Spanish Government Shakeup Imminent Franco Seeks Favor Os United Nations Madrid. July 20. - (UP) -A sweeping reorganization of the Spanish government was reported imminent today in an apparent move by Gen. Francisco Franco o break the falange and smooth Spains way back into the good graces of the United Nations. Authoritative sources said Franco might announce the shake-up today and that it definitely would be made public within the next three or four days. These informants said only four members of the falangist cabinet would survive the purge—the ministers of labor, finance, education and interior. Even these holdovers reportedly were to be retained only because Franco feared to sharp a break with the falange might arouse popular resentment. Chief victim of the cleanout was expected to be Jose Luis Arrese. minister without portfolio and sec-retary-general of the falangist party, whose two posts were slat|edto be eliminated completely. I One puzzling aspect of the reor- j sanitation was the scheduled re-. moral of Jose Lequerica as foreign I minister. Lequerica was named to the post last August and under i his guidance Spain severed rela- | tions with Japan, embarked on a : general policy of rapprochement with the Allies, and. more importaitly. began cutting down the powi. - • of the falange. WeK-intormed quarters believed w vis being sacrificed to countermaw the removal of Arrese, his axi .-.;ce=ent in the falange. Letgmenea was understood to tut-* race.red U.
