or in part strictly prohibited.
LONDON. May Sin the great
racket of Europe's international
politics. Spain has become the I'M
happy hunting ground OF gangster
nations.
They all expect a second great
war to come sooner or later. and
In Spain they are hunting military
and stretegic advantages. None OF
them wants to start a war, but
each fears the others, and like
eangsters prowling dim-lit streets
they seek in Spain better window
from which to shoot their respec-
tive enemies in the back.
France Her Only Ally
Soviet Russia has the best rea-
sons for fearing a victory Of in
sureent GeneraliSSino Francisco
Franco in Spain. She might have
to meet an attack some day by
Hitler Germany. Her only ally
bound to help her if Germany at
tacks is France.
But France, at best, is lukewarm
to the prospect of fighting Ger
many unless Germany attacks
France itself. Whether France
would keep her treaty with the
Soviets is a question which has
been debated in every chanceuery
since the treaty was signed.
But if Spain was Franco-FasciSt,
bound by ties Of interest as well
as gratitude to Germany and
italy, the prospect Of France COM
Ing to the aid of the Soviet Union
would be more d1sagreeanle than
ever to the French.
: Addition Of Spain to the great
Nazi-Fascist bloc would destroy
the already precarious balance Of
power between Germany and Italy
on the one hand and France and
Russia on the other. Possession by
Germany of Spain as a possible
wartime ally might be sufficient
to keep France from fulfilling her
pact with the Soviet Union.
Therefore the Soviet Union
sends airplanes, artillery, tanks,
machine guns, pilots and officers
to help Madrid.
Stains Kremlin is no more in
terested in the Spanish proletariat
than Trotsky's world revolution.
Spain for Stain is an outpost to
help defend the Soviet empire. It
is as important for him as the
forts along the Manchurin border.
Hitler's Germany has an equiv
alent contrary interest in Spain.
BY possession of sufficient in
fluence over Franco and Spain,
Germany could hope to keep
France from helping Russia
should war come between the Nazi
and Bolshevik realms.

Manero, who beat Harry Cooper yes
terday after being 4 down at the
twenty-seventh, was still not given an
even chance to beat the monotonously
perfect Shute.
The other match was something of
toss-up. McSpaden has been hot all
week and the question today was
whether he could extend his streak
through another 36-hole grind.
Tony's par 4 won No. l, where
Shute's approach was short and he
pitched on IS feet away. Manero fol-
lowed traps all the way to the second
green. He drove into sand, hit out into
another and exploded over the green
into third before he finally could get
on the carpet. Tony conceded Denny
there. They halved the third in

Tony's iron tee shot missed the short
fourth hole, and after knocking his
pitch clear over the green, he conceded
Denny a 5-foot putt for a deuce, to
send Shute up.
