Vandenberg Favors Amending Pittman Bill in Senate
A Senate debate on Pittman’s neutrality bill opens with Senator Vandenberg urging removal of the discretionary provision allowing presidential arms shipments to belligerents. He cautions post crisis moves invite misinterpretation. Others, including Borah Johnson and Pittman, weigh mandatory embargo versus broad executive discretion. Senator Thomas offers a substitute to grant broader presidential latitude while Pittman’s bill upholds a mandatory embargo with cash and carry limits.

Second Foreign Vessel Damaged By Spain Mines
Spanish mines damaged a second foreign vessel off its coast today as Spain’s government troops announced a wedge like advance into insurgent southern lines. A French steamer limped to Palamos after hitting a mine, with a British steamer last week meeting a similar fate but reaching a French port in safety. The British seek to determine who laid the mines, while government forces claim to have split the insurgent army along the south Mediterranean coast. Two retired British naval officers organize a neutrality contingent to monitor the Hispano Portuguese border to keep arms and fighters out of Spain. The coast-isolation plan faces local resistance as Valencia fears Italian and German warships patrolling the eastern coast would attack shorelines. Italy’s fascist grand council met to consider boosting war power to match Britain’s parliamentary arms plan of 7.5 billion dollars.
