MADRID, Nov. 7.—(AP)
—General Sebastian Pozas I
seized complete command
of Madrid’s affairs today in
the absence of the govern-

workers’ army, clung grrmly
to the besieged city.
Pozas, generalissimo of Um* gov-

became head of a new safety coun-

government ministers had left be-

A history of Texas that has long
been hoped for is that, "The Ro-
mantic History of Texas", written
by Peter Molyneaux, a man who
probably has as keen an insight in
Texas and its history as any one
who has ever undertaken to write
of it. Although Peter Molyneaux is
not a native Texan, he is fitted to
write authoritatively about his
adopted State by reason of a quar-
ter of a century's work in Texas
Journalism His Journalistic career
began in 1902 at the age of 20 when
he became a reporter in his home
town, the Dally News of New Or-
leans in 1903 he succumbed to the
longing for the classroom that he
had felt ever since leaving school
at the age of 15. Taking leave of
absence from newspaper work, he
enrolled in the Meadville Theologi-
cal School, of Meadville. Pa , where
he completed four years work in
two years:
At the end of his study, lie Join-

his coming to Texas, where he work-

Mexico for the San Antonio paper
and wrote a series of articles on
Mexico's recovery under Madero He
was in Mexico City when Felix Diaz
started his revolt and during the

Leaving newspaper work in the
middle twenties, he became editor 1
of the Texas Monthly, magazine of i
literature and history, which has j
since yielded place to the Texas
Weekly, of which he has been editor
since its establishment in 1930 His
writings in this publication have
gained him national and interna-
