crews.

The attempted revolts occurred on the destroyer Dan and the sloop Alfonso De Albuquerque.

As soon as those on shone were aware of the mutinles, the Gov- ernment land batteries Altoduque and Almada trained their guns on the ships, speedily disabling them and pounding the crews into sub- mission. ‘The warships were towed to shore and the crews t-hitvwn into jails as authorities worked to learn whether the mutinies had any far- reaching ramifications. . Witnessing the bombardmenis were the British steamers Asturias and Strathmorc, carrying several hundred British holiday-makers. So far as could be learned tonight neither British vessel had been endangered by the shelling.

LAY PLANS FOB. ATTACKS

MADRID, Sept. 8-'1'he ‘Madrid Government in the face of reports that its forces were being steadily vanquished in the northern coast- al sector, tonight laid plans for an artillery and airplane attack on the rebel stronghold of Oviedo. One column of Asturian miners at the same time was reported to have marched south 12 miles nearer Leon as the Government strove to dria the Fascist rebels from the northwestern territory.

Recruits were sought by the Madrid Government to bolster the lines of the defenders of the city around which the rebels have been camped for weeks.

SAINT JEN DE LUZ. France, Sept. 8—Spanish rebel columns to- night converged on besieged San Sebastian, their leaders spurning a. surrender offer made by the son of the governor of the city.

Old men, women and children fled the city in which factions of the defenders were reported to be fighting each other in the streets and pillaging homes and shops. Refugees told of anarchists vow- ing to burn and sack the city be- fore they would- let it fall into rebel hands.

Other units of the Social Gov- ernment defenders, the refugees said, were resigned to a last-ditch fight against the advancing rebels. hoping for reinforcements to arrive in time to prevent the fall of the strategic city near the French border.

Fascists Receiving Aid‘?

IUNDON. Sept. 8 - Viscount Churchill, heading the British vol- untary ambulance unit in Spain, tonight charged in a. cable to the Spanish medical aid committee here, that Germany and Italy are continuing to send arms to the Spanish rebels in violation of their neutrality declarations.

“Returning from the frctnt I my- self saw the bodies of women and children killed by bombs identified as German dropped from a tri- motored German plane," the mes-

. sage read.

Rebel Fortress Silent

‘TOLEDO. $08111, Sept. a-The guns within the besieged rebel fort- ress, the Alcazar, were stilled io- night for the first time since the siege opened July 20. Since dawn Tuesday not a single shot had an- swered the heavy cannonading. Despite the apparently hopeless situation of the 1,700 besieged men, women and children, government attackers watched in vain for a white flag. Those within apparent- ly were banking on a last hope of rebel forces breaking through the government lines surrounding the city and rescuing them.

Study Measures Today

LONDON. Sept. 8-—An interna- tional committee to regulate meas- ures intended to isolate the Span- Lsh civil war will meet privately here tomorrow.

LOS ANCi-ELES. Sept‘, 8-—A wid- ening front of fire raced down the dry, bi-ushy slopes of Los Flores Canyon tonight toward the $3,000,- 000 motion picture residences at Malibu Beach.

Defying the efforts of 500 fight- ers, thrown along wide iire lines, the flames raged out of control, de- stroyed a score of mountain cabins and advanced to within four miles of the screen colony.

Officers said a. large dynamite cache was in the path of the blaze which already has burned over 3,- 000 acres in the Malibu mountains, ninemiles north of Santa Monica.

PITTSBURGH, Sept. ‘I-A new method for prophecying the num- ber of colds a pPFSOII will suffer during the coming winter was de- scribed today before the American Chemical Society by Dr. Arthur Locke of Western Pennsylvania Hospital.

The method, based on a, "fitness rating" or ability of the body to consume oxygen during exercise. was offered ns a new chemical ap- proach to the mystery of the com- mon cold, caused, scientists believe, by a non-filterable virus wthicli thus for has escaped detection.

This fitness rating is a. measure of the ability of the body to clim- inute disease-producers.

Rebel Chieftain Tenders Apology

Insurgent Gcneralissimo Fran- cisco Franco, communicating per- sonally with the American Consul at Seville, said, however. this had not been definitely established. The rebel chieftain nevertheless tend- ered his regrets to the United states government.

It was learned authoritatively Secretary of State Hull was study- ing the rebel communication with

Trades and L a b 0 r Congress O p e n s Sessions In Mon- treal

(By Frank Flaherty, Canadian Press Staff Writer)

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

MONTREAL, Sept. fi-Canadian working men can win economic freedom without. firing a shot if they build up their organizations and use. the ballot intelligently the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada was told today by P. M. Draper of Ottawa, its present as the 52nd annual convention of the Congress opened.

The convention got down t0 business in 205 resolutions for- warded by local and affiliated bodies after an opening speech by Mr. Draper iu which he held pro- gress along constitutional liucs pre- ferable to revolutionary or disrup- tive propaganda, . Y

Assure Cooperation

From Hon. Norman Rogers, fed- eral Minister of Labor, the Con- gress received an assurance the government would listen t0 its rep- resentations with a sympathetic ear. He said close and friendly re- lations between government and organized labor were the best as- surance of sound government and social progress in a democratic state.

“Our government should pro- vide by law that all employees should have the right to organize for their own protection," said Mr. Draper. “This was done temporar- ily during the war. It. was agreed to in the treaty of peace at the close of the war. It was recom- mended by the price spreads 0.0m- mission last year.

“That. the workers must work out their own salvation to a large ex- tent will be agreed by all, but the ivorkers should not be up against hopeless odds. The power of the state should be put back of the workers’ natural right to organize with their fellows in labor unions of their own choice.”

Resolutions Passed

Some 27 of the 205 resolutions on the order paper were disposed of but the convention did not reach any, of several resolutions express- ing sympathy with the committee for industrial organization in the American Federation of Labor and protesting against threatened split in United States body with which the Canadian Congress is affiliat- ed.

Resolutions banking, constitutional _a.mend- merits, minimum wages and other topics.

An increase in the currency issue to make it more in keeping with the "Wfillilll and resources of our country developed and otherwise" was urged in a resolution passed on submission by Toronto Street and Electric Railway Employees. The motion said the government should take complete ownership of the central bank in order to carry out this policy.

Proposal Rejected

A proposal to make homes valued at less than $2.000 exempt. from municipal taxes was frowned upon, however. It was rejected after a brief debate in which Carl Berg, chairman of the resolutions com- mittee argued it would divide workers into “DTODUT-Y-Qwnlllil slaves and non-propcrty-owning slaves" and might disrupt the labor movement.

Amendments to the British North America Act were demanded in another resolution passed. The i, act was‘ said to be obsolete rind to have outlived its usefulness. The executive of the Congress was in- structed to ask the federal govern- ment. to have the law amended to ,"'make the government supreme." ‘The resolution said legislation for

the benefit of the people had from

J1me to time been declared uncou-
