PLEASE PASS THE FOLLOW41 NG TO THE PRESIDENT:
MY FIRST DAY IN MADRID INCLUDED CALLS ON GENERAL FRANCO

FOREIGN MINISTER. THE TALK WITH FRANCO -- WHOSE PHYSICAL
CONDITION IS VERY WEAK -- WAS LARGELY UNEVENTFUL.

IMPRESSIONS FROM THE TRIP. AT THE CLOSE OF THE MEETING
THE GENERAL ASKED THAT I SFND YOU HIS WARM BEST WISHES
