GREAT BRITAIN ICONTINGED FKOM the denunciation by Dr. Juan Negrin. Loyalist premier, of Italy and Germany as aggressors againat the republic. However, the main reason was dissatisfaction of the* powerful I Latin American bloc with the 1 refugee situation in Spain, where ■ Latin American embassies and le-| gallons had sought to evacuate: thousands of refugees, sheltered in the embassies and legations, from Loyalist territory These 1 refugees were Nationalist sympathizers. Up to the hour of the; assembly meeting, efforts were made vainly to obtain an agreement that would have won the | support of the republics for the Loyalists.

I King spoke of the significance of the reciprocal agreements Canada has with other nations, since they bellied dispel "the fear that has replaced faith" in international affairs The other speakers said smaller nations in Europe had experienced difficulties because of' lack of economic cooperations. — — o Prepare Schedules Os New Tax Levies Adams County Auditor John W.
