Franco Spoin Conducts Drive
For Good Will With U. S., UN

| WASHINGTON — fNEA >—The Spanish Embassy in Washington to
nuw conducting an all-out social and propaganda drive to build
; up good will fur the government of Caudillo (Dictator) Generalissimo
i Francisco Paulino Hermenegildo Teodulo Franco. A New York public
relations Arm has been hired aitt special counsel has been retained
I in Washington for the Emba*<y office of cultural relations. The
i as ignment of both is to influence the right people towards greater
friendship for Franco Sp un.
For Spain wants back in. It wants in the North Atlantic Pact. It
' waste the coming United Natiot.s General Assembly session to with-
draw the resolution of December 1M0V censuring the present "un-
democratic" Spanish government. It wants resumption of full diplo-
matic relations with those countries that withdrew their ambassadors
from Madrid as a protest against Franco's government. Finally Spain
wants a loan—considerably more than the >25.000,000 obtained (ram
Chase National Bank in exchange lor gold deposits.
Spain may even want in on the Marshall Flan, though the Madrid
government has not admitted this as yet. The Spaniards are not
asking for full membership in the United Nations at this time, bevause
they know they can't get it. Russia will veto.
'PHIS new Spanish policy has been gradually taking shape since the
arrival in Washington lsst June of Ambassador-at-Large Jos*
Felix de Lequerica. The ambassador is not accredited to the Spanish
Embassy here in Washington. Officially, Spain has had no ambassador
in Washington since U. S Ambassador Norman Armour returned to
the U S, just before passage of the UN anti-Franco resolution. In
the interim the Spanish Embassy has been under Minister and Charge
d'Affatres Senor Don German Baraibar.
Ambassador Lequerica came to Washington officially as Inspector
of embassies foi the Spanish Foreign Office. His inspection has now
been going on for nine months, and there are no signs of his imminent
departure Instead he has been making mucho hay for Franco.
He is a charming go-getter with an amazing record. He was Span*
!?►) Ambassador at Vichy, France, early in the war, and he was not
exactly regarded ss a friend by the Allied diplomatic corps there.
He was levelled to Madrid as Allied victory loomed and did not again
become prominent in the Spanish government until IM7. when he
was made Ambassador-at-Large and Inspector of Embassies.
Entertainment at the Spanish Embassy —which had been something
of a diplomatic dog house, socially—immediately began to pick up.
The Embassy staff was enlarged The Spaniards wooed the Repub-
lican congressmen, hard But when Dewey washed out on them theie
was a quick shift arid Democruts began to be the honored guests.
The New York public relations Arm of Andrew Cahagan was re*
tamed to build up go-jd will for the Franco government and get It
a better press.
IN Washington, attorney Charles Patrick Clark was retained as ipe*
rial representative to the Embassy's cultural relations counsellor.
Senor Don Pablo Merry del Val. kin of the cardinal. Clark has reg-
istered with the Department of Justice under the Foreign Agents
Registration act, so everything is on the up and up. He has a tw^
year, ISO.OOO-a-year contract, beginning lust Feb. 1.
Clark has been busy as a bird dog In the Interests of his client, ever
since he was retained. He has talked to many congressmen and en-
tertained at many Wednesday evening soirees ut which the merits of
the Spanish cause have been explained He is permitted to invite up
to 20 guests to the Spanish Embassy for dinners. So far he soys lie
has met only one congressman hostile to improving diplomatic rela-
tions between the United States and Franco's government. Next

first -ion was horn and he immed-
iately tried to make sui* his first

His fir>t thought was a 20-year
endowment life insurance policy.
Hut because of war injuries, the
premium*, were beyond hirn. His
brother suggested that he plant 00
acres of submarginal land <>n his
farm in pines.
Mallard did, and so far has
11 feared II.iM.'i for hi> son'* edu-
cation, including a fihH prire
from the .South Carolina State
Commission of Forestry and the
riem>on College Extension serv-
ice for winning first prixe in a
thinning (harvesting) contest.
Hy the time his son is old enough
for college, he probably will have
*1,.">«* worth of additional pulp-
to harvest. When that thin-
ning is completed, he will still
have a regular -tand of tree* that
will grow into sawlogs.
"I wi«h I had planted 1,000
acres of pmes," Bullard said.

experienc«*d doctors, many of them
of the highest skills, are the "for
gotten men" of Europe's displaced
persons camps, accordmir to u sur-
vey made by the International Kef
ugee Organisation.
IRO said the proportion of doc-
tors to (he population of the camps
is one of the highest ill the world.
Countries which have clamored
for agricultural and industrial
workers among the Dl"s have
turned a deaf ear to plans to re-
settle medical men. The report
says that virtually no resettlement
of doctors has taken place, "al-
though people in many parta of the
world desperately need medical
cure" •

Nationalities of theifcx-tors mug**
from ttulgurians to I'krnniuns. At
least two are former holders of
Rockefeller medical fellowship*.
Another is the author of over 7i
medical publications.
An IRi) screening of the doctors
by a board of competent mMlical
men showed that Ho p. r cent of
them aie under (tit and >o |ier cent
under 45. Among I ho-,,- screened,
