Spanish Rebels Seem to Be Due to Win By William C Utley
Spain’s civil war rages with Madrid under 20 miles from fall as Franco’s Fascists push forward. Loyalists led by Francisco Largo Caballero face a divided nation with class hatred, illiteracy, and industrial underdevelopment shaping battle lines. Foreign powers seek non intervention while claims of aid to both sides surface amid a slow investigatory process.

Portrait of Patara te tutuhi and Maori frame tale
In Honolulu a traveler recalls Dr. Peter Buck and a Maori war journalist Patara te tu hi. He recounts a 1880 pamphlet war between Patara te tu hi and English editor John Gorst, the Maori sparrow story, Gorst’s fate, and later Maori prince tribute in Rotorua. A misfit frame for a royal gift sparks a museum anecdote about ownership and value.
