PRESS MESSAGES HELD UP
REPORTS OF SPANISH ARRESTS Received Friday, 11 a.m. LONDON, Nov. 7. The Spanish Director of PostTelegraph today released two Associated Press messages, held up on November 5 and 6, reporting the arrest of seventy opponents of General Franco, says the Associated Press' Madrid eorrespondent. The director explained that the first cable was not sent because it •'exaggerated," and would tend to give the idea abroad that a revoluoion was occurring in Spain. The je.cond cable, which told of the stoppage of the first, was not fransmitted because "it might be interpreted as a statement that a censorship had been reimposed, which was untrue." The director added that^ fpture messages would be transmltted.
