A message from Madrid states that the British United Press correspondent states that Government forces found supplies of mustard gas shells among the munitions abandoned by the retreating Italians as well as large supplies of Pirelli gas masks, which immediately were served out to the loyalist forces.
A message from Lisbon states that the rebel leader, General De Llano, admitting an insurgent setback, said: "We have learnt a lesson. We shall not fall into the trap again. We will resume the advance under more favourable weather conditions.”
