Communist Rule Is Least Loved, Most Unpopular Of Forms TEMPERATURE TwfDty-Four Hours Ending Noon Today HIGH NiH)N 42 40 26 35 24 Herald barometer Readin Next Twenty-four Hour Forecast BAROMETER 28.8 FALLING Unsettled Weather Humidity U. S. And Spain Are Officially Friends Again WASHINGTON', D. today, the United States and Spain are officially friends again. The United States no longer will demand that the Spanish people boot Generalissir mo Francisco Franco out of office.

That is the New Year's worst news for the Kremlin, so far. Following a brief mid-day exchange of greetings with President Truman, at the White House, Jose Feliz Lequjerica became Spam's ambassador to the United States. The senate shortly will confirm nomination of Slanton Griffis to be our ambassador to Spain. Griffis is being transferred from Argentina. When he hangs his hat in our Madrid embassy, a four-year Moscow project to keep Spain forever out of the anti-Cornmu- nist western defense line will have moved far toward final collapse.

Moscow was supported in this maneuver, in 1946, by Europe's Socialist governments, who did not realize the Soviet Union was their real enemy. The United States did not realize that, either. The United States went part -way in the move to isolate Spain, and all the way in the effort to get Franco out of office. Under these pressures, the United Nations assembly in December, 1946, asked all UN members to withdraw their ambassadors or ministers from Spam. Ours already had come home by then.

Mosccw wanted to withdraw all diplomats, and to bar Spain from world trade, but we and the UN wouldn't go for that. Now the UN ban has been lifted, and ambassadors and ministers are returning to Madrid. the withdrawal vote in December, 1946. the threat of Communist aggression has spread darkly over Europe. General 'I)wight D.

Eisenhower is comb- jng the West for divisions fighting men. That makes Franco, and his tough countrymen, look a lot better today than in 1947. The States is re-arming at tremendous cost, and is urging Atlantic Pact allies to step up 'their own national defense ef- 'forts. That makes Franco look even better. His country is not a member of the Atlantic Pact.

But he has a big entrance fee. While General Ike was looking 'for divisions in France, dispatches from Madrid reported that Spain could give him twenty-two divisions if she were in the pact. Franco's divisions would need a lot of equipment. But they would be tough fighting officered by Spanish civil "war veterans. Ike surely could use them, and maybe he is interested.

Anyway, he has on his European staff an American expert on the Spanish army. He is Lieutenant Colonel Vincente Usero, formerly a foreign liaison officer for the National Defense Department. Ike evidently intends to learn about those Spanish divisions himself. None of this u-fll please the Kremlin--She new ambassadors and ministers. Franco's willing divisions, nor Usero.

the expert; with Ike. Imre Kovacs, Speaker, Tells Of Seeing River Danube Run Red. "Don't ever let the i a Creek or Allegany River run red with the blood of innocent people as the Danube Kovacs, native Hungarian, admonished interested listeners at the Civic Forum program," Tuesday night. Approximately 175 persons attended the lecture "Red Runs the Danube," in the Olean High School auditorium. 'Mr.

Kovacs told his audience that the first time he saw the Danube run red was when he was five years and he sat hidden in bushes on the banks of the river and saw a group of people stood with their backs to the river and shot. "The people of my native country cannot be called citizens, but are subjects," he said, "and picture of Red leaders dominate the home, church, offices and schools." "You people over here have the choice of being a citizen or subject," stated, "and although there are those in this country who are content to be told what to do, and then hold out their hand for their political reward, there are many more who are not willing that others tell them how to choose i public officers." KINGS AND QUEENS "If I had addressed you here tonight as 'Your Royal Highnesses' I would have been perfectly right, for you are all kings and queens capable of practicing the royal perogative of appointing your public servants and molding the fate of the nation." Every American has voted, he reminded the audience, stating that those who have gone to the poles have voted for Democracy and those who have remained away have voted against it. The Communist rule is one of the least loved and most unpopular forms of rule, he explained, as to keep its power it must use one out of every six persons as an informer or spy and resort to terrorism. Mr. Kovacs contrasted this with the fact that in this community we have about one policeman to every 2,000 persons to protect the majority from the minority instead of enforcing the will of the minority on the majority.

There is a great deal of yearning, waiting and hope over there, he stated, and although the Americans give generously of food it is no good when there are souls famished and hearts yearning for freedom. We cannot build a wall high enough to shut ourselves away from the rest of the world, he pointed out, reminding present that the last time we tried to build a wall around our selves it took the lives of 365,000 American men to try to plug the holes in that wall. BASIC STANDARDS the sanctity of the individual and the worth of life are the basic standards of our way of living, we ought to clarify our aims again. "We must find some way of telling the people under Russian rule of the aims of the United Nations, and teach them that we do not want to destroy them, but rather that we wish to liberate them. Truth is more powerful than bombs, and if we lose sight of the American ideals, weapons will avail us nothing.

"The time has come to pray together for peace, binding together our faiths and convictions and to fight a battle with paper bullets, for you can never tell when we might tilt the balance of power and make the Danube run less Mr. Kovacs was introduced by Herbert L. Sackett, former principal of Olean High School. Following his lecture a question and answer period u-as conducted. A reception was held in the high school cafeteria and refreshments were in charge of Mrs.

Delancey F. Eckert, assisted by Mrs. William N. Davis. Mrs.

William M- Branch and Mrs. William C. GoodlcO. The final lecture of the season will be held February 13 William Hazleil Upson will be the speaker. FLY-fT-JHCHT JOUfT--The hudm C-ltt was converted into fcr airmen an adraxsd Air Fww Korw.
