Spain Will Decide Future
At Polls on June 21

MADRID, April "a QNSD
The Spanish electorate will go to
the polls on June 81 to choose its
future regime, it was announced
today by Provisional President
Alcala Zamora.
The general elections, in addi.
ton to electing a constituent
cOrteS, will determine once and
for all whether Spain remains a
republic or reverts to a mon
archy.
Republicans Strong
In announcing the date of elec-
tions, President zamora assured
the public that the provisional
government is determined to de-
fend the republic to the limit Of
its powers, but emphasized that it
regards itself merely as the trus-
tee of the republic for 60 days."
The government meanwhile re-
serves the right, he added, to
change any injuSticeS perpetrated
by the dictatorship, and to pre-
vent the army and clergy from in
terferring in politics.
The Constituent COrtez, once
it has been chosen, will have in
its hands the task of determining
the character of Spain'S future
government. Its first task will be
to draft a constitution, stubling

by the senate and were welcomed
to Boston at city hall by Mayor

no reason why such threats
should be made.

WAIT ALFONSO

PARIS, April "a GN.S0. L.
Funeral plans for the Infanta
Isabella, King Alfonso's aunt,
may be held in allegiance today
pending the exiled Spanish
monarch's return from London.
The aged infanta, most popular
member of the royal family, was
heart-broken by the turn of events
that drove the Bourbon dynasts
into exile. With realization that
death was near, she expressed a
wish that her body be not re-
turned to Spain until the mon
archy had been restored.
Although besought by the Re
publican government to remain
in Madrid, she insisted that she
must be allowed at the Kings
side. She followed the royal
family to Paris two days after
the revolution. She travelled
most of the way on a stretcher.
Despite her dying request, there
is a possibility that the body will
be taken to the Escorial Palace
in Madrid for burial alongside
other members of the Bourbon
line.

Link Mans Hanging
To Girls Death

SAN FRANCISCO, April "a
GN.S) The strange similarity
of the hanging of John Porcel-
lano near here and that of
Louise Teuber, II, at San Diego.
continued to occupy the atten-
ton of investigators today.
DR.. j. C. McGovern, San Mateo
coroner, announced he would go
to San Diego with the rope used
by Porcellano, a former San
Diegoan, to compare it with that
used by the slayer of Miss Teuber
The bits of skin under the girls
fingernailS also would be COM
pared with Porcellano's skin, DR..
McGovern said.
Meanwhile, Sheriff McGrath
was searching for the room of
Porcellano, who apparently killed
himself. 1t is hoped the mans
personal effects will throw some
further light on the mans strange
interest in SpiritualiSm.
