BRITISH PARTY CHASED.
BY REBEL ’PLANES. MEMBER’S ALLEGATION. Received Janaary 25, 10.55 a.m. PARIS, Jan. 24. A member of the House of Commons (Mr William Dobbie), who is among the group of members of the British Labour Party who are returning from Spain, said that General Franco’s ’planes had been chasing the party throughout the visit. It was believed that the raid on Puigcerda was due to the belief that they might be passing through, but the frontier was crossed at a point that could not be revealed. The Government is protesting against the bombing of French territory during the Nationalist air raid on Puigcerda and is reinforcing the French frontier.
