Rivera called on the country to form
q "Gran Somaten" or militia pat.
termed closely after the Italian Fas-
clsti, to number 100000. With this or
ganization, responsible to him alone,
he proposes to protect the "estab-
lished interests" Of Spain. The In.
ternational Communists who have been
dourishlng In Barcelona and other
Spanish cities since the Russian agents
began active work there In 1918. have
realized that the game Is up for the
present at least, and have been fleeing
from the country. Many Of their lead.
ers were caught and locked up last
week. In pursuance Of the plan for
a vigorous campaign against the Moor
ish rebels the Spanish feet on Wednes-
day began to lombard the hills above
Alhucemas bay with gas shells, to
clear the way for the landing Of
large expeditlonary force. General
Aizpuru, the new commander in chief
In Morocco. started to organize an Of
fenslve on the western flank.
The Spaniards feel It necessary to
demonstrate their ability to govern
the Morocco zone at once, because In
a few days the Tangier conference In
London will open. when Spain will de-
mand permission to rule the Tangier
zone. The United States is Interested
In that conference and has notified
Great Britain, France and Spain that
1t will not accept any settlement Of
the future control Of Tangier which
hinders the establishment there Of
American marine coaling and oiling
bases. An interesting story from
Madrid says the old Spanish govern
ment was conducting negotiations with
England by which Gibraltar was to be
traded by Great Britain for the valu-
able harbors of TangIer, Ceuta and
Melllla and that news Of this reached
the military leaders Of Spain and has.
tened the revolt.
ITO COMPLETE the record Of the
i dlctators, 1t may be said that Pre-
mier Mussollni Of Italy is sitting
pretty" in his disputes and negotia-
tions with Greece, Jugo-Slavia and and
the League Of Nations. The Greek
government has paid the "moral rep
arations" for the Janina murders by
apologizing for them, saluting the flags
Of Italy, FraI e and England, and at
tending sG,Tmn requiem mass In
the Catholic cathedral Of Athens for
the slain Italian officers. Diplomatic
negotiations with the Serbs concern
ing Flume are said to be progressing
amlcably. but the government Of that
so-called Independent state resigned
the other day and Mussollni promptly
appointed General GIardini, third In
In command Of the italian army, a.
military governor. He gave assurance
that this did not affect the status Of
Fiume, but It served to increase the
fear that he meant to annex that city.
In the sessions Of the League Of Ma
tions there were further harsh criti-
cisms Of the leagues inaction In the
matter Of the occupation Of Corfu, e.
pecially by Hjalmar Brantlng. In re-
ply the Italian delegate. Signor Salan-
dra, defended the seizure Of the H.
land and expressed the hope that the
dispute between Italy and Greece. now
on the way to final settlerent. would
not be reopened. He then delivered
another severe blow to the authority
Of the league, declaring that the COW
enant was mot supreme international
Law. but only part Of fundamental
legislation for regulating International
conduct.
