The Spanish lauds are the theater of a struggle that will prove fateful to the destinies of the world. Facism is out against freedom. The rebels want to set up a regime of privileges ou a people of slaves. Which of the two will win, the factions fury or the popular enthusiasm?

The iberic peoples, who took the arms under the leadership of their lawful governments, cannot doubt of the victory in this strife they waged for national independence and all men's freedom.
