He remesters one which said more or lese = "Pamine and Theft, that is the Falange®, There appeared another very like it, bat he does not know what it gaid becauge they rubbed it out at once. He says the Requetes also accused the Palang&sta of being cowardly aesassins who are ‘only userul for doing mass assagainations (“dar Paseos®)._ The.people take a sympathetic view of these actions of the Requetes. Ta the queuéa people swanaomyx speak against the Government and the Falange. There are many prisoners, When the *nationalists® first entered Santander they killed people in thousands. The Palangists held many “paseos®. They went on killing, only less than at- first. The prisonera died of. their harsh treatment, many were tubercular. He doea not ‘now if they give them organised assistance. Probably relaticna and friends. He does not «<now of any activity of the party, or the J.S.U. The Reds are very carefuily watched. The only enes who do. anything are the R,quetes. In general cur informant does nct xnow any of our organisations because he was very young when the war began.

Althourh a workman by profession he always worked with his relating, almoat alvaye as.fcrenan, or at least as manager. He has no political point of view nor are his class feelings very developed. He has never belonged to any syndicate. after the war Was over he worked in Blib@ ina wire factory where there were about a thousand workeen. He final‘y left work in order to devote himself to the Black Market because, scording: to hin, it was impossible to live on what he only ones with which he was con-ected. For this reason his report is rather incomplete, and in some cases lacks objectivity. He is rather reserved, ATTITUDE OF THE SPANIARDS TOWARDS THS ANTI-NITLER WAR, — In the graphic words of the informant, 90% of Spaniards are partiaans of Ingland. . The workers, peasants, petit-buurgecis, capitalists, and some of the clergy, (later he told us the majority of the Basque cures) are cn the aided England, although in a passive way, and against Germany and the Palange. fhe general opinion which is expressed in eccnversations between groups of friends, and lately also in the street, is that the defeat of Germany Le ine evitable, due, ascording to our informant, to the fact that the Allies have more economic resources end more primsry materiels. It ie thought that the United §tates will be a very important factor in ther@disation of victorr, flee the defeats euffered by Germany on the Bastern front contribate to gtreaging this opinion. In Spain everyones ia tired of the war, and no ene wishes Spain to take part in it. There people are in a real panic on this score. Olr informant thinks that if France should. decide to ficht, in viewa! the terreriat nature of the Regime, the people would have to obey. Later in another conversation he said that there were people who, in that case, would hide in the mountai ne, The defeats suffered by Ggrmany on the Zastern front were well known there ard contributed to increase the people's confidenee. Hes ays that they gaid there that, in spite of their resistance, it was obvious that the Russi ans were not sufficiently prepared to face a power like Germanys ; The entry of the United States into the war was received with ‘oy by the people who interpreted it a3 an event destined to shorten the war, of which they are all very tired over there, . The Ratification of the Anglo-Rusaian Pact and the Amorican-Russian agreezant is known there, althcugh the range and content of the pact and the agreamtnt were not imown.
