NEW STATE MOVE
GAINING IN SPAIN.
Hundreds Of Leaders Ready
to Unite Behind "Na-
ti0naI Bloc"

Copyright. 1894. by the Associated Press
MADRID, December 5.-A summons
for a united front" of monarchists
and rightists toward the establishment
of cooperative state" will be made
within the next two days, it was dis
closed today.
Leaders Of the movement for the
new state declared hundreds Of rank
ing personalities in the political, in
tellectual and financial life of Spain,
already have answered the call.
A proclamation, which is to be dis
tributed throughout Spain, says the
plan is based on the creation of a
Spanish union for the defense Of ma
tional unity and the reconstruction Of
the state on new foundations devel-
Oped from old traditions wherever pos
sible.
National Bloc" Name.
The name has been selected Off
cially as the national bloc" and is
regarded by some as the most power
full front toward the change in the
Spanish government since establish
ment of the republic in 1881.
Its organizers point out that ma
tional unity must be maintained at all
costs, which implies implacable oppo-
Sition to an autonomous state such as
Catalonia The organization will
strive to protect Spain from the dan
gers Of its present disorganization"
The new state would be composed of
a centralized authority with the CO.
operation of the trade and labor guilds
and professional organizations from
the entire Nation.
Single Executive Plan.
Power would be invested "in a
single executive assisted by national
council representing the major sectors
of Spanish life" The document,
however, fails to state whether the
chief executive would be a king, an
elected leader or the Fascist type of
chieftain.
The leaders asserted the executive
might be king, but insisted the move
ment would have no Fascist features,
being purely Spanish and unrelated to
the Italian theory of government.
One of the most vital points in the
proclamation is a section urging the
workers to join the movement under
plan of cooperation with the gov
ernment through their guilds.
The original plan eliminates the
Parliament, displacing it by a net
work of guilds and regional councils
acting in an advisory capacity to the
central council and the chief execu-
tive.

These observers say that quite an
important proportion of the inhabit-
ants would like to see continuation
of the present status of the Saar. under
the administration Of the League
of Nations Not that they don't feel
strongly for the Fatherland; quite the
contrary But, the anti-Hitler propa-
ganda has made strong inroadS in the
minds of the miners and in business
circles in the Saar and these people
are scared that they will be less
comfortable under the administra-
ton of Berlin than under that OF
Geneva.
Furthermore there is the question of
their obligations under the govern
ment of the third Reich as COM
pared with their obligations under the
Leagues mandate.
At present the Saar male popula-
ton does not need to serve in any
army. If they are returned to Ger
many they will have to perform their
military service, if not right away,
probably in the near future when
the Reich breaks officially the last ties
of the Versailles treaty. Furthermore,
the taxes are at present less heavy
than they will be under the German
administration.
Not only Wil they haze to bear
share of the burden of fedUier
taxation for the Uarious social
expenses for the Reich, but they
uiu haze to chip in for the in
creased expenditure TOR Germany's
national defense. And that is
bound to increase substantially
during the merit te1D years.
1t is for these reasons that some
of the people of the Saar would have
liked to remain under the Leagues
mandate during this transitory period
when ornaments are increasing.
X Nxx
But neither the League of Nations
nor France wanted to take chance
at having trouble with Germany be-
cause of the Saar plebiscite. It was
known all over Europe that Hitler
was not blufing when he said that
the Saar must be returned to Germany
and nobody doubted that the gov
ernment of the Reich was willing to
go to the limit in order to get that
province back. Hence, regardless Of
the feelings and the wishes of the
population the Saar will become once
more an integral part of Germany
within the next few weeks.

The common interests Of French
and German steel industrialists have
also helped considerably the settle
ment of this irksome problem.
Two powerful French industrial
groups were fighting each other to
obtain complete control over the Saar
coal mines, the steel manufacturers
grouped under the name of the Comite
des Forges and the Laurient-Dietrich
companies.
The latter group is affiliated in
Germany with the Ehrart and
Schmert of Berlin, while the former
group is closely connected with the
Roechling interests.

WAR VOTE RIGHT.
People Should Express Will
as on Other Issues,
He Says.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, December s.
The people should vote on war as they
do on other governmental actions
which affect their welfare, United
States Senator Robert M. La Toilette
of Wisconsin thinks.
La Toilette, speaking here last night.
advocated a constitutional amendment
declaration Of war.
THE people of this country have
the right to say whether they'll be in
volved in war" he said.
The Senator said he was opposed
to the sales tax both in theory and
practice" He said sales tax placed
the heaviest tax on those with the
least ability to pay.
The Senator also advocated Govern
ment ownership of public utilities and
of any necessary munition plants.
Orthodox business men, financiers,
economists and politicians said they
could cure this economic crisis by their
own, old methods" La Toilette said.
For four years previous to March,
1888, they had the opportunity to do
so, and they brought us to the brink
of economic disaster.
Society cannot endure on the basis
Of buying power concentrated in the
hands of the few. We have solved the
problem of mass production, and mass
buying power is essential. We must
lift the standard of living and increase
buying power to keep step with our
capacity to produce"

paper story mot carried by the ASso-
Ciated Press which asserted that i'm

committee we're missing from the files
Of the du Pont and other companies.
Du Pont stood erect. the paper in
one hand, waving pipe at the COM
mittee with the other, and in a voice
taut with indignation asserted:

like to disabuse it. We have thrown

Hitler's nerves have been shattered
out rest. Since 1920, Der Fuehrer has
been living on his nerves and his close
associates say "his nerves have gone
back on him" Considering the amount
Of trouble still facing the third Reich,
this state of Hitler's is not surprising
The dictator Of Germany lives in
the chancellor's palace in Berlin.
In the room adjoining his sleeping
quarters his personal aide keeps
guard every night. In room beyond
that a dozen hand-picked Storm
troopers. heavily armed. are always
on duty. The palace itself is heavily
guarded and extraordinary precau-
tions are taken to prevent any unau-
thorized person from approaching the
"All Highest"
Not SO long ago Hitler was reckless
in the face of danger. Now. sheltered
behind bayonets, he knows what is
going on in the country only by what
Goering, Goebbels and Hess chose to
tell him.
Lloyd George. the war premier Of
England, has given up active politics
for hog raising. He finds the latter
occupation more congenial but, un-
fortunately, more costly, too.
In order to make up his losses he
wrote his war memoirs, which have
proved the most lucrative thing he
has ever done. So far no less than
100000 copies, which are sold at IS
each, have been purchased In England
and in America. This work is now
being translated in 40 languages. Rus
sia has already paid $4,000 for the
publishing rights. Big sums are ex-
pected from the Argentine, France,
Italy and Germany. The newspaper
serial rights have been sold in Britain,
the Dominions and America for $l75,-
600. The war memoirs are likely to
yield the former chief of the British
Liberal party something like $500. 900.
