STORMB RACK WEST COAST-Unprecedented storms racked the Pacific Coast, bringing vast damage by wind and causing food threats in cresting streams to sections of Northern California. What glant swells did to Boythiand benches near Santa Barbara, Cal., is shown hero. Beach homes were undermined and wrecked, plers were ripped out and small craft scattered.
LORD MAYOR WELCOMES KING-King Leopold of Belgium, visiting in London, crowded many ceremonial functions into his schedule. Here he is entertained by the new Lord Mayor, 8r Harry Twyford, at the Guildhall. The King is in a high-backed chair at extreme left. At right are the Lady Mnyoreas, the Duke of Kent, Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and Mrs. Chamberlais.
WINTER IN MADRID-This winter around Madrid is reparted much worse than last, with intense cold and much rain. Such unusual weather conditions may prove a military factor of great import- ance, hampering troop movements and strategic operations. Already only artillery duels are in progress. Above, two Loyalist soldiers dressed to withstand the cold.
