Daladier. Makes Bristling,
Surprise Declaration '
British Hopes for Four
Power Pact Endangered
By the Associated rrm
Bain mlrod the Spanish civil war
today, and the war Inturn, with Its
ramifications, threatened to bog
down efforts at appeasement among
the great powers In Europe.
Prance and Italy, on "opposite sides
of the barricades," In Spain, to quote
Premier Mussolini, seemed on the
verge of a breakdown In their nego
tlatlons for a new friendship pact.
Premier Edouard Daladier made a
surprising, bristling declaration of
Prance's determination to defend her
frontiers against "all attempts at
Tlolenco" as Italian efforta to rup
ture Prance's ties with Soviet Rus
sia raised new obstacles to an ac
cord. British Hopes Dimmed
moreover British hopes for a new
for-power security pact In Europe
were endangered by the same train of
circumstances.
Through Foreign Secretary Viscount
Halifax, "realistic" Prime Minister
Chamberlain specifically has mode
appeasement of Germany a primary
objective of British foreign policy.
' The Chamberlain government would
"like to see removed all causes of
mistrust and suspicion that may be
held to stand In the way of com- j
plete understanding between our
selves and Germany," Halifax told
the house of lords yesterday.
German appeasement Is perhaps
the most elusive of all the Jigsaw
pieces to be fitted Into the pattern
of a British-engineered pact to em
brace Italy, Germany, Franco and
Britain to the exclusion or Soviet
Russia.
Anna shipments Irk
But even Britain's partnership
1 with Prance and Prance's attempts to
strike a bargain with Italy were
threatened by French sympathy for
the Barcelona government and
Prance's mutunl assistance pact with
Russia,
The direct cause of the present
deadlock In French-Italian friend
ship talks wss reported to be the
eontlnued shipment of arms through
Prance to the Spanish republican
forces and an Italian demand that
Prance Bbrogate her Russian ties.
While Europe thus blossomed with
new makings of war, Mexico's Presi
dent Cardenas sought to put down
the possibility of Internal revolt sim
ilar to Spain's. Cardenas, at San Luis
Potosl, demanded that General Sa
turnlno Cedtllo. free lance strong
man, surrender his srms and his
peasant army to the government.
