what may prove to be but the begin
ming of further international compli-
cations growing out OF the Spanish
civil war.
Although there was no indication
OF the next step in German policy, the
German war fleet was ordered to weigh
anchor Immediately to reinforce the
fighting units already in Spanish wa
tiers.
"Shoot on Sight" Orders.
At the same time German naval
forces received orders to shoot at
sight at any approaching plane or man
OF war OF the Spanish government as
long as the present disturbed condi-
ton lasts.
The non-intervention communique
read:
The German representative to the
Non-lntervention Committee has re-
ceived orders to inform the chairman
OF the committee of the facts off,
clally established concerning Ibiza, and
notify him of the following decision
Of the Reich's government:
The Reich's government will not
participate in the control system nor
sessions OF the Nom n-intervention Com
mlttee as long as no guarantee Is
given that such happenings will not
recur.
The Reich's government, OF course,
Evening star., 1937-05-31

will decide according to it's own ideas
on measures to be taken toward the
red rulers in answer to the unex-
ampled and treacherous assaults.
1T has in addition ordered its
Warships for the duration of this con-
dition to ward off by force every
approaching red Spanish plane or
man OF war"
A foreign Office spokesman de-
clared the German men of war were
careful in bombing Almeria to take
only military reprisals and not to
involve civilians.
Such reprisals, he said, were clearly
within international law.
More Violent Than Italy.
That Germany acted far more vio-
lently than Italy-one of whose ships
previously had been bombarded under
circumstances similar to the attack
on the Deutschland-he explained on
grounds that the death Of six Italian
officers was the first such case, calling
usually for mere warnings.
The attack on the Deutschland, he
said, was repetition OF early of1enses
despite warnings.
The German government last week
declared one of its deStroyers, the
Albatros, barely escaped damage
when Spanish government airplanes
dropped four bombs near her in a
Ballearic port)
The spokesman scoffed at the pos
sibility that Germanys dispatch of
naval reinforcements to Southern
Spain indicated further warlike ac-
ton
He said the damaged Deutschland
would have to be relieved, that the
war vessels now participating in the
international control feet would have
to be conveyed home, and that, there
fore, the sending Of additional ships
was unavoidable.
The neighborhood OF the foreign
office showed the tension. Crowds
gathered densely in the Wilhelm
strasse and in the Wilhelmsplatz, in
front of the chancellory, waiting as
though they expected something un-
usual to happen.
Both streets were lined with auto
mobiles of German officials and the
Berlin diplomatic corps, indicating
foreign missions as we'll as the Reich S
leaders were deeply concerned over
the situation.
The government officially announced
today its warships had destroyed Al
meria in retaliation for the bombing

man government said:

German sea forces. After the port was
destroyed and the opposing red bat

was broken off and ended
Additional ships of the German

to reinforce our fighting units in

Almost at the same time the wound

bor of Gibraltar last night with its

the leaders of the Reich into a hasty

An official communique announced

delay, communicate to the Non-inter-
vention Committee"
Just before he left to join his leader
for the fateful conference at the
chancellery, Col. Gen. Hermann Will

DIMOND REPORTS CANADA HOLDING UP AIR M A IL
Says Dominion Refused Flight Permission Because
 of Interior Route Plans

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-Alaska Delegate Anthony J. Dimond said objections by Canada and the ab- sence of bidders delayed the estab- lishment of an authorized contract for an air mail line between Fair banks and Juneau He said the $70,- GOO appropriated by Congress last summer had gone begging because Canada withheld permission for planes to fly over about 250 miles of Canadian territory.
 Tt would be advisable for planes to fly that route but Canada has not yet given permission" he said. "The Postoffice Department advertised the proposed contract But no bidders came in"
 Dimond said he understood that Canada wouldn't permit flights over it's Territory until it had worked out details for a proposed British spon- sored route from Billings, Mont, to Fairbanks.
