WILLIAM H. LANDER
UNITED Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

MADRID. Sept. %. (U.H-The
country S chief topic of discussion
today was the meeting Of 10000 Re-
publican sympathizers which con-
demned dictatorship and monarchy
in Spain and called for resignation
Of King Alfonso NH.
The meeting was held in Madrid s
famous old bull ring yesterday. Po-
lice and civil guard forces were
modified and machine guns were
III evidence but not necessary. Ora
tors addressed delegations from all
of Spain, many of them dressed in
their regional costumes.
Spain S troubles since the dicta-
torShip of Primo De Rivera was es-
tablishcd in 1928 were reviewed in
continual stream of oratory. The
present regime was charged with
being incapable, basing its rule
purely on force. Ateneo Manuel
Azana, president of Madrid, de-
clared that - the realization of the
republic is now inevitable, fatal, it
does not depend now upon our own
will. The monarchy committed sui
eide in September, 1923 (when the
Primo De Rivera dictatorship was
tablished). No one ese should be
blamed for its DEATH
Aleala Zamora, conservative Re-
publican leader and former minister
of war, compared the monarchy with
9 gambler near the end Of mis- re-
sources.
"The monarchy has PLAYED its
crown with the emotion of al un-
bridlGd gambler, he said. I'm or
der that the play may hc clean. all
that remains is for the crown to be
given up, thus avoiding bloodshed.
Sufficient blood has already been
charged to the crown s demands.
Since the disapDearance of the
crown is inevitable, it is execrable
to seek to preserve it.
The former minister of war de-
elared that it was the duty Of the
army to defend the nation, ''not to
Subiugate it. >
The plea thot Republican leaders
carry the people to the realization of
republic through revolution was
made by the Andalusian leader, Di-
ego Martinez Barrigs. Marcelino
Domingo said that revolution as
means of undermining Spanish insti
tutions was necessary to promote
maintain. consolidate. fertilize and
defend our ideals for transforming
the 18th century of Spain cf today
into European Spain of the goth
century.
