THE EVENING EAIM.UMA BREAK l _Capital Man With Alfonso NO LONGER FEARED Col. Macia Informs Press ‘Country Has Complete Un- derstanding With Spain. BY PAUL SCOTT MOWRER. By Cable to The Star. PARIS, France, April 16.—The anxie- ty felt throughout Europe whether the newly declared republic of Catalonia will continye as & part of Spain has been somewhat dispelled by the follow- ing declaration, just given to the press by Col. Macia, head of the new re- public: “It is really a Catalonian republic which we proclaimed solemnly Tues-| day. but this does not mean a disagree- ment with the Spanish Republicans, who proclaimed a Spanish republic. There is a complete understanding be- tween us. ! “But we are obliged to recognize the state of Catalonian opinion, which is almost entire]y converted to autonomist | ideas. We want the freest and most, cordial federation with z1l Spanish peo- ples. We want to create a generous Tepublic, friendly to the workers and open to all universal ideas. “We strongly counsel order, though for the moment we see no dangerous enemies either to the right or left.

It is closea and carefully guarded while Republican officials are taking an inventory. A similar course has been proposed for other royal palaces. The people of Spain are continuing to assume that King Alfonso formally abdicated. Nothing to the contrary has been indicated in any newspaper. Re- ports from abroad that the King still claims his royal rights have not been printed and are generally unknown heze. When the change of government was accomplished the authorities feared mobs might attack the palace or the members of the royal family if the public had a notion that the King was not abdicating fully. Because of this the announcement was made that the King had abdicated and knows nothing to the contrary. The Catalan problem is one of the difficult immediate situations.

Banks have had a brisk demand for foreign money, mostly from grandees and wealthy aristocrats, but some from business men who are sending money abroad. The peseta was quoted at Madrid today at around .52 to the dollar, with some feeling of timidity and uncertainty about future develop- ments existing in the business and banking world. ‘The council of ministers was under- stood today to have decided that the integrity Spain must be maintained until a constituent cortes or constitu- tional convention can work out its fu- ture status, ‘and that separatist move- ments, such as that at Barcclona, still | message Former King Alfonso visiting Ame Exposition.

We are now all sister re- publizs. We are now a government sim- ilar to yours. There is a closer bond through our feedom and similar form of governments. Spain will honor her history as the nation which discovered the lands where all the republics from Alaska to Tierra Del Fuego are situated. If there was any difference between Spain and the Americas, it was simply | a difference of institutions. As these | have disappeared I believe that we shall be able to understand each other better and to love one another even more. With ct to Portugal, our rela- tions will even more cordial and there will be more confidence. I em- and said that no decision on the credit had been reached. % President Alcala said today: “The government will continue to carry out the religious concordat with the Holy See at Rome as usual” adding, how- ever, that freedom of religious worship would be recognized. where & c-filll\;e republic has been pro- claimed, must be suppressed. President Alcala has asked Col. Fran- cisco Macia, President of the Catalan Republic, to come here for a conference, the Madrid Junta’s attitude meanwhile being that it cammot consent to any separate movement. Another _ such movement has appeared in the Basque provinces, where a republic, which some hold to be disassociated from that at Madrid, has been proc’aimed. The government’s program is to call parifamentary elections at some date not yet decided, allow the Parliament as a constitutional convention to write the permanent constitution and thea e:th: by direct vote of the pacple or by the! action of Parliament to name constitu- | tional cabinet to replacs the present Pprovisional government.

In it Al- fonso, admitting that he has lost the love of his people, declared that he was still King, but was suspending his rcyal prerogatives in the hope of avoid- ing plunging his country Into civil war “I renounce none of my rights,” said the manifesto, “because, more th*n my own, they are the deposit accumulated by history for which I shall one day have to answer for their preservation. I await the truthful expression of the collective cpinion and while waiting for the nation to speak. I deliberately sus- pend the exercise of royal prerogative and take myself from Spain, knowing thus that she is sole mistress of her destinies.” The impression gained here that Al- fonso has not given up his throne or abdicated, but has merely left Spain until the future status of its govern- ment can pe worked out in constitu- tional conve . and that until this convention is held reforms of the pro- Visicnal government necessarily will be somewhat restricted. Plans on fcot, however, inc'ude partition of some of the estates of the grandees, abolition of titles of nobility and the like.

S. Awaits Information Before Recog- nizing New Republic. By the Associated Press. Ambassador Padilla of Spain yester- day resigaed his dipiomatic post as a result of the overthrow cf the Spanish monarchy. The Ambassador, who had been in Washington since 1927, submitted his resignation shortly after he had been advised officially of the formation cf a republic. He was a clcse friend of King Al- fonso. The Ambassador said his plans were indefinite, but he probably would retire to his estate in San Sebastian, Spain.

