WANTS TO TIGHT IN SPAIN. : (Special.—By Atr Mail.) LONDON, September 12. Mr. Ben Tillett, the 76-years-old trades union leader, proposes to fly to Spain in two weeks' time to help the Spanish.Government. "Fifty years ago I met Caballero, head of the present Spanish Government, and we worked together for trades unionism in Spain," he° said this week. "It is patterned on our English idea. Now that Caballero has his back against the wall I must help him: I will fight with anything against Fascist—guns; sticks, bombs—anything. My constitution will not stand joining the ranks on the march, but I shall take up a rifle if necessary."
