Before she announced her withdrawal, however, five German warships destroyed Almeria, exacting a toll of nearly 100 lives In payment for the Deutschland's 24 dead.

Tlie destruction of Almerla. whose narrow, cobble-stoned streets bo-night were heaped with debris and the torn bodies of men, women, and children, precipitated the worst war scare to spread through Europe in 28 years.

J PARIS, May 31—It-Pi—France and J Oreat Britain tonight warned Chancellor Adolf Hitler of Oermany that, unless he abandons his acts , of reprisal, he may plunge Europe ! into a terrible war. it was learned authoritatively.
Thc joint Franco-Brttish demarche. precipitated by the destruc-1 tion of Almeria on the southern , Spanish coast by five German War-1 ships, followed day-long consultations between the foreign offices ln London and Paris.
1 Britain and Fiance also took tlie initiative in proposing that a neutral board of inquiry be establ'shd to fix the blame for the bombing ,of the German "pocket battleship'
! Deutschland with a loss of 24 lives.
8hortly before the bilateral warning to Hitler, the French navy ministry announced that the French steamer Finiatere, enroute to Sete, was halted by an armed rebel trawler 10 miles south of Majorca I in the Balearlcs.
t The trawler, the Pedro, ordered the Finlstere to put Into the rebel port of Palma, but at that moment j the French destroyer Simoun, on neutrality patrol, steamed up and escorted the steamer to Sete.
