Franco Spikes Nazis'
Demand for Right
To Fly Over Spain
Swift Diplomatic Stroke
By Germans in Berlin
And Madrid FuiIs
Ey the Associated Press.

bN lIt foSOSldltu
NEW YORK. March II. - Re
liable informants said last night
that Generalissimo Francisco Fran
co had abruptly turned down Ger
man demand for facilities to fly mil
itary planes across Spain to Africa.
These informants said we'll
planned swift diplomatic maneu-
yer" by Nazi Foreign Minister Joa-
chin Won Ribbentrop thus collapsed,
and as result Gen. Espinosa de los
Monteros, Spanish Ambassador to
Berlin, lost his job.
This is the story:
Won Ribbentrop, it was said, sum-
moned the Spanish Ambassador to
the Berlin Foreign ONCE and read
to him rapidly a document contain
ing German proposals for Spanish
cooperation"
Envoy Saw Serrano Suner.
Most important of these was a de-
mand for Spanish territorial facili-
ties to fly military planes to Africa.
About the same time, last nights
inforn,ants continued, German Am
basssdor Baron Eberhard Won Stroll
rer called upon the Spanish foreign
minister, Ramon Serrano Suner, in
Madrid "to discuss details for carry
ing out the agreement" which, Won
Strohrer claimed, already had been
reached in Berlin.
Serrano Suner was taken by sur
prise. He declared he had no knowl-
edge of the agreement and had not
even heard of Won Ribbentrop see
ing the Spanish Ambassador to Ber-
lin on the subject.
Later, Gen. Franco granted an au-
dience to Won Strohrer at his Off
cial residence, the Pardo Palace
Strohrer, it was said, repeated the
German proposals.
Gen. Franco, informed persons
asserted, turned them down as in
consistent with the honor of Spain"
Will Replace Ambassador.
Los Monteros, it appeared, had
merely made nom commital &C
acknowledgement of Won Ribbentrop's
proposals when he called at the
Wilhelmstrasse and, before he had
a chance to report to Madrid. Won
Strohrer was carrying out his end
of the German maneuver at the
Spanish Foreign Office.
The Spanish Ambassador now will
be replaced by former Minister to
Switzerland Barcenas, it was under
stood
The same sources which related
this story said there had been in
creasing pressure on Spain recently
for axis "free passage" to Africa.

Army Engineers Rush
Alaskan Air Fields
Amid Pacific Tension
Bases Progress Rapidly
Despite Bitter Cold
And Labor Shortage

BY the Associated Press.
With an eve to lowering war
clouds in the Pacific, the War De-
partment reported today that Army
engineers were conquering forml-
dable obstacles IN Alaska to speed
the completion Of new air fields and
other defense outposts
Despite temperatures as low as
so degrees below zero, inadequate
transportation. shortage of labor and
other difficulties work is being
rushed on more than II flying fields
and larger bases.

which extend across the North Pa

are being built on Army selected
sites by the Civil Aeronautics Ad-
ministration as a part of the de-
fenses of the Nays new ma jor base

Problems Detailed.
Announcing that construction
goes on at a rapid pace" the War

problems which it was asserted the
engineers were mastering.

sent serious hazards to shipping and
flying.
At Fairbanks, where the air forces
are conducting weather tests
in plane operations, Workmen must
race darkness at top speed as day
light at times lasts only three hours.
At one unidentified site the soil
was said to be permanently frozen
down to bed rock, and military
structures in effect are being put
up on ice. In the colder areas
almost all construction materials
must be thaWed out. In others, a
soft vegetable growth called muskeg,
which sometimes attains a depth Of
IS feet, must be removed before air.

Many Obstacles Met.
Vast distances, a heavy rainfall
in some sections. the necessity of
importing virtually all materials and
laborers were listed as other OBJ
stacles.

airfelds and the Fairbanks base. the
Army has a composite group OF pur-
suit and medium and heavy bonn
