Received Sunday, 7 p.m. LONDON, Dec. 14. Franco has issuod a coinniuni(pic stating that most incmliers of Unitcil Xatious will soon rcgrct the Cleneral Assembly 's decision on Spaiu. Reuter's Aladrid corresiiondent says the ('oniniuni(|ue xvas issued after a Cabinet meeting. It described I'no's decision as a " gross infringement of the procepts oL its own basie charter aiul constituting an unt'ortunate pre codent for relations between peoples". The c-oinniuTiique added that Uno 's rcsohitious, while lacking prac-tical efficacy, were a bad syinbol of Ihe scarceiy pacilic spirit prevailing iu tlm new-boru organisation. Spanish feelings have been shown in a way leaving no rooin for doubt and have ' saved the government from the need of giving a furtlier e-X]ilanation. The Associated 1'ress version usos the words "terrible precedent instead of "unt'ortunate" and describes tho Spanish feelings as "exquisite sensitivity ". Tlie Associated Press corres])onclent at Aradrid says ofticial and business reaction to the ITio resolution to with draw ambassadors and ministers from Spain, was one of relief that it failed to impose a diplomatie break or economic sanctions.
