...confusing as it at first appears is the fact that Spanish Communists and the Soviet officials assisting them are doing everything in their power to prevent Leftist Spain from going too Red. Communism, by Steel Man Stalin's present definition, is primarily for Russian consumption. A Fascist Spain would be a tragedy for Moscow, but alienating France and Britain would be a tragedy too.

When competent U. S. correspondents investigated they found no major revolt but a few Gold Shirts taking pot shots at police and Federal troops. After a day of skirmishing three Gold Shirts, one policeman, lay dead, 25 Gold Shirts were jailed. At dusk, Tamaulipas' Governor Marte R. Gómez took the Latin method of relieving tension.
