SPAIN AND BRITAIN
RELATIONS EXCELLENT
(British Official Wireless.) (Received February 13, 11.30 a.m.) RUGBY, February 12.
British Press comments on General Franco's visit to Italy are naturally confined to speculation, but the general view is that Italian circumstances compel Mussolini to ask rather than ordain, and that Spain's position is stronger than when she resisted the Axis pressure in the past.
Commentators who detect a connection between the visit and the Italian defeats in North Africa remark that General Franco's relations with Britain are excellent, and see evidence of that in the recent financial and material help given to Spain by the British.
