HAPPENINGS. AS SEEN BY

THE CAMERA'S EYE

TWO TERRIBLE YEARS

ON July 17, 1936, a brief mes

sage sent from Madrid told the world of a “military revoltin Spanish Morocco,”

From that day war has raged in Spain, more than half a million men, wouch and children have been killed and at least the same number wounded. Damage to property is so high that it cannot be estimated.

Two million Spaniards, who two years ago were leading a nor mul civilian life, are note refugees, more than a 100,000 of them in foreign countries.

General Franco, rebel leader, with Moors (like those on the left), Halians and-Germms, now con- trols two-thirds of the Spanish mainland, African possessious, and islands, except Minorca.

Here is a picture-news summary of those two terrible years.

Barrleades, mostly manned by civilians, gave Assurance that loyalist Spain was prepared to give its life in defence of democracy,

Ale raids, with their appalling death roll, horrified the world. Now they are regarded as inevitable as the strucela continues.
