REBUILDING ERA
THE STRUGGLE IN SPAIN RECOGNITION OF FRANCO WAR HAS BECOME SENSELESS (United Press Assn.—Elec. TeL Copyright) (Received Feb. 15, 3.15 p.m.) LONDON, Feb. li Referring to the Cabinet discussion on February 15 regarding the recognition of General Franco, the Times in a leader, hopes for a decision based on the facts. It adds that recogntion should be accorded whenever General Franco's authority is deemed sufficient. He does not posses Madrid, but this need not be a condition of recognition, because otherwise desperate resistance by the Republicans might be encouraged. General Franco’s policy is Spain for the Spaniards. It is important to appoint to Spain at an appropriate time a British Ambassador of the highest character, in order to ensure worthy representation in the era of reconstruction. It is useless to send arms to Spain when heaps of arms have been abandoned. The cessation of bloodshed is the paramount need. The war has become senseless, and It Is time to close the chapter of heroism and crime and begin rebuilding. The only visible master-builder Is General Franco.
