LOYALIST ENVOY
La Passionaria Not Wanted in Paris MAY GO TO BRITAIN LONDON, Sept. 2. A storm of protest has greeted the arrival in Paris of La Passionaria (Signora Feriburi) whose mission is believed to be to secure arms, ammunition, planes and technical recruits from French Bed organisations for the Span ish loyalists. ‘‘L’ Echo de Paris" demands that she be ordered from the country.
The mission proposes to go to London unless banned by the Government. The ‘‘Daily Mail’s" political correspondent says: ‘‘Leading Conservatives will possibly make strong representations to Mr Baldwin to prevent La Passionaria coming to England." Mrs Arthur Greenwood, Sir Walter Citrine and Mr J. S- Middleton, Labour leaders, waited in the form of a deputation on Lord Cranborne at the Foreign Office, and according to an agreed statement subsequently issued ‘‘they expressed disquiet at the present situs tion and emphasised the importance of effective steps to ensure that the nonintervention agreements are effectively carried ouf.” Lord Cranborne stated that the Government was alive to the importance of an early meeting of the proposed committee to supervise the agreements.
