BRITAIN SEEKING
AID Of PORTUGAL
Use of Naval and Air Bases
Is Sought to Protect
Empire Links.
By JOSEPH DRISCOLL.

LONDON, Oct. 30.-Looking ahead
to the collapse of the Nom -Interven-
ton Committee and the eventual tri-
umph of Gen. Francisco Frances revo-
luton in Spain, the British govern
ment engaged this week in important
conversations with the government OF
Portugal with view to making use of
the Portuguese naval and air bases to
protect the British post at Gibraltar
and the British Imperial highway
through the Mediterranean to the
Suez Canal.
Portugal is Britain's oldest ally and
the British think the time has come
to call upon her to fulfill her obliga-
tions. Their treaty of friendship and
military assistance dates back to the
l4th century, when Portugal was
great naval power and cut more
of figure in the world than she does
today. Even so Britain thinks Por-
tugal may yet prove of value in keep
ing the Mediterranean open and
checking the INFLAMMATION of Spain
and the Balearic Islands.
Feel Communications Periled.
Prior to the outbreak of Frances
rebellion, Britain enjoyed dominant
influence in Spain and Portugal and
never feared for the safety of her i'm
perial lifeline through the Mediter-
ranean. Now, with Premier Benito
Mussolini and Chancellor Adolf Hit
ler gaining foothold in Spain, Span
| ish Morocco and the ,Balearics, the
British land the French, too), feel
that their Mediterranean communica-
tions are jeopardized.
In the event of a general Mediter-
ranean war the British fleet if bound
for Spanish ports would have all the
more occasion 10 put in at Portugal
to find harbor so the British govern
ment has initiated conversations at
this juncture to ascertain to what ex-
tent they may expect cooperation
| from Portugal.
The conversations are being car
ried on in London between the for
eign office and the Portuguese En-
| bassy. If sufficient warmth of friend
ship rekindies then a good will" mis-
sion of diplomatic and military experts
will be dispatched to Lisbon to work
out the practical details of adapting
14th century alliance to the present
problems.
News Embarrassed Whitehall.
Whitehall was embarrassed at the
j leakage of the news that Britain and
Portugal We're having talks with a
view to discovering means of closer re-
lations and contacts between the two
defense services. The obvious mean
ing which informed observers read
into the news was that the British
we're anticipating collapse Of the nom
| Intervention system and further
France victory, and that the British
knew that Mussolini's position in the
Western Mediterranean was becoming
more and more menace to the British
Empire than ever before.
With this theory, the British have
noted the policy of their supposed
allies, the Portuguese, during the
Spanish civil war, that policy being
one of marked sympathy toward Italy
Germany and France, even at the risk
of alternating Britain and France

Textile Progress Unusual.
Progress with textiles is reported to
be unusual. Thus the results OF the
first year show that Germany may
become self-sufficient.
But Schacht asks at what price. He
and some other economists argue that
it will be only temporary self-suf-
ficiencyy because the supply Of some
German raw materials which serve
to make synthetic goods will be ex-
hausted in comparatively short
time.
The iron mines which Goering has
opened at great cost are said to con-
tain ore for only a few years. In the
view of the more conservative econ
omists who see Germany's position
over a period Of years. the four-year
plan is to make this country happier
for the future. But the policy of
"wehrmacht' defensive might is
supposed to prepare Germany for the
emergency OF war. and directs to this
purpose all the resources of the coun-
try. Apparently. in the opinion of the
German general staff, the possibility
that Germany might do without war
is negligible and can be overlooked.

tenn Of title abstracts as used In North

ject to stated encumbrances, Is In use
In some parts Of the country where

stated, and In other sections simple

ent or grant from the United States

Is made.
