Spanish Government
Accused Of Supplying
German Submarines
By the Associated Press.

~ tiiS Aooo-bntGo ElcoSs
LONDON, Dec. 4-Charges that
the Spanish government had sup
piled German submarines in Span
ish waters, advised them Of move
ments Of Allied conveys and placed
bombs in British ships in Spanish
ports are made in open letters BY
Jose Maria Gil Robes circulating
in Spain, according to information
reaching London from inside that
country.
Gil Robes. former leader OF the
Federation of Rightist Parties, now
living in Portugal, was said to de-
mand in the letters that Generals
simo Francisco Franco resign and
that the monarchy be restored so
that Spain will not sit at the peace
table "on the bench of the con-
quered."
Gil Robes was quoted as writing
that the British had conclusive
proof" of the alleged submarine aid
and even possessed copies of official
communications between Spain and

mitted with the duplicity OF the

Restoration of the monarchy is the
only way for Spain to avoid ZAP
preaching catastrophe, Gil Robes
was represented as saying, on the
ground that it was ridiculous to
assume that the Allies would leave
the Franco regime in power once
Nazi-ism and Fascism are crushed.
Britain has never publicly &C
cused Spain of aiding Axis shipping
or harming British vessels, although
she has complained to Franco about
Ianti-British and anti-Allied actions.
Various reports from inside Spain
in recent months have told of a
growing monarchist movement

The Illinois Representative is a

big man, with a shock of unruly

an excellent campaigner. He is
no New Dealer-far from it, for
he has been a frequent critic of
the Roosevelt administration.
Despite the fact he halls from a
State which has been dubbed a
hot bed of isolationism, Mr.. Dirk
sen believes strongly in interna-
tlonal collaboration to maintain
world peace, after the war has
been Won. AS member of the
Republican Postwar Advisory
Council he helped to draft and
subscribes sincerely to the Mack
mac declaration for organization
OF the nations to keep the peace
in the future.
He was one of the Republicans
who supported the Lease-Lend
Act when that measure was be-
fore the House. He offered an
amendment, which was adopted.
providing that the measure could
be repealed by concurrent reso-
luton of the House and Senate.

were deemed necessary for the

This policy, Mr.. Dirksen said,

Elevator Operator Killed
In Fall Down Shaft

John Emmett Cooperrider. rs, of
81 Dupont street, Kensington, Md,
elevator operator at the National
Press Building, was killed last night
when he fell IL stories down an ele-
vator shaft.
Mr.. Cooperrider apparently STEP
ped into the open shaft thinking
an elevator was there, according
to Building Supt. w. F. Derrickson
AS Mr.. Derrickson tells it. this is
apparently what happened: The ele-
vator operator had carried a load
of freight up to the 18th floor.
When he stepped off this elevator,
the door closed behind him and Mr..
Cooperrider took another elevator
to the first floor, to obtain a screw
driver with which to pry open the
door of the elevator on the 18th
floor.
According to Mr.. Derrickson's re-
construction, Mr.. Cooperrider pried
open the wrong elevator door and
stepped down the open shaft.

Murder Case Dropped

Is Cured Of Insanity

CHICAGO. Dec. 4.-Paul Harrison

Hospital at Menard In 1892 after he
allegedly confessed four hammer
Sayings, was free today because of q
set OF strange legal circumstances.
Harrison, who was adjudged in
sane at the time of the Sayings and
therefore, could not be placed on
trial on murder charges, was re-
leased yesterday when Prosecutor
Gordon Nash moved to strike murder
charges with leave to reinstate them
II new evidence is found.
This action followed a recent find
ing by a jury in Judge Rudolph H.
Deserts court that Harrison is now
sane, and thus entitled to freedom
from mental hospital or to hear
ing on the murder charges. Since
he was adjudged insane at the time
OF the slayings, his alleged confess
sion then could not now be used as
evidence.
Mr.. Nash said the alleged confess
sion was the only evidence available
now. Hence he moved to strike the
charges. During his recent sanity

Activity Increasing,
French Expect Early
Invasion by Allies
BY the Associated Press.

MADRID. Dec. 4. Paris cor
respondents Of Madrid newspapers
reported today that France is being
swept by the conviction that an
Allied invasion is imminent.

dispatch to his newspaper cited
great movements of American and
British shipping. troop concentra-
lions and an increase Of observation

the belief.
rms and similar press dispatches
from Paris conceded with a reported
increase in German military activity
both along the Atlantic wall and in
the still incomplete defenses of the
mediterranean, from the Pyrenees
mountains north to Marseille and
east to the Italian border.

