Franco Juggles
Cabinet; Talks
Of 'Monarchy'
Kicks Out Nine
Of 13 Ministers;
Favor 8 France
MADRID, July 21 (UP) Gen.
Francisco Franco reorganized his
cabinet today with a sweeping
purge of falangist party minis
ters that observers interpreted as
a major step toward restoration
of the monarchy and rapproach
ment with the allies.
(Diplomatic sources in London
said Franco was preparing to
proclaim the 9-year-old Alfonso
Jaime, grandson of the exiled
King Alfonso, king-designate and,
name himself as head of a re
gency to administer Spain until
the boy-monarch reaches his
muiorlty.)
1 - - , M
I In the first thorough-going gov
ernment snake-up since the civil
war, Franco ousted nine of his
13 cabinet ministers and abolish
ed the post of falangist party
secretary-general. Jose Luis Ab-
rese,, former secretary - general -r
was dismissed from his cabinet
post of minister without port- -folio
and his position was not ?
filled.
Not Filled ' ' '
Arret-e'a summary dismissal t;
was regarded in authoritative 1
sources as the "beginning of the .
end" for the falange. . ,'
' Eliminated
His chief opponent in the gov- ' w
eminent, Foreign Minister Jose !
Lequerlcal who helped, steer Spain
away from the axis during the
past -year, also was eliminated. '
Lequerica was bellevod to nave'
been let out as a conciliatory ges- "
ture to the falangist movement.
Alberto Martin Artajo, 40-year-
old head of the Catholic action -
party, replaced Lequerica in the
foreign ministry. One of the r
youngest men ever to hold .the J2!
post, he. was expected to follow
his - predecessors policies and "
work toward improved relations lJ
with France particularly and the Tj.
allied powers in general. ,
