...British-Italian pact are these explicit words: "So far as Italy is concerned the integrity of present territories of Spain shall in all circumstances remain intact and unmodified." When Der Führer's correspondent asked II Duce if the setting up at Barcelona or elsewhere in Spain of a Soviet State would "destroy the status quo in the Mediterranean," which Britain and Italy have just pledged themselves to abide by, the Dictator snorted: "Obviously...
...severely injured, one dead. Martin Johnson, with both jaws broken, skull cracked, a shattered hip and internal wounds, became hysterical with pain. Osa, with leg broken and a concussion, was able only to wipe his face. Rescuers struggling up the mountain heard his screams afar. The plane was almost intact, with one motor torn loose.

Q. in Madrid and astonished General Miaja barely escaped, his life intact but his illusions shattered. After G. H. Q. had been bombed obviously there was no safety in Madrid. The U. S. State Department radiophoned orders to Charge d'Affaires Eric Wendelin to close up the U. S. Embassy, move it to Valencia. A baby born...
