By the Associated Press.
AUSTIN, Tex, Aug. 1s.-Chair-

Relations Committee tonight told a
long-delayed Jefferson Day dinner
Of Texas Democrats that the "su-

is to lead the world away from war.
The Senator called on the United
Nations to work side by side to save
millions of lives and permit the
peoples of the earth to rebuild their
tortured lands and shattered homes.
I'VE leagued our armed might for
war;" Senator Connally said. Nov
let us league our moral and material
might for peace. -" Let us create
a temple of law and reason and
justice and peace to serve the peoples
Of the world"
I'VE must maintain adequate ma
tional defense, he said. I'VE must
keep our powder dry. We must have
the mightiest Navy that ever sailed
the seas. - I shall not vote to
sink it. Science has given us the
atomic bomb-an instrument whose
power astounds our intellect and
leaps beyond reach of our magma
ton. Our national defense and
interest in peace require that we

hostilities to Washington hotels

larger now.
ITS reconversion, I guess" Her.
bert c. Blunck, Statler Hotel man
ager, said. Our reservation list OF
businessmen coming here next week
is longer than ever"
The Willard Hotel has adopted
take-life -as-it-comes attitude. The
managers office agrees that even
more people probably will be stream
ing here to settle peace problems
But the staff prefers not to dwell
on the prospect.
The Mayflower, Shoreham anG
Wardman Park Hotels reported the
same crowds and piles of letters ask
ing for advance reservations.
"Peace-when it comes to the no.

MADRID, Aug. ls.-Since an
nouncement OF the Potsdam decision
to bar Generalissimo Francisco
frances Spain from the United Ma
tions, hundreds Of editorials in the
country's controlled press have as
serted that ousting OF the Falange
and Franco would bring chaos and
communism to Spain.
The newspapers also declared
Frances attitude during the war
aided the United Nations more than
it did the Axis.
There has been notable increase
in republican underground activity
since the denunciation Of Frances
regime by the Big Three at Potsdam.
Monarchist elements still seem weak
and divided.
The interest Of Prince Don Juan,
exiled pretender to the Spanish
throne, In having elections in Spain
and the increased activity of the
Leftist underground appear to have
frightened many wavering monarch
lists back into Frances fold. While
these monarchists have no love for
Franco. they express fear OF an up-
set q the status quo.
