By Radlo to The Star. TOULON, France, September 31.— Efforts of the Spanish government to suppress the Fascist rebellion are ham- pered by three difficulties: Pirst, lack of unity and absence of a single directive force, both in mili- t.ary and political aTairs, Second, the fact that the govern- ment is not only conducting & ‘civil war, but is trying to steer a popular mass movement, which, in Catalonia, for instance, already can be described as & social revolution and elsewhere is tending in that direction. ‘Third, the fact that the development of that movement is unequal and Savings on Shelving THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, varied in different sections of the country. True, there also is & lack of po- litical unity among the rebels—some nu Carlists, some Alfonso monarch- ists, some republicans, like Gen. Franco. Country of Provinces. Indeed, Spain is traditionally a country of provinces, perhaps because of geographical conditions—its inhabi- tants have thought of themselves as Andalusians, Catalonians, Aragonese, Castilians, rather than as Spaniards. Here, however, the movement toward social revolution, which I listed as one of the government difficulties, becomes an element of strength. The Fascist rebellion is teaching the Spanish masses, more sharply and quickly than any writien or spoken propaganda, the grim lesson of class 2x4 FRAMING m?ln&.l&toflfi. lengths.

Although Spain lacks a Lenin to voice the slogan “Workers and Peas- ants, Unite!” the idea of proletarian mately may prove to be which will bind anti-Mescist Spain together,, Catalonis has given a definite lead along this road. At first sight the number and variety of its workers’ organizations are bewildering and un- widely, but closer scrutiny shows that most of them interlock and overlap to no small degree and that, from ap- parent chaos and divergent views, there gradually is being produced & considerable measure of proletarian unity. PFrom the outset this process was facllitated in Catalonia by the immediate formation, after defeat of D.

Despite the n-w- of a disciplined v, like the Bolshe there has lonlan organizations and divergent views a central authority to direct not only the economic and political life, but military operations as well. A week ago there met in Barcelona some 400 delegates from 170 rural areas, who succeeded in adopting s common platform of agrarian col- lectivism and co-operation, which not only permitted the existence of the small peasant proprietor, but offered 1936. him co-operative aid in the produe- until the last minute that the An- archists would accep a cabinet post without portfolio, but they finally re- fused, either because they could not egree on & representative or’ mon probably because they objected to coalition with the Republicans, al- though they were willing to join the Largo Caballero BSocialists an the Communists without the Republicans.

'n- conclusion cannot be avoided that the Largo Caballero government | - is a big step on the road to prole- tarianization; that is to say, toward & unity hitherto lacking among Span- ish worke"s and peasants. That that unity will be achieved and is being achieved under the banner of class war is not the fault of the Spanish loyalists. The Fascist rebellion started a train of events whose final results still are impossible to foresee. But unless the rebels drown the revolutionary movement in blood there is little doubt that it will - spread and develop with ae- celerated speed lett—in short, toward a true social or proletarian nvollmun That is the o logic of History and of facts, which are stul things, as said.
