BERATED BY FRANCO
SPANISH REPUBLICANS PUBLIC SUPPORT CLAIMED (10 a.m.) MADRID, May 2. “Those Republicans who burned your churches, assaulted your womenfolk, and brought in the International Brigade to make the streets run blood now go about the world showing their moral level by hurling insults at Spain.” said General Franco in a speech from the balcony of the Albacete Town Hall. General Franco said the great crowds which welcomed him during his twoday trip through Murcia. Cartagena and AJbacete formed a real plebiscite of public opinion. “You, by your magnificent demonstrations, have given the best answer to these people who attempt to masquerade behind democratic phrases,” he added. “Here, indeed, is the source of my powers.”
