complications in Spain as an outcome

views between its reporters and a num-
Der of Spanish anarchists in which
the latter are quoted as declaring they
had no previous knowledge of the
crime which has just startled the

claimed that the assassination of the
Spanish premier was provoked by his
persecution of anarchists. One of the
latter, however, said:
TT had to come. We have been ex-
pecting it daily. We knew a high per-
son was going to be attacked, but it
might have been any other than Can
