Br HENRY F. SCHULTE UPI Correspondent Madrid - (UPD - The Spain which Francisco Franco has ruled for more than 20 years is a monarchy by tradition and by law, but a monarchy with out a king. Some day, Franco has said.H a king will return to the Spanish throne. But when that will happen and who the king will bje is still known only to the 66-year-old Franco. There seem to be two candi dates. : The most likely is Don Juan of Bourbon, 45, legal heir to the throne vacated by his father, King Alfonso XIII in 1931. . . " Son Possibility - Also a iikely possibility, but one whose claim lies farther in gie future, is Prince Juan Carlos, Don Juan's 21-year-old son. -And although there are mon archist factions in Spain which back other, less likely claim ants to the throne, Don Juan and Juan Carlos seem to be overwhelmingly the logical choices to follow Franco. The Spanish throne has been vacant since Alfonso fled the country without renouncing his rights 28 years ago. He died in Rome in 1941. In 1947, following a nation al referendum, Franco pro claimed Spam a kingdom. And 10 years later, his right-hand man, Adm. Luis Carrero Blan co, Minister Sub-Secretary for the Presidency, told the Span ish parliament: "When the Caudillo (Franco) is gone, a monarchy, neither absolute or liberal, but tradi tional . . will be that which rules Spajn." Statement Significant Though no one doubted that Carrero Blanco was voicing Franco's .thoughts, the state ment became even more sig nificant last year when Franco himself reiterated it.

That fell far short of indi cating that Franco planned to install Don Juan on his fath er's throne, but it did streng then speculation that Juan was the likeliest candidate. However, it is generally agreed that there have been misunderstandings bet ween the prince and the Caudillo. That may be an influencing factor when Franco decides to name a successor, political ob servers say. - Indeed, Franco has been grooming the younger Juan Carlos in a manner apparently aimed at preparing him for eventual rule. Already, he has taken spec ial cram courses at the nation's Military, Air and Naval Acad emies. He spent two years at the Army School at Zaragoza, a year at the Naval Academy at Marin and last year studied at the Air Academy at San Javier. To Enter University ' This fall, the tall blonde prince will enter the Univer sity of Madrid for some non military education. v Don Juan lives up to all but one of the requirements. The exiled pretender has never But Spanish law says a monarch must be at least 30 years old, which . rules out Juan Carlos until the late 1960's. The law also requires that a king must be of royal blood, a Catholic, married to royalty and must accept the country's basic laws, which were intro duced under Franco beginning in 1936. given his approval to the na tional laws, one of the points of disagreement between him and Franco. No one knows if Don Juan could be reconciled to the laws or if the laws could be chang ed to suit him. Seen Best Answer Almost all political groups in Spain, with the exception of the nation s small, well- organized and outlawed Com munist Party, agree that monarchy would be the best answer to the question of "after Franco, what?" . There is disagreement on the type of monarchy and on whether it should be perm anent or temporary. Opinions range from die-hard tradition alists who would welcome an absolute monarchy to the so cialists who would look upon a king as a stop-gap measure in the marcn toward some f onrL of democracy. Basically, though only one man really knows the answer to the question of "after Fran co, what?" That's Franco him self. Mild Winter Forecast in 143rd Edition of Farmer's Almanac The family Council .

