ENTER SPAIN
ATTACKS ON VICHY
(United Press Association—Copyright.) (Rec. 1.30 p.m.) LONDON, Sept. 24. The Spanish Press lias intensified its attacks on the Vichy Government, declaring it is unable to control its North African empire and hinting that Spain should step in because it is “called on to impose security both from the geographical and spiritual viewpoints.” The British authorities regard suspiciously Spanish reports concerning North Africa. The Spanish News Agency says fresh reports from French Morocco show that support.for General de Gaulle is increasing daily and is likely to be overwhelming sooner than expected. General Nogues’s loyalty to Marshal Retain is doubtful, particularly in view of the fact that air force units are allowed sufficient liberty for many units to fly to Gibraltar to join Britain.
