Description
Enclosure: See No. 1175. Enclosing copy of letter from friend, Constancia de la Mora, whose husband, Ignacio Hidalgo de Cisneros was Chief of the Spanish Republican Air Force until collapse of Catalonia; Constancia in U.S. on relief mission; concern felt for the 440,000 Spanish refugees suffering in France, and other hundreds of thousands of Republicans in Spain who face execution or imprisonment at the hands of Franco, who has turned down all appeals for clemency; any suggestion of amnesty by democracies will be regarded as interference in internal Spanish affairs; bewildered by apparent determination of democracies to continue with a second Munich in Spain.
