 "The observant citizen has always been bothered by the question of how the authority and control nec- essary to the state in Socialism can be reconciled with the funda- mental principles of freedom" Lan- don said. "It will now be demon- strated (by Attlee's government in practice instead of in theory"
 Americans should watch this demonstration, Landon said, bear ing in mind a fundamental differ ence between American and British labor unions.

 N Revolution F0reseen
 Such a political meeting of gen. erals is in itself a step in the direc- ton of revolutionary action,' the dispatch said. Since then, the Potsdam declaration may well have convinced even the most hesitant : among them of the urgent need to remove Generalissimo Franco from the power to which they themselves elevated him."
 Restoration of the Spanish mon- archy still would seem the most ac- ceptable way out to the Spanish army, church and wealthy land owners. the dispatch said. 2 A United Press dispatch from Madrid said the Spanish press yes terday angrily retorted to the Pots- dams declarations that Spain was unworthy of membership in world organization.
 Sunday newspapers in Madrid charged the denunciation was rarbitrary and unjust" and praised an article in the New York Journal American by Westbrook Pegler as- serting that Spain had a rlgnt to determine her own destiny.
