Monarchist Group Is
In Control With
Aznar Al Head
REVOLUTION
Believed Averted For Time
Being At Least, Capital
IL Tranquil Today
ny CLARENCE DUBOsE

MADRID, Feb. l8-tH= After
four days or political turmoil and
uncertainty, Spain today had a
new monarchist cabinet, avoiding
revolution on the me hand and
dictatorship on the other.
Either OF those possibilities had
seemed imminent, but now It Is
believed that the tense atmosphere
OF the past week will be cleared
and that the situation Is once more
tranquil, at least for the time ne-
ing. ".
The fundamental causes Of all
the trouble Of the past year still
exist. however. and opposition TO
the monarchy probably will be re-
neWed when the time IL ripe.
Admiral Juan Bautista Aznar,
the Oldest ranking officer In the
Spanish navy and generally re-
garded as a neutral in politics, sue
ceeded where jose Sanchez Guerra
and Melquiades Alvarez had failed.
This afternoon he brought a new
cabinet to the royal palace and
its members we're sworn in before
the king.
The new government marked a
right about face in the attitude OF
King Alfonso, who in his selection
Monday OF Sanchez Guerra as
premier designate gave tacit con-
sent to a constitutional convention
which would have shorn the throne
Of much Of its power and perhaps
changed the form Of the Spanish
government altogether.
The new government, while its
program has not been announced.
probably will seek constitutional
revision but to a limited degree.
Like its predecessor. the ministry
Of General Berenguer. who resign
cd Saturday, an attempt will be
made TO restore parliamentary gov
eminent NJ the earliest possible
time.
Today's development, which crit
les Of the king called working ouc
OF another transitory cabinet. found
the capital quiet. Troops we're held
in their barracks. but the streets
we're heavily patrolled by police
who imposed a state Of virtual
martial law on the city. Suspension
OF constitutional guarantees con-
tinues and the censorship was
maintained.
The atmosphere was much less
tense than yesterday when there
seemed imminent danger OF n
other revolution or coup d'etat TO
reestablish a military dictatorship.
Fear or a general strike called by
the socialists was passing. Political
prisoners who probably would have
been freed II Sanchez Guerra had
worked out his government now
are expected TO stay in jail.
