Madrid, Apr. 16.
The Premier of Republican Spain, Sr. Juan Negrin, today broadcast a protest against the Anglo-Italian accord which "already assumes the Spanish people have been conquered."
"The Republic has only begun to fight," he said. "We have more war supplies than when the Nationalist offensive was started. We will increase them."
Gen. Jose Miaja, vested with virtual dictatorial powers over Republican Spain, broadcast an announcement that Republican troops were repelling the Natiorblists; and had recaptured the coast near Benicarlo. Gen. Miaja conferred with leaders of the Popular Front, who pledged their unconditional support of the Governments programme.—United Press.
