...dictator's homage to the ultraright was not the only price exacted by the army. While conceding that war with Communist invaders from Moscow or Peking was "improbable," Carrero Blanco announced that the nation had no choice but to develop its "maximum military potential." That means that Spain will increase its spending on its armed services and other security forces, which already command an outsized 18.6% of the gross national product...
...show itself does not show signs of all the strain. The humor is not only more risqué than in years past, it also has raised the Smothers brothers' fallen torch by tackling such heavies as the U.S. military establishment, the ultraright wing, Viet Nam, marriage, homosexuality and organized religion.

For good measure Premier Duca suppressed two small parties of the ultraRight, the Iron Guards and the anti-Semitic National Christian Defense League. In a wholesale, nationwide shakeup local prefects were ousted and replaced by Bratianu men. "These new officials," said a close friend of Dino Bratianu with grim humor, "will have the duty of seeing that the election, which we will...
