Mock Security Council
Holds Debate on Spain
Continued from page -1
When voted upon, the resolution
was defeated.
The Ukraine then introduced a
resolution providing for the ex-
clusion of Spain from all agencies
of the UN. This, too, was defeated.
A compromise resolution was
next introduced by Canada, pro-
viding for the immediate establish-
ment of a Board of Governors,
headed by the Regent, which would
hold democratic elections when
Franco died or “retired.” If Spain
would comply with this it would
be admitted to special agencies,
and eventually to full membership.
With the technical wrangling
over the legality of the resolution
that ensued, the meeting, for the
first time} seemed like a true rep-
lica of the Security Council. The
resolution was finally declared out
of order because it would interfere
in the internal affairs of a nation.
At this point, various delegations
started sending out frantic notes—
“Would you support a resolution
to... 2?” “Will you go along with
us on... ?” but, even before all
their data was in, it was voted to
adjourn the meeting and the dele-
gates rushed off to drink punch,
catch trains, have their pictures
taken, and tell each other that
Franco should be shot.