It is not given to me as yet to dis- cuss whether Spaniards in the Ameri- cas should have representation in the Cortes. It is too premature to speak of this now, but when the moment comes the government will study the question with interest. Our progrem is to elect a Cortes which, with complete sovereignty, should decide what the future policy of the government of Spain shall be. All the acts of the provisional govern- ment will be submitted to the Cortes so elected by the pesple. At this time it is difficult to formulate a program as all the measures we may take will have to be by mutual accord after due deliberation by the ministry. Regarding the Catalonian problem, the government is ready to concede the Catalonians their national aspirations. This is a question of sentiment with the Catalonjans, it is also a question of right. And when I speak of the Catalonians I believe that the other provinces of Spain are entitled to the same prerogatives. They are all within the legal right to enjoy a system which may allow them, within the Epanish confederation, to enjoy full political autonomy. Full political autonomy will be conceded Catalonia.

King Alfonso, who has abdicated from the Spanish throne, was pictured today as an all-around good fellow by the president of the Civil Service Com- mission, Thomas E. Campbell, who came into intimate contact with the King during a number of years spent in Spain as commissioner general for the United States to the International Exposition at Seville, which ended in June of last year. King Alfonso is democratic and his manner informal on all occasions and as & mixer he has Mayor Jimmy Wal- ker of New York and Al Smith “rolled into one,” Mr. Campbell declares, The King, a man of forceful per- sonality, is admired by all with whom he , comes in contact, Mr. Campbell says, and during his acquaintance with his royal highness he was most im- pressed with the “great democracy of royalty.” Democratic on All Occasions. At a luncheon given near Madrid on the occasion of the dedication of 120 airplanes, Mr. Campbell said the King's charming manner and per- sonality were manifest in the simplest form. All were introduced the “same as at any American picnic,” Mr. Campbell asserts, adding, “I never met a man more charming and democratic under all formal and informal occa- sions. “The King, who speaks perfect Eng- lish, proved to be most interest:d in the United States and showed great in- ferest in the various enterprises here. is ;’mpo‘ed ‘Boulder Dam development on the Colorado River astounded American company,” Mr. Campbell as- serts. The King, according Campbell, asked questions regarding the project, that but few Americans have sufficient knowledge of the project to ask. The King frequently expressed a longing to visit the United States, to see the City of New York, the great de- velopments in the West and elsewhere in_the country. lay stress on royal dignity. He always has a fine habit of remembering his friends and spesks to them cordially wherever he sees them. On one occasion while Mr. Campbell and some friends were standing near a road, an automobile of familiar Ameri- can make, drove up and some one waved and in perfect English sald “Hello.” It was the King at the wheel, with a duke seated beside him. “We are just out for a little airing.” King Alfonso asserted, as he hastily drew up for a little chat with his friends. The King is a great story teller and has good stories to fit any and every occasion, Mr. Campbell said. Popular With Women. He says the King is very popular among women. This Mr. Campbell at- tributes to his Royal Highness' ability to say the right thing at the right time, come to attention, clicks his heels and kiss the hands of the fair sex. performed in Spain would meet with the approval of any physician, for it is done in most sanitary manner. Instead of actually kissing the hand of one be- | ing greeted, it is proper to kiss the thumb of your own hand, at the same time giving all the appearance of a genuine kiss on the hand of the other party. Mr. Campbell last saw the King in April of last year at the Seville .Fair, where he always took an active part in the pagentry. Now that the King is relieved of his responsibilities of office, Mr. Campbell | expressed the hope that he may fulfill | his longfelt longing to visit this country.

Prefect of Police Chiappe conferred at length with Retiring Ambassador Quinones de Leon over police measures necessary for the King's arrival tonight. Family Gathers in Paris. ‘With Alfonso's arrival, a few min- utes before midnight, the entire Span- ish royal family will be gathered in Paris with the exception of the third son, the Infante Don Juan, who went to Gibraltar from Cadiz yesterday and may remain there a day or so. It was a grief-stricken Queen, who could hardly believe what had happened to them, who came by train from Hendaye to Paris, but it was a nervous, irritable King who arrived at Marseille aboard the cruiser Principe Alfonso. He answered newspaper men who ask- ed for an interview shortly after landing at Marseille with a firm.“Lal sez moi"—leave me alone. His face was drawn with fatigue and when he went upstairs to his hotel room he told the porter three times to be sure to take good care of his baggage. Take 28-Room Suite. ‘The Queen and the royal family have taken an entire floor at the Hotel Meurice, with 28 rcoms. The salon of the King and Queen overlooks the Rue de Rivoli, with a view beyond of the Tuileries Gardens, where Marie Antoin- ette used to stroll befcre her downfall The decorative style of the salon is that of the Louis XVI period. The revelation of unpopularity of her husband and herself after the Spanish election Sunday came as a bolt from the blue. the exiled Queen told the correspondent of Journal at Hendaye &s she boarded a train for Paris, “It was absolutely unexpected” she sald. “There was something like a red rush, a wave of Communists which swept all before us.
