It is a movement of labor and political bands that opposed the dictatorship and were curbed by it. Now they turn the tables and give the enemy a taste of his own medi- cine by breaking up or annoying as much as possible political meet- lings of those who, while Primo ruled, had his favor. Student Unrest In addition, Spain is harassed by student unrest which has caused strikes at various universities; by some socialist and communist agita- tion, by widespread labor troubles and strikes caused by a combina- tion of political and economic con= ditions—and back of it all, merging directly or indirectly into a good deal of the trouble, the movement for a republic in licu of a monarchy. The fights between Primo’s old supporters and opponents take spe- cifically, the form of opposing forc- es of the “monarchial Union” and; an alignment of labor and political left groups, sometimes including tself-styled communists and sociil- ists. “Monarchial Union” These elements oppose the * archial Union” not so much because they Are against the King, although some of them are, as because /ey are still bitter against those who backed the dictatorship.
