Residents of Madrid Looking at Government Posters on a Wall, 1937. Spanish Civil War. '...there was - alas - plenty of trouble...at large in Europe, particularly in places like Madrid. For the cities of Spain were the first to feel the breath of war in a truly modern manner. It has been said that war is but an extension of politics. True enough, particularly if it happens to be a civil war...On the walls of besieged Madrid, government posters urged its citizens to make yet another greater effort to beat back the enemy [Franco's fascists]. For this was a war in which all people were soldiers, for the soldiers were the people'. From "Time To Remember - Sense Of Values", 1937 (Reel 2); documentary film about the events of 1937, war in the Far East, build up to war in Europe.
