SHOW DEFIANCE OF LOYALIST THREAT TO ATTACK ITALY

Three British Ships In Alicante Escape Bombs

Paris, June 27.

Grimly answering the Loyalist threats to bomb Italy and Germany in retaliation for Insurgent bombings of open towns, four planes, reported to be Italian Savoias. bombed Alicante yesterday.

It is believed that the casualties were high, despite the fact that Loyalist pursuit planes quickly forced the Insurgent bombers to flee.

Three British merchant vessels were in the harbour, but none was hit.

The Spanish Prime Minister refused to amplify his previous warning. However, even such a limited threat to bombard Italian or German towns is crammed with the gravest possibilities, in the view of the Bologna newspaper Resto del Carlino, which said that Loyalist raids on Palma de Majorca would "bring a settlement of accounts."