One of the main reasons behind
the new fear of invasion, the Paris
dispatches said. was the news of
decisions reached in Cairo by the

Germans and French, they added
were quick to note that the Chinese
were absent from the parley's most
important military sessions on No.

convinced many Frenchmen that

I'd Rather Be Riuht-

to Victor Emmanuel, that they
should cherish him so?
1t is said there will be disorder
in Italy if the King should 60.
That is a curious argument, for
there are disorders in Italy now;
there were fist fights at political
meeting in Naples only the other
day; and these anti-Victor Emman-
uel demonstrations arose; not be-
cause the King has gone, but be-
cause the King has not gone.
Immediately thereafter, Ameri-
can military authorities on the spot
were forced to issue a decree for
bidding meetings of more than five
persons for any cause. But we were
told that If the King stayed, there
would be civil order, arising from
that circumstance alone. That
magic has not worked; the King has
stayed, yet we find. we still need
military ukases and arrests and
penalties. We need and are using
the same apparatus of repression
which we feared we might need If
we did exactly the opposite of what
we are doing. We are always worry
ing about tomorrow's disorder. not
about today's.
Says King Should Go.
We are maintaining by force the
subtle policy which was going to
eliminate the need for force. Why
do we hang on to this royal left
over so? If the answer is that we
desire to have the people Of Italy
say whether they want Victor
Emmanuel or not, the precise an
swer to that answer is that we are
not letting them say it.
1t is right that Victor Emmanuel
should go, for when so great a mess
Is made as has been made of Italy,
some one must pay for it. This is
not merely an expression of venge-
fulness; 1t is a law Of life and of
politics. Why do We hang on to
this desolate specimen, quite as if
it were unthinkable for a king to
lose his seat? There comes a time.
and 1t has often happened, when
there Is almost physical need for
the lightning flash that will clear
the air. As for our dreary purpose

and again, that abdication is not a
radical measure; it is an ancient,
historic and conservative method
for reforming monarchy fallen on
evil days.
And so 1t is, for our British
cousins have made use of this more
than once, the last time being
scarcely seven years ago. The
British Premier who then made a
British King abdicate was no radi-
cal but the Tory Mr.. Baldwin, a
man whose conservatism went 80
far as to amount to catalepsy.
Edward VIII was made to abdi-
cate for a cause that must be de-
scribed as trif1ing in comparison
with the reasons which obtain in
Victor Emmanuels case. He merely
had proposed honest marriage with
a commoner, whereas Victor had
maintained an unholy alliance for
III years with the founder of
Fascism
Monarchy Defended.
Sforza proposes that Victor En-
manuel 60 and that a re-
gency be set up for his 6-year -old
grandson, the Prince Of Naples.
Sforza is therefore, in the pro-
foundest sense, a defender of the
monarchy, while his yipping Amer
lean critics are merely defenders
Of the King: they have assumed a
thin and narrow position, and why
so many good American republicans
should behave like clique of cav
alters, sworn to uphold the person

QOC come from our COIIlIIluIllSL
partner in arms, but from the
theories of our Frustrated enemies.
For the kinship of the extreme ad-
vocates of planning and control
with Fascism is vastly more clear
than their relationship to Com
munism.
Two statements of policy placed
side by side will illustrate this kin
ship. In 1888, the German Institute
of Business Research published q
statement of the National Socialist
theory of the relation of business
to the state.
Passage Is Cited.
The relevant passage in that
statement follows:
The basis for all governmental
intervention in business which has
been undertaken in Germany lies
in the National Socialist conception
of the relation between state and
business. According to the German
theory, business is subordinated to
the state. Business is no aim in
itself. Formerly, it was believed
that in business lay the fate of the
state and nation, for it was said
that business was of such great
Importance and so powerful that
| it controlled the state and de-
termined state policies. In the Ma
tional Socialist state the relation
between business and state is just
the contrary. Today the state or
state policy controls business"
| Compare this, word for word,
with the following by Sir Stafford
Grips, who represents the left
wing point of view in British poll
tics. This statement was made on
November 20, 1943, and was men,
toned in this column a week ago.
We want planned, organized
economy in our country that will
give every family all the necessaries
OF life and for that purpose we must
give our government the authority
to use all the controls that are
strictly necessary to achieve that
end"
Flexibility Sought.
Sir Stafford added, according to
a dispatch in the New York Times,
that with control of investment
and production planning Britain
should be able to achieve the kind
of fexibility that would be essential
to the support of her export trade
after the war-a fiexibility that
individual private industries could
not themselves attain"
Business thinking in this country
will, it is to be hoped, come to a
recognition that the real danger to
free enterprise is not in Commu-
nism, but in Fascism, and that the
controls of which Sir Stafford
speaks will not come from the right,
but from the so-called liberal" left.
In short, as the cid saying had it,
the Communist would take your cows
and the milk thereof. The Fascist
would permit You to be the Gus
todian and valet of your COWS, but
would take the milk The latter
procedure is much more intriguing
to those planners who have no
special skill with cows, but who
dearly love to distribute milk.
