CONFLICT IN SPAIN COMMITTEE PACT HOPED EFFORTS OF BRITAIN (British Official Wireless.) Reed. 1 p.m. RUGBY, Feb. 10. At question time in the House of Commons, the Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs, Viscount. Cranborne, stated that according to his information there wern large numbers, of Italian personnel in Spain, but he could not give any accurate estimate of the number involved.
lie added that the British Government had recently addressed the principal European Powers with a view to putting an end to the dispatch of volunteers to Spain. The Italian Government had undertaken to prohibit these movements as soon as others did so, but they declined to fake such steps in advance of other countries. The British Government was now exercising its utmost efforts to secure agreement, in the nonintervention committee, on a date on which such a prohibition could be put into force simultaneously by all Powers.
