LANCE Calls On Spanish
People To Overthrow
Franco Regime

NEW YORK, April 17-P)-Po-
land Wednesday demanded that the
United Nations break diplomatic
relations with the Franco govern
ment of Spain.
In lengthy indictment of the

on the Spanish people themselves
to overthrow the Franco regime.
Threat To Peace
He accused Franco of being a
threat to peace and Of harborirg
German scientists, some Of whom,
he said, might be working on
atomic energy.
After marshalling his charges
against Spain, LANCE proposed that
the Security Council adopt the
following resolution.
International Friction
1.-THE Security council declares
that the existence and activities
of the Franco regime in Spain
have lead to international friction
and endangered international peace
and security.
SIN accordance with the authori-
ty vested in it under articles 80
and Al of the charter, the Security
council calls upon all members
of tho Tinted Nations who m ain
tain diplomatic relations with the
Franco government to sever such
relations Immediately.
THE Security council expresses
its deep sympathy to the Spanish
people. 1t hopes and expects that
the people of Spain will regain the
freedom of which they have been
deprived with the aid and con-
trivance of Fascist Italy and Nazi
Germany. The Security council is
convinced that the day will come
soon when it will be able to well
come the Spanish nation into the
community of the United Nations.
Lange demanded that the council
act for the following reasons:

been put into power with the sup
