ON ROAD TO BADAJOZ
Madrid, Aug. 20:
The way to Badajoz has been opened by a Govern- ment victory at Estramadura, according to official claims. The loyalists are said to have captured Alia, in the Guadelupe mountains, in an attempt to drive the rebels from Badajoz.
The position in Madrid is also much improved, it is stated by the War Ministry, and the Minister declared after a Cabinet meeting: "The enemy has been prevented from crossing the Guadarramas, marks the beginning of the end for them.

"The Government," he added; "routed an insurgent column in the district of Navalperal and the area is cleared of them."

"Devilish practice" was the
term applied to the drug. traffic by the Chief Justice, Sir Atholl MacGregor, at the Criminal Sessions this morning when he passed sentences, rang- ing from three to four years' | hard labour, on 11 Chinese for offences under the. Dangerous Drugs Ordinanco,
Addressing the prisoners, among whom were two women, His Lordship uld: "As you are the first persons
to have been charged on inderaus
for offences under the
Drugs Ordinance of 1935, I do not *propose to pass on you sentences so severe as I reserve the right to pasą on those who, at a later Sessions, are found guilty of the same offence. I say
that not because I am going to pass light sentences upon you, but merely as an indication to those who may be prone to continue the practice the sentences would be more

You have been engaged, for reasons only known to yourselves, on the most devilish practice one could Imagine. I regard it as my duty to piss on you sentences which, will serve not only as punishment on yourselves but, which hope, will act us a deterrent to others"

watching the peregrinations of the Japanese Ambas- sador, Mr. Shigeru Kawagoe, in North China, believing his visit will profoundly affect future Sino-Japanese relations.
+
Well-informed quarters expect Mr. Kawagoe, on his return to Nanking carly in September, will renew the Japanese pressure for acceptance of "suggestions" for the reduction of Chinese import tariffs as the price for co-operation in stamping out smuggling which is now not only undermining the entire economic structure of China but is seriously affecting Nanking's revenue in the rich Yangtse Valley, to which smuggled goods are penetrating.
Mr. Kawagoe is convening the North China Japanese amilitary attaches at Tientsin on Saturday which is considered most significant, in view of the general belief that the Ambas- sador has been in conference with the Japanese Commander-in- Chief in North China and General Takayoshi Matsumura, succes-" sor to General Doihara as head of the Special Service Department
of the Japanese Army. He also talked with representatives of
