VIOLENT FIGHTING ON

THE TERUEL FRONT

LOYALISTS BLOW UP BUILDINGS

BEFORE RETREAT FROM SARRION

Castellon, July 14. Violent fighting is continuing on the Teruel front where the Na- tionalists have launched a new large-scale offensive. The National- ists have concentrated extremely strong forces for the offensive and are employing more war material than ever before.

Nationalist military circles estimate the strength of Republican troops on the Teruel front at 28 brigades, with 33,000 men, including the 65th Brigade, considered as a crack upit.

The brigade is known under the name of "Sons of Miaja" and enjoys the special confidence of the Republican army command.
