ADMISSION TO LEAGUE.
REBELS’ POSSIBLE CLAIM
The Spanish civil war, writes the diplomatic correspondent of the London Daily Telegraph from Geneva, is not directly before the League, but it may, nevertheless, play an important part in the discussions, especially if the Madrid Government is to abandon the capital and retire to A7alencia.
It is believed that the insurgents would then proclaim themselves the de facto Government in Spain, claim recognition by the. league, and even send delegates to Geneva to demand the right to sit in the Assembly. It is strongly hinted that.the insurgent Government would immediately be recognised by Portugal and the South American States. This possibility is believed to have been already privately discussed between Senor del Vayo, the Spanish Foreign Minister, and M. Delbos, French Foreign Minister, also between M. Delbos and Viscount Cranborne, British Under-Sceretary for Foreign Affairs.
