ecapiqre Teruel

(By The Canadian Press)

HENDAYE, Dec. Eli-Spanish Insurgent troops tonight stormed heights dominating Toruel in n drive to retake the captured pro- vincial capital and rescue a force of beleaguered comrades.

They drove at the Aragon front city just as the Spanish Govem- ment announced in Barcelona that Insurgents in the Teruel seminary had surrendered after holding out for several days. Insurgents still fought Government troops from thoBank of Spain and the City Hall, Barcelona reported.

The Insurgent rescuers had or- ders from General Franco to win back the city, strategic point on the eastern front, "regardless of cost."

Insurgent dispatches said Gov- ernment forces had been compel- led to abandon recently won ter- ritory northwest of Teruel follow- ing severe infantry and artillery duels initiated by a. reinforced In- surgent Army.

They said they expectedlomnke contact shortly with the estimated 3,000 Insurgent soldiers and an equal nlunber of civilians who still held the besieged buildings with- in the city.

Insurgents, who did not admit the seminary garrison had surren- dered, said the commander of the the three buildings 1| essagcd the military Governor of Irun they were holding the at- tackers back successfully.

Roosevelt Hints Ex- pans ion Citing Troubled World Sit- uation.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 38-(APl-— Pr ‘d wt Roosevelt announced a possible increase in the naval building program today because, he said, the facls of the troubled world situation “are facls and the United States must recognize them."

Without referring to the recent sinking of the American gunboat Panay, or any other specific inci- dent, and disclaiming any un- friendly glmture toward any par- ticular nation, he said merely that recent events had caused him "growing concern."

His intentions were announced at a press conference in which he referred correspondents to a letter he had written Chairman Taylor (D-Colo.) of the House of Repre- sentatives appropriations subcom- mittee on the Navy, advising him that he might expect additional estimates for naval building.

Parrles Questions

At the conference. the President answered a barrage of questions which the reporters fired at him.

How many vessels would be added to the present program, he could not say, nor could he fell wilat types of ship would be con- structed. 'I‘llat awaitpd further study.

Nor did he know whether addi- tional authorizing legislation would be needed. That depended on the type of vessel to be built. If it should be decided to build war- ships falling into the categories authorized by the Vinson Act. new legislation would not be needed.

For the present. at least, no increased naval personnel would be necessary.

The letter to Taylor, in effect. told the latter that the estimates for naval building which will be included in the budget that goes to Congress next work were to be regarded as incomplete.

At the capitol. most leahlators were reluctant to discuss the step immediately but thcre were some who were uulck to speak their minds.

"All I desire to say at this time," said Senator Borg}; of Idaho, ranking Republican on the Fcrﬁgn Affairs Ccmnliffcc. "is that I sillcerey hope the Prcsi- dent will not fllld it necessary to (‘ﬁll l0!‘ l1 large arlnamcnis out- lays.

From Senator Wheeler (D-Mont) came this statement:

"I see no necessity for spending millions and millions of dol'nrs for armrmcnt: and battleships when one-third of our people are ill-housed, ill-fed and ill-clothed." ('I'l'le last clause of tilc sentence was n quotation from a Roosevelt speech).

Fire caused $300 estimated dam- age to a one and a half storey wooden building housing the Can- adian Bank of Commerce at Mur- ray River yesterday morning.

PRAHA, Dec. 28~<CP Haven- The dlspute with Germany over the complex problem of Reich minorities was the cardinal issue on the Czechoslovak political hori- zon during 1937.

Throughout 12 months which saw increasingly strong Czechoslo- vak defences rise on the border zone facing Germany, Pralla statesmen were consistently pre- occupied with Reich agilntion on

behalf of the German minority and the demands of the lrliter within this country's frontiers

These number about 3,300,000, rc- sldlng in the northern. northwest- ern and soutllweslern border zoucs.

Angry. blasts from Berlin time and again stirred ihc political ira- ters. Czechoslovak leaders sought to parry the attacks by trying to smooth out the friction at llome with Konrad Henlcllrs pro~Nazi Sudeten German group.

At the same time the govern- ment steadily forlred strcngcrzlrnls of offence and defence. The army was reorganized. A new “Maginot line" of defences was established in northern Bohemia. Under lhc vigorous pressure of President Eri- ouard Bones military expenditures were increased.

Relations with the other two members of the Little Entc-nie. Rumania and Yugoslavia, were tightened. Successful moves to better relations with Austria and Hungary were underlaken.
