Spanish citi. zens were free men. AH the ills of the old times were to be forgotten. Their troubles were over. But, alas, it didn't work out that way. Actually, the new government had been heralded a few months before Us inception by a serious general strike and an uprising among the military forces. There was the world:wide depression to be reckoned with, and the fact that in Spain the currency was deflated, industry frozen and foreign markets' for Spanish farmers hopelessly last primo de Rivera had been driven Into exile by rising governmental debts and deficits. Political liberty was supposed to rectify all of these ' things. Qf course it didnt When the republic was born 75 per cent of the population was dependent directly or indirectly, upon agriculture, yet so evilly was it of distributed that only the farm population could make a fair living from It. Immense estates, relics of feudal days, held the really fertile land; the poor peasant was doomed to watch thousands upon thousands of acres of rich land carelessly, wastefully cultivated, or even thrown open to pasture,- while he, burdened with heavy debts, had to work a tiny patch of poor land. The great hordes of landless farm hands, working only half the year, and. then at meager wages, were steadily growing. . Small private Industries wallowed hopelessly in debt, while great mo nopolies were so entwined into the government that when there were losses, the taxpayers made them good, but when there were profits the stockholders got them all. When the republic came into being there were countless and needless bureaus eating the substance of e the treasury. A costly and with army, many needlessly officers noted for blundering and extravagant colonial" adventures, was being kept.
