief of the jobless, which has cost American taxpayers more than 20 billion dollars since 1933, may be standardized, simplified and put on a more scientific long-term basis as the result of a report due to be submitted to the Senate about midApril by! its Committee on Unemployment and Relief, headed by Senator Byrnes (D. S. C.). Hearings covering six weeks of testimony from scores of business,
labor, farm and relief leaders have}
ended except for a last word from WPA Chief Harry Hopkins, who is to testify April 5. Pre on of the committee’s report and recom-
‘mendations will then be rushed, as
a guide to Congress in enacting the relief program for the fiscal year which begins July 1. : The investigation, first of its kind since the Federal Government assumed the role of almoner to the depression’s victims in 1933, covered three fields—the costs and administration of relief; rural poverty; and the causes and possible cures of the recession. Recommendations will probably include: 1, Some measures to reduce the staggering public burden of relief. The committee learned that in 1933-37 relief cost $19,300,000,000. Of this $14,300,000,000 was Federal, and $5,100,000,000 was supplied by states, cities and counties.
2. A more definite formula: for |
assessing the burden as between the Federal and local governments and reducing administrative costs by application of the merit system to localities receiving Federal moneys. 3. Acceleration of the program for public employment offices, and coordination of unemployment insurance, relief, placement, and retraining functions. 4. Measures for stimulating private re-employment, including tax changes that might slow down the tempo of mechanization; encouragement of the annual wage, and other suggestions for expanding industrial activity, particularly in the durablegoods industries. 5. Specific suggestions to guide Congress in enacting a new relief bill. “At the present spending rate it is estimated that $2,225,000,000 will be necessary for 1939—more than twice the one billion suggested by President Roosevelt in his budget message last January. 6. A possible suggestion that the Committee be continued on a permanent basis as a fact-finding and policy-guiding agency for Congress or that Congress set up a standing Somities on relief and. unemployment,
