Public Wrath Over US Cuba Policy Sparks Barcelona Riots
Spanish crowds in Barcelona and Madrid erupt after the US Senate recognizes Cuba as a belligerent. A 15,000 strong protest attacks the US consulate, stones windows, police disperse the mob, no deaths reported. Spain readies war ships and expeditionary forces, with Adm. Beranger ordering training squadrons and armed merchant ships. The mood drives government to consider emergency credits and heightened diplomatic activity with Washington.
