  • The Battle of Sigüenza ended in a Nationalist victory.
  • The British press observed an unofficial policy of self-censorship and refrained from publishing reports of Mrs. Simpson's divorce proceedings.

  • Rumors of King Edward's relationship with Mrs. Simpson spread throughout England as the odds of Edward actually marrying her began to be weighed in the foreign press.[33][34] American newspapers began disappearing from British newsstands without explanation.[35] However, foreign magazines delivered to subscribers through the mail were arriving untouched.[36]

October 22, 1936 (Thursday)

  • The Belgian Rexist Party announced its intention to march on Brussels in a conscious imitation of Mussolini's March on Rome in order to "sweep out the Paul van Zeeland government and its corruption" despite a government order banning the march. Van Zeeland made a national radio address that evening appealing for calm and announcing measures that amounted to martial law.[44][45]
  • General José Miaja was put in charge of the defence of Madrid.[46]
  • The British press continued to tiptoe around the Edward VIII abdication crisis. London publication The News Week wrote that "the effects of the unofficial censorship have been disastrous, giving the impression abroad that there is something to hide." The weekly publication Cavalcade, which had been running articles about the king and his friendship with Mrs. Simpson for weeks, ran a short notice of Simpson's divorce suit and mentioned that thousands of words had been published in the United States about it. The Guardian ran an article about the possibility of the king's coronation being postponed but avoided any direct explanation for why a postponement might take place.[47]
  • Dod Orsborne, captain of the Girl Pat was convicted and imprisoned of its theft, having caused a media sensation when it went missing.[48]

October 25, 1936 (Sunday)

  • The alliance soon to be known as the Rome-Berlin Axis was formed when Germany and Italy agreed on a pact.[9]
  • The Rexist "March on Brussels" ended up as an embarrassment due to low turnout and rowdiness by those who did show up. Several hundred arrests were made and Rexist leader Léon Degrelle was taken into custody when he tried to address his followers, though he was soon released.[45][51]
  • 510 tons of "Moscow gold" departed Cartagena for Odessa.[6]
  • At a meeting of Okinawan martial arts masters in Showa Kaikan Hall, Naha, Okinawa, it was decided to officially rename Te (or 'Tang Hand', 唐手道) the traditional systems of martial arts on the island, to Karate (or 'Empty Hand', 空手道), as well as introduce the Karategi and standardising rules and techniques in Karate.

Stalin
  • Joseph Stalin responded to rumors that he was dead by releasing a handwritten note that read: "I know from reports of the foreign press that I long ago abandoned this sinful world and moved into the other world. As one cannot doubt such foreign press dispatches unless he wants to be expelled from the list of civilized people, I request you to believe them and don't disturb me in the calm of the other world. With respect, J. Stalin."[52]
