SPAIN AND U.N.
Sir,—The cabled news to the effect that Franco Spain will be permitted to join the specialised agencies of the United Nations demonstrates in no uncertain manner the trend ot international developments. Franco's historic detestation of anything savouring of democracy and hi, avowed allegiance to Fascism and all it stands for justifies students of international intrigue in assuming that those members sponsoring his entry into the United Nations have visions of the possibilities of future “blue divisions" fighting for the “democratic way of life” and the right ot "selfdetermination" of those demanding it. Consistency is characterised on the part of hi, sponsors to the United Nations. as Franco's rise to di-tator could not have been possible without their unrequested assistance. Mood is thicker than water. A totalitarian representative could be usriul st United Nations assemblies to caneel out a distinctly possible new delegate from China. "Adversity makes strange bedfellows "—Yours, etc.. D.H.C. November 3. 1950
