very tangible and telling form. Two
democracies, those OF Britain and
France, sought an agreement among
the nations TO the effect that they
would not intervene In the Spanish
struggle. The democracies played
the Raine--as they usually do. They
sent on rams TO either side In the
conflict. The relationships - Ger.
many, italy and Portugal-delayed
their reply 10 Britain and France
by weeks. They finally agreed TO
non.intervention.
Russla's Help Too Late
But by that time German air
planes and italian airplanes, tanks,
artillery and supplies had found
their way into the rebel camp. 80
had German and italian officers
and men, who knew how to use the
war material 30 kindly sent. This
Is not hear-say. II Is not gossip. II
has been openly written In English
papers by 70 libale English news
paper men, who were with the re-
bels--until expelled for telling too
many truths.
ratterly, IL has been counter
charged that the. Russians have
been spending war material to the
government OF Spain. Granting the
truth OF the counter charges, the
aid came too late 10 have Irun, San
Sebastian and Toledo for the gov
eminent. II came too late TO pre-.
vent the investment Of Madrid. The
success Of the rebel side has been
largely q success OF German and
italian war material employed
against q government which was
weak In Just those things.
Rebels TO Patriots 4 wa
Just as nations took sides In this
conflict 80 did classes. Nowhere has
this been better illustrated than In
Britain. The trades unions, the
Labor party and many OF the Liber.
oil party and many Of the liberal
party have attacked their own gov.
eminent because II. was too slow IN
preventing German and Italian sup
piles reacing te rebels.
But the most striking example
Of class feeling has been In the
press. There have been papers which
have scrupuiously called the gov
crnment the government and the
rebels, rebels. The Tory papers. read
by the comfortable classes, soon gave
up that kind OF nomenclature. TO
them the government became
"Reds." The rebels became at first
insurgents" then "Nationalists." II
remained for the glaringly pro-
Fascist Rothermere press to wave q
magic wand and change rebels into
patriots"
