y
; Nazi Germany was the spear
head of discontented nations. In
censed by the Loyalist search OF
German ship, the NaziS indicated
a firm course toward Spain, re-
gardless of neutrality proposals. AT
the same time Great Britain warn
ed both Loyalists and rebels that
she will protect her merchant ships
and fire on any planes II they
persist in flying over Gibraltar.
Shipment of 38 carloads of war
materials, reported to include So
900 rifles, to the Spanish govern
ment from Mexico was severe
blow to neutrality hopes.
The only bright ray in Euro
pean peace hopes was a report
from Rome that France and Italy
have reached common ground in
their attitude towards the Spanish
revolt.
The United Press quoted a gov
ernment announcement from Ma
drid that Loyalist army has taken
Guadalupe, 110 miles southwest OF
Madrid, and other towns from
rebel foreign ! egionnaires and
Moors, reinforced by Fascists, and
is moving on toward Caceres and
Merida.
Government leaders hope this
army and other forces operating
west of the capital have succeeded
in stopping the rebel advance from
Badajoz province and its vicinity
The army which took Guadalupe
is called THE Phantom Column
The Column arrived here from
Valencia on the east coast. 1t was
composed of Loyalist soldiers, civil
guards, storm guards and a motley
horde of men recruited from the
working districts of Valencia.
At Berlin it was believed that
Germany may alter her attitude
toward neutrality agreement il
the Spanish revolt, and take a
much firmer course.
So vehement has been the pro-
test against the stopping of Ger
man ship by a Loyalist cruiser
that neutral observers believe
Germany would consider any re-
gime which might be called a
communiStic one a potential enemy
if it's power were confirmed in any
country.
Reliable information was that
Admiral Erich Raeder, navy COM
mander in chief, was at Berchtes-
gaden in Bavaria, comforting with
Adolf Hitler.
Meanwhile the United States
stood firm in its determination
to keep clear of European wars,
even to the extent of refusing to
join in proposed international me-
diatory efforts to Stop Spain's
bloody civil war.
While the principal European
nations apparently were beng
crowded closer to the precipice OF
a general European war by the
trend of events in the Spanish
crisis, the United States repeated
its previous declaration that il
would adhere strictly to its long
established policy of noninterfcr-
ence in the affairs of other nations.
From London, Great Britain
sternly warned Spanish Loyalists
and rebels that it will protect its
ships from any illegal interference
and will fire on any airplanes that
persist in flying over Gibraltar.
If Spanish airplanes fly over
Gibraltar, British guns will fire
three warning shots. Then if the
airplane has not made off, they
will fire at the plane.
The order, by a government that
was understood to regard a victory
for Loyalists as a lesser threat to
peace than a Spanish Fascist state,
was regarded as dramatic evidence
of the grave alarm Britons felt.
