NOTE TO BURGOS
SEIZURE OF GRAIN SHIPS
(Received December 1, 11.10 a.m.)
LONDON, November 30.
Owing to there having been no response to the Note demanding the release of the Greek grain ships, Britain has dispatched a further Note to Burgos demanding an immediate satisfactory answer.
According to the "News Chronicle" Lloyd's sharply raised the, war rates on Greek vesels in the Mediterranean owing to General Franco's raiders seizing and taking to Minorca two grain ships which were proceeding from Greece to Hamburg, a third which was en route from the Black Sea to Oslo, and a fourth from the Black Sea to the United Kingdom with Rumanian grain, apparently part of the British Government's "diplomatic purchase."
