BY ROBERT PARKER Associated Press Foreign Staf

BILBA0» Sllflill. April 29-(AP)--The Spanish govern.

ment sent 32 planes to the aid of beleaguered Bilbao to- day, and 30,000 Basque troops set up a last line of defence in trenches encircling the city.

Spanish air minister Indalecio Prieto personally brought

the planes from Valencia to the cheers of the 350,000 to

400.000 population

’l‘en thousand troops remained in advance lines from

Durango, 16 miles_ eastward, to slow and harry the Insur- gent advance, while the stronger force prepared to with-
