stores of wealth while there is so
much poverty on every side?
They justified their support of re-

MYSTERY VESSEL
REPORTED AFIRE
Unidentified Ship Declared in
DISTRESS O S Found
in Bottle.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
QUEBEC, November 19.-Reports Of
q flaming ship at sea, linked with q
on the beach of Anticosti Island,
aroused the anxiety of mariners in the
stor1n-whipped Gulf of st. Lawrence
today.
Word Of the flaming wreck, 100 miles
below Quebec City, came from the
commander of the out bound freighter
Tref1sis.
Just off lie Rouge" the wireless
message from the freighter said. Be
1ieve we can see ship in flames"
The freighter's wireless operator
then told how the vessel changed its
course to investigate the burning craft
in the early morning darkness. Shallow
water, he said, prevented the Trefsis
from getting close to the vessel, how
ever, and she continued her journey
downstream.
The bottled S o S message, scrawled
IN almost illegible characters, read:
Help. We have nothing to eat. We
are in the middle of the Gulf.-S. S.
Chabot."
There was no means of telling how
long the bottle had been tossed about
on the sea, nor were signal service
men able to identify any such craft as
the IS. S. Chabot" in their registeries.
Apparently it was from some small
fishermen's barque. In such case,
mariners held little hope for the crews
safety, since fierce storm has been
raging in the Gulf for days and the
chances of small boat weathering it
appeared to be negligible.
A message was sent out to all boats
in the Gulf to search for the distressed
crew.

Others Are More to Blame

Informs House.
BY II e Associated Press.

LONDON, November 19.-Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden threw the
House Of Commons into brief tumult
today by declaring some other gov
ernments" were more to blame for
Spanish Intervention than Italy and
Germany.
Members said they presumed he re-
ferred especially to Soviet Russia.
Eden's statement came after au-
thoritative sources had thrown out
strong hints Great Britain would not
tolerate any "foolishness" from Span
ish insurgents which might interfere
with British Mediterranean shipping.
The hints referred to Gen. Francisco
Frances threat to blockade Barcelona,
Mediterranean port held by Spanish
government supporters.
Look for Cooperation.
The foreign secretary was asked II
he would get specific assurances from
Germany and Italy" that their rec
ignition Of the insurgent regime did
not mean they were going to hold
themselves free to supply arms" to
Franco.
He replied:
Certainly. Our whole object Is TO
see that non-intervention works. For
that purpose we look for the co-opera-
ton of all governments, irrespective
Of the particular ideologies they may
pursue"
He had said, earlier:
"As far as non-intervention Is con-
cerned, can say categorically that I
think there are other governments
more to blame than those Of Germany
and Italy"
Distinction In Recognition.
Asked by Clement r. Attlee. leader Of
His Majesty's opposition, whether the
British government intends to recog-
nize Gen. Frances insurgent regime in
Spain, Eden replied: THE House will
appreciate that there is a distinction
between the recognition Of belligerent
and the recognition Of any one side as
the government Of Spain
At the same time the government
was informed the consuls Of Germany
and Italy, which yesterday recognized
Franco, were leaving Barcelona i'm
mediately and that German and
Italian nationals would leave that port
as soon as a means Of transportation
