Townsend staged another "walk out" today but in an auto chase a deputy sheriff brought him back to resume a deposition hearing about the Townsend old age pension organization. The pension leader walked out of a hearing being conducted by Benjam- in F: Sacharow, attorney. It was a scene reminiscent of the day he ab- ruptly left a hearing by a Congres- sional committee investigating the Townsend movement. "It's none of your business," Dr. Townsend replied to one of Sachar- ow's questions. He picked up his notes and abruptly departed.f 'Another Walkout,' Boys "It's another walkout, boys," said Sheridan" Downey, his counsel. To- gether they left the hotel room in which the hearing was conducted. Dr. Townsend immediately an- nounced he was leaving for Erie, Pa., to keep a speaking engagement. Sacharow obtained a citation for con- tempt of court from a notary public.s Deputy Sheriff Joe Pdseday armed himself with a body attachment. Sacharow and the deputy, accom- panied by Sacharow's brother, set out' from the hotel in a taxicab, following' Dr. Townsend's limousine. They sped through side streets and in East Cleveland headed off and stopped Dr. Townsend's car on a main route. With Dr. Townsend were his wife and Harry Maines. Have To Hurry "We had to use plenty of speed to head off Townsend's high powered limousine," said Sacharow. He charged Townsend was in flight. The deputy escorted Dr. Townsend' to common pleas court. There, the doctor said "I am not at all dis- pleased. It will probably resultdin 5,000 more clubs being organized the country over. It is all very high- handed, but since it is to my advant- age, why should I care?" Sacharow recited his story to Judge Samuel E. Kramer. He had been conducting the hearing in connection with a suit by Dr. Alfred J. Wright, reently removed as a regional Townsend leader. The suit asked that Dr Townsend and Trustees of Old Age Revolving Pensions, Ltd., be oust- ed, and that the court require an ac- counting of more than $1,000,000 in organization funds. Sacharow is counsel for Wright. Rouse To Lead Greenfield Trip At 1 P.M.

The action was decided upon by Secretary of State Hull after a' lengthyrconference with Admiral Wil- liam H. Standley, acting Secretary of the Navy, who issued orders diverting the two ships. They are the battleship Oklahoma, now at Cherbourg, France, as a unit in the midshipmen's training squad- ron, and the U. S. S. Quincy, the navy's newest 10,000 ton cruiser, now on a shakedown cruise to Europe. The added safety measures were decided upon despite diplomatic re- ports pouring in upon the State De- partment which carried no word of any injury to Americans during the recent days of strife. The same reports, however, told of a bloody battle yesterday between government and rebel forces in front of the American consulate at Vigo; of the hoisting of American flags over United States buildings in Madrid as a safety measure; and of British war vesselststanding by at two Spanish ports to aid British and American nationals if necessary. It was noted also that some towns at which Amer- icans are residing had not yet been heard from in diplomatic dispatches. It was presumed that the midship- ien aboard the Oklahoma would be transferred to the other two vessels U. Of M.

Kane To open 1 4wDay Run Of 'Pigreon'_Today Actor-Director To Portray Role In Galsworthy Play Made Famous By Him Whitford Kane, distinguished Eng- lish actor who is guest director of the Michigan Repertory Players, will make his first appearance of the summer in his most famous role, Christopher Wellwyn, in John Gals- worthy's "The Pigeon," which will oen a four-day run at 8:30 p.m. to- day at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.

Still Has Original Mr. Kane still has the origina manuscript of the play, several pages of which are now on display in the theatre lobby. It was after this pro- duction that the famous playwright wrote to Mr. Kane, saying that hi performance as Wellwyn in "Th Pigeon" had been so excellent that h had been quite spoiled for the idea o anyone else in that part. Mr. Kane has also 'been very activ in the theatre in the United States Among the many plays he has ap peared in are "Prunella," "Trelawne of the Wells," "The Cradle Song, Martial Law Proclaimed By Insurgents; Peasants Rallied To Their Cause Government Officials Seek French Shelter U.

Ambassador Is Said To Be In Border City Peppered By Bullets MADRID, July 22.-(Wednesday) -(AP)-Unofficial estimates early to- day placed the death toll in Spain's bloody revolt at more than 900, as the government claimed success against rebels in important provincial cities. The greatest casualties were re- ported in Barcelona, Spain's largest city on the northeast coast where 500 were said to have been killed and 3,000 wounded. Government ac- counts said the city was in the hands of loyal forces after bitter fighting. In the capital itself, 300 more were estimated to have been killed dur- ing an uprising Monday. Most of the victims were rebels. Attempts by revels to land at Alge- ciras, in the south, were said to have brought death to at least 100. VERA, Spain, July 2.-(A)-Vic- torious rebel troops which set up mil- itary headquarters in San Sebastian were 'eported tonight to have occu- pied most of Northern Spain. Large forces of Communists and Socialists, drafted as reinforcements to loyal guards, failed to halt the in- surgent march after the rebels pro- claimed martial law in the Provinces of Guipuzcoa and Navarre. The rebels recruited young peas- ants in the fields around Vera. From San Sebastian the revolutionary ad- vance continued toward Bilbao. In- vaders and defenders clashed on the front between Vera and Behobe, IFrance. Many rebels from Navarre Hill re- gions declared they were Carlist Roy-' alists who were issued arms by the women of Pampgona while enthusi- astic townspeople cheered the revel drive. Spanish frontier guards and cus- tom agents quit their posts to help fight off the rebels ,leaving the border open to newspaper correspondents who followed closely behind the in- surgent forces. A rebel colonel was found installed in the mayor's office at Vera. Routed Spanish officials fled in terror to France.
