Spaniards Reflect On Argentina

Madrid, Dec. 12.

BOMO

Events In Argentina have caused Spanish circles to reflect on what might happen here when the Franco regime ends.

The fall of President Peron caused few regrets in Spain. His anti-Catholic policy was unpopular here and there had been friction between him and Madrid authorities concerning Spain's long-standing debt to Argentina of 2,000 million pesetas (£20,000,000) for wheat and meat.

OLD DUTCH WINDMILLS

Amsterdam, Dec. 12.

An experiment which may save many of Holland's centuries-old windmills from the decay and destruction with which they are threatened has begun in the small town of Hasselt near Zwolle.

The local windmill, which after generations of corn grinding could no longer be run economically, has now been entirely converted to produce electricity, bringing hope that other windmills may be saved in the same way.
