By the Associated Press.

MADRID, Jan. 2.-Foreign Min
lister Ramon SerranO Suner declared
in a published interview yesterday
that Spain's hand was hurried in
taking over the internationallzed
zone of Tangier in Africa by the
excessive and misguided pretentionS"
of certain party which had not
comprehended the reality" of the
situation in Europe.
The party" was not named, being
referred to only as mot one which
could logically have expected any
thing in Tangier, regardless of what
may be the final result of the war "
This party, he said, wanted others
to share with Spain in the defense
of Tangier."
Spanish rule over the 225-Square-
mile area of Tangier, commanding
the approach to the Strait of Gibral-
tar from the Atlantic, became abso-
Lutte on November When Spain
ordered dissolution of the Four
Power Control Commission, the
legislative Assembly and the Inter

then she had shared international
control with Britain, France and
Italy.
