Britain protests Portugal over observers suspension
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden told the House of Commons Britain protests Portugal for suspending facilities for British non intervention observers along the Spanish frontier. He said Portugal observers were withdrawn and that Britain regrets the action while seeking prompt resumption of duties if a plan for maritime control gains assent. The move could allow arms and volunteers to enter insurgent held areas in Spain and complicates efforts to restore naval patrols.
