...army's third alternative is to group with the Falange, the once fascist-oriented political organization developed behind Franco during the Civil War but downplayed ever since. The blue-shirted Falange is fading; its membership is down to 300,000, most of them aging. To secure power, it would need much more popular support than it has now. What some educated Spaniards would like, but few think is feasible, is the establishment of true political parties, one of which would share the philosophy of West Germany's moderate middle-class Christian Democrats. "We had no middle class...
...still remembered as an incredible, nearly surreal trial. Defendants shouted "pig" and "fascist" at the judge, mocked him by wearing judicial robes. One day they tried to hold a birthday party, and when the cake was banned from court, one defendant cried out: "They've arrested your cake!" At one point a defense attorney threw himself across a table and tearfully implored the judge: "Put me in jail, for God's sake, and get me out of this place."

"This fascist Government has got to fall!" he ranted. "These fascists have done nothing but keep the little man down. The only way you can be free is with this!" he shouted, waving his Luger. Putting the weapon to the head of a newsman, Ron Pinkney, he demanded: "What...
...Democratic senatorial nominee Barefoot (yes, that's right, Barefoot) Sanders. A clean-cut, 47-year-old moderate, who has identified himself with the Democratic ticket, though not with Senator McGovern, Sanders is facing incumbent U.S. Senator John Tower, a short, abrasive politician known to a few as "The Mini-Fascist." Tower is not only to the right of Nixon on most issues, but he seriously feared that the President's trips to Moscow and Peking would be major concessions to the Communists. Recently, Tower was forced to put out a tabloid most of which was devoted to refuting charges made...
