BRITAIN'S BULL-RING

Prosperous Town Of La Linea

La Linea, where fierce fighting bas taken place in the Spanish counter-revolution, is a small and prosperous town öne and a half miles from Gibraltar, just beyond

"No Man's Land," as the neutral zone is known locally.

Its full name is La Linea de la Concepcion.,,,It is prosperous for two reasons.

In spite of the vigilance of the Spanish Customs officials there is a lucrative day-to-day smuggling trade carried out by Spaniards. who come into the free port of Gibraltar nominally to work, but more frequently to bring back cheap cigars and other goods.

The second reason for the town's. Its prosperity is its bull-ring. chle patrons are the British troops from Gibraltar. It is in the arena of La Linea that many a British
