Diplomat Asserts
Former Ambassador Ham
mond Says He Will Re
establish Law and Order
BY N. C. W. C. NEWS SERVICE
JERSEY . CITY, N. J.— General
Franco will reestablish law and or
der in Spain and then permit the
people to choose their own form of
government, Ogden H. Hammond,
former United States Ambassador to
Spain said here at St. Peter’s College
in a symposium on the Spanish Civil
War.
The symposium was participated in
by a representative from each of five
Catholic colleges -and universities in
the Metropolitan area. Mr. Hammond,
who is a Protestant, acted as chair
man.
“I firmly believe that the people
of Spain want, above all else, a good
government of their own choosing,
and not dictation from Germany,
Russia or Italy as to what that gov
ernment shall be; that there is no in
tention of giving up any of their ter
ritory to any other government; that
when Franco finally wins, as he
must, he will first establish law and
order, bring bade the Church and
then let the people decide what kind
of government they want.”
QUEBEC is arranging for the dec
oration of its streets and buildings on

tic Congress there June 22-26.
