MADRID WITHIN RANGE OF INSURGENT ARTILLERY
London. To-day. ·
Madrid is ROW within the range of the insurgent artillery, according to the insurrectionists' radio, which claims the capture of the villages of Parla and Humanes, with four big guns, machine-guns and provisions,
Reuter's special correspondent in Madrid, Mr. J. R. Allwork, describes a visit to the various fronts. He encountered fierce fighting on the Toledo road, after which he tried to reach the Aranjuez road from Getafe. He was turned back but saw insur- gent shells bursting 500 yards away, apparently directed at the railroad, on which an armoured-train was operating.
The Government line appeared to run from Brunete on the] Navakarnero road, through Humanes to Parla and from there to Pinto. Aviation did not participate in the operations, though Madrid was subjected to four daylight raids in addition to one! at night time.

“A. Lezzne based on the absurdity of absolute şurifical equ {lity must either renew itself or perish.

He added: “We can never forget that the League was urganised against us, with diabolical ingenuity.” Italy re- jected the system of collective security and the theory that pener was one and indivisible as illusions, ✓
