He was pinned there by Poland's demand for UNO action against his government on the grounds it con- stituted a menace to world peace. The Security Council probably DICK TF \ CY Courtesy of Chicago Tribune Syndicate, Inc By Chester Gould will weigh Poland's request this week. Just what action it will take caused brisk speculation, but a' full-fledged review of Francois rule appeared assured. Regardless of what disposition the Council eventually makes of the Polish charges, the coming discus- sion seemed certain to contribute to the pressure campaign by the Allies to force a bloodless change of rule in Spain. High American diplomatics offi- cials expressed the hope this could best be accomplished by instilling within the army the firm conviction that Franco's continuance in office would serve only to alienate Spain further from the rest of the world. It was the army, with Nazi and Italian aid, which placed Franco in power. Franco sidestepped active parti- cipation in World War II except for the "Blue Division" which he sent to fight Russia alongside the Ger- mans. Economically, Franco also helped his Axis friends from 1940 to mid- 1944 when Spain's exports to Ger- many mounted to twice that of all other nations.
