Franco Spain Banned
From Conference on
Control Of Tangier

Spain will be excluded from a
forthcoming conference to revise
arrangements for international
control of Tangier as long as
the Franco regime remains in
power, the State Department dis
closed today.
The department made public the
texts of American British-F French
Russian agreements reached at a
Paris conference in August for end
ing Spanish unilateral rule of Tan
gier. assumed by Franco in 1910, and
restoring international control on
a provisional basis.
These agreements provided for
inclusion of Spain in another con-
ference to meet within six months
to set up permanent regime, but
also included an British
French declaration stating:
The three delegations do not
think it desirable that Spain should
be invited to the conference as long
as the present government in Spain
continues in power; they suggest
that at the appropriate moment the
French government should consult
on the question of the conference
with the United States, Britain and
Soviet governments.
The Franco government is par
ticipating in the present provisional
international regime in Tangier
over Russian protest, the American,
British and French delegations at
Paris arguing that this does not
imply any friendship for Franco.
but under the circumstances is the
sole practicable means of taking
into account Spanish interests in
Tangier
Nations participating in the con-
troll arrangement include the United
States, Great Britain, France. Rus
sia. Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands,
Portugal and Sweden. Italy is to be
invited to share in the regime after
conclusion of the Italian peace
treaty.
The State Department said the
Committee of Control has elected a
Portuguese national, Vice Admiral
Luis Antonio de Magazines Correia,
as administrator of the zone.

Truman Defeat Seen
On Plea 10 Keep uses
Under Federal Control
BY The Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
President Truman today faced a
major battle and probable defeat in
the House over his insistence that
United States Employment Service
Offices be kept under Federal Con-
troll
Even Mr.. Truman's most ardent
supporters conceded privately that
they could not defeat an Appropria-
tions Committee proposal to turn
the USES over to the States as
quickly as possible.
But they planned to make an
issue of the proposal nonetheless.
Prospects are TO ra showdown vote
tomorrow.
Southerners to Back Bill.
A number of Southe'n Democrats
who often have joined Republicans
in overriding White House desires,
disclosed they would support the
Appropriations Committee amend
ment.
And Minority Leader Martin said
ne believes his forces will back 1t
almost to men.
The USES now is under the Labor
Department 1t formerly was op-
Grated by the States in conjunction
with the unemployment compensa-
tion program, but was placed under
Federal control early in the war to
route more manpower into war
plants.
In recommending that the en-
ployment Offices be returned to
State control, the Appropriations
Committee called for a 100000, ,000
grant to the States to handle the
job. 1t proposed that the trans
fer take place 80 days after en-
actment.
Senate Bill Has Passed.
The Senate already has voted tC
return the USES to the States. but
the House sidetracked the proposal
because it was part of a jobleSs aid
bill Objectionable to many House
members.
BY tacking the proposal onto a
$50, 600, 100000 appropriation can
collation. bill in the House, support
ers of the plan believe they can
prevent a White House veto.
In message to Congress Sep
tember g. Mr.. Truman urgently
recommended that the USES be
continued under Federal control at
least until June 30, l947.
The task of finding jobs for re-
turning veterans and displaced war
workers, the President, "is fully as
difficult as the mobilization of man
power for war" and ito make any
decided change in the machiner,
to handle this problem now would
cause unnecessary hardship to work
ers and veterans" and SLOW down
the entire process of reconversion. .
