CANNOT CONTINUE
INTERVENTION IN SPAIN
INTOLERABLE POSITION
BELGIUM'S ATTITUDE
(By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright.) (Received January 11, 12.30 p.m.) BRUSSELS, January 10.
Non-intervention in Spain, as at present practised, could not continue, declared the Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. Spaak, when addressing the Parliamentary Commission on Foreign Affairs concerning the appointment of a commercial agent to Burgos.
Italian and German intervention, he continued, which constituted unilateral action, had become intolerable. Belgium had strictly adhered »t|o the* principles of non-interven-tion throughout the war but would be morally obliged to reconsider her attitude if the Non-intervention Committee was unable to enforce its decisions, especially in relation to the withdrawal of volunteers.
