Us to Name Griffis Madrid Ambassador After Five-Year Ban
James Roper reports the United States plans to appoint Stanton Griffis as ambassador to Madrid early next year. Griffis, 61, former ambassador to Argentina, will be the first U.S. ambassador to Madrid in five years. The post has been vacant since Norman Armour retired December 31, 1955, following UN recommendations. The move accompanies efforts to restore Franco Spain as a Western ally and may include new loans to integrate Spain into the anti communist bloc. Griffis resigned as Buenos Aires envoy after a little over a year in that post.
