MADRID CLAIMS PROOF COLUMBUS WAS A SPANIARD One of Best Arguments Is That Discoverer Co'jld Not Speak Italian. Bv United Press MADRID, June 4.—— V /as Columbus (In Spanish iard or an Italia A */ The Spanish /government has derided that the, Royal Academy of History and t' ne Royal Society of Geography Should make a thorough investigate /n with a view to demonstrating '.tolumbus was a Spaniard. The '/onfusiop about Columbus' birth c /jjne principally from the famous .‘statement he made: “I came from Genoa, and in Genoa I was b° r '/.” But, according to several S'Anish historians, Columbus was f .Ancealing the truth because his ■mother was a Jewess, and the Jews ‘ were persecuted at that time and also because it was the fashion to claim to be from Genoa or Venice. Point to Name It seems that the name “Colon” is in. itself a proof, because in Italian it is “Colombo.” In 1334, there was a bishop of Almeria called Colon, .•and numerous Spanish families from i’ontevedra, in the province of Galicia, have had this name. In Porto Santo, not far from Pontevedra, there is a ruined house and on one •of the stones the inscription: “Juan Colon Ito Ano 1490.” This is considered of the utmost importance because it proves that the name Colon existed in Spain before the American continent was discovered. In the saohe region were round some papers winch were bills to D. o de Colon. To refute the Italian thesis, Spanish archaeologists point out that Dominico Colombo; Columbus’ alleged father, had a son whose name was Christoforo and who was much younger than the real Columbus. The Italian one was born in 1451, the Spanish one in 1433. One of the best Spanish arguments is that Columbus could not be Italian because he could not speak or write Italian. All his writings are in Spanish. All names he gave to the lands he discovered were Galician. San Salvador is the name of a church in Poyo, province of Pontevedra; Porto Santo is, according to Spanish tradition, the place where Pontevedra was founded. Puerto de San Nicolas and Trinidad are popular brotherhoods in Galicia; Punta de la Galera and Punta Danzada are still names of Galician origin, etc. His Diary Autographs mention Columbus as

Spanish. \n view of all this, and following t’ne works of several notable Spanish writers who concluded Columbus was a Spaniard, a final effort is now to be made to come to a definite conclusion.
