A technical delay in signing the Spanish arms embargo may allow a large cargo of planes and arms bound for the loyalist forces to sail within 24 hours. Richard Dineley, a San Francisco dealer, said he could load shipments once Spanish officials arrive, while weather hindered their arrival from Mexico City. The measure passed the Senate 80 to 0 and the House 403 to 1 with adjournment until Friday, but lacks presidential signature due to procedural hold.
