through the formality today of opening and closing court. When Judge Inglis adjourned court last Wednesday, due to the illness of Shanahan, 1t was with the under standing that sessions would be re- stunned today. When he granted the continuance yesterday, it was with the understanding that the trial would proceed tomorrow. MT. Shan ahan's illness, stomach disorder which necessitated the taking of K rays during the weekend, has caused the cancellation of plans to proceed.
 Any move for severance of the Shanahan case. or any other case, from the remaining group on trial, will come from Special Prosecutor Alcorn. It will be made for the pur- pose of saving time.
 The trial is now 52 days old, hav- ing started November %, involving g men on charges of conspiracy to defraud the city of more than . million dollars.

HASTEN RECOGNITION

Washington, March 28. CUP)- Surrender of Madrid probably will hasten recognition of the Franco regime by the United States, it was believed today, although no imme- diate action was expected.
 The attitude of officials indicated they will study developments closely during the next few days, with the possibility that recognition may be granted soon if the Franco govern ment consolidates its Madrid vic- tory into successful coquests of the remainder of Spain and establishes a government which may be con- sidered, technically at least, repre- sentative of the majority of Spain.
 It was indicated that the decision probably will not be reached for sev- eral days, at least.

Alfonso Is Pleased
 Rome, aMrch 28. (UP)-Former King Alfonso of Spain, whose son Juan soon may be king. expressed joy today when informed of the fall of Madrid.
 A household spokesman issued the following statement on behalf of the former monarch:
 His Majesty King Alfonso is very pleased to hear of Madrid's sur render, which signifies that peace in Spain will soon be restored.
 His hope now IS that Madrid's fall will also result in the elimina- tion of all resistance to Franco's victorious troops on other fronts, thus sparing the people further loss of blood and suffering"
 Italian government circles were overjoyed by news of Madrid's fall. It was recalled that Premier Benito Mussolini in his speech on Sunday forecast the fall within a few days.