' . Isabel A. - I suddenly feel unsure of everything. ' VMrs., JJU-My husband and I areterriblyiupset about bur 23-year-pld . daughter, , Isabel. She is engaged to marry one of the finest young men in the world, yet she has suddenly started to hesitate and pro crastinate. : s Jim is tall and handsome -looks a lot. like Rock Hudson. The girls are mad about him and plenty of : them turned absolutely green with envy when he and Isabel were en gaged. On top of that, he is the only son of one of the most '.successful businessmen in our community. To top it all, he is a real gentleman in every way. When we started making wedding plans Isabel got the jitters. I feel this is natural, but she shouldn't let them get the better of her. Sometimes I'm a litle worried about her. - Isabel A. - I know that everyone is looking at me as if I were crazy or something. I have no complexes and I'm not afraid of sex if that's what they're all thinking. I just , suddenly feel unsure about everything. . It's true that Jim is all my mother says and I am very proud that he picked me out of the many girls who were interested - in him. When he first showed he was serious, I was in such whirl of ex citement I hardly knew what hit me. Then I started to no tice trivial things I didn't like. It may sound silly, but certain little mannerisms and expres sions, of his annoy me. Frankly, when Jim kisses me no bells ring: I don't know if I'm being overly romantic, but I'd like to hear" them. . ,. The Council: We don't think Isabel is overly romantic or silly. We do think a girl about to be married ' should hear bells and should, on the whole, feel drawn toward her fian ce's mannerisms and expres sions. These things aren't trivial. Mannerisms aren't accidental. They express something of the inner man. That particular something may be the very thing that sets up an antag onistic vibration in Isaoel. The same "something" may attract another woman. We don't think a suitor must stand or fall solely on the basis of such manerisms, but due heed should be paid to such warning signals. Isa bel obviously needs more time to determine just what it is they signify. Perhaps this quality is something she feels she cannot live with," or it may well be . something she can manage to overlook in view of the . young man's many assets. ' In any case, Isabel should be encouraged to keep her eyes wide open. She should not be pressured by the kind of din her mother has set up. All that super - salesmanship is designed to shout down the more subtle, yet very strong promptings of mind and heart. Mrs. J.A. evidently must be reminded that in marriage the big thing is how one partner feels about the other, not what each is to the public at large.-A woman with a real capacity for wifely love will not take a man simply be cause others think he's a "good catch." It is our impression that Isabel is growing through this relationship from a superfi cial girl floating on her bub ble of good luck and populari ty to a woman with the cour age to ..accept her own per sonality and her own needs. We think she should be . left alone unless she feels she wants to discuss things fur ther with someone capable of taking a larger, more objec tive point of .view than. her mother has.

TANGNEY United Press International Lewiston, Mame - (UPD - The uncanny Farmer's Alma nac, still gloating over its on- the-button seasonal forecasts of the past two years, made its official pronouncement to day: winter will be mild. The 143rd edition of this American institution also tells its readers how to make something called Vienna Op era Bars and when to spade their flower beds ("right after your wife tells you to"), among other things. As for the weather, Alma nac editor Ray Geiger doesn't do the forecasting himself.. "I have a man in a cave in Florida," he explained. "Just keep him away . from the radio and TV predictions, and he never misses." Has Bad News The man in the cave has bad news for both Christmas and next Fourth of July. No snow on Christmas, and, for the Fourth, "Stormy . period. Tornado weather in Midwest ern . and Southern . states. Thunderstorms in the Missouri- River , Valley, - violent squalls oh West Coast. Blus tery in the East." ; Don't sell these, long-range predictions short. The Alma nac caught weather bureaus off-base for the 1938 New England hurricane, the 1950 Appalachian storms and many another tricks of na ture quietly catalogued two years in.'dvance by Geiger's publication. ;In fact, Geiger has a letter from the brigadier general of an air base - "Even though we have a million-dollar wea ther outfit, I've come to the conclusion that the Almanac is my best bet."

The hearing will be con- ducter by the State Water Resources Board. The appli cation was referred to the Board by the State Hydro electric Commission. Donel J. Lane, Board secre tary, said several protests to. the permit have been filed. He said they had been brought by John Hunt, presi dent of Western Rod and Field Club, Inc.; Elmer Mc Clure, state Grange master; Floyd , W. Martin, legislative chairman of the .

With a thermometer tie- pin and a never-ending stock of wit and whimsey, he trav els around the world , drum ming up business and collect ing the tidbits of information which fill out each issue. He said he recently put an Almanac on a reading table at Windsor Castle "with the thought that the Queen, when in residence, might, need something strikingly Ameri can to pick her up." oeiger also said he. pre sented the first copy of the 1960 edition to Pope John XXIII. "I managed to wiggle my way, into the Vatican on a special audience," the edi tor said. '"The Pope told me, through an interpreter,, that he plans to brush up on his English by reading the Al manac." - Farmers traditionally are its most avid readers. Many still swear by the lists of "best astronomic days" to kill plant pests, plant crops and set eggs. But city folks are just as interested in the famous almanac's sayings and jokes.
