Indicted with Nolan was Francis

said:

The unprecedented action Of

man, unless given vote of con.
fidence by the Republican Ma.
tional Committee, today raised the
issue of reorganizing completely
the party which went down to the
most crushing defeat in modern
American political history only
month ago.
Some Republicans here viewed
Hamilton's announcement as cer-
tain to provoke contest between
Governor Alfred M. Landon, tltu-
lar head of the party, and the
Young red-haired chairman for
control of the reorganization.
Some support was given this
view by Hamilton's announcement
that he felt it impossible for me
to continue in an official capacity
without an expression Of conf
dence from the body OF the COM
mittee."
Hamilton became Republican
chairman after the Cleveland con-
vention last June as the personal
choice of Governor Landon. the
G. O. P. nominee. Ordinarily he
would continue to serve four years
as Landon's representative in
charge of party machinery.
Now, however, the Republican
National Committee can retain
him as chairman as its choice
thereby relieving him of any re-
sponsibility to Landon.

TO ENTER,
HARD T0QUIT
CATALONIA
BY LEE DICKSON
Copyright. 1885. BY International
Nawa SerYical

PARIS, Dec. st is one thing
to get into red-ruled Catalonia
these days. 1t is quite another to
get out.
Newspaper correspondents wish
ing to go to Barcelona generally
are given "salvoconducto," or safe
conduct. Wording Of the order is
rather important:
"The Ambassador Of the Span
ish Republic in Paris las my
order read) requests Of the re-
public'S authorities and the mill
tians of the popular front every
facility for the entrance into,
circulation In and exit from
Spanish territory"
INTO SPAIN"
Such q pass got me into Spain
over the Carbere-P -Port-Bou frontier.
But once arrived in Barcelona,
the anarchist and Communist au-
thoritieS let me know that it was
valueleSS.
To leave Barcelona, one requires
no less than three viSaS or permits,
issued from three different gov
ernment buildings. No one OF
these viSas Is good without the
others, and all are issued by the
anarchist or Communist offices
Of their security" police.
It is virtually impossible for a
Spaniard to leave Barcelona.
There are many who-most Sc
cretly, Of course-offer thousands
of dollars for a foreign passport
and safe conduct out Of the coun-
try.
But If they are between 18 and
40 years of age, their cases are
hopeless. Red "Milicianos," heavily
armed, have taken up guard duty
within foreign consulateS, to be,
sure that no passports or other
Safe-conductS are issued to those
who do not warrant them.
This is perhaps unique in inter
national relations, and conSulS feel
that it is but little step further
to arrest persons within the con-
SulateS- hitherto considered for
eign and therefore inviolable ter
ritory.
Nationals Guarded
The American and other con-
sulates in Barcelona have installed
beds for safeguarding Of nationals
whose lives are in danger. Food
is brought them, and they are
prevented from venturing into
streets until they can be escorted
by armed guards to outgoing
motor caravans, planes, or ships.
One of the graveSt menaceS IN
anarchist Catalonia is the armed
youth. Another is the criminal
class, who feel they are enjoying
a new freedom and are prone to
settle private accounts"
The peoples tribunal almost
daily sentences to death those
found guilty of rightist activities.
The condemned are promptly exc
cuted in military fashion.
I was told 5000 executions al
ready have been carried out in
Barcelona alone. From time to
time bodies are found in lonely
fields or in the harbor. They are
taken to the morgue for identifi-
cation by relatives. Nobody ever
knows who did the killing. No
body wants to know. It would not
be quite healthy" to know.
