The Daily Herald states that, in addition to the Tetuan revolt, mutinies occurred among General Franco's forces at La Linea and Algeciras. All were suppressed and executions followed, but the increase pf such occurrences is alarming the rebel authorities. General Franco placed Italian officers in charge of the La Linea forces after a fevolt of riflemen who refused to continue fighting without pay, but Moorish troops quelled them. The rebellious troops at Algeciras were soldiers of an Italian regiment from Pavia.
