SPANISH TRUCULENCE

[ATTACK ON U.S. “IMPERIALISM” I The Spanish press advised South ; American nations to beware of imperialistic manoeuvres” i during the Pan-American Confer- ] ence at Havana, states the Christian j Science Monitor. | Failure of the Conference was a ! foiegone conclusion, in the opinion

| of most newspapers. 1 The newspaper Pueblo asked: I “What will the United States—until j recently the most powerful economic | unit—do when the world’s economic ! order is revolutionised and the new ! distribution of raw materials organ- | ised and the gold standard of Jew--1 ish bankers substituted by the labour standard of the military proletarian I countries? | “What link is there between the l English of South Carolina and the Irishman of New York except the Constitution and dollars? The Constitution already is feeble and golc is threatened by the new economic order.” The newspaper Informacionej clamoured for Argentina to occupj the British Falkland Islands in the ! far South Atlantic Ocean. 1 It pointed out Britain “pursued bj ■ j Germany,” might cast off the Islandj j and the United States might gei j them. Argentina never has relinquished ! its claim to the Falklands.
