LIFE'S AMBITION

Toledo, Sept. 30.

"The relief of the Alcazar has been my life's ambition and now the war is definitely won," declared General Francisco Franco, who hurried here as soon as he received news of the insurgents' victory.

A wave of mystic fervour spread over the crowd assembled to greet him and all knelt as the General drove into the sacred city and alighted in front of the ruined citadel, where women and children kissed his hands.

Amidst moving scenes, General Franco entered the Alcazar's ruins. He had to scramble up a steep pile of rubble, lending to a mass of twist- ́ed iron, wood and stone which is all that remains of the great fortress. The General, who was forced to pick

Stringent action is foreshadowed to check the milltla requisitions, which are often extortionate. For example, 270 cases of brandy were taken from the wine merchants during the week- end, allegedly for the men at the front. But subsequent "high Jinks" in barracks proved that much of the consignment never reached the firing
