The fact that Sumner is allowed to

BY HELEN LOMBARD.

The attitude of Senor Juan de
Cardenas, Spains Ambassador to
the United States, has been one of
correct neutrality with the accent on
the friendly side Though Senior
Cardenas has the reputation of hav-
ing the most inscrutable counten-
ance of any member of the diplo-
matte corps he was distinctly cordial
when he delivered Generalissimo
Francisco Frances message to the
State Department.
Senior Cardenas in delivering the
message was, of course, merely car
rying out the orders of his govern
ment. He is not necessarily aware
of all that may be developing in
Madrid. 1t is assumed here, how
ever, that Franco was perfectly sin
cere in expressing neutral position
toward the penetration of the Allies
in North Africa, and it is felt that
Cardenas believed the message he
was delivering to be exact.

Spain are completely dumbfounded
at the controversy which is raging
around Admiral Darlan. They point
out that Algeria and Morocco have

lan's contribution. The fact that the
inscription on the platter arouses
the suspicious of some political
groups is for the moment unimpor-
