The Spanish Republican' submarine "C 4" which had sought refuge in a considerably damaged condition in the French port of Lo Verdon in order to carry out repairs after having obtained permission from the French government, was still lying in the roadsteads this afternoon, The damage on the upper part of the hull was clearly visible from the pier.
The submarine commander now states that while cruising on the surface off Gijon the submarine had been attacked by an insurgent aeroplane. A bomb had exploded near the submarine and caused the damage now visible—Trans-Ocean, Skin eruptions due to eczema and scabies, impetigo and other septic re far too prevalent. An appeal is made for a free supply in bulk of cod liver oil, boracic ointment, sulphur ointment, mercurial ointments and mild antiseptic lotions of all kinds.
